SCHOOLBOY ACCIDENTALLY
KILLED BY CLASSMATE
LADS SKULL CRUSHED BY 12
POUND SHOT
Dale Norton Receives Fatal Injury
at Vermont Street School When
Boy Who Is Training Throws
Heavy Missile

Dale Norton, fifteen years of age, a
pupil at the Vermont avenue school,
died at the Red Cross hospital at an
early hour yesterday morning from the
effects of an injury received from T.
pound shot hurled by Joseph Holiday
while practicing on the school play
grounds Thursday afternoon.
When injured young Norton was
dazed, but not rendered unconscious.
Norton was standing near a group of
athletes, who were training for COM
ing interscholastic meet, and at the
time was talking to Miss II. E. Hunt,
the principal of the school. Holiday
was practicing with 12-pound shot,
near the spot where Norton was
standing.
Suddenly Norton fell to the ground
with a cry. Miss Hunt quickly ordered
Norton taken to the school building
Physicians were called and examined
the lads head. Then the order was
given to send the boy to the hospital.
After some delay, the boys mother
was communicated with and was hur-
ried to the hospital. BY the time she
arrived there the boy had relapSed into
Inconsistencies. From that time un-
til death the lad did not recover con-
seriousness.
Holiday. in speaking of the tragedy
afterwards, SAID that he dld not no
tice Norton. In fact, he claims that
he did not see any one nearby at the
time. He was interested in training
and failed to watch others. thinking
that they would not come within range
of the shot.
Gloom shrouded the school yester-
day.
Everyone seemed to feel the sorrow
that prevailed.
Young Holiday was prostrated by
ihe news of the death of his room
mate.
Though the case was an accident,
the coroner will not hold an inquest
over the dead lads remains, as all
circumstances surrounding the sad af-
fair are known.

hat off and he stood with his bald pate
glimmering through the dusk. No
sooner did Ollie Morosco see the hair
less poll of Michael shining up at him
than he recognized the fighter and
cried You Mike Sullivan, come here
and allow me to punch you," and he
did so and the stage careers of Mike
Twin Sullivan and AL Kaufman were
thereby brutally cut short.
From nine in the morning until three
yesterday afternoon did the indefati-
gable scrappers go through their stunts
and cry Down with King Philip"
and Don John, Don John" and all
that time did they flourish their swords
right gallantly and then their young
ambition was blasted. The question
which must be decided is would the
pair have gone on when the play IS
given if they had not been discovered?"

If the bald pate of like Twin Sull-
on the attention of Oliver Morosco of
the Burbank theater, the hairless one
might have become real actor man.
This is the way it ha- pened: Yes
terday morning Mike and Al Kauf-
man were invited by Harry Mestayer
to attend the rehearsal. His invitation
made a nice noise to the two so they
accepted.
The play in process of construc-
ton was "In the Palace of the King"
The two sat in one corner os the stage
and watched the actors go through
the business of the play
When Desmond, arrayed in robes of
state, stalSed upon the scene Mike
whispered to his co-pug Gee, he looks
like a real king, all right, all right"
and the youthful wonder from the
north agreed with his lightweight
friend.
Are Taken for Supes
Then the supers We're to be drilled
and Ollie Morosco was about to faint
from evaporation when he spied the
two huskies sitting demurely in one
corner. For q moment he eyed them
and then shouted:
Here you two. get into this. What
you ought to be doing is hustling lum-
her on a San Pedro dock. What do
you think this is; rest room for old
ladies, maybe? Huh! You for these
swords and when I tell you, you yell
Down with King Philip"
The two stalwart gladiators eyed
each other with large broad grins ON
their battered countenances. Mestayer
sidled up to them and said GO to it,
Mike Ee an actor, AL
So they did and Mike and AL shouted
'Dowu with King Philip as noisily
as the most leather lunged supe OH the
stage.
Kaufman seemed to think that
Michael the bald was not doing as we'll
as he should. so he handed the light
weight a loving punch and said 'Aw
be game, you Mike Sullivan. Yell
right like I do. You yell like you had
the pip. Come OH in, the waters fine"
Hairless One Is Betrayed
Then Mike with his shrill piping
treble lifted up his voice and cried
Down with King Philip" and then
Don John" and Kaufman, the child
phenomenon, also made noises with his
young bull moose voice.
Towering above the rest of the stage
soldiers by a foot, the deep vibrant
tones Of the mighty puncher echoed
through the empty theater.
Then Mike got excited by the action
of the play. He wasn't going to let
the beautiful and good heroine come
to any harm while he was there to act
the part of the recsuing kid. So when
the hated mimic sovereign again came
on the stage and the soldiers again
shouted Down with King Philip"
Mike, in his anxiety for the lovely
gurrul. also shouted Down with the
King" and raised his sword violently
in the air. Alas, it was the last act
in his histrionic career. The force of
the enthusiastic gesture knocked his

