POLICEMAN BEATS
MAN INSENSIBLE
Without Provocation, Accord
ing to Testimony, Magnelli
Clubbed Fred Shickley

Fred Shickley, 2142 Greenwood
street, according to testimony given in
police court, was attacked practically
without provocation by Officer L.
Magnelli and beaten until insensible.
The argument that resulted in the
beating started in a quick lunch. Of
ficer Cope, who was with Magnelli at
the time. did not appear as a witness
in Magnelli's behalf.
Shickley was in the lunch room tell
ing some facts about the Philadelphia
police with whom he had been ac-
quainted. The local officers started to
draw comparisons between the Har-
risburg police and the Philadelphia
officers, 1t was brought out.
An intoxicated man whose name
could not be learned and whom the
officers neglected to arrest also got in
the argument and started to give his
opinion on the matter. Shickley left
the restaurant but returned when he
missed his car home.
Threatens to Sue Officer
The drunk continued to give his
ideas and Shickley insisted in knowing
what he had in the natter Mag
nelli demonstrated with him for ques-
toning the drunk and, according to
lilS OleEeu, uldue l1e lESl
insulting remark. One remark brought
on another until Shickley told Mag
nelli that IF he wasn't hiding behind
badge he could lick the stuffing out
of him." Magnelli drew his mace and
without telling Shickley he was under
arrest proceeded to beat him up"
Shickley declared that he did not even
make an attempt to get away from
the mace because he had offered no
resistance and would not beat a dog
as Magnelli had beaten him." After
he was practically insensiblc he was
dragged unresistin~ from the res
taurant. His coat torn to shreds was
exhibited at the hearing, showing
where it had ben torn after he had
been beaten when he was being
dragged from the room.
Shickley was taken to the Harris
burg Hospital and his lacerated scalp
stitched. His head was swathed in
bandages at the hearing. He wore
his shirt soaked with blood and eX-
hibited his collar, likewise crimson.
Shickley had two witnesses present to
testify to the truth of the story and
defied the police to furnish evidence
that he was, or ever had been, of a
quarrelsome nature or that he was
known to be drinking man.
ShiclSley was discharged after being
asked if he thought he had a suf-
ficient lesson for attempting to resist
an officer" The last remark started
the argument again and Shickley de-
clared that he would bring suit against
the patrolman.

Not Khaki At All.

How do you pronounce khaki
has become quite a question The
answer is you don't have to pro-
nounce it at all. The regular Uni,
ted States army uniform is not
khaki at all, but 20 D" and this
stands for olive drab. Speaking
"texulelv," and perhaps technical
ly, the Textile World Journal points
out the uniforms now worn by
the regular army and MALTA
should not be designated as KHAKI. "
This word deSignates a color, is of
East India origin, coming from the
word KHAKI, meaning dust 1t is

Poultry a Good War Crop.

Poultry has been called the crop
never fails. 1t offers one of the best
ways of increasing food productio
on short notice. Poultry uses fe ed
more economically probably tina n
any other class of farm animals
when it is carefully handled. 1t
will produce a pound of meat or
eggs on four pounds Of grain when
protein concentrates are fed. Pull
lets will begin laying in from 6 to s
months. Cockerels are ready for
market at the age of II to l6
weeks.
According to H, L. Kempster of
the University of Missouri College
of Agriculture there is good money
in poultry and eggs if the flock is
properly managed. Very little Cap
ital is required and expensive stock
and equipment are unnecessary.
Careful management and feedin g
are more important than expensiv e
equipment The College of Agricul :
ture has issued a number of publ
cations which will be invaluable to
