In Special Court Session

Under application of Prosecutor Sum

the recognizance. of Frank Scott and
Peter Jordan of $500 and costs. was
forfeited. 1t was stated that Scott had
been held as a witness to appear be-
fore the Grand Jury during one of the
sessions two years ago but failed to
answer to his name. Jordan was a
bondsman for Scott and therefore will
have the bail to pay.
Jordan was before the Court and
said that Scott and another fellow
made a deal for his grocery business
in Penns Grove, but the former de-
clared that before papers could be leg
ally signed he would nave to have
some one go on his bond to appear in
the case above mentioned. Thinking
thai everything was all O. X. Jordan
signed the bail bond. Scott paid over
to Jordan $4,000 and gave a check for
$1,000 to seal the bargain for the store
but the check was worthless. In the
meantime some food and groceries had
been removed from the store. Scott
then disappeared and mas never been
seen since. Mr.. Jordan has used every
effort to apprehend him but without
avail.
In view Of the facts, Judge Wadding-

BOWLING NEWS
Ten Pins

1t begins to look as though our pre-
diction that Colors would win out in
both Ten Pins and Duck Pins was all
wrong. We are unable to account for
the sudden reversal of form of the Ten
Pin Team, but want to say right here
that the next time it comes u turn
to pick a winner We intend to figure
it all out on paper hen o the
old dope over the ransom and go out
and bet on the second choice. In or
der to win the Duck Pin race, Colors
must first win all three games of their
last match with Chemical. This should
be quite a task, but in the event of
their losing even M game they will
be tied for first place with Operative
Engineering and Mechanical, or if they
lose w games they will have to take
second place. In the event of a tie

Operating VS. Mechanical.
Jackson Laboratory VS. Engineering.
The Dye Works Basketball League
begins to look like the real thing, eX-
cept the novelty of seeing Operating in
the lead. Operating has gone out in
full force this time to wipe out the
memories of their attempt at base
ball and it looks as though they We're
going to. succeed. In Tuesdays game
with Engineering the Operating team
looked good enough to tackle anything,
in fact much stronger than in their
first game in the league. The addition
of PLAN and Patterson proved to be a
big boost in the strength of the team.
While Engineering was defeated they
were not ~disgraced by any means.
ogden tried hard to pull his team to-
gether time and time again, but the
lightning attack of the Operators was
not to be stopped. AS in baseball. the
Engineering department is playing
with a team composed of first-class
players who may be expected to give
a good account of themselves before
the season is over. Johnny Ogden de-
serves great credit for the fighe he put
up to stave off defeat. Johnny was
not only beaten as far as the game
was concerned, but was battered up
considerably physically. was due,
| no doubt, to Johnny's reputation in the
game and the fact that the opposition
did everything possible to stop him.
| The second half of this game ave the
audience an opportunity to witness one
of those situations where a good little
man meets with a good big man. Such
was the case when Ogden and Patter-
son lined up. Patterson was fresh in
the game whereas Ogden had played
through a terrible grilling in the first
half, but there was no doubt left in
the minds of the ans as to the equal
ity of the players.
Manager B~ridenbach, Eddie Hoffman
and PLAN of the Operators and Dun
bar and Cornog of the Engineers. all
distinguished themselves. No use say
ing anything about Jack Arthur, he

Mechanical was again forced to
swallow the bitter pill of defeat at the
hands of the fast Jackson Laboratory
team. Mckenzie, Yeats and DIEM
played exceptionally well for the Lab
ora+ory men. particularly Yeats. VINO
made several difficult shots. If Ham
