Piety and O'Mara Claim They Knew Nothing of Agreement On Test Case,
t-
When fecial Prosecutors Thomas O'Mara and John Piety and Attorneys Walker and Blankenbbaker and Whitlock & Owens, attorneys for the defense, appeared before Special Judge Clarence A. Royse Tuesday rtiorning for the purpose of setting the slot machine ca^es for trial, Attorney Felix Blankenbaker stated that the attorneys tor the defendants had amde an agreement with Prosecutor \V. E. Horsley for trying a test cas6» Blankenbaker said •they had agreed to set one of the cases for trial and in ca?»e of conviction the defendant would appeal to the Supreme Court's decision, and the remaining cases would be passed awaiting \the Supreme Court's decision. If the Supreme Court sustains the plea in abatement which Judge Royse has overruled, all the cases would be dismissed. Judge Royse asked If the defendants would plead guilty if the Supreme Court overruled the plea in abatement, and Blankenbaker replied, "Certainly not."
Attorneys O'Mara and Piety were taken by surprise, and Mr. O'Mara asked the court to pass the question until Wednesday morning as they were entirely ignorant of the agreement between Horsley and the attorneys for the defendants, and Horsley was not present.
When O'Mara and Piety'were appointed special prosecutors tney were placed in full charge of the Clark-Gos-rell and slot machine cases. Horsley has stated that he has .Asked for their resignations. Both deputy prosecutors say they know absolutely no thine of the agreement for a test case.
After the question of the test case was continued until Wednesday and the attorneys had left the court house it was remembered that the Splady murder case was set for trial in Rockville Wednesday and that Horsley and Walker and Blankenbaker would be there. The court will make an effort to get them together gome time Tuesday afternoon.
Tuesday morning the attorneys filed a paragraph in the Clark-Gosneli ^ases which are being heard by Special Judge Aikman, and the other slot machine cases* which are before Special Judge Hunt.

PETTY PUTS UPSET
Continued From Page One.
the vocational school were not malifled to take up this work. He said the printing at Garfield High had been a success and that a high grade of apprentices had been turned out there.
The chairs and the lawnmower were then brought Into the debate. Mr. firiggs said he had never seen the lawnmower, but that he had knowledge of five chairs being brought'there from the Erailine Firbanks library to be repaired. He said he had reported that these were not fit to repair and use in the library. In regard to twenty-three chairs being sent there for repair he said he had no knowledge of this.
The age limit Of the boys was then discussed, and Mr. Briggs said that any boy able to do the ygork. should be allowed In the school. He said that some of the best workers in the school Were boys who had entered before they were 14, and who had been considered "misfits" in academic work. V
Evidences of Friction.
Disorganization and efforts to hinder the work of Mr. Briggs were seemingly apparent at every turn. An affidavit was submitted to the effect that a Jesse Smith, employed as a teacher In the vocational school, was a strike ^agitator and disorganizer and that he had tried to disorganize the work and urge the boys to drop out of certain classes. Mr. Briggs said he had reported these facts to Superintendent
Waits and members of the board and that as a result the man had been employed for another year at an increase ip. salary. Mr. Waits said the affair had been reported to him but that no formal charges had ever been filed against the man, and Mr. Briggs answered that he had not received much encouragement in the complaints that he had filed.
Mr. Briggs said that bearing In mind the fact that the men at the vocational school worked eight hours every day and that the tuition was $7.50 per month, and that only one-third of the expense of the vocational school was paid by the local school city the expense of maintaining the vocational school was far less than that of maintaining the high schools and the grade schools. M*. Waits said his reports showed'that the expense of the vocational school for eight months amounted to $26,000 in round figures.
Gives Brings Control.
Trustee Greenleaf said that conditions at the present time reminded him of conditions four years ago when Mr. Hagaman, a capable man In vocational work, was discharged for the reason that he was not in harmony with the superintendent. He said that it was time for the board to get behind vocational training a.nd boost It and everything connected with it, and that it was absurd to talk of doing away with it.
Talks in favor of maintaining vocational training and of having harmony ajid co-operation in this department w^re made by I. "W. Richardson, Judge R. V. Newton, A. L,. Miller. Earl Houck and Prof. Lauback. John S. Cox said he felt compelled to congratulate the board on its ability to shift responsibility.
Mr. Greenleaf made a motion that the charges against Mr. Briggs, if there were any, be found without foundation and that he be elected vocational director for another year. Trustees Greenleaf and Gerstmeyer voted in favor of the motion, while Trustee Schmidt did not vote.
Mr. Greenleaf then made another motion that the vocational director have the authority to employe and discharge all employes of the vocational department and this was also carried with Greenleaf and Gerstmeyer voting for it and Schmidt against it.
