March 10

The past weekend proved dis
aStrOuS one for local basketball
annals, both the highschool and
alumni teams meeting defeat at the
hands of outside teams. The highs
lost to Cameron, at that place, by
a 21 to 19 score and the alumni lost
to Hayward at Stone Lake by 26

In the school battle at Cameron,
the local high boys fought against
unusual odds, the small floor being
the principal handicap and the rough
playing of the proteges of the
Cameron high gave the locals a hard
time of it, Ladysmith failed to score
a field goal in the first half but
made 5 points on free throws, Cam
eron committing seventeen illegalities
in that period. The latter made
points on three goals from the field.
In the last half the locals and
Cameron broke even on field baskets
but the latter scored an extra point
on a free throw

Points on fouls: Jacobs 5, Erick-

One of the reasons for the defeat
Of the alumni at Stone Lake by the
quintet from Hayward was the un-
der-estimation Of the latter by the
local five.
In the week before the meeting
with Ladysmith the Hayward five
greatly strengthened their team by
the addition of a pair of star players.
The first half was almost over be-
fore the locals awakened to the
fact that strong team opposed
them, and the period ended 10 to 8
in Haywards favor. In the final
half the superior weight of the up
state five pushed them into a good
lead during the first few minutes,
but a display of speed and good
team work by the alumni cut it
down. The final score: Hayward 26,

D0|NCS IN COURT
JURY DlSAGREES IN META NOLL
AND MARY KELLY
CASES
TWO FINES FOR SELLING LIQUOR
Case AGAINST Fred Weed, Charged
With Burglary, Dis
missed

Circuit court, with Judge James
Wickham presiding, has been busily
engaged since Monday afternoon
grinding out the 33 cases on the
calendar for this term. At the time
of going to press the court was en-
gagged with the 'fact-forjury'' cases
and it is expected that the present
session will not be adjourned before
Monday or Tuesday of next week.
The first "jury-criminal'' case, of
the State of Wisconsin VS. Fred
Wood, was dismissed OIL motion of
the district attorney. Burglary was
the charge against wood, but as the
sum stolen amounted to only 65 cents
and as the state had out one witness,
a thirteen-year-old girl, it was not
thought advisable to prosecute, thus
saving the county the expense OF
trial.
The cases of the State of Wiscon-
sin VS.. Meta Noll, alleged propri3-
tress of a house of ill-fame, and the
State of Wisconsin VS.. May Kelly,
the latter charged with being an in
mate of the disorderly house, result
ed in a disagreement of the jury.
The case of the State of Wiscon-
sin VS.. Anton Svikel was continued,
the defendant to pay costs amounting
to $3O.15
The bastardy case Of tho State VS..
Charles Kinske was dismissed
Meta Noll was found guilty on
two counts of selling liquor without
a license, on the 14th and 22nd of
January and was fined 800 and
costs, or four months in the county
Jail, on each count.
The case of the City of Ladysmith
VS.. Henry Pepper was dismissed.
Both parties in the fact for-jury
action of Kieckhefer Box Company VS.
Gillette O'Leary Company consented
to continuance of the case.
In the case of o. L. Hotz vs.. Chas.
Palmer, the jury was waived and the
suit will be tried in the facts for
court.
The suit brought by Kinnicutt ct
al VS.. Joint School District No. / Of
the City of Ladysmith and the town
Of Flambeau was changed from the
third fact-fOr-jury case and will be
tried after case number 8 Of the
fact-for-jury cases.
Judgment for the defendant was
rendered in the garnishee acton
brought by the bank of Evansville
against Theodore Kurth and tn
State Bank Of Weyerhaeuser. TIE
same verdict was given in the fl
lowing case Of the Bank CT Evans
vile VS.. Theodore Kurth.
