Some Sidelights on Omaha's
Invasion of the Twin Cities
Recriation Department Needs -
' More Money Before Fall Opening
By FR2D S. HUNTER.
The manager of the victorious Wil
cox Trux answers to the name of
Shrimp. It's his last name and said
to be bona-fide, too. All of which
goes to prove a name has no significance.
The banquet for the Omaha athletes
at the Minneapolis Athletic club
wound up at 9:55. And promptly at
10 p, x. Minneapolis ceases-to be an
oasis owing to a safety commission
which recently moyed the clock up an
hour. Thus three disappointed scribes,
who had early in the day made the
acquaintance of an affable and skillful
bar-tending person;,' wrapped them
selves in a snroud and crawled into
the hay only to discover the next day
that St. Paul heeds not the safety
commission's ukase by having1 learned
of the tea cup trick from a knowing
Orriahan early in the game. More
nrourning.

'Bloomington, Ind.. Sept. 18. Coach
Ewald O. Stiehm has discarded the
white striped jerseys and stockings,
worn by members of the Indiana uni

will appear this year wearing jerseys
and stockings of solid red. New hel
mets also will be used. They will
have sides of soft tan leather, to pro
tect the ears, while the crown will be
white with red straps across it,
forming a cross.
Besides the disappointment in los
ing so many men because of the war,
Indiana foot ball patrons will again
have to witness the home names on
Jordan field. It had been hoped that
the, new athletic Mia, east 01 me new
gymnasium, would be, ready when the

adopting a ruie wnitn wm-.wiuyti

Complaint was made that boxers
fail to keep their agreements to train
here, in some instances not arriving
until the day of the contest. The
commission and patrons of the sport
therefore are not given an opportun

' Omaha tobacco dealers will suffer
from the Minneapolis journey. - The
athletes discovered that ' the well
known and popular Camel still sells
for a dime in the twin cities. Tn
Omaha, the tax is 15 cents. So almost
every athlete on the trip loaded up his
grip with a dozen or so packages of
the dream sticks thus saving a jitney
on each pack. ? y
Johnson, hurler for the Lake Ath
letics, it was learned after the game,
is the crack pitcher of Minneapolis
and has been signed by the Minne
apolis American Association club. No
wonder the Murphys couldn't Con
nect. Duvall, who first sacked for the
Wilcox Trux, was formerly with the
Cantillon club before he turned "ama

. "Kid" , Delaware, the demon Armour
icorekeeper,, blew into, Minneapolis
with a pair of white shoes and fiVe

The Wilcox Trus-'were given the
shock of their lives Sunday night.
They felt pretty good after their vic
tory over the Armours, but they no
sooner'landed down town than they
were informed the Lincoln team had
walloped St. Paul, 5 to 0, and that
Dusty Miller, the Link hurler had
fanned eighteen men and permitted
but two nits. The Links play the
Wilcox Trux today and, if. (fee Trux'
have the old buck now as badly as
they had it Sunday night when they
heard the bad news, the game is Lin
coln's already. ; ' ,
The entire Gross Brothers team
was on the job to root for the Mur
phys. When the Gross Brothers,
originally scheduled to battle the
Omahans, were given the gate at the
last moment "so the Class - A team
could play the Class B lads,
the Gross crew became peeved and
promptly lined up with Omaha.
George JCermedy, Armour maViager,
played first with a split digit. He had
it all bandaged up. Kennedy tried
Miller out at first during the prac
tice, but Miller had never played first
in his life and he didn't learn any
more about it during the practice so
Kennedy took the joV himself and
played a hangup game. X,
Weiss Corcoran lived up to expec
tations by lacing out three hits. Weiss
has hit safely in every game he has
played, this year. Some record.
A gent named Postal umpired be
hind the bat in both games. Graves
and McCoy both had to split this cen
ter of the plate to get an even break
with hirri. ,
Bill Fox, who played second base
and managed the Rourkes a "decade
ago. was one of the sneakers at the
banquet at the Athletic club. Bill ia'l
working for the telephone company
in the twin cities. Five-minute talks
was the program so Bill tried to make
a speech and it took him half an hour
to sit down again. Evidently Bill had
practiced the l.igo because he dis
charged some beautifuhwords.
Roland Peterson, 'the cerubic mas
cot for the Murphys, was the hit of
the Athletic club banquet. He gave a
recitation. ' -
Jake Isaacson and Gebrge Kennedy,
both from Omaha pleas bear in

