ATHLETES IN

BIG MEET

(Contlaued from Pas L

went 5 feet and 7 inches without the pole and sailed upward and over the 11 feet 7-inch mark with it. He can make 11 feet 10 Inches in practice, and is

considered a winner. McCormick will

loft the 16-pound iron. Symmes and

Davidson are to run the dashes and

Hake Knotts, Townsley and Symmes

the mile, quarter and half.

One reason advanced by Gary sup-!

porters who are bold enough to hope for three firsts, three seconds and a couple of thirds, making the final counting 24,

for their optimistic prophecies is that the program is long and the doubling will be easy. At the South Bend meet, where Gary made a big showing, the

matinee was delayed until it had to be

hurried through. Tomorrow it Is

thought that the stars Wicks and

Bennett will have time to recuperate between races. However, the general

belief is that Gary will be unable to

get over ten or twelve points.

Whiting sent four to the tennis tour

nament that Is running in Joint set slon with the track meet. The first day's events on the campus courts was disastrous to Pederson and Peceny ot

Whiting, who were entered in the

doubles. Lewis' Institute administered the defeat 6-2, 6-4. Vater will handle the discuss for Whiting tomorrow. He

has placed the disk 10S feet away from himself in meets and 115 in practice.

He will be the only man from his school

in the meet. Hirsch of Hammond will go after the mile and a half. With Crumpacker and

Hirsch lie their school's only hope. They

will be accompanied by a crowd from Hammond. Gary fans will go en masse. The interest in the annual meet i stronger this year than formerly.

For the interscholastlc track and field

meet of the western schools Coach Gil

roy of the Gary high school has entered Wicks, Knotts.. Hake, Davidson, Symes, Bennett and McCormick. Wicks will undoubtedly take the pole vault, while Hake and Knotts show up good for the

relay, half and mile runs. Davidson and Symes are expected to show up well in the dashes, while Eennett is looked forward to take the broad jump and 120-yard hurdles.

LAW ALLOWS ONLY FOUR DOLLARS (Continued from Page one)

calendar day on which the registration board is In session. Neither of such persons is entitled to receive anything more, except that the inspectors may be allowed pay for the actual time that they are necessarily engaged in going to the Auditor's office for their supplies, in posting notices and in making their returns to the Auditor after each registration perior. Yours truly. "W. A. DEHORITY, "State Examiner."

Copy of Attorney-fWeaeral'a Opinion. "Indianapolis, May 14, 1912. "Gentlemen:

"To your inquiry touching the com

pensation of members of the Registration Board, I beg to respond aa follows:

"The registration statute (Acts 1911,

p. 3ii) in Section 6 provides:

"The expense of registration and preparation therefor, and returns thereof, shall be paid out ot the county treasury by the Board of Commissioners as election expenses are paid. "Section 16 of the act provides: "Each member of the election board shall receive for his services at the rate of J4.00 per day, for the time

necessarily engaged in the discharge of

his duties as such member. "Under this section and under the

construction which has been given by

the Supreme Court to statutes contain

ing analagous provisions, I am of the opinion that the members of the registration board are respectively entitled to $4.00 per day for each day they are

In session, that is to say the time from

one morning until the next morning Is

counted as one day, and they are en-: titled to one day's pay for services rendered during the day and night constituting the twenty-four hours. The pay for services while bo in session is the only pay to which clerks of the board would be entitled. "The inspector' is entitled to pay for his services In going to the Auditor's office for papers and supplies, posting notices and taking the returns of registration to the, Auditor's office. The pay to which. he Is entitled under the law for these services is "at the rate of $4,000 day, for the time necessarily engaged in the discharge of his duties:' for Instance if it should take him a fraction of a day to go to the Auditor's office, he would be entitled to a fraction of a day's pay, and ao for any other service that the la wlmposes up-

!on him. His pay is 'At the rate of $4.00 'per day for" the time necessarily' employed. These payments should be jmade after , an Itemized claim, duly verified as required by law, has been 'filed with the Board of Commissioners land allowed by the Board. ! "I have the honor to be.

"Very respectfully yours, "THOS. M. HONAK. . . "Attorney Genegal."
