leader, Mr.. Thomas, said:
1T is settled. 1t has been a very
difficult job, probably the most difficult
of all our tasks"

and expressed his willingness to 90
on with the case, rather than have the
interests of the commonwealth suffer
through his withdrawal.
Evidence Is Submitted
The prosecution then opened and Mr..
Gordon submitted i'll evidence the orig
inal bill of indictment in the murder
case in point. the shooting of Police
man John Swcrczynski. Anthony Langhi
is charged with the murder.
Mr.. LOgue objected to the preserta
ton of the bills in full. but agreed to
allow Mr.. Gordon to reach such parts
to the Jury as would set forth the char
actcr of the crime of which Zanghi was
charged. Mr.. Gordon then offered in
evidence n certified record of the trial.
Mr.. Logue objected again. He said
the defense admitted that ROrke was
counsel for Zanghi and had acted as
such both at the inquest and the trial
He also admitted that Michael Cuneo
Tony Generoso and Frank Scorza had
appeared at the inquest.
Mr.. Gordon explained that the police
man was shot March 20, 1919, that
Rorke was attorney for Zanghi and
that the three witnesses mentioned had
testified at the inquest, identifying
Zanghi as the murderer. At the trial,
he said, they had testified Ianghi was
not the murderer.
Charge Of Threats
The three witnesses, said Mr.. Cor
don. had admitted at the trial of Zanghi
that two days before they had been or
dered by Felix Cardulo and Joseph
Ritchie to go to Rorke's office. At
Rorke'S office. said Mr.. Gordon, the
three witnesses had been coached in
the testimony they were to give at the
trial and threatened with gouging out
of their eyes if they did not testify as
told. Then and there, said Mr., Go
don. the three witnesses were rehearsed
in their illegal perjured testimony. An
other rehearsal, he said, took place the
day of the trial.
When Judge Rogers heard this story
from the boys in court, explained Mr.
Gordon. he ordered them arrested and
held for perjury, and then caused the
arrest Of Rorkc. Ritchie, Cardulo and
one Frank Piccolo. on charges of sub
ordination of perjury and conspiracy
to obstruct Justice and to secure an
erroneous verdict. Adjournment was
then taken for lunch.

said after :he race IL really WASH so
surprised, dontcherknow, but ] did eX-
pcct the race would be u bit closer.
Before we started | was sure that we
would have a very hard tussle. because
] knew that latham couldn't run n
strong half, but ! was hoping that the
other laddies would make up for him,
and they did. Rudd was wonderful
in his final half and ! think that you
will agree that he showed what you
call some stuff in his 22O-yard sprint
at the finish. -
The crowd was very cager to see
the British in action and it was O big
disappointment when they did not come
forth when the four mile relay was
called. This race was one Of the
greatest ever run in this country.
Most of the customers didn't know that
Shields was in this race, and If they had
known they probably wouldn't have
placed any significance in the fact.
But as it turned out, Penn state won
the race and it was Shields's running
his mile in 1 :2l that turned the trick.
After all, it was not the fact that
the worlds record and a few other new
marks were established that made Fri
Gy's and Saturdays games historic.
The great thing was that these contests
proved concusively that America has
had a great relapse from the military
to the athletic. The people are not
worrying about what dilatory, verbose
Congress is doing.
5000 Turned Away
The war has been over so long that
they don't care whether il is officially
over or not. But they do care and want
to know who are the best athletes in
the country. and the fact that over
5000 persons were turned away from
Franklin Field Saturday proves that
the field and track fans are more inter
ested in sport than in the soporiiic
squabblings Of our lawmakers. As far as
the records show. there has never been
track meet pulled off with as little delay
as the 1920 Penn relays. You can
blame this on George Orton. He had
all the thousands of athletes ready to
go on at the proper time and instead
of running behind schedule. he was
nine minutes ahead ut the finish on Fri
day.
On Saturday several of the events
were late during the early hours. but
the final event. the four mile college
relay championship run. was ready to
go ut exactly , 30 o'clock. As mat
ter of fact, it didn't start until few
minutes later. but this can be blamed
on the Girard College Band. which
suddenly halted in the middle of Oar
danella' and yankcd everybody to at
tention with "rhc Star Spanglcd Ban
ner. This caused some delay. but no
body had the nerve to kick.
After the four mile the show ended
