mer attorney general of the state of
Washington, and who is now located
at Omaha.
Preceding the address there was a
half hour of song, Mrs. E. II. Wescott
leading the young men in this fea
ture of the evening the members of
the class found much enjoyment in
I'lm diversion and at the close of the
'. informal songfest. Airs. Wescott gave
!a few selections that were very much
appreciated. "
Mr. Lee in the opening of his re
marks disclaimed the origination of
the theught of the address which he
! had heard from the lips of James M.
Peck, solicitor general of the United
; States, at the convention of the lead
! ers in the public utilities work in
J the ration held recently in Chicago.
One of the main thoughts of the
address of the evening was that of
(the growing disregard for law in the
j nation and to support the argument
I that this wa3 one of the growing
evils of the day, Mr. Lee reada few
of the figures in regard to the in
creasing number of arrests made and
I of the crimes committed in which
! there were no convictions made. One i
of the most striking of these was i
from Chicago with over 300 mur-'
ders and only 4 4 convictions in the
year 1921. The disregard of the con
stitution by the people of the na
tion una also shown bv the number
of crimes aeainst the federal laws. ! Salaries are Two and a Half Times

The Atlantic. Iowa, team has a
record that any team would be proud
of. They have held the championship
i ot western Iowa for the past six
'years and have never been scored on
by any team from Omaha in that
perio'J. For that reason alone Man
agers Cerney and Shanahan have ap
proached and secured the services of
the above mentioned men and ar"
confident that the Olympics will
break the spell not only by scoring
but by beating the Iowa outfit. Never
the less a great battle is expected
and the fans in this part of the
country will witness a rare treat in
the art of football.
