Earl Carroll has been trying' for two seasons to obtain the services of Ana Corio, who heads the cast of the all-new edition of "Girls in Blue," now at Empress Theater. Car roll on several occasions has "propositioned" Miss Corio to join his Vanities" with the offer of a fea tured role, but Miss Corio, although only 20, has "played square" with President I. H. Herk, of the Mutual, who discovered and developed her into a star, and to whom she is still under contract, and has invariably refused the offers of Carroll and several other Gotham impresarios. uv Ancestors By FRANCES M.

SMITH (Eleanor Lexington). Todd Family ODDSBURG, in Gloucester County, Virginia, is one of ijk the historic homes of the South. The Manor House is supposed to have been built in 1658. The house of brick and also the brick wall around the garden show extreme age. The house is beautifully panelled inside.

This reference to the place is taken from an account of many years ago, and how much of the account applies to the present day the writer cannot say. There is evidence that the Todds patented lands in Gloucester as early as. 1652. Among records of Baltimore County, Maryland, there is a letter written by Thomas Todd, in 1676, and filed in support of his will. He is on the ship Virginia, bound for Virginia, "very sicke," and mentions property on the North River, Gloucester County, which he willed to his son, Thomas.

The place was in possession of the Todds for generations and had the reputation of being one of the most hospitable manors in all Virginia. Old tombs at Toddsburg give rec ords that are of interest. The earliest date is 1690, the year of Captain Christopher Todd's on April 2. He died on March 26, 1745. Francis Todd, possibly the Captain's brother, was born on April 12, 1692, and departed this life on November 5, 1703.

Captain Thomas Todd, born in 1660, died on January 16, 1724-25. Thomas is a favored name in the family and one Thomas, son of Elizabeth Todd, and born on December 20. 1728, departed this life July 22, 1780. The Tabb family succeeded the Todds as proprietors of the Manor and were a connected family. One gravestone in the old Toddsburg Cemetery gives the birth of Edward Tabb, February 3, 1719; doparted this life January 29, 1732.

He Grand Underline Thurston, the magician, Is coming to the Erlanger Grand Opera House for a two weeks' engagement, opening Sunday night, January 25. A year without a magic show like Thurston's is a good deal like a year without Santa Claus. This season, his twenty-fifth at the head of his own show, by the way, he is vanishing a flesh-and-blood woman right in the midst of his audience. Another feature is Jane Thurston, the magician's daughter. Since she was a little girl Jane has been trained in magio by her father, and she made her debut as a professional In Boston two years ago.

-Vt fit I SB of 00 are of By Dr. P. O. Xeeney. Hji iiEWELL BANKS, American Ci checker champion at match P'a an( chess player JfLfcirUJ with ability above the aver age, will appear at the Cincinnati Chess Club this afternoon at 2:30 in a simultaneous chess and blindfold checker exhibition.

Anyone inter ested in either or both of these games is invited to attend and participate. There is no set fee for playing a "free will" offering will be accepted to compensate Mr. Banks for his time and skill. Mr. Banks's manipulation of the checker men borders on the marvelous.

His blindfold exhibition is un canny. At chess he is far better than rated by the public. He has par ticipated in many tournaments and made fine records. Many chess mas ters like Alekhlne, Capablanca and Marshall speak highly of his chessic ability, Alekhlne, in particular, when in Cincinnati two years ago, was pro fuse and enthusiastically voluble as to Mr, Banks's chess talent and skill. Don't forget today 2:30 p.

at Cincinnati Chess Club! Dr. Max Euwe, of Amsterdam, Holland, was acclaimed' victor in the international chess masters tournament at the Hastings, England, chess festival when at the conclusion of the final round he emerged with a score of 7-2, one-half point to the good of Capablanca, the Cuban, who finished in second position. Mr. Sultan Khan, ot was third, one-half point in the rear of Capablanca, despite the fact that he bested the latter in their game in the second round. When this tournament began we predicted Capablanca would be first and Euwe second.

The result reverses the positions predicted. Outside of that we are a good "picker." Final standing of con testants in this tourney follow: w. Pr. Euwe 7 Capablanca 6Vi Sultan Khan '6 Mlchell Yates 4H 2 4 4H W. 4 3Vi 3 Thomas Winter Menchik Tylor Colle 2H In the premier reserve S.

Flohr, Roumanian expert, won first prize. H. G. Kent, of Chicago, 111., led the solvers in the "Solvers' Ladder" contest at the completion of the first ascent and wins the $3 prize award. The contest continues for another four months with Mr.

Kent at the bottom of the ladder, the remaining solvers retaining their final scores. H. V. Keating, 6745 Doon Avenue, Cincinnati, won the book prize for being the first one to submit correct answers to the Christmas puzzles, Problems Nos. 258 and 259.

