VETS ASK REHEARING
Want to Prove 2.75 Per Cent
Beer Is Not Law Violation.
Root Files Petition critieizing Jurists
Of v. s. Supreme Court for Failure
to Give Reasons for Decision.

Washington, Aug. 7.-William D.
Guthrie and Elihu Root, counsel for
Christian Feigenspan, a brewer of
Newark, N. j., filed with the United
States Supreme court a petition for a
reconsideration of the courts decision
on June sustaining the validity of
the eighteenth amendment and parts
of the volstead enforcement act.
The petition contended that the
eighteenth amendment was designed
to deal exclusively with Intoxicating
liquors. Mr.. Feigenspan, in his origi-
nal suit, sought to prove that beer Of
2.75 per cent alcohol content was not
intoxicating.
The latest petition pointed out the
Importance and magnitude of the con-
stitutional questions involved and de-
clared that so far as the petitioner
has been able to ascertain there Is
no record of any important modern
case involving such vital questions be-
ing disposed of by a court of final
resort without explaining its conclu-
sions."
Inc Dr1ef continues:
mot only is 1t quite unprecedented
IN the history of this court for it thus
to dispose of without expressions of
opinion, matters of great constitution
al Importance. but emphasized by
Justice McKenna in his dissenting
opinion, it is difficult to measure the
force of the conclusions stated by the
court or the deductions properly to
be drawn from them.
Furthermore, the conclusions do
not completely answer questions actu-
ally involved In the litigation and sub
mitted for decision.
"As stated by the learned chief JUS
tice in his concurring opinion, the
court was deciding a case of great
magnitude and passing upon 'an
amendment to the Constitution Of the
United States, dealing with powers and
duties of the national and state gov
ernments, and intimately concerning
the welfare of people"
"It seems therefore," the petition
continued, "that it is not irrelevant or
improper to urge, in support of plea
for rehearing that public opinion
has doubted and challenged the fitness
of summarily disposing Of 2 great
constitutional controversy, involving
vast property interests and long-es-
tablished legitimate industries and in
timately concerning the welfare of
the whole people, without disclosing
the reasons for such disposition"

Senator James e. Watson of In

the Hoosier state are settling down
after the heated primary campaign
and that Indiana is for Harding and
Coolidge. The Indiana senator re
marked that Republicans generally
are now trying to forget their pre-con-
vention preferences and are all in
clined to line up solidly for the Repub-
lican national ticket. He believes the
Hoosier state will roll up a good, big
Republican majority in November.

In his speech on the war resolu-

to the people of my state and to the
nation that am voting for war to-
night, for the maintenance of just
American rights, which is the first es-
sential to the preservation Of the soul

Senator Harding was not moved by
sentimental considerations, not by

that the United States entered the
war ''to make the world safe for de-
mocracy."

GALLAUDET PREPARES
FOR c. u. CONTEST

The Gallaudet varsity went through
fast snappy game with the sec
ond team yesterday afternoon, but
despite the strenuous efforts they
made they could only score four
touchdowns. With the exception of
LaFountain; who is favoring an in
jury, the team had in its lineup
the same men who will face Cath
olic University next Saturday.
The lone vacancy on the team was
filled by Troske who did excellent
work. Coach Hughes devoted most
of his time to instructing the team
in several new plays and to bring
the offense up to the same level
with the defense. The latter has
saved the Kendall Greeners on sew
eral occasions this year, while the
offense has improved only during
the last few weeks.
The shifting of Matthew from half
back to quarter to pivot the team
in this critical game has worked
wonders with the team. The little
back lis a veteran of three years
standing. In the game between
Catholic University and Gallaudet
two years ago he accounted for the
lone touchdown.

Mort Henderson, Masked
Marvel" Loses in w. A.
C.'s First Match.

Charley Cutler, of Chicago, threw
Mort Henderson, known in sporting
circles as the Masked Marvel" two
out of three falls last night in the
feature match of the WASHINGTON
Athletic Clubs first wrestling show
of the fall and winter season.
Cutler got the Iirst fall with a
half Nelson and double harlock after
Henderson had miraculously slipped
out of a full Nelson. The fall took
thirty-four minutes.
Henderson came back in the Sec
ond fan and threw his opponent
with a toe hold and a half Nelson
after seventeen minutes OF as pretty
wrestling as District fans have seen
in the last ten years.
The third and deciding fall was
the surprise of the evening. many
of the spectators not knowing yet
how it came about Both men start
ed cautiously. looking for some un-
protected place to get a vital hold.
The fans were getting set" for a
long match when Cutler, getting a
half Nelson and body lock. dropped
to his knees and threw the Masked
Marvel" over his head and pinned
his shoulders to the mat.
The first bout, preliminary to the
main one! was between Shad Link
of Baltimore, and Frank Zarega. OF
Washington. Zarega won wher
Link who had agreed to throw him
in fifteen minutes, failed.
Both matches were handled vel
by Gus Schoenlein, of Baltimore

Coach Morse's Men Deter,
mined to Win from Team
Which Beat Detroit.

Any team that can defeat Detroit
University by to 6 is a real foot
ball team. This is what Bethany
College did last Saturday against
the Detroiters at Bethany, W. Va
The 1SO-pound Detroiters out
weighed the Bethany lads more than
ten pounds to the man, but were up
against a stiffer combination.
Bethany plays George Washing
ton University tomorrow at the
American League Park at p. m
The visitors average 40 pounds
about the same as the Hatchetites.
Indications point to a first class
contest.
George Washington was not con-
tent with it's win over Nillanova
Saturday, and the team was put
through stiff drills and scrimmages
the last three days. Weakness in
tackling and interfering was the
glaring fault of the Hatchetites
Saturday and to a certain extent
this has been remedied.
1t is expected that Bskew, Hume
and John Loehler will be on the
ends Saturday. All three lads are
six footers or better. Hawley and
Sandys will probably play tackles
although there is a chance that
Cliff Whyte will get in the battle.
The showing of Jones, Barr, Multi
gan and Nilsson makes 1t certain
that these players will be in the
game.
Paul Loehler will be at center
Hughes, McAllister. Tidmer, Kay
Daily, Johnson and Chesney will
, probably get in in the backfeld.
