TRIAL TO LAST MONTH
BY Herald Leased Wire.

Grand Rapids, Mich, Feb. 2a-The
government is expected this week to
complete presentation OF its evidence
in the election conspiracy trial of
United States Senator Truman H.
Newberry and IL political aids.
1t is probable that 800 prosecution
witnesses will have taken the stand
before the defense will have oppor-
tunity to present its side in the case.
Up to the present 30 witnesses have
testified and the government has in
troduced 10s series of exhibits. In all,
probably 1000 papers have been read
lettered for later perusal by the Jury.
These exhibits include letters. tele-
grams, financial records and newspa
pers.
Newberry storm Center.
Practically all OF the '12S defend
ants have received mention in the
testimony thus far presented. The
general supposition is that Frank
c. Daley, special assistant attorney
will confine the last days Of his side
to concentrating his evidence fire
on Senator Newberry and dozen
of his closest campaign associates.
The casual observer of the case has
decided to his own satisfaction that
the conviction of any of the defend
ants depends absolutely on the
primary conviction of the, Michigan
Senator.
Upon this theory is based the
assumption that Daley has until
now withheld his most important
evidence upon the Senator's con-
nection with the campaign money
spending. Even the defense looks
forward to a spectacular finish to
the governments case.
Ford Conspicuous.
The attorneys for those on trial
have maintained some difidence in
the matter of forecasting the scheme
of their defense. Some of the de-
PENDANTS, however, have suggested
a certain significance in the fact
that the Newberry case has been dis
cussed as a partisan issue upon the
floor in the United States Senate.
There has been some talk on the
defense side of Democratic spite"
The name of Henry Ford recurs con-
stantly when defendants group in
hotels to "analyze" the situation.
A full month will be occupied in
completing the governments case and

.EARLHAM PREPARING
FOR GRIDIRON BATTLE
WITH MICHIGAN TEAM

Earlham's football team went to
work Monday evening to prepare for
the hardest game on its schedule, the
clash with the Michigan State Normal
college from Kalamazoo, Mich, on
Reid field next Saturday afternoon.
Coach Move had his entire squad on
the field Monday evning with the ex'
ception of AL Carter who is staying
out of scrimmage for fear of injuring
his hand which was broken in the
Rose Poly game.
If work and plenty of it will put a
team in shape for acontest the Quak-
ers are going to put in enough this
week to put the Kalamazoo game on
ice. Every minute of work this week
will be devoted to plays that will be
used in the game next Saturday
The Quaker team will enter the
game with "A determination to annex
another victory to their string. The
past few years have not seen team
with the fighting qualities of the Earl
ham eleven this year, and even though
the worst kind of luck has followed
them throughout the season they ex-
pect to make a record that will go
down in the annals of the college.
Kalamazoo Strong.
Kalamazoo is known to have
strong team although defeated by an
overwhelming score by Notre Dame in
an early game of the season, this can
not be held against any team as critics
recognize that Notre Dame has what
is probably the best team in the coun-
try.
The Wolverines are a heavy aggres-
sive bunch coached by a former Wa
bash college star. They are making
their second invasion of Indiana in the
Earlbam game and expect to take a
win back with them. Tickets for Sat
urday's game will be 81 occasioned by
the increased cost of getting a hlsh
class eleven here to oppose the Quak-
ers. Tickets will be on sale at the
gate.
