QUESTION
COMES Up
AS TO PAPERS

The question Of issuing second citi-
zenship papers may become an issue
between Judge Lawrence Becker'e SUI
flee. in view of the fact that Judge
Becker may insist on their being Is
sued in the superior court which they
are not now. In the past second papers
have been issued in the federal court
before Judge A. B. Anderson in Ham
mond. or in the circuit court at Crown
Point before Judge McMahan.
Last week City Sealer Frank j.
O'Rourke appeared before Judge Beck
er saying that there were a dozen or
more applicants for second papers. and
from the clerks office he was Informed
ty Deputy Roscoe l1emstock that there
were none on hand. 1t was In this con-
nection that he intirnated that he might
insist on issuing second papers in his
court. Although it was later reported,
and the report published in Gary pa
per that Judge Becker would give
Clerk Ernest Shortridge until wednes-
Gay of this week to provide blanks or
&C. him for contempt, Judge Becker
i'd not issue the formal order and the
matter remains in statue quo.
Speaking of the matter this morning
issue the formal order. he believed that
the papers should be issued IN the su
Ierior courts. even though the work
would be an extra burden on the clerk
office.

top to make good showing
Hake's time in the quarter was 534
two seconds under Blair's Lake County
record but way above the Northern In
diana mark. In the half he made 2.05
which is better than anything ever
done in either association. Hake is
expected to take a first in Stages in

grab both events.
Mette made his eight points by win
ming the 30 yard run in 241 and get
ting second in the hundred yard dash.
Swanton took second in the high
hurdles which went in fast time. Cap
tain Hirsch added a point to Ham,
monds credit by getting third In the
half mile.
Ted" Jessup Works Again.
Hammond did not expect anything
better knowing the size of South
Bends squad. Coach Owens and Ted
Jessup both exercised their various
forms of influence on the team of FIVE

winning of three ffrsts by Hammond.
