 FAMILIES OF POLICE
tBy United Press) )

Chicago, Jan. 6.-Fifty- bur- nished stars hang in the office of Chief of Police Charles Fitzmorris here Each badge belonged to a Chicago bluecoat slain "in line of duty' in the war on the city's daring and desperate gangsters.
 Fifty prominent Chicagoans, spurred by the frequent killing and wounding of patrolmen by law breakers in the past few months, have moved to the support of the city's first line of defense" With the counsel and advice of the chief, they have pledged fund of S10O,0OO for the relief of dependent widows and children of slain police men.
 The fund will be disbursed by an executive committee consisting of Brig. Gen. Charles G. Dawes, president of the Union Trust company, Mayor Will liam Hale Thompson, and an unnamed guarantor. The amount of each award will be determined by the needs of the family it is to relieve. It will supple ment the life pension of $75 a month granted a patrolman's widow by the city. When the award has been fixed, each contributor to the fund will be notified of the assessment against his pledge of $2,000.

FIND NO DECREASE
 IN STUDENT BODY

Checking over enrolment at the State Normal School after the open- ing of the new term, no decrease in the size of the student body was found according to President B. w. Torrey- son. Students who for various req sons were forced to withdraw after the first term were replaced by an equal number of new students and all departments maintained at their for mer level, MT. Torreyson said. The addition of new students was as grat- flying as unexpected, according to the president.
 One change and an addition to the faculty was made with the opening of the term Miss Hattie Sanders of Memphis, Mo-, succeeded Miss Mar garet Shaw as primary teacher, Miss Shaw having married during the hol- idays. Miss Sanders is a graduate of the Warrensburg Normal and has had postgraduate study at the Univer- sity of Missouri and Columbia Univer- sity Mrs. E. E. Cordrey was added to the faculty as teacher of overflow classes in common school branches. The classes will afford students oppor- tunity to review common school sub jects. Mrs. Cordrey is graduate of Missouri Wesleyan College at War renton.
 Central College is also favored with patronage equal to that of the first term President Doak S. Campbell said that few students withdrew at the end of the first term, and several ap- plications for entrance had beep re- ceived The increase of the student body is at present limited by the smallness of the boarding quarters available at the college.