Paul Buttenwieser, of Beverly Hills, writes us that the Southern California tournament held under the auspices of the Beverly Hills Club is drawing to a close and appears almost certain to result in a tie for first position between Harry Borochow, 1930 state champion and George Patterson, 1930 Los Angeles champion. Should Patterson win an adjourned game which is quite likely, his score will be identical with that of Borochow, 9i 2. Following a reception at the Manhattan Chess Club of New York in honor of the young champion, Isaac Kashdan, and celebrating his chessic successes abroad during the last five months, the hero of the occasion engaged 23 players in a simultaneous performance. In a little over three hours the young master won 20 games, drew one and lost two. SELECTED GAMES.

Two of the chess fans, Prof. Kirby and George Williams, In submitting their answers contributed clever and interesting poems, dealing with the resulting lines of play. We regret very much that lack of spaoe compels us to omit these poetical gems. As compensation to the authors however, we turned their offerings over to Prof. Hutchlngs, originator of this novelty.

The Professor assured us that their poems were appropriate and ingenious and that he was gratified to find his efforts to amuse ha-1 fallen on fertile soil. The Profesor will have something of interest to offer again in the near future. The following game is taken from Doctor Mendes de Moraes' Miscellanea Recreatlva. The story In which it is framed is here omitted. The players are supposed to be the Baron von Thunderstruck and a peasant, the latter having the white pieces.

P. Northrup, Newark chess editor commented: You will note this diagram Is named "The Tangled Jungle" by Mr. Barry, who ought to know why. It is about the most tangled problem we recall. Before some of you fret through with it, you will have been through an abysmal forest, underbrush, vines here and there, and you may even imagine that just beyond that clump there is a Bengal tiger or a catamount lurking and you may even lancy tne trees filled with rint- tail for the problem has at least 13 separate variations and twice that many sub-variations.

Nicholas Gabor, member of the Cincinnati Chess Club and Symphony Orchestra musician, is never in nap pier mood than when he has completed to his satisfaction a new chess problem. One would naturally suppose after glimpsing the above crea tion that Nick is now "tickled pink." Such, however, is not the case for the author is not satisfied that this problem as presented here cannot be improved on. Such is the dissatisfaction of the master composer.

The average player would be delighted wnn the problem as shown. We pre lict that good as this is Nick will strive for and obtain a more perfect version. PROBLEM NO. 264. By H.

The keymove to Problem' No. 257 by B. Barnett is B-KB5. A neatly constructed problem with very fair key and some pretty mates. There Is considerable more to this composition than one assumes after a firat glance.

Barnett is a good composer and he seems to Improve with age Just as the good Kentucky brand Is reported to do. Problem No. J58 by Dr. P. O.

Keeney admits of solution as follows: (a) 1. PxR claiming a white King, PxKt claiming a black bishop and mating the white King on white's QR8. Note The white knight can interpose because it Is pinned against white King on Kl. (b) Black moving plays: 1. P-Kt8 claiming a blick King, to which white replies O-O-O, mating the King black's KKtS.

Note If black plays 1. PxKt claiming black King, white can not mate by castles because the black bishop can Interpose. Of coursa this was a Christmas novelty and rather absurd, hence we were dubious to Just how the solvers would take it. Judging from the responses those who attempted Its solution enjoyed It Immensely. Refer to Critics' Remarks.

Here Is the way to solve Problem No. 259 Paul Buttenwelser: As the position stands black Is mated, consequently white's last move brought about the mate. Such last move might have been the white moving to Q6 or even moving these and capturing a black piece or the white could have moved from B5 to B3, uncovering a mate or against It might have been the white standing at Kt8, having moved from to Kt6, capturing a piece. In order to fulfill the self mate portion of tho contract latter was what actually transpired. White last moved (B5)xP en passant.

Therefore replace white's at B5 and add a black pawn on black's QKt4. This is the retraction that Is made. White now compels sul-mate In 4 as follows: (1) R-B4ch, PxR; QxBch, K-B6; (3) O-O-O, PxP: (4) B-Kt, P-Kt7 mate. This proved a splendid Christmas puzzle, eliciting merriment from the nri receiving the unqualified endorsement of the critics due to Its clever exploitation of both en passant and castles moves.

was the son of John Tabb and Mar tha, his wife. Also Booths have the same burial place, and one stone has a record of George Wythe Booth, who died on December 20, 1808, in the thirty-sixth year of his age. Among prominent members of the Todd line may be mentioned Thomas Todd, of Kentucky, Justice of the United States Supreme Court He was born in King and Queen County, Virginia. With the Todd family history is mention of the Tabbs one Augustus Tabb was Captain of the State Line in the Revolutionary War. Philip and Thomas Tabb are mentioned and with the rank of Lieutenant.

