court during the afternoon session.
He was there only a short time dur
ing the day. Tears welled into his
eyes as he heard Savage, in a voice
that expressed the whole gamut of
human emotions, demand that Jus
tice John R. Caverly imposed death
on the two slayers of his
Just before the Thursday after
noon session ended the arch-slay
ers had a brief respite from the
storm of denunciation launched ;(t
them by the forces of the prosecu
tion. This was when Savage ended
his address after having talked two
days, during which he scathingly de
nounced the two youthful defend
ants, calling them frequently “Leo
pold” and Loeb.” At no point in Ms
addreses did the prosecutor refer to
the defendants by any other term
There was a noticeable absence of
all reference to their boasted sup
er-intellectuality which had appeal
ed to their vanity earlier during the
•trial.
Walter Bachrach commenced his
argument for the defense immed
iately following Savage’s conclu
sion, and he was still speaking when
Justice Caverly ordered an adjourn
ment until this morning. In a calm
and unemotional voice, Bachrach ex
plained the .position of the defense
and sought to quell the storm creat
ed'biy the growing intensity of the
prosfecutipn’s demand for death.
“It struck me, perhaps, that our
position in this case would be mis
understood,” Bachrach began. “We
take the position that there is no
question as to the sanity of these
defendants, but that there is a medi
cal disease existing in both.
“By our plea of guilty, we ad
mitted that the defendants were
|guj.lty of murder with malace, and
IWf.Are not seeking to change that
fact. We are merely seeking to of
fer evidence in mitigation. We
want your honor to consider this
mental disease as a mitigating cii
cumstance.”
“We have not asked you to les
sen thevesponsibility of these def
endants, nor do we intend to make
such a request,” Bachrach con
tinued.

MID SUMMER WEATHER
BEING EXPERIENCED
Americus residents who fancied
Thursday was the hottest day of the
year have another guess coming.
Humidly experienced made the day
seem unusually warm, but a glance
at Observer Joe Bryan's official
thermometer dispelled the idea.
Thursday’s high was reported this
morning as 99, against 101 regis
tered earlier in the summer with
731-2 the minimum last night.
Early today the mercury was
crowding toward the top of the
tube, apparently determined to es
tablish a new record, but there is no
official information to the effect
that the effort succeeded.
Wouldn’t the world be an awful
place if the man who paints maga
