that was a bigger task than he

Announcement that Mary Pickford

from a consultation with the stars in
Paris. Work on the picture is to start

Rex Ingram and Alice Terry, who

retary of the state Athletic Associa-
ton. has suspended these Hammond
stars from athletics until Feruary IS.
at which time the state athletic board

final decision.
Writings protest Is based on the
fact that these toys played on the
practice games against the Alumni and
First Presbyterian church teams last
December at which time they were
both Ineligible 20 play in regular
games In past years teh eligibility
line has never been closely drawn in
these preliminary contests. and there
is nothing in the year book that de-
fines these games as regular inter
high scho ii contests, but Mr.. Trester
states that such a ruling has been
made by the state board and that prac
ttce games must be considered as regu-
lar contests.
Writings protest and Mr.. Trester's
action, resulting in the loss of these
star players just before some of Ham
monds most important games and
within three weeks of the district
tournament, leaves the Hammond team
in a disorganizAd condition. and Coach
Hess viii have great difficulty in de-
veloping a strong team in the little
time that remains for reorganization.
This is most unfortunate both for the
boys and the school. as there was no
intention on the part of either to vio-
late the rules of eligibility.

DETROIT WOMAN GETS
SPIRIT MESSAGE FROM

out Detroit were holding a "concentra-
ton party" by encouragement. All

that hour upon Bradford and Mrs. Dor
an for tho purpose of assisting in the
transmission of the message
Mrs. Doran swears to the authentic
ity of the communication.
she was not a Spiritualist or Theosop-
hist-She was open-mind5d-
She believes in Spiritualism now.
She invites investigation of her ex-
perience by responsible individuals or
organizations.
Mrs. Doran halfway expected the
message She had summoned three
witnesses-none of them believers in
Spiritualism-to her hame to be ready.
She believed that If it came, it would be
at the hour of nine. She had an in
tuition that Bradford would choose some
such anniversary as week from his
demise to send the message he prom
ised to send
A few minutes before . o'clock. Mrs.
Doran entered the darkened parlor of
her home.
I feel that shall hear from Profess
sor Flynn tonight" she said-Bradford
was known to her as Professor Flynn
As the clock on the mantle-piece
struck nine-the hour when Mrs. Doran
and Spiritualists and Thcosophists all
throughout Detroit had agreed to con
centrate-she put her hands to her
temples and appeared to enter a trance
Her eyes stared vacantly at dark
corner of the room. She seemed obliv-
ious of the presence of the witnesses.
The room was almost dark, The cur
tains were drawn. The only light had
come from a small globe in an electric
floor lamp The radiance of which was
subdued by a dark shade
For several minutes Mrs. Doran stood
silent. Then she said:
7 feel a strange presence. 1 believe
il to be the spirit of Professor Flynn"
Then she seemed to recover from her
apparent trance. She looked around
her and addressed one of the witnesses
"A week ago I scoffed at such a thing.
I wonder if there are many concentrat-
ing their thoughts on this now?"
She placed her hands on her eyes
again and directed turn out the light, :"
this was done, leaving the room in total
darkness.
A moments silence. Then
Y hear his voice; 1t is faint, but It
grows more distinct; it is Professor
Flynn" she said.
