Champion Judging Team to Be Guest of City of Omaha Members Will Be Banqueted Ij Chamber of Commerce in Appreciation of Honor Brought to State. Members of the championship Judging team of the l Diversity of Nebraska, entertained at the Hoiith Omaha livestock market last Wed nesday, are to be Invited to come again to Omaha this time as guests of the Chamber of Commerce, It was announced Thursday. Those sponsoring the plan declare Nebraska cannot afford to pass up the opportunity of having the team here as guests or the entire city. The formal reception given by the live stock market followed a precedent established several years ago. How ever, a* Everett Buckingham put It at the stockyards banquet, "this year we have more titan our usual amount of glory to crow about." The team this year is not only a championship team but it has won so many honors that all that Nebraska can do will not he too much, say those boost ing the proposition io bring them to Omaha as guests of the city. "The winning of champion honors at nil of Americas great livestock shows by Prof. w. W. Derrick and his select team of student Judges Is not a university proposition. but rather it is a reflection of the great ness of Nebraska’s agricultural strength," - declared T'rof. Howard J. Grantlich, lit ills address at the stock yards banquet." The very fact that this team has won more honors than has ever before been possible makes the work of vital Interest to the en tire stat"." Speakers at tlie stockyards affair were very warm In their praise of tha team, declaring that the honor was not so much an Individual matter but rather an affair which will long continue to he cited as one of Nebras ka's demonstrations of superority along the lines of producing real farmers. "Vou cannot produce a set of live stock Judges in a day, in a year, or in a four course of 'animal liusi*an dry at one of our large universities," said Bruce Mgt'ullough. editor of the Journal Stockman, "it take* some tiling more limn ability to appreciate good animal form. in other words you Nebruaka boys who have won this year's honors at all tin- Mg shows are living examples of what heredity will do. Vou have been horn to Judge good livestock. I claim that Nebraska should be proud that it is raising such boys."

ANOTHER OFFICER SLIGHTLY WOUNDED; V E S T SAVES HIM By GENE ROUSE. Newly appointed Chief of Detectives Ben Danbaum, wounded in Omaha’s bloodiest gun battle since the 1919 courthouse riots, lies aOlicholas Senn hospital fighting for his life. He was wounded leading his men on a barricaded negro at 118 South /Twenty seventh street. / The negro was shot and killed. / Danbaum was wounded by a charg of buckshot fired by Frank Mylar, negro, • moment after he had arrived with two emergency carloads of police and detectives to aid Detectives Palmtag, Nelson, Hughes and Summitt in the arrest of the negro, charged with a statuatory offense agains a negro girl, 17. /. "■ Detective Chief Noted Among Fellow Officers for His Courage ____J «'hief of Detectives Ken Danbaum was noted among his fellow offi cers for a courage that was little less than foolhardiness. After Mylar's gun-fire had driven Detectives Palmtag and Nelson from the house in which the negro had barricaded ldmself, Palmtag called the police station for rein forcement* and suggested that the officers br ing gas liombs wi.lh which to drive the man into the open. ‘‘Has bombs! Bunjt! ’ shouted Danbaum. “Let’s go out and bring that fellow in." The detective chief seized his overcoat and a shotgun, called for an automobile and. with Detective Kyan, slatted for the scene, fol lowed ’>v a carload of other olficer*. I Ms egariied Hanger. Approaching the house in which Mylar had entrenched himself. Dan baum continued to exhibit an utter disregard for the dangers confront ing him. His sole purpose in tnind was to capture the negro and he made a perfect target for the urmed desperado. His actions were typical of latn lifium. in his long career as a member of the police department he has neter l-een known to rtinoh and his narrow escapes ha'e been numerous. Before he was promoted to chief of detective* Iianhaum never hesi tated about leading a 1 aiding party into any kind of action, lie was always in front. He never sent men into a place lie would not go himself. IJanbaum was one of the men who saved the life of Mayor Ed P. Smith in the court house riot of September, 1920. Saved Mayor Smith. Willi Charles Van Deusen. now chief of police, Danbaum fought his way through the frantic mob which had surrounded the mayor, fastened a rope around his neck and was making every effort to hang the city's executive from a light pole at the corner of Six teenth and Harney streets. In the nick of time Danbaum saved Mayor Smith's life by cutting the rope, whisking the mayor Into an automobile and driving away, de spite the threatening roars of the disappointed mob. Ben Danbaum also was an ac tive iM.rticlpa.nt In one of the most notable gun battles Omaha has ever known, the shooting between six gangsters entrenched in a house on Pinkney street and a dozen police officer*, the shooting which resulted in the death of Detective Frank Kooney and the subsequent arrest of Beryl Kirk, who only last week was denied a parole from the state penitentiary, where he is now serving sentence for hi# part In the iffair.
