Cupid Wins by an I-Lash Don Lash, famed University garet Mendenhall, of Pendleton, to the altar June 18. Don, shown fiancee's neck, planned to wed in Princeton's Palmer stadium, the ceremony after the Princeton MRS. MOODY THIRD IN ODDS AT WIMBLEDON WIMBLEDON, June (P)- Jadwiga "Ja-Ja" Jedrzejowska, her magnificent forehand stronger and faster than ever, today became cofavorite with Alice Marble for the women's singles title in the Wimbledon tennis championships starting on Monday. The Polish champion polished off Mme. Hilda Krahwinkel Sperling of Germany, the conqueror of Helen Wills Moody, 6-3, 6-0, to win the London lawn' tennis title.

She immediately jumped to 3-1 alongside Marble. Mrs. Moody remained at 4 to 1, safe in the realization that she will not have to meet either Miss Marble or Mlle. Jedrzejowska until the finals. Mme.

Sperling, who is in Mrs. Moody's half of the draw, was utterly helpless today and, despite her victory over Mrs. Moody, nobody is giving her a chance to beat Helen again. Mrs. Moody won the championship in 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1932, 1933, and 1935.

Probably the only other player capable of dreaming such a record today is Don Budge, who holds three Wimbledon titles singles, doubles, ands mixed doubles- at present SO outstanding this season that nobody is paying much attention to him. Budge, at 22 years of age, is without a rival in the amateur ranks today and undoubtedly could stay at the top at least through his twenties. But it is generally conceded that his attempt to win the four international championships, Australian, French, British, and American, this year is but a prelude to his turning professional next winter. Anyway, there's a feeling here that the center court will be seeing him for the last time in the championships next week. Connersville Man Held for Alleged Mann Act Violation CONNERSVILLE.

June 18. -Walter Dolan, 29 years old, Connersville, was taken to Indianapolis this morning by a U. S. deputy marshal where he will face a charge of violation of the Mann act in federal court. He was arrested in connection with the disappearance of a 15- year-old Connersville girl.

Dolan was arrested Friday morning at the home of a relative near Glenwood where he and the girl had fled. The girl disappeared from her home the latter part of April and it was reported then that she had left the city with Dolan, who had been sought since that time. The girl, who was with him when he was taken into custody Friday morning, was returned to her home here. Officers said that Dolan exhibited a marriage license which he said the couple procured in Covington, Ky. Officers said that Dolan told them that he and the girl had been in Virginia, Ohio, and Kentucky since leaving here and that they had gone to the Ludlow home in a taxicab from Brookville.

It was said they had been in Richmond part of the time since leaving Connersville. of Indiana two-miler, and Miss get on their marks for a sprint placing a racing trophy about his her after he finishes his two-mile run going right on to New York City for Invitation Track meet.

F. W. Event at Kokomo KOKOMO, June Members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars moved today toward the election of officers at their annual convention with the contest apparently centering between Joseph Craft of Michigan City and Hershell Griffith of Hammond. The veterans held their annual parade last night through gailydecorated streets. Fort Wayne, Indianapolis, and Lafayette grabbed off the top prizes in band and drum corps competition.

Fort Wayne won first in the senior drum corps and junior band contests. Indianapolis was first in the junior corps competition and the Jefferson High school of Lafayette band won a special prize awarded for the best band parade but not competing in the other contests. Elkhart was second and Liberty third in the senior drum corps. Elkhart was second in the junior band contest, and in the junior drum corps competition South Bend was second and Fort Wayne third. The veterans, in resolutions today, expressed opposition to any attempt to consolidate the Veterans' administration with any other department or agency of the federal government and called for "the eradication of alien groups and activities."

UNSER WALTERMANN -HOME FOR FUNERALS- 32 South Eleventh St. Phone 2175 LADY ASSISTANT AMBULANCE DEATHS and FUNERALS Selling Prominent in Wheat Market Deals at Chicago CHICAGO, June some of which was attributed to eastern sources and some to profit taking and hedging operations, predominated in today's wheat trade, pushing prices down further about 2 cents a bushel.

Pessimistic crop news from the Southwest had little effect and was offset by reports of favorable growconditions in the spring wheat belt both sides of the Canadian border. Export business was dull. The Kansas City and Minneapolis markets led the decline in domestic prices. Wheat closed 11 cents to cents below yesterday's finish, July 767 cents to cents, September 773 cents to 777 cents, and corn was 1 cent up to cent down, July 572 cents to 571 cents, September 583 cents to 587 cents. Oats were unchanged to 2 cent off.

More pessimistic crop reports were received, including finding of rust spores in the air at Winnipeg, but observers said the price upturn apparently discounted deterioration reported since June 1. With the market overbought, week-end profit taking and some hedging contributed to the decline which put July wheat as low as 771 cents. A drop of about 2 cents at Kansas City also was a factor here.

(AP) Selected stocks, with coppers in the lead, edged forward today, but numerous market issues inclined to lag. Boardrooms lacked their usual quota of customers, many absenting themselves for an extended week-end holiday, those who attended discovered little in the overnight news to inspire them in any expansion of commitments either way.

The result was that volume dwindled further after a slow opening, with transfers for the session approximating 110,000 shares. Trade developments were better in spots, and the gloom seemed to have lessened somewhat in the financial sector, but speculative contingents continued to maintain a "show-me" attitude while awaiting more definite signs of a reversal in the recessionary trend. Oils Resistant Oils were fairly resistant as midcontinent refiners raised gasoline of a cent a gallon, the second boost in two weeks, and Texas officials advanced the belief overproduction was now under control. Among the favored stocks were Anaconda, Kennecott, Cerro de Pasco, American Smelting, Goodyear, Douglas Aircraft, United Aircraft, Standard Oil of New Jersey, Allied Chemical, Westinghouse, U. S.

Gypsum, Santa Fe, American Telephone, and North American. Goodrich preferred hit a new low for the year with a loss of about four points following omission of the dividend on this issue.
