Racine Women Declare That
They Were With Pace and
Powers At Time of Kim
ball Hold Up.
SPENT Time AT ROAD HOUSE
Police Believe Regardless Of Identified
tions That Men Were Not In Kenosha
When Crime Was Committed May
Be Held On Gambling Charge.

Leo Pace and Homer Powers, arrested
by the police as suspects in connection
with the daring holdup of the saloon
of T.. S. KimbaIl on last Friday night,
were still being held by the police to-
day but it was admitted that they
might not be charged with the crime on
account Of an alibi that they have es-
tablished Regardless Of the fact that
five men who were held up were posi-
tive of their Identification Of Pace as
the man who held the business end of
the revolver and frisked their clothes,
the police are not inclined to believe
that the two men are the men wanted.
Mrs. Powers, wife Of one of the men,
was fretting at the county Jail today
and demanding to know why she was
held by the officials.
Racine Girsl Establish Alibi,
Two Racine girls whose names have
not been made public BY the police, are
declared to have established the abb
of the two men They told Chief
that they were with Powers and Pace
at the time Of the holdup. They as
serted that the four Of them made up
a party at Road House on the Geneva
Road west of Kenosha, and their story
is backed up by the story Of one Of the
members of the police department who
happened to see the quartette when
they returned from the road house some
time after midnight Friday night. The
two men in company with Detective
Rock started out to the Road House
this morning in an automobile but the
snow drifts were so heavy that the
automobile was ditched and the trip
was abandoned until tomorrow
Explain Lack Of Occupation.
One of the men explained their lack
Of occupation since they have been in
Kenosha by declaring that he had spent
considerable time in instructing certain
people of Kenosha in the gentle art OF
shooting craps. He admitted that
he had found some apt pupils among
the Kenosha men and that it had not
been very difficult to get game going
at a number of places in the city. The
police suggested that the one man and
possibly both Of them, might be ar
raigned for some violation Of the laws
against gambling. Several sets of dice
were taken from the men. Loaded Y
was the comment Of the police officers as
they tossed the dice over the desk.
1t is possible that some final DISPOSE
ton Of the cases of the three people
will be made in court tomorrow Mean
time the Chicago detectives are look
ing into their records.

SEE LONG WAIT
FOR new SCHOOL
Unsatisfactory Progress Of
Washington School a Dis
appointment To School
Officials.
NOT READY TILL SEPTEMBER
Board Of Education Refuses TO Ans
wer Plea of Manual Training Teach
ers For Wages Which Will Make
Support Of Families Possible,

Unsatisfactory progress with the
Washington School was reported to the
board Of education at its regular meet
ing on Tuesday evening and the hope
that has been held out that the build.
ing might be ready for the use of the
children by the first Of March is blast
ed. 1t is now declared that the chill
dren will be fortunate il the building
is ready by the opening of the new

the completion of the building is to
bring complete reorganization Of the
schools of the city.
Junior High for North Side.
The Washington School, it is an
nounced, is to be the junior high school
for the north side Of the city and the
children from that side Of the city now
attending the Frank ,lnniar High will
be transferred and open the way for
the transfer of many of the children
from the Lincoln School district to the
Frank School, relieving congestion in
the Lincoln district. It was hoped
that this plan might be carried out the
first Of March but with the report that
the new building is not yet under roof
and will not be for some time, the
school leaders know that their plans
must be changed.
It is just possible that with view
of conserving coal the fires which have
been maintained in the uncovered
building will be ordered banked until
the weather gets warmer and the dan
ger of coal famine is over.
Refuse to Increase Wages.
Manual training teachers in the
schools joined in petition to the
board asking for increased salaries,
declaring that it was impossible for
them to support their families on the
wages now being paid them. The mat
ter was considered at some length by
the members of the board but the pc

what further steps will be taken by the
manual training teachers. It has been
said that some of them may resign
their work with the schools and accept
factory positions in order to earn
wages enough for the proper support
of their families.
Changes in Teachers.
A number of changes in teachers
were made at the meeting of the board
Miss Alete Schreiner, who has been an
assistant in the department Of physi-
cal culture, was named as head Of the
department for the remainder of the
school year. Miss Myrtle Westlake
was named as teacher in the Orchard
Knoll School Miss Ceeelie McNicho-
las as a teacher in the Balm, and Miss
Mildred Van VIE as an assistant in
the kindergarten at the Weiskopf
schools. The resignation Of Miss Ruth
Pelkey of the Durkee School force was
accepted and Mrs. Rose Wesley Of Ft.
Wayne, Ind, former teacher in the
schools here, was elected to fill this
vacancy.
No action was takensby the board in
