. San Diego, April 14. In a gaso
line explosion which sent a torch of
flame 100 feet into the air, 10 men
were burned, two probably fatally,
on the United States submarine
chaser No. 297 at the Municipal pier
here today, , All but one of the men
were attached to the craft. The
tenth was driver of an oil truck from
. which . gasoline was being pumped
into a 660-gallon storage tank on
the chaser. The list of injured fol

Cocoanut Oil Fine
? For Washing Hair
. : If you want to keep your hair in
?ood condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
isjrery harmful. Just plain mulsif ied
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en
tirely greaseless) is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
' this can't possibly injure the hair.'
- Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
' hair and scalp thoroughly. The lath
er rinses out easily, and removes
avery particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. It is very
cheap and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months. Adv. .

He has summed up the differences
in a paragraph which is before the
body for adoption. ,
"Is the first presidency the chief
executive quorum of the church or
is it not?" he challenges. If we are
to enter upon the enlarged oppor

more emphasis upon the work of

LAWYER FROM
OMAHA OFFICER
ON RUSS FRONT
Albert E. May First Lieuten
ant in Company That
Refused to Fight ,
at Archangel.
Albert E.. May, senior first lieu
tenant of Company I of the 339th
infantry, the unit which refused re
cently to return to the front line
trenches in the Archangel , sector
when ordered by its officers, is an
Omaha attorney and has a wide cir
cle of friends in this city.
He is widely known here as "Fat"
May.
Lieutenant May was a member of
the firm of Newkirk & May, Keeline
building, and' in the surinK of 1916
was an unsuccessful candidate- fc
the democratic legislative nomina
tion. He graduated in law at the
University of Nebraska in the" class
of 1915. Lieutenant May was born
and raised in York, Neb., but has
made Omaha his . home, since his
graduation from the university;. He
went to the second officers' training
camp -at Fort Snelling in August,
1917, and was a visitor in Omaha
last July. The latter part of the
same month he went overseas com
missioned as first lieutenant of his
company.,
Says Low Type Men.
David W. Swarr, an attorney in
the Keeline building, was a class
mate at college of Lieutenant May
and hears from him frequently. "He
has told me and written me," said
Mr. Swarr, "that the men of his
company "almost ' exclusively were
foreigners and most of them came
from Russia. They are a very
ignorant class and some of them do
not even know their own names,"
Mr. swarr declared he had been told
by Lieutenant May.
This is in keeping with the sup
plementary report of the mutiny in
cident, which called attention to the
fact that the questions put by the
men of the company when they re
fused to go to the front were identi
cal with those of bolshevik propa
ganda. 1 What March Said.
"In my long service," General
March said, "I do not recall an
other instance where American sol
diers did not want to go into the
fight. They always said 'Lead us
to it.' "
May writes that his men are good
fighters and strong in 'body, but
most of them know but little or
nothing about the institutions and
traditions of this country. He says
the fighting in the Archangel is not
so severe as the weather conditions
are. There is very little daylight
there now, this together with the
extreme cold weather is depressing,
it is said. He writes that it is neces
sary to drink lime juice to prevent
the scurvy, the common disease of
the north.
Lieutenant May is a garduate of
the York high school and dis
tinguished himself as the school's
quarterback on the foot ball team.
Reds and Loyal Troops

Berlin, April 14. (By The Asso
ciated Press.) The latest news re
ceived here is to the effect that the
communists in Munich have not yet
been mastered and that heavy fight
ing is raging in the streets of .Mu
nich between Red Guards and troops
loyal to the government.
The central railway stati'on, the
postoft'ice and telegraph office and
several other public buildings again
are in the hands of the communists
who used mine throwers in their re

New York, April 14. With a regi
mental record- of the capture of

the 332d infantry, the only American
unit to see service on the Italian
front, landed today- from the Duca

