ALY KHAN BREAKS
BONE IN ANKLE
CANNES, France, (/P) — Prince
Aly Khan has broken a bone in
his left ankle, and as a result his
wedding to Rita Heyworth may
have to be postponed a month.
Friends say Aly was playing
with his children at a party in his
Riviera home Saturday when the
I accident happened. At first the an
! kle was just bandaged and Aly
i paid little attention to it.
i .French law makes Aly eligible
for the hand of Miss Heyworth
, May 7, one month from the day
he was divorced by his British
wife.
U. S. Court Upholds
< Conviction Of Red
Gerhard Eisler
WASHINGTON, {&)—'The U. S.
court of appeals today upheld the
conviction of Gerhard Eisler, Ger
man-born communist, on passport
, fraud charges.
■ Eisler, described as “America’s
No. 1 communist” by the House
committee on un-American activ
ities, was convicted in federal dis
trict court Aug. 15, 1947. He was
sentenced to serve one to three
I years.
' By a 2 to 1 vote the appeals
1 court turned down Eisler’s con
tention that the district court lack
ed jurisdiction because he filled
j out the application for an exit visa
in New York and merely mailed
i it to the state department.
The passport fraud case was the
1 second conviction for the squat
bespectacled German-born com
munist. In June, 1947, he was con
victed of contempt of Congress
for refusing to be sworn for tes
timony before the House commit
tee.
The appeals court also sustained
his conviction and sentence of a
year in jail and $1,000 fine in that
case. An appeal was taken to the
Supreme Court, which held oral
arguments in the contempt case
three weeks ago.

Destroys School
■ ■■■——
SEATTLE, (j*P) — Fire, coupled
with an explosion of an oil fur
‘ nace, destroyed the half-block
long exclusive Helen Bush school
early yesterday. There were no in
juries.
I Sixteen children occupying the
! adjacent “lower school dormi
tory” reserved for the second
, through sixth grades were moved
j into a neighbor’s home during the
| fire but were later returned to the;
1 dormitory.
1 Origin of the blaze was not
known.
The first alarm was given at
4:40 a.m. But as trucks arrived at
the scene firemen were greeted by
an explosion of the oil furnace in I
the basement of the rambling
frame building. A second and
third alarm followed shortly.
None of the three dormitories
housing some 50 of the school’s
300 students was damaged.
Fire chief William Fitzgerald es
timated damage at about $25,000.
MAN HAPPY NOW; TOMB
STONE WILL COME DOWN
RALEIGH, N. C. (JP), Old Hamp ;
Kendall, who served time for a .
crime he didn’t commit, can rest
easy now.
That tombstone that’s troubled
him all these years will have to
come down.
About the turn of the century \
the aged recluse was convicted of J
killing Lawrence Nelson near Le
nor. and spent almost ten years in
1 prison for the crime.
Later he was found innocent and
, pardoned, and ever since he’s had
a hankering to have the tombstone
1 removed from Nelson’s grave.
The marker says that Nelson
was “robbed and murdered by
Hamp Kendall.”

Ninety 111 From
Government Smog
DONORA, Pa. (/P)—More than
90 persons were ill today and a
dozen others had left town as gov
ernment experts tried to duplicate
smog conditions suspected of caus
ing 22 deaths last fall.
Doctors reported numerous
cases of hoarsenss, sore throats
and coughs as the public health
service sought for the third day to
determine if the suffocation cases
last October were caused by a
combination of smoke and fog.
Through the tests, the govern
ment agency hopes to prevent a
recurrence of the October tragedy.
As a result of the deaths last
fall the zinc smelters of American
Steel & Wire Co. were operated at
limited capacity. They were re
oponed last Monday so that result
ing fumes could be obesrved in
connection with the tests.
