FRIENDS DEFEND MAN
 IN ALLEGED HOLD-uP

That it would be impossible for Charles Whitaker to turn holdup man, as was charged two days ago, is the contention that friends of the young man raised yesterday, saying the ac- cusatlon Wronged him. Whitaker was arrested after 1t was charged he had tried to hold up a former policeman, who took the youths gun away from him, and sentenced to 20 days in jail for carrying concealed weapons, in police court Monday.
 T have known young Whitaker a long time, and have employed him off and on for three years, and l know he would never try to hold up, and rob anybody, said A. C. Chipman, dairy man, one of Whitaker's defenders He undoubtedly was carrying a small pistol when arrested and he was punished for il, but 1 think the charge of trying 10 hold up a man was un- just"
 Mr. Chipman added that he meant no reflection on the court or the com plainant, but that it seemed impossible considering Whitaker's record and reputation in the past Other friends took the same view.
 The charge of attempted holdup was not pressed in police court Monday y against young Whitaker. who was sen fenced on the charge of carrying con- cealed deadly weapons.

NEGRO CHARGED WITH GAMBLING SET FREE

Regarding George Coleman as the Watchguard of the treasury and not the banker in a prohibited game, jury m Judge Stanford's court yesterday ac- quilted the negro, who was charged with gaming.
 The court room bore the appearance of Phoenix in the days of open gam bling Around the table from the Glover Leaf club. experts were gathered who threw dice in an endeavor 10 demon strate to the jury the crap game that was in progress when the club was raided.
 w. l.. Barnum for the defense called attention to the fact that shooting craps is not an offense under the stat utes. He read that section which spec ifically mentions prohibited games and when craps was declared to be a game similar to "chick d chuck Barum pointed out the differences. He explained to the jury that craps" was played with two dice while three were used in the other game. He also em- phasized the different count employed in the two games. Great efforts were made to show that the negro was not banking the game but merely sat at the table guarding the pile"
 One of the witnesses for the defense was Fred Gardiner, fined $200 by Judge Stanford a week ago when he pleaded guilty to conducting a game.
 The charges against Coleman, like those against Gardiner, followed a raid on the Clover Leaf club when the two and Sonny Smith were taken into GUS tody. smith pleaded guilty and was lined SlOO by the court yesterday.

FASTER ON WHEELS THAN WINGS
Scientific American)


 It was only short time ago that We could earcely believe our eyes when We read that a motor car had made a speed of 120 miles per hour, or a mile in half a minute. Since then, mile records have been successively smashed. With the advent of the airplane we grew quite accustomed to think of travel at speeds of l25 to 150 miles per hour; and so when We learned that Ralph de Palma racing at Ormond Beach, on Lincoln's birthday, had made a mile in 24.04 seconds, we were not half as as tonished as we really should have been.
 This figures out to nearly 150 miles per hour, or 149.9 to be exact. Few airplanes have made as high a speed as this against the air. To be sure. with a following wind to help them, they have exceeded this speed as measured over ground, but 150 miles per hour without the aid of drift is an exceedingly high velocity and it is truly remarkable that We should be able to make as high a speed on wheels as on wings.
 The car with which the record was smashed has twin-six aviation engine power plant. The former record for the mile was 25,4 seconds Following the Lincoln's birthday performance, Ralph de Palma made some other in teresting records. The mile from q standing start was made in 3SS3 sec onds as against a previous record of 40 seconds, and two miles were made in 49.54 seconds as against 5l,2S seconds. The records with flying start for 2 miles, , miles, 10 miles and 20 miles, were 4S.54 seconds; minutes. 45S sec onds minutes, 9,S seconds; and min utes, 54.2 seconds respectively.

that it will be a huge success. The as sociation has formally authorized the ball and committees have been put to work perfecting the arrangements. Ac- cording to the present plans, it will be an affair strictly for the soldiers sail ors and marines of this district and their close friends.
 Incidentally, the ball may become a part of the rousing welcome being planned for the 15Sth infantry, AriZo mas own, when it returns from service, as the regiment is expected to be mustered out and home by that date. Of course the men of the 15Sth will be in on the ball.
 The association has promised to make public further plans for the ball as they are made.
 Tonight the Great War Veterans association will hold it's usual weekly social evening at the club rooms in the War Work building. All members of the association are asked 10 turn out, as a program containing several un- usual features has been arranged and a rich. rare and spicy entertainment is promised.

MILITARY TRAINING
 LEAGUE HEAD ABOUT
 TO RETURN TOE EAST

Mir. H. H. Gross of Chicago, presi- dent of the Universal Military Train ing league, who has been spending rhe winter at Chandler whence he has made many visits to Phoenix, will lcsve for the east on April 14, to re- sume his work as the head of the league. Speaking yesterday of the necessity of military training, MT Gross said:
 Tt takes two years of time and staggering expense to put million of trained men under arms for national defense. If we had been so prepared hat We could have mObilized a million men in two months instead of two years it would have shortened the war. saved hundreds of thousands of lives and tens of billions of dollars
 If the kaiser had had the same re 3pect for us in 1914 as he was forced 10 have four years later, he would not have pushed the war upon us. and probably there would have been no war. The world is full of hate and envy as never before. There never was @ future more uncertain and never
  < compromise league for peace may be formed and it may or it may not work. No one knows.
 With the high American ideals. a willingness to be just and generous. plus Q strong right arm, is our best assurance Of peace. Let this supple ment and help make effective any league for peace that may be formed.
 Tt is essential for our internal se curity, for our peace and progress. that better understanding shall be reached between citizens of the various walks of life and the different nation aiities. These must be brought to- Eher in closer contact, they mus get better acquainted form friend ships, broaden their vision and thu. remove jealousy and prepudice anc unify our people. Universal Military Training will do this.
 Two millions of the finest youne men that ever wore Q uniform are IiN- ing testimony of the most wonderful results in manhood building and every desirable line ever known. The boy. from over there are practically a uni in urging such training as they have received.
 Such training means better health longer life, more strength, higher ef. ficiency, greater self respect, loftie1 ideas, cleaner living and better cit;, Zens.
 With millions of trained men. sub ject to call in case of war, our regula, army may be kept at the minimum ant the country be safe.''

Senator W. P. Pollock of South Carolina in his spirited appeal for the federal amendment in the senate said, "The new South is for woman suffrage" The south ern women repeat it and at the national suffrage convention held recently in St. Louis they mar shalled a surprising array of facts to support the statement. Among the southern women who were prominent at the convention were Miss Gertrude Veil, president of the North Carolina Suffrage Asso- ton, Mrs. John Glover South, of Kentucky and a newly appointed member to the National Woman's Republican committee, and Mrs. W.

HEROES-REAl AND BOGUS
(From the Youths Companion)

(F'rom the Youths Companion)
 ''The newspapers have already begun to report exposures of bogus heroes men who pretend to have had hair breadth escapes from German shells, and who describe battles in which they took no part. Every war produces a crop Of them. Real heroes are al most always modest; so when you hear a man laying stress on what he personally did, just murmur gently to yourself "T was with Grant the stranger said"
