Wedding Night Traffic Sins
Forgiven in Court.
Love’s labor was not lost entirely
for Thomas Porter, 20, of 824 North
Alabama street, who today was
saved from going to prison for law
violations occurring on his wed
ding night.
Porter faced trial today before
Municipal Judge William H. Sheaf
fer on charge of drunkenness, driv

The charges are part of the story

Mary Ann Berger, 18, also of In
dianapolis.
Reaching the city limit, the auto

Good Bad Men
They Were in Old Days,

'Diamond Dick.’
Bn United Press
Norfolk. Neb., Nov. 30.
The old-time western “bad
man,” a straight-shooting outlaw,
who carved a long string of
notches on the handle of his six
shooter, had more honor than the
machine-gun gangster of this
present-day, according to Dr.
Richard Jerome Tanner.
Dr. Tanner, mild-mannered
country physician, whose deadly
marksmanship with rifle and re
volver made him the hero of the
famous "Diamond Dick” novels, a
series of western thrillers, cele
brated his sixty-third birthday
Tuesday.
Although, in fiction, “Diamond
Dick” killed scores of white men
and made many Indians “bite the
dust,” Dr. Tanner admits a peace
ful life.
“I never killed a single man.
white or Indian,’’ he declared.
“I never even hunted buffalo. But
I was a pretty good shot.
“My favorite stunt used to be
to have some man stand about
thirty paces away, and then shoot
a penny out from between his
thumb and forefinger.”

‘Com King’ Title Is at
Stake in Farm Judging
Little Gold-Painted Dais
Holds Covetous Eyes of
Mid-Westerners.
BY RAY BLACK
United Press Staff Correspondent
INTERNATIONAL AMPHITHE
ATER, STOCK YARDS, CHICAGO,
Nov. 30.—A little gold-painted wood
dais, just big enough to hold ten
ears of corn ranged side by side,
held the covetous eyes of a ring of
silent farmers at the International
Hay and Grain Show today.
The man who raises the ten ears
of corn that the judges place on
the gilded dais will be “corn king”
of North America,
In the corn belt, that title is su
preme on the farm. It means more
to the farmer in Indiana, Illinois,
lowa and the states that fringe
them to be named “corn king” than
to receive almost any other title
imaginable.
In the last thirteen years, some
Indiana farmer has won the “corn
king’s” title every year but three.
Last year the winner was Edward
N. Lux, Waldron, Ind. A brother,
Peter J. Lux, Shelbyville, Ind., has
had the grand championship corn
exhibit three times. „

Don't Coddle a
COLD!
Kill it at the First Pop
of Its Head!
The moment a cold shows, knock
it off! Don’t let it linger—and don’t
attempt to palliate it! Many rem
edies merely pamper a cold, to the
victim's regret. The only way to
deal with a cold is to kill it—as
quickly as you can!
If treated promptly—when the
sneezing or headache begins—a cold
can usually be knocked in 12 hours.
But you must get at the root of the
trouble, a germ infection within the
system. This calls, first of all, for
a COLD remedy, not a cure-all. A
preparation that's good for all kinds
of ills and ailments can’t be equally
effective for a cold. Many popular
remedies only make relief more dif
ficult because they are constipating
and also make the system acid.
A Cold is An Internal
Infection
Take a cold remedy and an IN
TERNAL one. A cold is an internal
infection and, as such, requires in
ternal treatment. Don't be fooled
by merely local or external applica
tions. They can’t reach the seat
of the trouble and they can’t stop
the spreading of the infection with
in the system. Your doctor will
tell you that.
Your doctor will also tell you
that there is nothing better you
can take for a cold than Grove’s
Laxative Bromo Quinine. Most
physicians will frankly admit they
couldn’t write a better prescription
for a cold if they wanted to. For
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
International Livestock Exposition,
are Ross Allen of Salem, W. Va.,
and Dorothy Eiler of Hill City,
Minn.
The term “boy champion” is
somewhat of a misnomer for Allen.
He is 20 years old. a senior in col
lege, and weighs 184’£ pounds. Miss
Eiler is 16 and weighs 126. Both
are almost perfect physically. Al
len scored 99.4 points out of a pos
sible 100. Miss Eiler scored 98.6.

