be a colonel, a lieutenant colonel,
three majors and nine captains. The

Boys Deny Charge
They Force Selves
Upon Young Girls
Malcolm Linville, Gerald Hittle,
Harold Butler and Harry Scoggins,
arrested Saturday-night in East Oma
ha by deputy sheriffs, were released
after six days in the county jail Fri
day, no complaint having been filed
against them.
The four young men were taken
into custody, in company with four
young women, while riding in an
automobile on an East Omaha road.
The deputies alleged that the boys
were forcing their attentions upon
the girls. This is emphatically denied
by the boys, who say they were
merely showing courtesies to the girls
by taking them home from Krug park.
The girls have refused to complain
against the boys. The boys insist
they made no efforts to force their
attentions on the girls and that the
deputies were "romancing" when they
recited their story.
