Willis Wilson, the young man who

from a South Bend car at TOwle av.,
is still in a semi-conscious condition,
but his physicians hold out some hope
for his ultimate recovery.
In an interview James A. Bell, of
Elkhart, Wednesday said: L am ex-
ceedingly sorry that my machine was
the cause of injuries to Mr.. Wilson.
All can say is that at the time of the
accident l was coming east on Lin

ing east on the road At Towle av.
saw two street cars coming toward
me, and thinking that no one would
get off the car, l speeded up in order
10 pass the car. Just at that time
Wilson jumped from the car with his
back toward me and my machine
struck him. In my excitement l put
my foot on the acceleratOr instead of
trying TO stop the car. L lost my head.
was insane for the moment My
machine Travelled at breakneck
speed. / struck a bridge and then
everything seems blank to me- My
apparent reCkleSSneSs of going on in
stead of stopping the car was due to
the excitement of the moment. 1 am
willing to take what is coming TO me,
but L am glad TO know that Mr.. Wilson
is probably going to recover from his
injuries. 1 do not wish the public to
form any harsh judgment until they
hear my story l thank The News
Times in Mishawaka for the generous
and extremely correct account they
give of the accident i am out on a
$1,000 bond and will appear before
Judge Feig on the date he has set for
my trial. l ask for no mercy I

COURT DECISION HITS
FEDERAL LEAGUE HARD
Chicago Judge Holds Pitcher
Johnson Must Remain
With Cincinnati.

CHICAGO. June "A blow was
handed the Federal league today when
Judge Foell. Of the superior court.
held that pitcher George Undfan)
Johnson must remain with the Gin
cinnau club OF the National league.
Johnson jumped from the National
league and signed a contract with the
ganizauOn, although he was under
contract with the Reds. The Cincin-
natl management was granted an in
junction restraining the pitcher from
playing with the outlaws and It was on
a motion TO dissolve the injunction
that today's decision was rendered.
The court refused TO dissolve the in
junction, making ii permanent. This
prevents Johnson from playing with
the Federals
The decision was based on the four
points raised in the case:
That Johnson was induced to sign
with the C/cinnati club by false rep
resentatiO<S.
That the seventh clause referring TO
the 'ten-day clause" by which play
ers can be dismissed on ten days no.
uce, makes the contract invalid, as it
is not reciprocal in it's effect.
1UdI the COIupldludHls Tic NAASlA-
natl club, can secure justice In suit
for damages.
That a negative covenant" Gin this
case the clause restraining the player
from playing with any other team
than the one contracted with during
the life Of the contract) cannot be en-
forced by law.
Refuses to Uphold Points.
The court refused TO uphold the first
point raised and pointed out that in
considering the "ten-day'' clause,
Johnson signed a contract after work
ing under a similar one the past year
at a much lower salary, that il was
hard to believe players would repeat
eddy sign a contract which they con-
sidered unfair. The court also held
that it was impossible for the COM
plainant to recover in a suit for dam
ages inasmuch as specific performance
will not be enforced in the courts and
refused to uphold the defendants
contention that a covenant" be en-
forced in law.
Judge Foell specifically upheld the
clause in baseball contracts
known as Section 7.

REMNANT FIGHT BEWEEN
STUDENTS GROWS HOT

wednesday the annual pennant fight
between the Seniors Of the Mishawaka
hlgh school and the Juniors reached
It's height. For the past few days the
hght has been going on. but the boys
almost reached fighting stage We'd
nesday morning. The first of the fight
began Monday evening when the Sc
Nor class of the school were enjoying
a picnic in the east end of the city.
The Juniors hung its colors, blue and
gold, from the flag staff at the high
school building. When the Seniors
returned TO find the pennant floating
from the school there was some in
tense feeling and at once preparations
were made TO remove it. After the
removal of the pennant, nothing more
was done until Tuesday evening when
the Juniors were again successful In
replacing the pennant to the staff One
OF the juniors daringly crawled out
on the Staff 40 feet above the sidewalk,
and tackled the pennant to the STAFF.
After lacking the pennant securely on.
so they imagined, the daring Junior
creased the pole, preventing the Sc
nlors from crawling out to remove it.
Until early Wednesday morning the
juniors stood about the building
watching their pennant, fearing that
the Seniors would make a second at
tempt to remove il. About o'clock
one Of the Seniors arrived at the
school early and with long rope sue
cessfully laSsooed the flag, tearing it
from the pole. The Seniors blue and
orange was then hoisted out with a
single rope, with a knot which will
make it impossible for the Juniors to
remove it, and it is feared that the
Seniors pennant will remain through
out the day and the commencement
exercises tonight.
