College Boys Warned of Six Vice Snares By United Prenn MADISON, Wis., Sept. 13.—The six vices of which the college student must beware are listed, with comments on each, in a pan-rfi-let to be handed each student entering Wisconsin University this fall. Dean Scott H. Goodnight is the author. The vices are: Loafing—A very pernicious habit. Smoking—A treacherous and insidious habit. Profanity—A useless, insane habit which stamps the habitue as of low and vulgar mind. Gambling—A fascinating vice which consumes time, money and moral tissue. Drinking—A most vicious practice which has, unfortunately, been popular among college men in recent years because of the difficulty and danger attendant on procuring liquor. Lewdness—Nothing more speedily stamps a student in a coeducational institution as an undesirable academic citizen than lack of high regard for womanhood.

Brown of the tax board said he hoped that reserve balances and increased revenues of the State from other sources would prev’ent any great increase in rate. Special levies to apply in 1928 include five mills for the corn-borer fight, one mill for reforestation and four mills for the George Rogers Clark Memorial at Vincennes, Ind.

Detailed examination of prospective jurors in the trial of Major John L. Duvall upon a charge of violating the corrupt practices act in Criminal Court today follows: Otto Buescher, gardener, R. R. 1, Box 46, when examined by the State, declared he was not acquainted with the defendant nor any local politicians. "Do you believe a man, mayor of Indianapolis, should pay the penalty of the law, the same as any other man?” Johnson asked him. “Yes,” Buescher replied. When Johnson asked him if he felt he could serve as a member of the jury he replied that he could “if it didn't take too long.” Speak of the Heat Johnson asked him If he was inconvenienced now by being a prospective jurors. “No, but it’s terribly warm in here,” he replied. Duvall, sitting behind Ryan, smiled when Ryan told Buescher that “it’s warm out here, too.” Paul H. Buchanan, 25 W. Fall Creek Blvd., undertaker, was the third talesman to be questioned by Johnson. Buchanan admitted knowing Claude F. Johnson, city controller, when he was police chief, because he “had been fined for overtime parking once.” When asked if there was any reason why he could not serve as a jury member, Buchanan replied: “None except that I haven’t a very high opinion of the defendant.” Judge Shirley ordered the answer stricken from the record and Buchanan wae passed. Question Gannon Closely Clarence Springer, R. R. H, carpenter, was asked if he knew “Duvall or any of his brothers-in-law.” Upon objection by defense counsel this was changed to be more specific and Springer denied knowing William C. Buser, former city controller, of Frank Driver. George B. Gannon, 5319 N. New Jersey St., Diamond Chain Company inspector, was asked if he believed in “law enforcement.” “In general, yes,” Gannon replied, and when asked to explain his answer the whisper “prohibition” spread among court attaches. It developed, however, upon explanation that Gannon merely objected to “enforcing a fifteen-mile speed limit through the business district, as they used to do.” Gannon was questioned more closely by the State than any other talesman.

Unspared Auto Wrecks Tree at Seymour Under Which Peter Ross Spun Yarns.

By Timen Special r __ m _ EYMOUR, Ind., Sept. 13. SThe little maple tree under __J which Peter Ross used to spin yarns to the delight of railroad men who “laid over” In Seymour, is no more. An automobile, driven by an Indianapolis man who, police said, was so drunk he was unable to tell them his name, wrecked the tree and smashed the front of a barber shop. Herman Foist, companion of the motorist, was fined $lO and costs for intoxication. A third man, said to have been in the car, could not be found. Ross is remembered as one of the most unique characters that ever came to this city. Although of Danish-German descent, he was Scotch in mannerisms. After wandering over the greater portion of the world, Ross settled here and opened a little tailor shop in front of which was the tree. There he would regale railroaders with entertaining tales. At the close of the World War, Ross was called to Schleswig-Hol - stein, where he had been advised an estate awaited him, promising friends he would return. But things apparently did not go well, and Ross stayed. The tree became decrepit and the railroad men put it into good condition by working with chisels and concrete. They did the work partly as a reminder of hpapy days, partly in the hope that Ross would return. But he never came back—they do not know whether he Is dead or living—and the little tree is only a memory today.

teenth St., carpenter, told Johnson he did not know one city official, but had met Duvall once or twice. William C. Price, Wayne Township farmer, never met Duvall, he said, and knew none of the list propounded to Jurors by Johnson. The names included: Buser, Claude Johnson, Claude McCoy, city hall employee, George V. Coffin, Otis Dodson, Cassius C. Hogle, county commissioner; Claude M. Worley, and Duvall’s three brothers-in-laws. Fred Binninger, a Perry Township farmer, said he “hasn’t heard much about the case.” “Have you heard any of your neighbors talk about the case?” Attorney Michal A. Ryan of the defense asked. “I haven't got any neighbors,’ he declared. “Have you read about it in the newspapers,” he was asked. Challenge Fails “I don’t read the newspapers often and when I do I read The Times,” he answered. “I suppose you mean that as a compliment to The Times,” Ryan suggested. “Do you know Duvall?” was Ryan’s next query. ‘ No, No,” Binninger said. “Do you have any opinions as to the guilt or innocence of the dsfendant?” the attorney questioned. “It’s too deep for me,” the talesman said. He said he believed he might have some prejudices. He was retained. As the close of the morning session, defense attorneys attempted to challenge Tegeler, because his summons bore the address, 2632 Brill St. Tegeler said he had an aunt, Mrs. Frideriche Tegeler, at that address, obviously confused with his own first name, Frederick. Judge Shirley refused to honor the challenge. Tegeler said he was not acquainted with any city officials. He declared he never has taken any interest in politics. He asserted belief in enforcement of the law and the corrupt practice act. “I would vote for conviction if It was proven beyond a reasonable doubt,” he said.