ford steer from the land of the

the triumph supreme among stock
men.
The winner, weighing 1,241
pounds, broke many precedents. It
was one of the few Herefords who
have won the grand championship
at the stock show, and one of the
few from the cattle country of the
old west.
GET UNEXPECTED FEAST
Unemployed Help Selves as 67 Sheep
Die in Train Wreck.
Bn United Press
KISKI JUNCTION, Pa., Nov. 30.
—A train wreck solved the food
problem for unemployed in this dis
trict, at least temporarily. Six cars
of a livestock train were derailed,
killing sixty-seven sheep. There
was no interference as needy per
sons helped themselves to the mut
ton, it was reported.
An infusion of wild cherry bark
was an old Indian remedy for pain
in the chest.
Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine
does the several things necessary
to rout a cold, in the way that is
necessary.
First, it gently, but thoroughly,
opens the bow r els—the first require
ment in overcoming a cold. Second,
it kills the cold germs in the sys
tem, drives out the poisonous in
fection and reduces the fever.
Third, it relieves the headache and
that grippy feeling. Fourth, it tones
the entire system and fortifigs
against further attack.
That is the treatment you want
for a cold and, for your- own safety,
be satisfied with nothing less!
Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine
may be tiken with utter safety by
young and old. It contains no nar
cotics and produces no bad after
effects. It does not upset the
stomach, nauseate or make the head
ring or swam. In virtually every
c . ntry in the world it is the ac
cepted cold remedy.
The “Stitch in Tjme”
In dainty tablet form. Grove’s
Laxative Bromo Quinine is conven
ient Snd pleasant to take, as
as effective. It comes in handy,
pocket size boxes, cellophane-
WTapped, and is sold by every drug
store in America. When you feel a
cold coming on, take Grove's Lax
ative Bromo Quinine at once. There
is no better remedy for a cold and
no reliable dealer will try to tell
you there is.—Advertisement.
EXTEND SCHOOL

PUDLIC BUILDING!
BY BOND ISSUES
TO BE URGED
Roosevelt Favors" Method
Over Present Policy of
Quick Payment.
By Scripps-Hotcard Xewspnper Alliance j
WARM SPRINGS, Ga., Nov. 30.
President - Elect Franklin D.
Roosevelt has evolved a system of
balancing the budget by paying for
past public projects, such as dams,
irrigation, battleships, public build
ings and other federal undertakings,
with bond issues rather than outl
of current government, income.
Although he had planned to with
hold announcement of the plan
until his inaugural address, it was
learned today that he has discussed
it with numerous visitors, in order
to get their reaction.
Already, several chairmen of;
prominent congressional committees j
have expressed their approval of j
this method of financing.
It is an old scheme as rpplied to
municipal projects, but new as to
the federal financial scheme.
The philosophy behind it is that,
in these hard times, the present i
generation should not be saddled
with the complete costs of improve
ments which will last for many gen
erations.
Although the detailed charge to
be withdrawn from current budgets
by this method is now known, it is
understood it w'ill run into several
hundred millions of dollars.
If this estimate is borne out, the
incoming administration may find ,
itself able to balance the budget j
through revenue from beer, econo
mies and deferment of long-time
costs.
This system of deferring costs
could be applied to public buildings
and even to vast road networks un
dertaken in an effort to decrease
unemployment.
The total cost, including interest,
would be larger under the Roosevelt
program, but it would fit in better
with the present financial condition
of the treasury.
This method can be made retro
active—and that is the essence of
the program as it involves next
year’s budget. Funds for Hoover
dam, and similar projects have been
authorized but not appropriated.
