HELD
 TO RECALL > F|CKERT
(By Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19.-Recall of Charles M. Fickert, district att torney of San Francisco county was sought in an election held here today.
 Official aspects of the event were swallowed up in nationwide contro yersy over Fickert's activities in ob- taining the indictment and trial of persons accused of murder in connec- tion with bomb explosion which kill ed ten persons here July 22, 1916 in a preparedness parade. Fickert's friends took the position that his re. call was sought because of these cases which resulted in one sentence of death, one of life Imprisonment and two acquittals, with one case not vet adjudicated. His opponents asserted that his activities against the de- fendants were not warranted by facts or evidence, and accuses him of "per- secution." Magazines throughout the country, and some men in public life, took sides as to the propriety of these prosecutions.
 Fickert's opponents today were Charles Sweigert, who ran second in the last election for district attorney, and Frank P. Haynes. Sweigert was a member of the police commission just after the fire of 1906. Haynes took an active part in politics here some years ago.

One chaperon may accompany a group of girls, according to the ruling, but no girl may participate in swim ming meets under amateur oraniza. tions without this attendant.
 On account of the ruling Pacific coast swimming promoters figure that it will cost over s2OOO to bring Miss Durack here for the series of meets in which it is intended to enter her. Plans are also under way to nave other Australian girl swimmers come here under the guidance of the same chaperon, and they will be brought over seas if the cost is not too great.
 A similar ruling of the Amateur Athletic union of America states that girls under 21 years who swim under it's direction may demand chaperon, but the promoter of the meet is giv- en the privilege of either accepting or rejecting the demand

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19.-Aus- tralian girl swimmers who visit the United States in the future must be accompanied by chaperons, and the promoters of the meets in which the swimmer appears must pay the ex- penses of this guardian as we'll as those of the swimmer.
 This ruling was made recently by Australian amateur sporting authoei- ties, according to word reaching here. The first one to be affected by the ruling will be Miss Fannie Durack worlds champion woman swimmer, who is contemplating a trip to Ameri- ca in the near future for a number of meets in Pacific coast and other states. v

Why People Haven't Enlisted.

Perhaps you have been quietly Won
dering why there has not been great
rush on the recruiting offices, why en-
listment has been so slow. In the Sep
TENDER American Magazine, writer
says:
Il read an article the other day by
a man who expressed wonder that our
people should be so 'apathetic' toward
this war. He contrasted the slow,
quiet enlistment that has been taking
place this summer with the enthusiast
tic rush to the colors in 81 and In '9S.
If he had lived out here in Indiana in
stead Of in New York, if he had been
as close to the heart of our people as
am, with my small-town daily, he
would not have written that article.
Our folks are not apathetic; they are
dead in earnest. But the difference be-
tween today and 81 is that the boys
of 81 enlisted for three months holi-
day, to do the rebels up and be home
in time for Thanksgiving dinner with
the folks. Our people have had two
years of the most thoroughgoing cor
respondence course in the horrors of
war that the world has ever known
There's no glamor in the business for
us. We know that war is matter OF
wet trenches. and DEATH and horrible
suffering. Every day for two years
our papers have described It to US. BY
George! 1t raises my estimate of the
human race to see men 81, knowing as
they do, exactly what they are going
to. and how many of them will never
come back
