Roller Skating Clubs
Season, Like All Other
Good Things, Has End

was one of those devotees of the
art who took it so to heart that
he owned his own skates.
If you think this person was
unnoticed you should have seen
the gallery. He skated alone.
There was also young lady
who was dolled for the occasion.
She was dressed just like the
Norwegian expert who gives ex-
hibitions at the Arena ice rink
in Seattle.
She had a military suit, sedged
with silver braid and a little
skating hat, all in a bunch. She
also skated alone.

At eight bells, gong was rung
and the skaters slipped into low.

got some thrills out of their eff
forts.
Vote Season a Success.
The more matured members
and the kids mingled soda pop
with the comforting heat of the
stove. Gallons of the stuff dis
appeared and everybody kept
their heads.
From time to time the gong
whanged and the concertino hit
new tune, while the skaters fol-
lowed the different instructions
of the electric sign, such as
Gents and their partners" or
Ladies alone" etc.
Amidst much kidding and
laughter the skaters tired one by
one. Late in the evening the
club officials declared dividends
and the party turned out the
lights and went their different
ways, strong for a new club next

REC0B

Six hours after Detective Price

day by Chief of Police Smith, his
son Frank, age 10, was arrested
in Ell Paso, Tex, it developed to-
day.
Young Recob was wanted here
for alleged completely with his
partner, Vern Siedelman, in TAX
ing two young Tacoma girls on a
| joyride and for an alleged assault
on one of them, 14-year-old
girl.
Following the suspicious cir

Recob's escape Nov. 3, when Of

arrest him, his father was dis

suspicion of having aided in the
getaway.

The coincidence of the detec-
tive's reinstatement and the ar
rest of the boy on the same day,
following closely upon the ac-
quittal of Siedelman in the SUI
perior court two days ago, caused
considerable comment in official
circles today.
The police were not ready to
say who gave the tip which led
to the discovery OF the boys
whereabouts.
When arrested in Ell Paso,
Frank Recob was accompanied
by wife. They were going un-

Recob was not married when

charges against him in Tacoma

WASHINGTON,D. d. c., Feb.
IA tremendous struggle to
overthrow the ancient method of
doing things in the dark is i'm.
pending in the U. s. senate.
The executive session is used
to prevent the public from hear
ing anything about the qualifica-
tons of appointees selected by
the president, and the secret roll
call which determines whether q
man is confirmed by the senate
is one method of lodging respon-
sibility to the voters.
Comes to Head I'm Rublee Matter.
The fight to abolish the secret
executive session has reached q
climax in the case of the appoint
ment of George Rublee to the fed
eral trade commission.
Rublee was selected by Presi-
dent Wilson last summer while
congress was not in session. Now
the senate must confirm or reject
his appointment.
Senator Gallinger of New
Hampshire (the state from which
Rublee was appointed) has as
serted his rights" as a senator
to oppose Rublee because the lat.
ter is personally Objectionable. y
Under the pleasant fiction known
as senatorial courtesy" 1t is
usual to refuse confirmation to
any appointee who is personally
Objectionable" to another senator
What Polls Shows.
n, however, record roll call
vote could be secured on any APP
pointee, senators would not dare
TO vote against a good appoint
ment merely because some sena-
tor demanded il as a Courtesy.

develop in congress.
The resignation caused partic-
ular surprise in Washington az
Garrison was regarded as one OF
the strong men of the admins

WHO WILL III BE?

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. IL.
Who will President Wilson
name as secretary of war? This
is the question which is upper
most in official circles today
following the resignation of
Lindley NJ. Garrison.
Among those who are most
prominently mentioned are Sec
rotary Lane of the interior de-
partment; Franklin ID. Roose-
welt, assistant secretary of the
navy, and Swager Sherley, chair
ma nof the house fertilization
subcommittee.
Garrison i'm Seclusion.
1t is known that the president
intends to select a man who is
thoroughly familiar with the de-
tails of the military situation, so
that the national defense plans
may be carried forward without
hitch.
Garrison, whose resignation
was accepted by President Will
son last night, is in seclusion in
New York today. He was taken
to the home of George Leary, a
dredging contractor, Immediately
on his arrival from Washington.
Refuses to Talk.
The former escretary refused
to discuss his resignation and
parried all questions.
Withheld support.
Correspondence between the
president and Garrison indicated
the break occurred because Will
son would not ''irrevocably"
support the war secretary's con-
tiuental army plan. Also, be-
cause Garrison opposed the adj
ministrations program of setting
definite time for Philippine in
dependence.

Sc nate Habit
OF SECRECY IS
UNDER ATTACK

/ have just polled the entire
senate on the question of whether
the senator's will favor making the
Rublee appointment roll call a
matter of public record, as was
done once before in the case of
winthrop More Daniels through a
fight forced by a few progressive
senators who refused to be bound
by the secret session" gag.
Thirty-six of the 90 senator's
have replied to the request that
they state their position for or
against making this roll call pub
lie. OF these, 22 senators favor
turning on the light. Among
them are both the Washington
solons. They are:
Want Fight I'm Open.
Ashurst, Borah, Chamberlain,
Cummins, Hitchcock, James,
Jones, Kenyon, Lane, Lea, Mar
tine, Myers, Newlands, Norris,
Oliver, Overman. Poindexter,
Sheppard, Sherman, Thomas,
l1llman, ana works.
The question has been made
even more vital by the nomination
of Louis ID. Brandeis as justice of
the U. s. supreme court and the
secret fight to be made before the
subcommittee of the judiciary
committee to prevent his con-
firmation.
The public will want to know
the grounds on which the sena-
tors opposed to Brandeis base
their refusal to confirm, and
those favoring the appointment
will make every effort to throw
open the senate doors so that the
whole fight, including the final
roll call, may be made In the
open, where it ought to be.
