WHAT SHALL BE THE RIGHTS
OF A CHILD BORN OUT
OF WEDLOCK?
When a girl who is not married
brings a child into the world what
shall be the rights of that child I'M
der the laws of the state of Illinois?
Shall such a child stand on the
same level having the same property
rights as any child regularly born
from a regularly married wife and
husband?
These are questions the Illinois
legislature is threshing out in con-
nection with a bill Concerning chill
dren born out of wedIOck. It is house
bill $40, introduced by Rep. s. P.
Roderick, endorsed by the Illinois
Committee on Social Legislation. A
brief for it by Judge Harry NJ. Fisher
of the morals court was made public.
yesterday.
The new law proposes to take the
word bastard" off the statute books.
The theory is that a boy or girl born
out of wedlock can't help it that the
parents didn't have a license to get
married, and therefore the sins of the
parents should not be visited on the
heads of the children through the
use of the word bastard"
Judge Fisher finds people taking
all kinds Of different slants at how
to handle the girl who brings a child
into the world without first legally
getting married. Some want to pun
ish her by making it crime to
have children out Of wedlock. Others
argue there is no reason in law or
morals why such child should not
be entitled to support, maintenance
and education at the hands of its
natural parents, according to their
means"
Some feel that the child's acct
dpnt Of birth should make no differ

1t is planned by a committee in

MOVIES OR NO MOVIES is THE
BIG OAK PARK QUESTION

What does this mean-thls appeal
for movies on Sundays? And in Oak
Park, too! It's another revolution.
Anyway, Judge FOell in circuit
court has dissolved the injunction
recently granted Chas. J. Carpenter,
representing the ministers of Oak
Park, which forbids the placing Of
the Sunday movie question on the
spring ballot for a referendum deci-
sion of the people.
Motion for the dissolution was
made by different Oak Park movie
theater owners through Atty Myer J.
Stein.

between the parents. A large group
takes the view that not only
the child, but the mother should be
protected by making the father bear
the burden of her support, as we'll as
that of the child"
If the bill passes it will place the
child born out of wedlock in the
same class legally with the adopted
child. The parents would be respon-
sible for its support, maintenance
and education, according to their
means.
Judge Fisher points out that this is
an improvement over the present
law, under which unmarried fathers
are required to pay $3.50 in payments
spread across nine years to the
mOther-though only about Is per-
cent of unmarried fathers come
through with full payments.

OLD STAR CONE!
"Fatty" Clark, Washburn Vet
eran, Loses Game With Death.
He Was Member of AIl-VictOri-
Gus 1900 Team.

George Fatty Clark one of the
living landmarks of the days when
WashbuAn college had real foot
ball team, is no more. With white
sheeted hospital bed for his gridiron
and his anxious family for the spec
tators, he fought his last battle with
death as his opponent at Sto-mont
hospital Tuesday night and he grim
reaper's attack, directed with rush
that carried him off his feet, was sue
cessful when pleurisy. tricky player
that he' is, slipped thru the medical
guards and crossed the last goal line.
Clark was taken ill Sunday. Tues
day he was losing ground rapidly and
was rushed to the hospital. but the
onrushes of death could not be
stopped despite his wonderful ply
sique and from the time he reached
the hospital it was only matter of
waiting until the. attending physician
announced that the game was over"
Was an Old Star.
Fatty Clark was beloved by all
Washburn people because he was one
of the few old stars of the all-vic lor-
ious days who always retained his in
terest in Ichabod athletics and who
was always ready to attend a rally,
assist in coaching or do anything that
would help the school regain its grid
iron prestige. He came to Washburn
from Edwards county and is remem-
bered best for his work on the great
team Washhurn had in 1900.
Clark played guard on this team,
along with Wade Moore, Dadisman
and many other stars that the old
timers will remember. He was one of
the most powerful men of the team.
That year Washburn defeated K. U.
twice and won from every other team
played. Fatty" played for several
years after this, but took more inter
est in athletics than in his studies and
was in more or less trouble over his
scholastic standing, which prevented
him from giving his services regular
ly to the team.
Became a Fireman.
After quitting Washburn, Clark
went into the Topeka fire department
and has been connected with it al
most eight years. He is survived by
his wife, formerly Miss May Hunter,
of Topeka, and one son, Gordon, IA
years old.
This son was the one pride of
Clark's life. 1t was the fathers am
bition for him to become a great foot
ball player and the two worked in
partnership to prepare the boy for
college and for his fling at collegiate
athletics. With this in view the old
Ichabod star trained the boy from in
fancy and many have heard him
boast that he would give Washburn a
player she would be proud of when
that boy got big enough"

ONE NEW KAN. CLUB
Iowa Leads in Forming New Trap
Shooting Organizations.

Iowa for the second successive year
leads in the formation of gun clubs
birth being given to seven in the
Hawkeye state in 1917. Ten was the
number of new clubs that Iowa con-
tributed in 1916.
Interstate Association records show
that 40 clubs saw the light of day in
1917, but unofficial figures give the
list of new trapshooting clubs as well
up in the hundreds.
The Interstate Association, the ma
tional body of trapshooting, offers to
donate trophy to every newly formed
club, so that the members may have
something to shoot for from the be-
ginning.
1t is quite evident, however, that the
organizers of gun clubs are not aware
of this offer, for in 1916, 1877 clubs
were formed, and only ~ asked the
Interstate Association for trophies.
They all could have had 'em for the
asking.
The appended list shows where the
40 new clubs are from:
