Blaine Durbin proved q wise selec-
ticn to send against his former team
mates. They couldn't touch him until
he got ready and at that stage of the
game the Kaws had ice packed around
1t. Three clean and four scratches
were all registered off Durbin but they
netted three runs.
All the Kaws hit averaging two each
for a total of Is. Robinson, Lotz and
Sindelar all were easy enough for the
Indians after they got going. One
never can tell what the bushers will
do.
Moreover, the Kaws got by without
an error. Nine assists were all there
we're to make but they inserted a dou-
Bile play which goes to show that the
Kaws were sure enough raging. That's

Doctors Testimony.


Doctors Mann and Mercer dcscrib-
ed the wound in Mrs. Beattie's head
and both said that in their opinion
that death was instantaneous.
DR.. Mann described the wound
which the defendant said tho high
wayman inflicted on him as "a su-
perficial scratch" He related how
he had examined Louise Beattie's
body as it lay on the floor, pictured
the ugly gnshot wound near the
left side OF the noso and said that
the direction OF the shot was back
slightly to the right and tending up-
ward.
"If she had been standing in the

| husband fired the shot. would it have
| inflicted a wound such as dcscribed?"
This question put by Attorney l..

their feet with objections and the
court sustained them.

death Of the victim was instan,anc-
