ENTERTAINS AT THEATRE PARTY
From Saturday's Dny
Last evening Mrs. Golda Noble
Heal entertained a few friends at a
very delightful theatre party in honor
of Mrs. Allen J. Beeson of Long
Beach, California, who is here to
enjoy a visit with the old friends and

also an honor guest. The members
of the party enjoyed the very clever

CATCH CAR THIEVES
Walter Lemmer and Peter Schultz,
two Omaha young men, are languish
ing in the city jail at the end of
their short joy ride yesterday in the
Chevrolet coach, identified as the
property of Arthur Catcher of Oma
ha.
The two young men became in
volved in the hands of the law yes
terday afternoon when they called
the chief of police to get their car
pulled out of a ditch near the Ne
braska Masonic Home, the young
men thinking that the police de
partment was provided with an emer
gency car to handle wrecked cars as
at Omaha.
Chief of Police Johnson responded
to the call however, and was told by
the parties that the car was one
rented from the Central Chevrolet
Co., at Omaha and this story did not
sound just like truth to the chief
and after he had Frank Kozak pull
the car out of the ditch by aid of his
team, the chief called the auto com
pmy in Omaha and found that they
did not rent cars and they ascertain
ed for the chief that the car in ques
tion was the property of Arthur
Catcher and had bene taken without
his knowledge.
The two men were placed in the
jail and the-car held here for the
nrrival of the owner and the claim
inc of the car- and the men will
probably be turned over to the Oma
ha police for their offense.

Estimates Vary
Approximately Twenty Dead; Six
Are .Known Dead and Six
teen Missing.
Rockford. 111., Sept. 14. Approxi
mately 20 persons were killed this
afternoon when a tornado struck!
Rockford. Nearly all of the 113'
workers in factory B of the Rockford
Chair and Furniture company were
caught under tons of debris when
the storm, sweeping in from the
southwest, tore away the roof and,
hurled down the walls of the build-'
ing. But most of them got out alive.
A total of six persons are known .
to have lost their lives in the city. J
One workman is known to have been
killed in the factory's crash, and 16
were reported missing late tonight.
A check up of the company's pay
rolls showed that the other 96 men
had escaped the falling structure
and .were in hospitals or at their
homes.
' Seven Bodies Recovered.
Rockford. III., Sept. 14. Esti
mates of the number of persons kill
ed by a tornado that struck the
southeastern portion of Rockford
late today were all that could be
gleaned from the confusion and dark
ness that followed the demolition
of scores of buildings, including sev
eral factories. Only seven bodies had
been collected six hours after the
storm struck, while 125 were re
ported injured at hospitals, besides
those les9 severely hurt.
Coroner Fred C. Olson said that
50 to une hundred were buried in
the chair factory of the Rockford
Cabinet company, while searchers
delving in the debris of that factory
asserted that 20 to 25 were dead in
the ruins. First reports were that
most of the hundred buried in the'
collapsed factory were killed or se
verely hurt.
Children in Path.
Among the wrecked plants are the
Elco Tool company. Union Furniture
Co., Mechanics Machine company
and chair factory "B" of the Rock
ford Chair company.
Nearly one thousand school chil
dren were in three grade school
buildings that are within an area
not more than a block and a half
from the swath cut by the tornado,
Frantic mothers rushed through the
streets searching for their children
after the storm had spent its fury.
Though complete estimates are im
possible the damage to factories is
conservatively put at more than a
million dollars. About one thousand

It was through determination and
hard study that he was able to suc

South Pole Expedition.
Not only the success of this great pioneering
adventure, but the lives of the men depend on the
proper selection of supplies, material and equip

observed in deciding what equipment shall be used.
The many outstanding advantages that gave the
Maytag world leadership, enabled it to meet the
exacting standards demanded by Commander Byrd.
The noteworthy tribute of being selected for the Byrd
