BROADWAY LS
CALLING PRINCE
(Vales Planning To Invade
“Roaring Forties” Before
Leaving U. S.
BY EARL L. SHAUB,
Universal Servics Correspondent.
New York, SepL ...—The bright
lights of Broadway are beckoning to
the Prince of Wales and he is feel
ing their lure.
This became known Friday when it
was revealed that ho is planning a (
midnight tour of the “Roaring For
ties” and the “Frantic Fifties" and
has gone so far in his plans that he
has sent an aide to complete the ar
rangements.
At least one popular cabaret queen
has been told the prince wishes t«
sec her perform and will make a spe
cial trip to town before his departure
to Canada, September 14. It is re
ported he has expressed a desire to
witness several Broadway produc
tions.
After Bleeping until 1 o’clock Fri
day, the prince engaged in a game
of polo and was caught In a thunder
shower.
Danced All Night.
His late awakening was due to the
fact that he spent last night as he
chose—dancing. He danced with at
least 17 American girls. As on an
other occasion since he came here,
dawn was approaching when he de
cided to call it a day and turn in.
More than 1,000 persons braved a
chilling rain to watch the prince play
polo at Grace Field Friday afternoon.
The match was close the score being
8 to 7 in favor of Wales’ team.
After the game the British heir
returned to the Burden home at
Syosset, encountering on the way a
heavy downpour of rain that before
came a regular cloudburst. His car
was forced to slow down to 18 miles
an hour because fast driving was im
possible on the slippery roads.
The royal visitor changed horses
after each chukker. Several times he
was loudly applaudod when he pre
vented the opposition from scoring.
He was shown no favors in the game
and more than once was roughly
handled in the scrimmages.
When the British and American
polo teams meet Saturday Eric Ped
ley, whom experts without prejudice
consider the greatest polo player this
country ever saw, will be sitting on
the side lines unless one of the reg
ular players is injured.
And the reason for this is that
Pedley’s name does not appear la
the New York social register. Ho is
considered the greatest all around
athlete the Pacific coast ever pro
duced. v
But he has no ancestral palaces
with gilded halls. He doesn’t own
racing stables and luxurious yachts.
So he will not be In the regular silk
stocking team.
CAVERLY WISHES
JURY HAD HEARD
LEOPOLD TRIAL
Universal Service.
Chicago, Sept. ' —Judge John It~
Caverly admitted Friday that he had
not reached a decision In the case of
Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb,
slayers of Robert Franks. He must
decide the fate of the slayers by
September 10.
"I wish this case had gone to a
Jury,” he said. "It Is too much for
one man to decide. When I have
read the sentence I shall make a plea
that a law be enacted requiring throe
judges to sit In all capital cases
where a plea of guilty Is entered.”
Judge Caverly may be unable to
reach a decision. In that case he
would have It within his power to
order the plea of guilty withdrawn
and submit the case to a Jury.

Those Darned Censors Take Joy Out Of
Life For 50,000 At Bathing Beauty Show
Atlantic City, N. J. Sept. .'-—The
most beautiful young women In the
land paraded Friday in bathing suits
before more than 60,000 enthusiastic
male admirers but there was a fly
in the ointment. The bathing suits
were censored.
Reform organizations throughout
the land, it seems, have mailed, wired
and sent protesting committees to
prevent a parade in the one piece, al
most transparent silk bathing sultB
in which they were judged. They
called attention of the Atlantic City
police to local ordinances requiring
modest suits.
Consequently when the beauties
paraded they wore two pieces suits
or else wore slips to serve as screens
where the bathing suits were in
sufficient.
Nevertheless before the newspaper
men and Judges in the high school,
the girls appeared for their semifinal
selections in their scanty suits. Ths
artists in ths Judge's commutes
selected five young women from each
geographical group and awarded
prizes. Later they selected one girl
from each of these five groups. Ths
names of these five from whom, with
Miss Catherine Campbell of Colum
bus, Ohio—the Miss America of 1923
—will be selected Saturday afternoon
the "Miss America of 1924." The
names of these five girls were not
given out.
There is a strong feeling I hat Miss
Campbell may be declared the most
beautiful girl In America for the third
time. Should she win the choice she
will become permanent owner of ths
15,000 gold mermaid now in her pos
session.
The silver seashell for outstanding
amateur beauty was won by Miss
Lillian Mae Erbe, of Philadelphia.
Miss Margaret Gorman, the "Miss
America" of 1921, took second prize.

"When 1 surprised them they were
giving a prenuptial party. They had
announced their Intention of living in
Paris.”
In the divorce suit, Mrs. Plata
sought to enjoin her husband from
withdrawing any of his funds from
Chicago banks. He is Raid to have
offered to turn over his share of the
Plata estate in Peru to Mrs. Plata

I lost considerable weight and that
tired, drnggy feeling was on me all
