His journey followed denial by the
United States circuit court of appeals
of his petition for new trial on the
ground Of alleged misconduct of the
jurors.
The final chapter Of the fnancier's

federal district court had Eeen sum-

Hamilton Lewis would endeavor to
obtain a writ from him so as to be
able to take Walsh off the train
The ground on which the writ might
be asked was not revealed, but it
was reported an allegation would be
made that other than members of the
grand jury were present when Walsh
was indicted.
1t was learned, however, that San

that carried Walsh was scheduled to
cross at Rock Island at 1926. After
that, it was said, any action to OBJ
tain his liberty would have to be
brought in another FEDERAL district

utat:on as an orator or aebater in the
high school finds himself eagerly
sought at this time of the year by
members Of the debating societies, and
will be rushed almost as much as was
the prospective fraternity pledge last
week.
Every year the debating organiza-
tions lose several men by graduation
and failure to return to school; hence
at the beginning Of the school year
they are particularly anxious for new
material" Debaters who have made
record in the interscholastic con-
tests, or who are known to have been
strong men" in their preparatory
schools are sought; for they will be
likely candidates for the debating
squad this year.
Even now the debating societies, are
looking forward to the debating sea-
son which begins about Christmas
and are trying to forecast how many
men each Will be able to place" on
the squad. Consequently the societies
adopt the rushing" tactics of the fra
ternities to get the best men.
The first meetings of the societies
were held Saturday night. The five
societies which met are: the Union
Literary, the NJ. s. u, the Athenaen,
the New Era, and the Bliss Lyceum.
