Assistant Manager Taylor Of the
Piedmont this afternoon gave the fol-
lowing statement to The Georgian con-
corning the suit:
when this case comes to trial Wen
be able to show to the satisfaction of
the court and all concerned that this
woman has absolutely no grounds for a
suit for damages. The hotel detective
did enter her room-we make no denial
of that fact-but Wen show that he had
ample and perfectly good grounds for
his action, and Wen further show that
Mrs. Walker wasn't Inundated, either.
The detective didn't force an entrance
to the room. He raped on the door
and was admitted by Mrs Walker. We
feel perfectly safe in what has been
done. and have no fear whatever Of the
outcome of the suit

him in Detroit not only caused a
strike of his fellow ball players but
threatened organized baseball's future.

Archbishop Ireland was the principal
speaker at the recent national conven-

America. No man in the United States
speaks with more representative force
for his Catholic brothers and sisters
than does Archbishop Ireland. In his
address at the recent Catholic Union
convention he referred TO the duty of
every American citizen to support the
government of our country and its con-
slitution, and further said: 'The sa-
loon is our greatest enemy. 1t blights