banquet. They said what they had
to"; say 'in thirty seconds. After a

weoe some relief to the athletes.x f

Earl North, who came to Omaha

The municipal recreation depart
ment owes $325 in salaries to em
ployes and has no money to pay them.
According to figures compiled by
Commissioner Hummel, the recrea
tion department needs. $4,609 to pull
through the yearT " ' ' f
Hummel and the recreation board
were given $20,000 with which, to run
the department'this year, $10,000 less
than last year. The $20,000 already
has all been spent and if there- is to
be any more municipal recreation,
money must be provided. -
Nine community.centers are sched
uled to open this fall, but they will be
delayed until after the first of the
year unless funds are obtained. Funds
also are needed for skating inspectors.
This last Hummel regards as import
ant because of the necessity of :-
spectors'in making skating safe on
the municipal ponds and lakes. , .
If the $4,609 is not , forthcoming,
the recreation department must sus
pend operations immediately, as it will
be unable even to pay salaries of em
ployes. Three hundred nd twenty
five dollars is now-due employes and
there is no money in the treasury to
pay them." ,
Htimmel's worries are not confined
to the recreation ..department, a he
needs more money to continue activi
ties' In the park department Park,
Kugel and.Jardine also are in need of
funds.
The shortages in funds were due
to come before the city council this
morning, but Commissioner Withnell
and Mayor Dahlman were absent, so
cn motion of Hummel, the matter
was laid ,over until a full council 4s
present. ' ' . . v
HALLER ANSWERS ;
ATTACKS UPON HIM
University Recent Declares He
is Strong In His Support of
the Government in the i
Present War)
F. L. Haller, member, of the board
of regents of the University of Ne
braska, has given out this statement as
his answer to attacks that have been
made on his Americanism:
"Not in answer to attacks made on
me, but because I feel it due the'eiti
zens of this state who made me regent
of the university, T deny that either
before we-entered the war or after
have I in thought, word or deed been
disloyal to the United States.
' "I Xvill not concede to any man,
whether native-b6rn, as l am, or.fot-eign-born,
a higher standard of
Americanism than mine. , I am doing
all I can and will continue to do'all
I can to uphold the i administration
and the government of the United
States, to which I yield absolute loy
alty and allegiance. ,
"This is no time for . dissension ,
among well wishers of our country. I
consider it the duty of every citizen
to render that service for which he
is best fitted. While I refuse to ad
vertise what I have done to help along
the Red Cross, the Libertybond and
other war campaigns, I may with pro
priety say that it has been my busi
ness for more than a quarter of a cen
tury to promote the yield and con
serve the agricultural products of the
state of, Nebraska and it "Is a matter
of public record that as soon as war
was declared, without waiting to be
called, I began my active service along
these linesand, --shall continue the
same so long as he war may last,
alike indifferent to praise or blame."
If the principal feels the reason was
not sufficient for such child to be sent
home the matter is not to be taken up
with the school nurse, but with the
director of health supervision.
"Under a new ruling of the depart
ment of health supervision no fumiga
tion is to be done unles advised by
this department. - If i you are , unde
cided about the advisability of not
fumigating, telephone the department
of health supervision for its decision
and let this department assume the
responsibility. . 4

LAW WILL STOP
CHILD MURDER TRIAL'
County Attorney Says Protest
of Bee Is Right, and Youth
Will Not Face Crim- . x
inal Trial. f'J-
o w
Little COncetto Circo, 12-year-oldl
Italian lad, will not undergo a jury
trial for the killing of his playmate,
Earl Cunningham, two weeks ago.
The law contains no provision for the-'
trial by jury of a boy under 16 years
of age.
Following The Bee's protest against
'the outrage of subjecting a 12-year-old
lad who, in a boyhood quarrel,
stabbed a companion to death, to the
stain of a criminal court trial before
the gaze of curious hundreds . and 4
bickerings of fe-hungry lawyers, cit
izens are up in arms and are appeal
ing to authorities to stop the farce
Ijegun in the name of justice.
County Attorney Magney, too, is
strongly against allowing young Cir
co to be tried by a jury.
"The Bee is right," declared the
county attorney. "The lad should not
be tried by jury for the death of his
companion. ' Personally, I am not in '
favor of any such plan and il l have
my way he will never come to trial.
"The only part the county attor
ney's office played in the arraign
ment of young Circo was the draw
ing up of a' complain under orders
by.Judge Sears, whof presided in ju
venile court when the lad's parents,
friends and attorneys dernanded a jury
trial. ,
' Judge Sears Orders Complaint
"The attorneys made a motion ask
ing trial by jury. Judge Sears sus
tained the motion and ordered the
county attorney's office to draw up. a
complaint , charging manslaughter,. -That's
all we had to do with the
matter. '
"The law is plain. The boy can
not be confined in jail oi a penitent
tiary. Nor does the statutes say a
boy of Circo's age may be tried by
jury the same as a grown person. y
"If I had my way young Circo
would be given a hearing in juvenile
court and then either sent to Kearney
industrial school for a term, to River-1
view detention home or given his
freedom. One of those three things
should be done and nothing else."
County Attorney Magney said he
was going to take the case tip with
Judge Sears in an attempt to forestall
any trial by jury.
The Circo boy was released from
Riverview detention home today after
$5,000 bond had been furnished by
friends ot the tamiiy on tne aoutn
Side. The-boy had been in the home
since juvenile court authorities took
hinf into custody. Accompanied by his
mother and several friends young y
Circo went to his home on the South
Side.
"I'm so happy to be home agairt
with my mother," said the little Ital
ian lad. ' j ,.y
No Preliminary; Examination. , v
The manslaughter complaint was
drawn up in County Attorney, Mag
ney's office and then sent down to
juvenile court. Probation Officer Mil- .
ler signed it and sent It down .to 1 .
policed station by Deputy Vosburgh.': '
The document was not legal then,
for Miller had neglected to swear to
his signature in court.
The probation officer's name was ,
scratched out at police station and '
Sergeant Wilson swore to and signed
the complaintj There has been no
preliminary hearing nor has the lad, '
been bound over to district court
