Peculiar Plays
Two very unusual incidents,
neither seen often in football, mark
ed the Pitt-Syracuse game Satur-
day. The first came in the opening
half when Capt. Harry Robertson
snatched grounded pass from
Davies, ran part way to the goal,
only to have GuliCk snatch 1t up
and cross the line.
The referee, ohm ]. Hallahan,
Boston's sport writer and one of
the game. called the ball back and
it was nut in play again. Hallahan
claimed that when Robertson took
the ball it was dead, being an in.
completed forward pass. There
was great deal of dissatisfaction
in the stands regarding Hallahan's
decision, but the official was right.
The signal had been called for a
pass and Davies had completed the
motion when the ball got away
from him.
Walter Camp, dean OF american
gridiron authorities. who was sit
ting on the side lines, watched the
play closely, and declared the rul-
ing absolutely correct. Grantlano
Rice, New York sport authority,
likewise endorsed Hallahan's judg.

JUDGE IS MERCIFUL
TO WAR TAX THIEF

Martinsburg, w. Va, Sept 2I.-
Asking the court to be merciful 10
the accused. L. S. District Attorney
stuart w. Walker. in Federal court
mere this morning recommended to
Judge Charles 4. Wood that he
merely impose a fine OF s2,5OO and
court costs upon Thomas NJ. Lee,
of Cumberland, entering a plea of
guilty to the charge of defrauding
the government of war taxes paid
him by passengers on the Western
Maryland Railroad on his run as a
conductor.
Lee is the sole support of eight
motherless children and his acts are
said to have been more due to care
lessness than a deliberate intent to
defraud the government. The sum
total involved in the SO counts
specified in an indictment brought
at Elkins some months ago was
about $40. Judge Woods did as re-
Quested.

Remarriage of Divorced Persons
approved b. Clubwoman and Pastor,
Frowned Upon as Wrong by Judge

divorced persons would induce i'm

more cruel or more destructive than
mistaken marriages.
The answer OF DR.. s. Edward
Young. the clergyman who appeared
in the much discussed court action
through an aff1davit of good con-
duct for the divorced man, was
this.
Minister Says "AIIow it,
Next to murder there is no
greater sin than breaking of the
seventh commandment. But I be-
lieve there are certain cases in
which after indubitable proof of pc
culiarly aggravating circumstances
and of thorough reformation cover
ing long period. remarriage should
be permitted"
Judge Benedict explained that he
looked upon many divorce actions
as being brought because one or
both OF those concerned look for
ward to other more interesting al
liances.
But those very alliances. declared
Mrs. Yawger, are desirable IL they
establish happiness for those mated

wall Of dislike to look forward to
