DISTRICT ATTORNEY
FOR NEBRASKA
Omaha newspapers are giving
prominent mention to William J.
Froelich, formerly of O’Neill, as the
next United States Attorney for Ne
braska in succession to James C.
Kinsler, the present incumbent.
For some years Mr Froelich serv
ed as assistant district attorney un
der Mr. Kinsler, where he was re
garded as the “ace” of the staff on
prohibition matters. As a result of
his success there, he was called to
Washington when this administral

made a special assistant to the At
torney General of the United States,
with headquarters in Washington.
Since assuming his new post, Mr.

Florida and is now temporarily in
Nebraska in the same work. As a
result of his success in Florida and
Nebraska he is said to be very h'gh
ly regarded by those in authority at
Washington.
Mr. Froelich’s personality and
fairness have made him a great many
friends among the profession who
are undoubtedly urging his appoint- i
ment.
His many O’Neill friends rejoice in
his success.

ANOTHER BASEBALL PLAYER
JOINS TROSHYNSKI FAMILY
Atkinson Graphic: Otic of Holt
county's families long famous for its
contribution of ball players to teams
in this vicinity is well on its way to
producing a full team in the second
generation. Tuessday at the Atkin
son general hospital a son was born
to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Troshynski,
making the fifth boy in the second
generation, one other belonging to
Henry and three in the family of his
brother, August.
For the past fifteen years or more,
members of the Troshynski family
have played on Atkinson, Emmet and
O'Neill baseball teams. There are
seven boys in the family, every one
of them good players. They are:
August, Tom, Dan, Jack, Bill, Hank
and Mike. August and Henry are
the only ones married. It would seem
quite impossible that the boys in their
families could grow up without be
coming baseball players.

and dashed to safety on a cultivator.
Mr. Purnell arrived with a gun and
pint an end to the situation by killing
the dog. Mr. and Mrs. Purnell live
