Was Hair Clippers.

city court was a busy one.
Glen Maxwell was found not
guilty on a charge of carrying con-
cealed weapons and Of drawing a
gun. He was arrested on an affiva-
Wit filed by Otto +. Morgan. On
giving his verdict Judge Feig stated
he found the defendant not guilty
reluctantly, but that the state had
not clearly proven that Maxwell
had a gun, and therefore, accord
ing TO the Indiana court laws, he
would be obliged to give him the
benefit Of the doubt According 20
the evidence introduced, Mrs. Nor
gan left her home on the night Of
Jan. 3, saying she was going TO take
a walk. Mr.. Morgan later followed
her and testified that his wife met
Maxwell. He followed them for
several blocks overtaking them on
n. Cedar st. He approached them
and a quarrel ensued between Nor
gan and Maxwell. The former
claimed Maxwell pulled a gun on
him and threatened 10 kill him.
Witnesses for the defense claimed
that Maxwell did not draw a gun
but used a pair Of hair clippers in
stead
Judson Hall was found guilty of
a charge Of vagrancy, and was fined
$50 and costs by Judge Feig. He
was unable 10 pay and was sent TO
the state penal farm to serve so
days Hall has been in court on
previous occasions He is 10 years

HIGH SCHOOL To
PLAY SOUTH BEND
Stage is Set for the Biggest
Home Game of the
Season.

Once again the time has come
for the bi-annuaI clash between the
~gishawaka and South Bend High
schools on the basketball floor. and
these age-old rivals will lock horns
ar the old NJ L. church gym to-
night at 1880.
The Maroon and White quintet
VIII present its strongest lineup in
the fray and every man is in the
best Of condition for the game. Dur
ing the past week the men have
been passing the ball and caging
and local fans are inclined TO lool;
upon the result OF the contest from
an optimistic standpoint
Coach Mueller has made a shift
in the locals lineup which has prov
ed more than satisfactory. Wiess
has been shifted from forward q
guard and Brady has been changed
from the guard position 20 the cen
ter berth. German will occupy q
forward berth as running mate Il
Graves. Garman is an old man al
the game but appears TO have just
recently hit his stride and will NJ
doubt furnish plenty Of thrills in
tOnight's fracas.
The Tan and Blue aggregation is
one Of the strongest that has rep
resented the school for several years
and with the sting OF October's foot
ball game still smarting, they vii
no doubt prove TO be worthy Op.
ponents for the home team.
Several hundred tickets have beer
sent 10 the neighbOring school and
indications are that a record crow