A petition for the opening and

yesterday denied by the board of pub

The prayer of the petitioners could
not be carried out as Fifth street, if
Strengthened according to the proposed

1t had been advocated that another

The board of public works has no

CHICAGO, April GA dispatch to
the Tribune from Madison, Wis, says:
Football will be played at Wiscon-
sin next fall, but big intercollegiate
games with Michigan, Chicago and
Minnesota will be cut out of the sched-
ule.
For six hours last night the faculty
of the university argued the football
question. Marked opposition to the
game that had been shown of late
in faculty meetings appeared to be
broken down and it was nip and tuck
between the adherents and opponents
of the game until the meeting was
adjourned.
President Van Hise, who has been
the champion of the students for the
cause of football, left his chair to lead
the discussion in favor of the game.
Dean Birge. VINO has been strong for
the game all the way through, warmly
supported him. Professors Turner and
Munroe, who have advocated the sus-
pension of the game ever since the
agitation started, made a last effort
for the suspension of the game, but
their efforts We're in vain.
The firm attitude the students have
taken In the matter won over the
wavering members of the faculty and
the majority was in favor of retain
ing the game.

COUNCILMAN SMITH OBJECTS TO
NEW RULE
The one-car Length Stop Practice
Arouses Ire of City Lawmakers
Who Threaten to Make Change by
Legislation

Assistant City Attorney Hewitt yes
terday prepared the ordinance which
will he passed by the council Monday
afternoon compelling the street cars to
stop at street intersections instead of
in the middle of the block, as now is
the case.
Councilman G. A. Smith is the father
of the new ordinance and he considers
himself involved in one of the biggest
fights against the street car companies
of his official career.
IT don't know what half-baked idiot
formulated this order for stopping the
cars in the middle of the block, but
that order will have to be rescinded 4"
said Mr.. Smith yesterday. "The street
car companies seem to have gained the
impression that they own Los Angeles
and everything in it, but they will
wake up some day and find the people
have something to say.
sit is claimed by the companies that
the order was issued to draw up one
car length from the street intersections
in the business district, in order that
cars following might come up behind
and discharge their passengers.
II have made careful study of this
proposition for weeks and l will pledge
my word that in only one case out OF
every seven is there car following
the one that stops in the middle of
the block.
st have stood on street corners in
every part of the business district for
hours at time and counted the cars
and / am positive that one in seven is
the correct ratio.
1T is outrageous that the public
should be made to run half block to
catch six cars in order that the seventh
orb n n RI
charge its passengers on the street
crossings.
"It will happen no more il anything
can do will prevent it and after Mon
day believe we will see an improve
ment."

MOTHERS CONGRESS WOMEN
PREPARE THEIR QUARTERS
MANY WILL BE ENTERTAINED IN
HINES
Sufficient Funds Have Been Raised
by Local Circles to Guarantee a
Good Time-over 200 Delegates
Are Expected

The difficulties Mrs. w. w. Murphy,
president of the federation of Child
Study circles, and her committees have
been facing in finding entertainment
for the delegates to the National Con-
gress of Mothers to be held here in
May, have been swept away.
1t is now assured that all the wo-
men will be comfortably taken care of,
and great relief has come to the minds
of the mothers of the city.
When Mrs. Murphy first began to
make her plans for the entertaining of
the visitors, she discovered, to her con-
sternation, that such large reservations
had been made for the Shriners, who
will be here at the same time, that
there was but little room in the hotels
for the delegates to the Mothers con-
gress. Los Angeles has hundreds of ho-
tells but the Fiesta rush has been un-
precedented. But finally the matter
was adjusted so that there will be
ample room for the $50 women who
will be here May 7-S-9-1O.
Hotel Alexandria will be headquar-
ters for tie officers and the other dele
gates viii. be housed in other hotels and
in private residences. A long list of
those who are to be entertained with
out cost, has been provided for and
others are to be boarded in private
residences for one dollar day. A large
number of those coming are wives of
Shriners and for them it will not be
necessary to make provision.
The different circles of the city have
been giving a series of teas and enter
tainments for some time back to meet
the expenses of the congress, and a
sufficient fund is assured already, one
circle last week giving an entertain
ment that netted $100.
Mrs. Theodore w. Birney of Chevy
Chase, Wash, who founded the first
Child Study circle ten years ago, is
now in Mexico and will be one of the
PRINCIPAL speakers of the congress.
