Two Wireless Traitors Condemned

PARIS,

PAUL FERDONNET and An- dra Obrecht, accused as traitorm because of their broadcasts over the Sluttgart Radio, have been sentenced to death by a French military court,

"For

D handful of gold they Kold their honour," said the prosecutor.

"For it they have dragged the good name of our homeland in the mud. Only their blood" can wipe out their crimes."

Should the accused men now appear in France or be captured they will be shot as traitors.

The beating of drums and the sound of trumpets in the court- yard before the judges assembled summoned the accused to appear. Their failure to answer was the moment when they became rebels against the Blate. -Witnesses told of Ferdonnet's long career as an agent in Paris of the Nazis.

STAR FINDS BABY DEAD

EVERY one of the 1,000 or so house- holders in Higham Ferrers, Northants, found a 5s. postal order in his letter-box.. Every Higham Ferrers soldier and sailor and airman on active service received one also.

It was all because of that Toseland girl.; Only 16, she was.

She used to fetch materials from the boot factory at Kettering where young Al- fred Sudborough was an operative.

well set-up likeable fellow of 20.

"

That was on February 2, 1890. Just 50 years ago. Hence the Golden Wedding postal orders.

For Alfred Sudborough didn't re- main a boot operative. He set up as

a manufacturer himself. In a very sinal way.

"I didn't worry. I knew the stuff he was made of," saki, Mrs. Sud- borough recently.

She helped the new firm by doing some of the work at home, just us she had done when she was "that Tose- (land girl,”
