SUES FOR MONEY
 LOST IN GAMING
O. L. PURYEAR FILES ACTION AGAINST LOCAL PARTIES
 FOR s2,o0o
Claims L. Q. Cooper Flied a Bone to Make Good Any Lossas Ir- cured From Gamhlrg On
 Premises.

o. l.. Puryear yesterday filed an unusual suit in circuit court against l.. D. Cooper and w. J. Rogers, in which he seeks to recover the sum of S2,000 from the latter, which sum he claims to have lost at gambling on the premises of 7O1-703 Centra avenue.
 In the complaint it set forth Una a liquor license was granted on lne premises on the first of the year, ana that as a part of the license, a bond was required on the part of the county to make good any losses tha might incur from gambling which might take place on the premises or probably more specifically directed that no gambling shall take place on the premises.
 Attorneys Wood and Wood are counsel for the plaintiff, o. l.. Pur- year. and in the complaint they al lege that the plaintiff between Au- gust 1 and September 13 gambled or the premises and lost as much as i g, 900. They also charge that marked cards were used to get tht money by the parties with whom Puryear played, and that Puryear had no chance to win. They do not charge that Cooper or Rogers had any part | in the games, but rely on the connec- ton they had with the saloon license to make them defendants in this oth- CT action.

held April % and 20 this spring at

The matter has been put before Prin

given Manager Mcintyre orders to ask

it is possible the boys can take the

The track squad will be coached this
spring by D. A. Callahan, as Coach

FAMOUS BALL PLAYERS
ONCE SMALL TOWN GUYS

1t would naturally be supposed that
most major league ball players hailed
from some large town. where they could
be seen by big league scouts and earl early y
ball. but as a matter OF fact, most OF
them hail from villages little known TO
fame and lightly regarded by the census
takers.

Perhaps no one player on either the
Chicago or Philadelphia team came in for
more attention than Eddie Collins. He
was graduated from Columbia university.
and to look at him one would never guess
that he first saw the light OF day in

located is a rather difficult question to
answer. but II suffices 10 say that Ii is

promises to do exactly what he did
at San Francisco.
Another big feature in which the
lake will. play an important part will
be the demonstrations by Glenn Curtiss

droplane. This is the appliance with
which Curtiss recently startled the
world by flying far out over the Pacific
ocean at San Diego. alighting on water
and rising in the air again.
