In times past the depository system has been used as a political weapon. The finance committee is composed of Governor Jackson, State Auditor L. S. Bowman and State Treasurer Grace B Urbahns. Motorist to Spend Christmas in Prison For Frank E. McCormick, 120 S. Rural St.. Christmas this year does not promise to be a very merry affair. In fact, if Santa Claus puts anything in Frank’s stocking, the benevolent old gentleman will have to come down the chimney at the county Jail. Municipal Judge Paul C. Wetter dbiy fined McCormick $25 add senhim to thirty days on charges of assault and battery and driving while intoxicated. Traffic Officer Wilkinson said McCormick was Intoxicated when, on Oct. 24, he ran his car through a safety zone and injuned Miss Betty Bauman, 16, of 52 S. Tuxedo Ave. McCormick does not plan to appeal. He denied he was saying he was sick. V

JAZZ AGE ON TRIAL IN SLA YING Washington Business Man's Son Convicted of Manslaughter. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Richard Henry Rule, 22-year-old son of a capital business nten, was found Kiiilty early today by a Rockville (Mil.) jury of manslaughter for the Halloween killing of 19-year-old William J. Barbee Jr. The State contended the trial was an action against "modern youth.” Rule shot and killed Barbee when the latter came to a suburban eyb where Halloween was being celebrated merrily by boys and girls of high school age. The defendant claimed he feared attack and shot in self-de-fense. “Modern youth,” said State's Attorney Cissel in summing up, “is in revolt against authority. Youth seems triumphant over all the restraint that we were subject to in our youth; it is time for someone to call a halt. Weapons were made for legitimate uses and not for beardless pouths to carry at parties. We must enforce the law of the country and of God —‘Thou shalt not klL’ ” TWO LEADERS Bu United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—Two captains were elected by the city College football team to lead the squad next season.

STARS OF LEAGUE FADE OUT American Loop President Worried as Cobb, Collins and Speaker Leave. By Frank Getty. NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—President Ban B. Johnson of the American I.eague is keeping the wires hot in an effort to retain for his circuit the services of several of the greatest baseball players of all time. Not so long ago. there wasn’t an all-star team possibly without the inclusion of Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker and Ekldie Collins in the line-up. Within a few weeks, all three have lost or given up their jobs as managers of American I.eague teams. To make matters worse', from Johnson’s point of view, two former popular stars of the younger circuit have signed to manager clubs in the National League. Five Out of Seven Os the seven big league managers who have been fired or retired since the 1925 season closed, five were under Johnson’s jurisdiction. George Sisler, deposed as manager of the St. Louis Browns, probably will not leave the league as a player, and it is equally probable that he will play first base for Phil Ball's club next year. Relieved of his managerial duties, Sisler has few peers as a first baseman. The case of Lee Kohl is quite the opposite. Kohl failed at Boston and is dropped from the list of eligible big league managers without regret. Cobb. Speaker and Collins, howeve, are not only capable managers, who have shown they could drive their teams into the thick of a penrant race, but are tremendous drawing cards, as well, and big league baseball is organized for profit. AVaning Popularity Ban Johnson's interest lies not in dictating or suggest'ing who should manage which team. It is based solely upon the waning popularity of his league compared with the riyal circuit. Bush and Stuffy Mclnnis, former American League stars, have signed to managee t lie Pirates and the Phillies, respectively. That they will be more popular than their predecessors is probable. There are no more National League managerial berths open at present, although there yet ntay be something doin gin an eastern club. But if Speaker, Cobb and Collins pass to the minors, which is unlikely, or into retirement, their going means fewer dollars in the coffers of the Johnson circuit, for the time being, at least. GIILTI OF KILLING Daniel G. Harris, Negro, was found guilty of manslaughter in Criminal Court today. Harris was accused of killing Charles Gurton, Negro, 215 Indiana Ave., in a quarrel.

WISE-CRACK TO VICTOR Y FOR LIQUOR Oxford University Students Beat Americans in Debate. Bu United Press KANSAS CITY, Mo., Dec. 2.—A British debating team from Oxford University “wise-cracked” its way to an unanimous victory in a debate on rohibition with a team from Westminster College of Fulton, Mo., here last night. The Britishers argued that teetotalism contributed not a whit to the general health. Their contention was that an occasional nip tends to prolong life. The Westminster deheaters took seriously their task of upholding pro hibition. They cited facts and figures to show America was better economically, physically, socially and moral ly since the departure of spirits. Patrick Monkhoure of the Oxford team told of buying a drink in New York that “tated like a mixture of gasoline and toothpaste.” “You talk of the homes wrecked by liquor,” argued Michael Franklin, another Oxford debater. “Look at the ships wrecked by water. Drink has been the inspiration of poets from time immemorial. Imagine a man getting up and cold bloodedly' singing, ‘Fifteen Men On a Dead Man’s Chest, O, Ho, Ho and a Bottle of Coca Cola’.” Tlte judges awarded the decision to Oxford unanimously. But the sober-minded audience baalloted 342 to 183 in favor of prohibition. WILL DECIDE UPON WATER RATE CASE Rehearing to Be Discussed by Commission Friday. Whether or not the public service commission will ask for a rehearing before the United States Supreme Court of the Indianapolis Water Company rate case is to be decided Friday, according to Chairman John W. McCardle. Such a course was advised against as “impractical’’ in an opinion from Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom, Wednesday. Gilliom pointed out that since the property Valuation upon w/.ch present rates are based, is the $19,000,000 decided upon by Federal Court in 1924, the only practical way to proceed would be to set anew revaluation, bringing it up to date, “providing changing values warrant.” The valuation was originally set by the commission at $15,260,400, but raised by the court. McCardle is of the opinion that there has been little change in value since 1924. hut declined to say what action might be taken. INVESTS IN CANADA t nclo Sam Figures in Dominion’s Business.

Women Not Adapted to Athletics

Bij I nili il I'rraa LONDON, Dec. 2.—Longer legs and more blood-cells account for the supremacy of man over woman. This at any rate Is the belief of Harry Campbell, a well-known lecturer on hygiene who in an address before the Ipstitute of Hygiene declared: "The statement made by a recent wongin channel swimmer that women surpass men in athletics is plain nonsense. Women have srnallei lungs and fewer blood-cells than men. Also they have shorter legs hence they are bad runners. In women the vital fire does not burn so quickly. Hence it is obvious that women are not adopted like men for a strenuous muscular life. "Intellectually, women stand on much the same footing as men. While genius is more common in the male sex, so also is idiocy.’’ N.
