MEDICAL COLLEGE DISCUSSED
Proposed Addition to State University
Considered by Committees

Proposed Addition to State University
Considered by Committees
That twenty-one state universities,
including all state universities of the
first rank, give full four years of the
medical course, and that tie Univer
sity of Wisconsin is the only state
university Of importance that does not
provide adequately for students who
desire to study medicine, was brought
ont before the joint meeting of the
legislative committees on education
this afternoon. The committees had
under consideration bill 70 S, which
provides $50,0G0 per anpum for the
establishment of college of medicine
at the university, equipped to give
the first two years of the medical
course. Itsswas shown that the medi-
cal authorities of the state, including
the officers of the State Medical Soci-
| ETY., the State Board of Health and
the State Board of Medical Examiners
together with large proportion Of
the leading physicians of the state,
favor the plan. Prominent medical
authorities of the country are agreed
that the first two years of the medical
course can be better done at an uni
versity than in college of medicine
independent of an university. That
an university which does not offer
clinical instruction can nevertheless
| do the clinical work to the best
advantage, was emphasized by letters
in support of the proposed plan from
the president of the American Medical
Association, the president of the As
ISOLATION of American Medical Col
on medical education of the American
Medical Associa ton.

BISHOP WINS AGAIN
Sheridan Drive Bill Again Side.
Tracked in Senate by Keno.
sha County Senator
MAY NOT BE REPORTED AGAIN

The Sheridan Drive Bill got another
black eye in The Wisconsin State Sen
ate on Tuesday afternoon when Sen
ator Bishop, of Somers, made a sue
cessful fight against the engrossment
of the bill and it was finally sent back
to the committee on roads and bridges.
1t has developed that other counties
in the state are taking an interest in
the fight against the bill as some of
the senators from northern counties
declared yesterday that the attempt
to build this road was manifestly I'M
just to sections of the state far from
the territory through which the road
passes. Many of the petitions signed
IN Racine and Kenosha county were
presented to the Senate on Tuesday
by Senator Bishop and a good deal
of a stir was caused by the dec1ara-
ton on the part of the Kenosha man
that the automobile owners of Mil
waukee and Chicago were seeking to
have the road built by the state for
their own uses. It was claimed in
the HedIcu ueDdIe l0dI the ROAD would
be used almost entirely as an auto
mobile road.
The victory of Senator Bishop in
having the bill sent back to the COM
mittee was signal one and the large
majority in favor of this action seems
to indicate that the Senate will oppose
the bill. Should the bill, which
originated in the Senate, be sent to
the House Assemb1yman Curtiss, of
this county, and Assemblyman Bell,
of Racine, are expected to make the
fight on it there. 1t is, however,
thought very possible at this time
that the bill will dielin the Senate
committee and never reach the
Assent bly,.

in her usual skillful manner two piano
solos, and did all the musical accom-
panying for the drill and tab1eaux;
and her work added not little to the
success Of the evening. Edward
Hubbard was aid to the commandant

MUST Do MORE WORK
Post Office Dept. Not Satisfied
With the Condition Of the
Roads in This County
POSTMASTER ASKED TO ACT

Fourth Assistant Postmaster p. ".
DeGraw is not satisfied with the con-
dition of the roads in Kenosha county
and he is still considering the elimin-
alton of the rural mail service if
something is not done to insure better
roads for the next winter. In January
letter was sent to Postmaster NAL
oney demanding that the roads be
improved and the recent report of the
Postmaster to the department is not
satisfactory, and the official has de-
bmanded more detailed report. The
people owning farms in the
county have done some work to inn
prove the roads, but they are still far
from the condition they should be in.
The State Geologist at the request of
the Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General is sending out to farmers in
all parts of this county suggestions
as to the proper care of the roads
but few of his suggestions
have been followed. In some of the
towns the roads have been scraped
and their condition is noticeably better
than it was two months ago, but it is
evident that the reports received by
the government officials are anything
but satisfactory. In speaking of the
matter this morning Postmaster NAL
oney stated that he did not want to be
hard on the farming communities,
but that it was his wish to have the
rural delivery continued and extended
in the county and that this would be
impossible if the farmers refuse to re-
pair the roads. In a short time the
town boards will meet to make appro-
priations for the year and it will be
up to these boards to take some
cognizance of this matter and make
some arrangements for road building.
The towns of Somers and Pleasant
Prairie have led the towns in road ap-
preparations for the past two years
and it is expected that large amounts
will be expended in these towns this
year.
The carriers have not filed any
formal complaints on the roads since
the first order was issued but it is GER
tain that even at the present time it
is almost Impossible for some of the
carriers to cover their routes in the
time allowed by the department for
the work

HELD BY GRAND JURY
Alleged Thieves Captured in Kenosha
Must Stand Trial in Chicago Courts


Theodore Thie1 and William Shields,
the two men arrested in this city a
month ago on charge of stealing a
Stearns Touring car, were he1dto the
criminal court by the grand jury
IN Chicago Tuesday afternoon and
they must stand trial in that court on
charges of grand larceny. Bail in
each case was fixed at $500 and the
men returned to Jail pending their
trials which will probably be started
next week. It is stated that the rel
atives Of the two men have promised
to pay all the expenses connected
with the capture of the automobile,
but the insurance company interested
has declined to make any settlement
and will insist that the men be placed
on trial. It appears that the case
against the two men is pretty clear
one.

ARGUE HOOKING CASE
Suit Against Windsor Spring Co. Taken
Up in the Supreme Court

The suit of William E. Hooking VS..
the Windsor Spring company, twice
tried in the Circuit Court for this
county and twice appealed to the SUI
preme Court, was taken up by the
highest tribunal of the state on Tues
day afternoon and the arguments pre-
scented to the Court. The defendant
is seeking to have the verdict of the
lower Court set aside and the case re-
manded for new trial. Under the
verdict Hooking recovered damages
to the extent of SIS, 900.
The decision in the case will prob
ably be handed down when the SUI
preme Court sits next month.
