OTTAWA CONFLICT
TWO BOYS LAID OUT IN EARLY

TAI TACTiCS-SNA IN HOS
PlTAL WITH INJURED HEAD
AND cPiNE.

Athletic relationship between the
Ottawa and Streator high schools
never was nearer the breaking point
than they are today as result OF
yesterdays football game in which
StreatOr, with true Bottlehouse agl'
ity, defeated Coach Biggs' boys after
placing one of them in the hospital
and making the other fit candidate
for hospital berth.
Earl Snarr. star quarterback, is now
in Streator suffering from injuries TO
his back and neck as result OF VI
! cious kick given him with the appar-
ent intentions OF putting his out.
Harold Woodward, whose work pro.

in the early stages Of the battle--and
naturally enough. Streator won. The
score was l3 to 0.
Caught I'm the act of pnnishing
| Woodward and Snarr after they had
been downed, youth named Dough
erty was expelled from the game.
His conduct was such that he probably
never will compete in another athletic
contest in which Ottawa or other La
Sale county teams are interested in.
The attack was SO deliberately con.
cocted before the game that Coach
Biggs limited after Streator's mis-
placed victory he would take steps to
prevent any more contests between
the two schools. With Snarr and
Woodward in the lineup there is not
the semblance OF doubt but Ottawa
would have wiped up the gridiron
with their antagonists and big score
would have shown the local boys the
real premiers in play

The greater part Of the Wednesday

was devoted to the disposal of the case
in which movement had been started
for the purpose Of lettering the con
dition of six small children in the town
of China. The case which had been
continued from Wednesday, Aug. IS
had Its origin in the complaint of Mrs

by their parents. The children in ques-
ton are Lena. aged IA years: 1nez

ty. and after an extended hearing the
arguments or counsel for both sides
declared that the allegations OF the
complainant were true, and upon the
consent of Mrs. Hunt, the State agent
to receive the children they were plac-
ed temporarily in her care.
Another case Of similar nature as
the foregoing was that of Roland and
Linwood Robinson Of Rome. children
of Oakley and Grace Robinson. The
complainant was Mrs. Hunt, and at
the close Of the hearing the children
were temporarily placed in her care.
The last case of the day was that
Of Alphonso Carter (colored) or War
rem and Mrs. Cora Thurston of China,
who We're arraigned upon statutory
charge, it being alleged that the wo-
man had been living with Carter in
a shack at Warren for about a month.
The two respondents waived examina-
ton and pleaded not guilty. but prob

TENDER term of the superior court Mrs.
Thurston secured her bail and Carter
hopes to secure his this morning.
