Okeson, treasurer of Lehigh University, probably will be elected chairman of the football rules ; committee of the National Col ! legiate Athletic Association, one; of the most important posts in] ‘American sports, it was believed ■ today. ; Reports had indicated the vaci ancy left by the death of E. K.! Hall would be filled by W. S.! ' Langford. New York insurance; broker and secretary of the rules! committee. However, it was understood' that the nominating committee teels that Okeson. commissioner' ! of football officials in the east, is! closely identified with the game! and still actively connected with) a college. Moreover. Okeson'sj ! succession to the chairmanship' 'was reported to be the wish of. Hall, expressed to the association' . by his widow. Okeson and Langford are con-! i sidered the “strong men” of grid ! iron officialdom. Each apparently] I is endowed with the abilities to] I hold down this storm center of j the football world. Langford is] expected to continue as secretary. This election, the most important task of the N. C. A. A.'s an-; j nttal two-day meeting, was scheduled at today's final session, after I, i tiie nominating committee recom-l mended the nominee to the asso-l eiation. The period of office is' ( for one year, but it is customary; to re-elect the chairman annually! over a long period of years. Major John L.

B A j | feather weight champion, pounded I lout a 10-round decision over the] ! fading Fidel La Barba of Califor- | nia in a non-title bout at the Chi-' I cage stadium last night. I.a Barba's lightning left failed] to bold its usual potency as Paul , 'darted and ducked around it,| ■ beating him to the punch and' hammering the coast contender hard at close range. Paul won 1 six of the ton rounds, according; to the United Press score card. Maxie Rosenbloom, light heavyweight contender, slapped his way to a verdict over Billy Jones. | Philadelphia negro. Rosenbloom! ' had no trouble dodging the negro's ; ponderous punches, flicking rights ■ and lefts to the face and body! throughout. They fought ten , rounds. Martin Leyandowski, Grand Rap ids. won by a technical knockout! , over Bob Olin. New York, in the[ ‘ fifth round of a scheduled ten! rounder. Leyandowski had too much power, flooring Olin in the, fourth. Olin was helpless when! I he came out for the fifth. Freddie Miller. Cincinnati, who! ' fiehts Paul for the featherweight title next month, won easily over] Jackie Sharkey, Minneapolis, in] I the eight round preliminary. Miller took seven of the eight rounds.

Local fans believe that if Decatur turns back the invading Archerr, tne Yellow Jackets will have one of the outstanding records of northern Indiana. Michigan City trimmed Bluffton Tigers last night, but only after a tough net scrap. The LaPorte county team is regarded as one of the best in the state. It boasts throe players over 6 feet in height and two exactly 6 feet. I BEAT SOUTH SIDE. - Indications are the local gymnasium will be filled for the first this season, " tonight.— Those who do not have season seasen tickets had better call at the doors early, or the tickets will be gobbled up before you get there. South Side Is credited with being the best in Fort Wayne — if that means anything, anymore. The Archers are big and deadly I at the basket —The team plays a | fast break and the forwards shoot from everyplace. Well rate the county teams this way—Then you fans send in your guesses: Berne, Kirkland. Jefferson. Geneva. Monmouth. Pleasant Mills, Monroe, Hartford.

