 SAILING OF CAPTAIN SCOTT

Six years ago today Capt. Robert F. Scott, the eminent explorer, set out on his perilous journey with the South Pole as his goal, a journey which ended in one of the greatest tragedies in the history of exploration With the goal in sight, after untold hardships and suffering in the frozen antarctic regions; after seeing one companion after another succumb to Scott discovered the traces of another the terrors of the climate. Captain who had wrested the crown of triumph from him by reaching the coveted goal only short time before the ar rival of the Englishman.

OF
 POLICE GIVEN ]
 JAIL SENTENCE

Carmine Ramone of Lexington ave- nue, pleaded guilty today in the crim- inal common pleas court to a charge of assault, and was fined s150 and a six months jail sentence was sus- pended. He was originally charged with assault with intent to kill, but was allowed to plead guilty to a lesser charge. In the city court he was fined SIS with a long jail term.
 Ramone was with a man named Montanaro the night of March last when they were intercepted by Police man Thomas Walsh at Oak street and Jones avenue. Montanaro resented the policeman, telling them to go home, and struck at Walsh with black jack. Walsh retaliated, with his night stick, but as he was striking Ramone grasp ed his wrist and Montanaro got in a couple of severe blows which felled the policeman.
 Policeman Edward Bolger was near by, and fired at Ramone, who was running away, and also shot. at Mon- tanaro. The policeman's bullet struck Ramone in the stomach, and gut for a belt buckle would undoubtedly have killed him. Ramone was arrested, but Montanaro escaped and has not bten apprehended.
