...Moscow in disguise, to organize a rescue for the Tsar. He got to Ekaterinburg, but was recognized as an officer, put in prison and would probably have been shot if he had not escaped. When he rejoined the Whites he was assigned to assist the late N. A. Sokolov, the official investigator of the Tsar's death.

The children's series will be expanded this year, will be given in coöperation with a four-year course in appreciation in Chicago public high schools.