AT THE
THEATERS
0
NCE in a great while between
lingerie farces and mediocre
dramas comes a play that lives
in the memory. Such is "Old Lady
31" which comes to Boyd's theater
for four days starting next Sunday
nigh. That it comes here with
practically the original company ac
counts tor the tact that tne west nas
not seen it before. "Old Lady 31"
is the most successful work of
Rachel Crothers, the best known
woman dramatist of the day. With
its principal scenes laid in an old
ladies' h6r, the comedy atmos
phere may well be imagined. While
many of the characters are people
well advanced in years, the play fair
ly bubbles over with the spirit of
youth and hope. Heading what, is
claimed to be a perfect cast of
character actors is Effie Ellsler,
who made "Hazel Kirke" famous.
Supporting her are Scott Cooper,
Vivia Ogden, Mrs. Felix Morris,
Maud Sinclair, Kate Jepsen, May
Galyer. Hazel Sexton, Irving
Mitchell, Louis Fierce, James Nel
son Lottie ;hurch, Elizabeth Le
Roy, Mrs. Lettie Ford and Clara
Coleman.
At the Orpheum last evening the
immense society night audience
showed demonstrative appreciation
for the lively ' bill of this week,
which has two stellar attractions.
One of them is the musical allegory,
"The Heart - of Annie Wood," a
jleasing fantasy elaborated with
song and dance numbers. Another
headline feature is the hilarious one
act farce, "Prevarication," amusing
ly presented with Bert-Baker in the
leading role. Four Canadian sol
diers, wounded in battle on the
French and Flanders fronts, offer an
entertaining skit called "A Night in
Billet."
"The Common Cause," according
to Manager Sutphen of the-Brandeis
theater, has well btfen called the
story with a laugh, a thrill and a
throb It was made under the aus
pices of and with the full co-operation
of the British-Canadian recruit
ing mission. "The Common Cause"
is now playing at the Brandeis
theater.
Unlike many famous artists, Mis
cha Elman, the violinist who will
play here on Thursday evening at
the Brandeis theater, does not travel
surrounded by a secretary, valet,
manager, interpreter, ten trunks and
heaven knows what else. His bag
gage consists of two huge suit cases
and a violin case, and Mr. Banime,
his accompanist, is his sole travel
ing companion, for the young Rus
sian is well able to look out for(
himself.
As a character study "Mickey,"
which will be shown at the Brandeis
theater beginning Friday, is a real
work of art. Miss Normand is air
ways a charming comedienne, but she
is at her very best in this part, told
without squash pies, battles or the
seduction of the innocent heroine.

Levin Sues to Recover
Possession of Ring
He Says He Loaned
Frank Levin, veteran cigar manu
facturer, began a suit in district
court yesterday in Council Bluffs to
recover a $200 diamondVing, which
he had permitted to be used for
many years to brighten the life of
Miss Ruth Williams, paralytic
daughter ot Mr. and Mrs. N. W,
Williams.
In his suit Levin says that a . num
ber of years ago the helplessly crip
pled daughter, whose only means of
locomotion was a wheeled chair,
had expressed a desire to have a
diamond ring on her finger. The
parents, he says in his court plea,
were financially unable to gratify
her wish, and he voluntarily offered
the use of the ring. There was ver
bal agreement that the parents
were to return the ring upon the
death of the invalid and Levin was
then to return $55 without interest,
which Williams advanced as a con
sideration for the favor. Miss Will
iams died April 7, and Levin says
the parents have refused to return
the ring or accept the proffered $55.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams and their
daughter, Emma Avery, are named
as defendants in the replevin action.

"A constant 'hiker' over all con

on my feet until I discovered Neolin
Soles. And as for wear! Neolin
Soles give twice the service of soles I
formerly used," writes H. Noyes
Collinson, Hazelton, Pa.
This long service means sharp re
ductions in those big shoe bills, for it
is because of worn out soles that most
shoes are discarded. Buy Neolin
soled shoes, not only for yourself, but
for the whole family, children in
cluded. Also, take your old shoes
to the repairman and have them re
bottomed with Neolin Soles.
Remember Neolin Soles are water
proof, as well as comfortable and long
wearing. They are created by Science
to be all that soles should be, and are
made by The Goodyear Tire & Rub
