OXLEY CHILDREN WARDS OF COURT

Neglect By Parents Charged and Little Boy aAid Cir! Are Sent to Julia Work Home. On the complaint of neighbors that Fred Oxley and wife were not providing properly for their two children, Freddie, aged 5, .and Goldie, aged 3, were taken before Judge Hanley Monday afternoon by Truant Officer Charles B. Steward. When he stated his business to the parents after rapping at the door, Mr. Steward states that Mrs. Oxley cursed and said she would shoot any “ dren a\Vay. Mr. Steward asked her to come to the court house and rtate her ability to care for the children to Judge Hanley but she declined to go. The father went and made feeble objection to the children being taken away and Judge Hanley ordered the little ones taken to the Julia Work home at Plymouth and he left for that place on the 6:50 train and arrived home this morning. The Oxleys came here about three years ago and have been more or less in the limelight since that time. Recently she sued her husband for divorce and the case is now pending but they are said to be living together. Various rumors concerning the conduct of the mother have been passed about town and these led co the decision to take the children away.

Galaxy of World’s Greatest Speed Drivers in Grind Today.

With the qualifying, of Eddie O’Donnell in his Dusenberg and Ralph Mulford in a Puegeot late Monday afternoon, the number of starters for today’s race was raised to 23. However, in the time test O’Donnel’s car suffered an injury Which .would probably prevent his entering. Jack LeCain sent word to the officials, that car trouble would keep him out of the race, so it is probable that there will only be 21 to face the starter at 1:30. Mulford qualified the Puegeot at a speed of 91 miles an hour. rt has been said at the track a good many times that the cai \9fcich beats Christien’s Sunlbeam will be in the lead of the rest of the field at the finish, and it is generally conceded that Johnny Aitken in a Puegeot has the best chance of annexing first prize. Rickenbacher is greatly feared by all. Resta is also conceded to have a chance but it is hardly thought that he will make the race that he did last year, for he is nqt given credit for knowing the track as well as some of the other drivers.
