"He gave me Instructions to take
the jewels and money to o phone

Richter related. "I told him the
most I could raise was about $15,
090 in jewels and $200 in cash. He
said that would do."
Richter went to the hotel and
waited in the booth. A bellboy told
him he was wanted on the phone
at the desk and the same man who
had called earlier told him to put

Richter was still a step ahead
of detectives, who were being
briefed at the store by his brother,
Alvin Richter.
The father rushed to the bus sta

and since the designated phone
booth was being used, placed the

Seven Students
Jailed In Tumult
After Election
SEATTLE Wl A post-election,
disturbance, in which big midnight
bonfires burned on the University
of Washington's "Greek Row,
sent seven students to jail early
Friday. At least 400 men and wom
en co-eds milled about the bonfires.
The students, all men, were
booked on charges of disorderly
conduct and bail was set at $100
each. .
The disturbance began 10 min
utes before midnight when the
first fire was set. Another was
started a half hour later; and a
third one at 1:30 a.m. A dozen or
more smaller fires were also set.
Earlier in the evening, the re
sults of the Associated Students'
election had been announced. A
University Daily staff member and
journalism student, F. M. (Spud)
Bunker, who had never before run
for office, was elected president
after colorful campaigning.
Half a dozen police prowler cars
went to "Greek Row" to control
the crowd which flocked out of
fraternity and sorority houses.
Nails and boards were scattered
in the street. . .

the extortionists slipped into the
other, around a come-, and took
the key.
When police reinforcements ar
rived, the key was gone, the lock
er was open and the key was in
it, still sticky with chewing gum.
About the time Richter returned
to his store, a puzzled doctor at
the hospital called and asked if he
had a son, Ricky. The boy was at
the hospital and the cab driver
was waiting for his fare.
Richter said the whole sequence
of events took about an hour.
Truman Stirs Editors
With Seizure Claim
(Continued from Page One)
American Society of Newspaper
Editors (ASNE), many of whom
were at the news conference
ranged from cries ol dictatorship
to belief the answer was merely
unfortunate.
Highlights of Truman's answers
to other questions:
1. "1 have tried my best to give
the nation everything I had in me.
There are a great many people
that, probably a million people,
who could have done the job better
than I did it but I had the job
and I had to do it and I always
quote an epitaph on a tombstone
in a cemetery in Tombstone, Ariz.:
"Here lies Jack Williams. He
done his damnedest,"
"I think that is the greatest
epitaph a man can have."
(Tne President departed from
custom by permitting theabove to
be quoted directly).
2. If the Russians really want
peace, they would sign an Austrian
peace treaty and agree to the U.S.
plan for limitation of armaments.
3. The great mid-west floods
could have been prevented if the
Pick-Sloan flood control plan for
the area had been put into effect.
Truman said governors of the
flooded states had been dragging
their feet for 25 years.
4. He laughingly knocked down a
rumor he might teach history at
the University of North Carolina
after he retires. He said as an ex
president he would be glad to give
the country the benefit of his ex
perience, as ex-president Hoover
has done.

The Rahway convicts hung huge
bedsheet signs out the shattered
windows Friday morning, with
crude black lettering:
"We want a new parole system,"
one sign said. "Tell the truth, we
have radios in here."
"The parole board isn't fair. We
want a change."
A prison source said the em
battled convicts listened to news
broadcasts of the riots on tiny
crystal set radios they fashioned
out of magnetaed steel and tin to
bacco cans.
As a crisp spring dawn paled the
searchlights trained on the mas
sive stone walls of the dormitory
wing, the prisoners inside set up
a wild chorus of catcalls, jeers
and whistles.

If your house was built before 1929
your wiring may not be adequate for 1951
OS"
The single drop-cord from the ceUing ... an outlet in the kitchen . . .
we all remember how little electricity was used for lighting or labor-saving
in 1929. And the wiring was planned for this limited use. Today, in
1951, the picture has changed. Better lighting, labor-saving appliances,
new conveniences, and comforts . . . even your entertainment is now
electrical. More are being added every day. These additions
demand more outlets, more circuits, and heavier wire to bring all
this extra electricity into your home. When you build or remodel . . .
be sure the plans include wiring that is adequate ... for 1951.
