RECALLERS SET
DATE FOR FILING

Opening OF headquarters by the re-
call committee and the filing of the
petitions not later than Tuesday are
the only developments announced on
Wednesday by committee members.
Headquarters will be opened in the
vicinity of Madison avenue and Sec
ond street, probably Thursday. The
petitions will be available for three
days during which time any Voters
desiring to do so may sign them.
The petitions will then be filed with
the city clerk.
Members of the committee hope to
be in position to file them on Satur-
day, but state that Tuesday is posi-
lively the last day, and that there
will be no delay beyond that time.
A number OF men are known to
have a desire to run for office under
the banner of the reCallers, in the
event an election is called, and they
are wearing out much shoe leather
promoting their own candidacy. The
ideal arrangement, according to
friends of the movement, would be
composed Of two business men, two
representatives of labor and a pro-
fesslonal politician as mayor.
However, il Is Indicated that no at
tempt will be made by the commit
tee to pick a ticket but that the
matter will be left to the wishes of
the voters at a mass meeting to be
called when the city commission
calls an election.

Boy Hit By Auto
Has slim, Chance

Lying unconscious at Gartly-Ram
say hospital, Harold Moore, five
year-old lad struck by an auto Tues
day Is near death, according to at
taches. Little hope could be held out
for recovery. The Moore child was
struck Tuesday afternoon by n car
driven by Edgar A. Lehr, lumbeTmGn,
1929 Snowden avenue. He Is at lib
erty on bond charged with reckless
driving.
The lad was taken TO the hospital
In the lumberman's car shortly after
the accident which occurred at jack
SON avenue and Decatur street. At
tendants say he never shas regained
consciousness. Injuries were sustained
about the head and body. DIR. Ed
ward ID. Mitchell declares a fracture
of the skull was very evident al
though X-ray examination Tuesday
night failed to disclose such.
The child lis the son of Alvin n.
Moore, 789 Ayres street, an employe
OF the Memphis Bread company. With
his father Harold was walking along
Jackson avenue and at the intersec-
tion of Decatur started across the
street ahead OF Moore. Lehr was
proceeding east on jackson. Emer-
gency Officers Henderson and Mark
ham reported that Moore said the
machine was not going fast, between
15 and 20 miles an hour, when the
accident took place.
Lehr, who Is secretary of the Green
River Lumber company is to face
city court. Hearing probably will be
continued pending change in the
childs condition.
Tuesdays accident occurred with
in a few blocks of Lane avenue and
Decatur where three weeks ago
Louise Miller, the same age as Har-
old Moore, was run down and fatally
injured by a service car.
