LaDoyt Pinkerton in Cane Rush

LaDoyt Pinkerton seems to have
taken a prominent part in a cane
rush last Friday in which the Ohio
State sophomores defeated the
freshmen. In reporting same, the
Ohio State Journal stated that the
sophomores resorted to strategy.
rather than force in defeating their
opponents. 1t said:
"Three fake canes were used by
the second year men, two of which
the yearlings hung on their oppon-
ent's goal posts, only later to dis
cover they had been hoaxed. The
real cane was carried by LaDoyt B.
Pinkerton OF McConnelsville, who
only relinquished 1t to Sophomore
Captain Melvin Black of Mt. Vernon
after he virtually had been smoth-
cred under mass of struggling
'frOsh' just before the gun was
fired ending the melee. At the end
of the rush the cane was in Black s
possession on the freshman 4O-yard
line"

ISEEK CHANGE IN RULING
ON O'CALLAGHAN'S RIGHTS

Counsel for Donal O'Callaghan. lord
mayor of Cork, sought today to have
the State Department reconsider its
decision that their client was without
rights as political refugee and sub
ject to deportation because of his ar
rival in America as a stowaway with
out a passport.
Department officers said careful con-
sideration would be given the claims
of O'Callaghan'S counsel, but it was
CARDS the case as one for the Depart
ment of Labor to pass upon. OCalla-
CHAN has been classed as a seaman
by Secretary Wilson and was ordered
to leave the United States last Friday.
He is now registered at a hotel here.
Labor Department officials still
were reticent as to the status OF
OCallaghanS case. but some of them
said secrecy regarding the extension
of time for his departure had been
decided upon so he could get away
without the knowledge of the British
government.
These officers said every effort had
been made last month, when time
was agreed upon for the departure
of the lord mayor to keep the date
secret but that it had leaked out
Inadvertently. When the date became
known, counsel for OCallaghan were
said to have conferred with Secretary
Wilson, asking for a further eXten-
sion of time in order that their client
might escape any possible surveillance
of the British government.