TWO STUDENTS i FALL TO DEATH Harvard Freshmen Drop With Plane .Into Water Near Boston Boston. Mass.. Dec. 30. — (U.R) —, Coast guardsmen early'today hoist-1 ed from the sea the airplane in I which two Harvard freshmen were carried to their deaths late yesterday. The plane was believed to contain the bodies. The dead were Edward Mallinckrodt, 3rd., son of a multimillionaire Saint Louis chemical manufacturer. and Donald McKay Frost, Jr., son of a wealthy Boston lawyer. Mallinckrodt received hLs private pilot’s license several weeks ago. He and Frost rented a plane and were practicing spins. Watchers on the shore saw the plane come successfully out of two series of spins and then side slip and fall heavily into the water. It was several hours before coast guardsmen located the plane. Both youths were members of i distinguished families. Mallinci krodt's father is chairman of the board of the Mallinckrodt chemical works and one of Missouri’s .chief industrialists. Frost’s father, prominent lawyer, is a descendant of Donald McKayen famous builder of clipper ships. NEGRO SOLDIER KILLED AFTER MURDERING 4 _CqNTINUEp_ FROM PAGE ONE ' The officer was at work in his ; garden when the negro appeared : and without a moment's hesitation i opened fire. Mrs. Palmer and her j two small children were inside the house. The maddened trooper , ] forced his way in and felled the ] woman with another bullet. The' children, hiding in another room.! apparently escaped the attention ; of the gunman. With the revolver in his hand. 1 Aberneathy paused on the threshhold as the provost guard, led by Lieut. Matthews, surrounded the cottage. The negro glared wildly for a moment at the detachment and 1 then fired point-blank at Matthews. He started to flee and wheeled; about for a second shot just as Corp. Peter Hardley dropped him 1 with a bullet through the heart. Soldiers placed the bodies in' motor lorries and took them to nearby Bisbee where funeral services were being arranged. I Fellow-troopers said Aberneathy ] had been ill for some time but had I never shown signs of insanity. He had been convicted three years ! ago of manslaughter in connection ' with a Bisbee automobile accident' but had been granted a suspended sentence. Palmer and Wessely both were veterans of the army, having enI tered war-tiine service in 1917.' They were popular with their men, it was said. Palmer, who was 42 was a native of Beverly, Mass. His I wife was from Dedham. Mass. They have two children, David, 12, and Polly, 10. Wessely was 45 and a graduate of the quartermaster corps motor' transport school. He enlisted in! San Antonio, Texas, his home. His [ wife is a native of Cedar Rapids, lowa. The captain was an assistant to the quartermaster and was in charge of the commissary, supply depot, laundry and other fort; units.

She claimed the temperance worker was trying to "take my husband away from me” and that the couple once had gone to a cabaret and became intoxicated. The W. C. T. U. head denied the cabaret episode. She declared she met the publicity man during the recent campaign. The organ ization had been doing some research work on alcohol, she said, and Lynch was helping her with ; publicity on the studies. Then on Christmas Eve, said i Mrs. Brucer. she visited Lynch' and found he had undertaken certain personal experiments with alcohol. This, she said, was the first uccaslon she had ever seen a person intoxicated, but she had heard that black coffee should be administered. She made Lynch some coffee, and has not seen him since, she said. And she's not going to see him again either, Mrs. Brucer announced. 1 0 | Gets Life Sentence Terre Haute. Dec. 36— (U.R) — Carl Romoser, 17. the “world's sleepiest boy” was sentenced to ] life imprisonment in state prison today on charges of murdering his brother, Louis, 21. ] Carl, who gained his reputation : for drousiness by sleeping 46 out ' of every 48 hours during his eon- ! finement in the county jail said ; “thank you" when sentenced. | Carl showed no particular signs | of sleepiness when brought into , court but his attitude of general unconcern as to his future still i was apparent. ~ FOR FUNERALS — (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE' ; the comment that the train fares 'to the Longworth funeral cost $6.422.20,” Sumners said in his letter ; "During Mr. Longworth's lifetime 1 talked with him about this resolution I was trying to get 'through to slop these congressional funerals at public expense, and he agreed with me thoroughly. If he had been alive he would have] Idisapproved this expenditure of the public funds. "I hope that a provision will be j incorporated in the legislative ap-j propriation bill prohibiting the ex-j penditure nf any public money.ini connection with these funerals.” Sumners reiterated what he said I ' when he offered his first anti- 1 funeral bill: “In the days when popular re-1 spect for government was held | largely through the awe which I pomp and splendor and pageantry attached to official personages and positions there may have been some real justification for this sort | of thing, but among a people who | are supposed to follow principles jas distinguished from persons and .where public officials are merely ] private persons temporarily called to the public service, the expendl- [ : ture of public funds in connection j with congressional funerals can- I not be justified. "Besides, the custom makes ! necessary that members of congress abandon the discharge of public duties while they go possibly thousands of miles to be pres- j

ent at these funerals. I believe | most everybody now recognizes It is not a proper method of showing respect (or a deceased member. It is not a proper expenditure of public funds. It is not a proper use of the time of members of con- , gross. This custom is unfair both to the deceased in whose honor it is supposed to be observed and of the living to continue it. “The majority of the members of congress want to abolish thia custom. The difficulty is that it is a thing which is established and when a member dies the customary resolution is brought in as a mat-