Other old homes in Gloucester are: Belleville, first home of the Booths, 1658; White Marsh, estate of the Whitings, Rootes and Prossers; Goshen, seat of the Tompkins; Burgh Wlstra, home of the Taliaferros; also Lowland Cottage, built in 1700; Rose-nell, established by the Pages in 1725 and scene of brilliant assemblages. Noble Old Rosenell," it is called; Timber Neck, abode of the Cattletts, of ancient lineage; White Hall, original seat of the Willis family, later, of the Corbins and Byrds, of Southern aristrocracy. Warner Hall was home of the Warners, connections of the Washingtons, with an early date, 1642, year of the on June 3, of Colonel Augustine Warner, who died in 1681. "Here lyetb interred," is recorded upon a gravestone, "Augustine Warner, ye son of Colonel Augustine and Mildred Warner." The Whitings are also kin of the Washingtons and a gravestone at High Gate, a family estate, gives the date of the birth, 1694, of Catherine Washington, wife of Major John Washington and daughter of Colonel Henry and Elizabeth Whiting. The stone has the Whiting coat of arms.

The Virginia Todds is the title of a family record published in 1913 and by the same compiler, J. R. Witcraft, is Todds of the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Christopher Todd, of New Haven, and his descendants, has 1647 for the first date. This is a book of over 700 pages.

Christopher Todd was an important personage in New Haven, almost from the years of its settlement. He came here with his wife Grace, and several children around 1639. He was born in Yorkshire, a son of Wil liam Todd Jr. What is now the campus of Yale College was part of Christopher's property. Many of his descendants now live in New Haven.

The Massachusetts branch of the Todd family has John, also born in Yorkshire, for a colonial forebear He settled at Rowley, in 1637 with his wife Hannah, and six chil dren. For several years he was a representative to the General Court. This gives colonial service for des cendants. One picturesque figure was Adam Todd, born in the Highlands of Scotland, and who wore the garb of his clan. When he died in New York City in 1765, he left a wife Sarah, and four children, Adam, James, Sarah and Margaret The wife, Sarah Todd, has her record in Women of the Revolution.

She remained at her home and was a ministering angel to prisoners and the wounded in hospitals. Her house was called "Rebel Headquarters," by the British. "The sword of the Lord and Washington will prevail," was Mrs. Todd's expression of her faith in th9 righteousness of the cause. She was thanked personally for her devoted loyalty by Washington.

Descendants of Adam and Sarah Todd include branches of the families of Whetten, Brevoort and Dodge. The wife of the first Astor in this country, John Jacob Astor, was Sarah Todd, of the Adam Todd line. The Todd coat of arms, herewith pictured, is ascribed to Christopher Todd, of Connecticut, and is blazoned Arms: Argent, three foxes' heads, couped gules, a border vert. Crest: A cap of maintenance gules; turned up ermine, a fox sejant, proper. Motto: Oportet vlvre It is necessary to live Armorial bearings are given for other branches of Todd lineage.

KADI0 GRAMS. Direct radio communication between San Francisco, and Shanghai, China, was recently established. This new link is over a distance of 6,121 miles. California and Illinois have enacted laws to prevent libel and slander over radio. Broadcasting of indecent, profane or obscene lan guage is a crime in these statss.

The average advertising rate of 20 the large radio stations of the United States is $310 an hour. The monthly Income of the 20 stations ftom advertising averages $21,500 each, while their total monthly income averages $23,500. Overwhelming dominance of the United States in broadcasting channels, attained by prior claim when broadcasting was still a novelty, is being actively disputed by Canada ond Mexico. The United States uses of the channels, but of these 12 shared with Canada and Mexico. The new radio transmitting station to be constructed in Trieste, Italy, will have a power of 15 kilowatts with a modulation of 100 per cent.

It will be capable of working between 200 and 545 meters, but will normally work on 247.7 meters. A new type of valve drive has been incorporated which will insure a constancy of carrier wave. FOR THE NOTEBOOK. Click tests with ear phones are of little value when in search of trouble about the set unless properly interpreted. Voltmeter tests are much more reliable.

A radio freauency line filter in serted in the circuit between the light socket and the receiver is one method filtering out the disturbance caused by a station heard on all waves. above puzzle will appear in this section twkt Sunday Herewith is solution to puzzle published last Sunday.

The first requirement from this modern set is good quality.

The first requirement for good quality is proper emission from the filaments or cathode's of tha tubes, especially the audio and the power tubes. It is false economy to run a receiver at the lowest possible voltage consistent with good volume. The modern set loses its good quality far sooner than its volume as the filament voltage is reduced. For this reason alone, therefore, It is poor practice to oper ate the set on or near the low limit of filament voltage. There are other considerations which affect the power tubes u.n:l principally the rectifier tube.

With the rectifier tube the filament is really an anode half the time. These tubes operate at very high plate voltages and almost always contain some gas which becomes ionized. With insufficient filament emission, the filament is subjected to a bombardment from the positive ions. Proper filament emis sion protects the filament from this bombardment. This effect causes the filament to deteriorate and the tube to burn out or become Ineffective long before it3 time.

This same effect takes place in the power tube where there are slight traces of gas present End when the filament emission is not normal. From every standpoint, therefore, it is necessary tnat the filament voltage be very close to Its rated value in order to receive the proper operation of the set and the normally expected service from tha tubes.
