Knife to Save
Beauty of Car
Crash Victim
Roberta Trimble Undergoes
Operation to Remove Scars
Suffered in Accident Fol
lowing Ak-Sar-Ben Ball.
Surgery wag resorted to Saturday
morning in an attempt to preserve
the beauty of Roberta Tt Imble, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Trimble,
106 South Fifty-fifth street, and popu
lar Omaha society girl, whose face
was deeply cut when her car over
i turned at 2 a. in. at Thirty-third street
i and Bedford avenue.
| . Miss Trimble's injuries are not se
^*-rlous, according to Dr. E. C. Henry,
! her attending physician. Ben Cotton,
jr., and Baldwin Sinclair, who were
I riding in the car with her, were only
slightly cut and bruised.
Miss Trimble was cut deeply above
the right eye and on the neck. Dr.
| Henry performed an operation at 10
a. m. Saturday in an attempt to avoid
permanent scars following the in
j juries. He expressed doubt, however,
whether the scars would disappear
completely.
Forced Into Ditch.
Miss Trimble's car was overturned
when she was forced Into a ditch by
blinding headlights on a passing car.
Her car rolled over twice. She and
her two companions were able to
walk to Swedish Mission hospital,
where it was first believed that she
might have been injured internally.
! A later examination did not confirm
this fear, however, and attendants
| said she was resting easily Saturday
morning.
Miss Trimble and her companions
had been riding following the Ak-Sar
Ben ball.
Recalls Hoagland Crash.
Miss Trimble's Injury is similar to
that of Miss Helen Hoagland, sister
of the new queen of Ak-Sar-Ben, who
was seriously injured in an automo
bile accident in November, 1922. Miss
Trimble suffered a gash above the eye
as did Miss Hoagland. The accldenu
In which Miss Hoagland was injured
was also at night, but on a dark road
near Tekamah, Neb.
Miss Hoagland was driving with '
Mr. and Mrs. William Latta and Eli! I
son Vlnsonhaler. Vlnsonhaler was
killed instantly.
The Lattas escaped serious hurls,
j but Miss Hoagland for many weeks
lay In the hospital in Tekamah. Since
her recovery Miss Hoagland has sub
mitted to several operations for plas
tic surgery at St. Louis.

Save Norton! Cry
of Demo Leaders
Throw Everything Else Over*
board. Becomes Eleventh
Hour Slogan.
"Savo Norton—throw everything
else overboard.” This is the slogan
of democratic leaders in Nebraska.
Word has been received In Omaha
that confidential polls taken by the
democratic national committee have
revealed Davis as running third in
this state. The campaign of Thomas
for United States senator haR flat
tened out. The result is a last min
ute desperate effort to save some
thing out of the wreck, therefore
the concentration on Norton.
Trades will be worked out chiefly
with the Lit Follette forces In an
effort to accomplish this result.
I-ast Minute Trades.
The Ua Follette leaders believe that
if at the last minute they can work
out trades of this character they can
overcome the lead of President Cool
idge in Nebraska and carry the state
for the WisOonsdn senator. They
are therefore “open for trades.''
Socialist leaders In Nebraska, as in
all other state* are taking a promi
nent part in this trading scheme. The
socallst following in Nebraska is
neglglble hut they have some astute
leaders who understand the art of
trading. So long as these socialist
leaders were working within the
ranks of their own small numbers
they were not able to accomplish
much. Under present conditions, how
ever, where they have at their hands
both the La Follette and the demo
cratic supporters their efforts are
said to be proving effective.
Neither democratic nor republican
leaders In Omaha would discuss the
latest strategy of the democrats in
co-operation with the La Follette and
socialist followers but It was privately
admitted that such a campaign of
trading to save Norton was under
way.
Davis Is Third.
The private polls of the democratic
national committee support the straw
votes being taken hy magazines and
newspaper* in various sections of the
country. The chief of these straw
votes Is that of the Literary-Digest
which reveals Davis as third in every
state except the "solid south.” Even
the straw vote being taken by the
Hearst. newspapers which are favor
able to I-ji Kollette nnd which natur
ally get a majority of I at Kollette
votes in their poll, shows Davis run
ning third.
Ail of this evidence has resulted in
the program of Nebraska democrats
to let the Davis nnd Thomas ships
drift and center their attention on
Norton.
Counter moves on the part of re
publican strategists are being worked
out.
SECOND DAIRY
TRAIN PLANNED
A second dairy train will leave
Omaha Monday, sponsored by the
Dairy Development society, to tour
30 counties in Neb-aska. Purebred
hulls will he carried on the train and
will he traded to farmers for "scrub"
hulls, said John W. Glllan of the
Chandler of Commerce, who will leave
for Seward and York on the train
Monday.
