41-Year-Old Driver Held as Parole Violator After Drinking Party. An attractive 18year-old girl was placed on probation for a year today in municipal court and a man, 41, is held as a parole violator as a result of a taxi ride and drinking party which started Thursday night and ended early Friday.

Police who encountered Byroad “arly Friday near Michigan street and Massachusetts avenue, were informed by him that a girl had robbed him of his cab and $2.60. Tell Story in Court Miss Hinton was arrested at her home after being trailed by another cab driver, whose attention was attracted by the unusual sight of a woman at a cab wheel. Detectives obtained almost identical statements from the girl and Byroad. They stated that after a round of beer-dispensing places, Byroad left her in a cab when he went into a restaurant, and that she drove away and left him.

Hearing Is Continued Judge William H. Sheaffer dismissed a charge of unlawful possession of an automobile in the girl's case, placed her on probation and continued hearing of Byroad on a vagrancy charge to June 9. After bond of $5,000 had been set, Byroad said: “I can’t make that.” , “That’s what I know,” Sheaffer responded.

DEATH CLAIMS IRON DUKE' OF SPORTS WORLD Famous Conditioner of Athletes, Great Men Falls to Old Age. (Continued From Page One) so they picked out athletic-looking fellows from the ranks to teach wrestling.” After the war he came to New York and worked as a waiter and “bouncer.” Then he joined the New York police force, and within a few years was placed in charge of the department gymnasium. World Champion Wrestler It was while one of the “finest” that he first attracted attention as a wrestler. He beat Jim Gaffney, champion wrestler of the “cops,” with such ease that sporting men matched the new athletic wonder with Chris Bauer, a top-ranking wrestler of the day. Bauer went the way of Gaffney and within a short time Muldoon found himself world's champion. He retired undefeated after years of competition. Muldoon turned to training boxers. Jack Dempsey, the Nonpareil, John L. Sullivan and Kid McCoy were among the ring notables who placed themselves in his care. It probably was work in conditioning the great “John L.” for his fight with Jake Kilrain that won for Muldoon his renown as a builder of men. Treated Great Men At his health resort he successfully treated Elihu Root, Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft. Even these “greats” complied with his “no loafing” orders. There was something brutally arrogant in his methods, but few dared resent it. As head of the New York state boxing commission. Muldoon had much to do with the popularization of the sport. His insistence on clean play, and his passionatae interest in boxing as such, forced fighters and managers to a recognition of his principles of sportsmanship. Gene Tunney owed much of his success as a fighter to Mulaoon’s advice. “It is a fine thing for boxing.” the graying old man said after the Dempsey-Tunney fight at Philadelphia, “that we have a man of the type of Gene Tunney.”

6.0, P. LEADER SOUNDS PLEA FOR REPEAL Henry Marshall. Lafayette Publisher. Lashes Cannon and Crawford. (Continued From Page One) several reasons.” Marshall asserted. As Speaker of the house, his name is written on the Wright ’bone dry* law repeal. So as ’Brother Crawford’ goes about assailing repeal, he is ’very unhappy,’ for he went into office on a party platform calling for submission, and on a national platform calling for prohibition repeal. “He went into office pledged to do what his party platform promised would be done. He received the votes of a majority and a positive mandate from that majority to support repeal. Hence, the gentleman’s arguments do not carry much force. Takes Slap at Cannon “Blessed are the consistent. Blessed are the sincere. Getting votes as a repeal candidate and keeping those of persons who favor keeping the eighteenth amendment must be quite an achievement.” Turning to Bishop Cannon. Marshall dismissed him with: “It is to be regretted that our friends who advocate retention of the eighteenth amendment could not bring in from outside the state a speaker more worthy of public respect, and better entitled to a hearing, than the sadly discredited Cannon of Virginia. His record is known to all.” Stressing effect of repeal on jobmaking, crop consumption, tax relief and respect for law, Marshall asserted “we have learned our lesson.” Myers Urges Repeal “Repeal, revenue, regulation, recovery—these are the four R’s in the school of experience. We are ready to act intelligently Tuesday,” he added. At Vincennes. Walter Myers, speaker of the 1931 house of representatives and former candidate for United States senator, told a large mass meeting that the promises made in behalf of prohibition have not been hilfilled and that nothing can spur more the return of recovery than repeal of the eighteenth amendment. “Prohibition must be repealed in the interest of decent politics, in the interest of good morals, in the interest of keeping the church and state separate, in the interests of the rising generation, and, most of all, in the interests of American institutions and government,” Myers asserted.
