PINK SHEETS RILE
SAGE AT SORBONNE
French Professor Protests Against
Over-Interest in "Ydlgar En-
counter of Fisticuffs."
tBy Associated Press Leased wirel

Paris-Emotion over the Carpenter
Dempsey match has penetrated Sor-
bone circles somewhat to the .dismay
of the faculty. M .Seignobos profess
sor of French history in the univer-
sity of Paris has been observing that
his students were coming into the
lecture room with pink newspapers
which upon examination by the curl
Gus professor, turned out to be sport
ing dailies with long articles relative
to the prospects of can American
named Dempsey and a Frenchman
named Carpenter.
Professor Seignobos took occasion to
refer to this opening one of his lect-
ures, the subject for the day happen
ing to be Henry ".
He is reported as having said in
substance:
young gentlemen, I have not failed
to see that your attention has been
somewhat distracted from the study Of
the history Of your race by what seems
to me the undue importance being Civ
en- a trivial. encounter at fsticuffs be-
tween two young men which is about
to take place on the other side of the
sea. have seen illusions in the pub
lie prints to the glory that would &C
crue to the French victory by the vic
tory of Carpenter.
81 cannot refrain from mentioning
that the greatest achievement Of our
race have not been through the display
of physical, but mental power. I have
no doubt that Jack Johnson could beat
Napoleon in personal combat, or that
Bergson would be found unequal in a
ring enclosing him and Mr.. Dempsey.
II beg Of you young gentlemen, to
maintain a sense of proportion in your
Intellectual interests and to abandon
perusal, at least during lecture hours
of these ephemeral publications"

IEAVY BONDS FOR KENOSHANS
MQuiring Reporter
TODAY'S QUESTION:

What is your opinion of the police
commissions choice for chief of po-
lice?
ANSWERS:
A Member of the Police and Fire
Commission-We have used our best
judgment in appointing Logan as act
ing chief. Understand ne is only on
trial, and if he proves to US that he is
the best man for the position he will
be appointed to that office. We think
he is all right, and it is now up to him
to make good. You know if you get
job in factory and you prove inefici-
ent, out you go.
Fred Sharpe, 657 Quinton st.-I'm
glad to see "Tad" Logan on that job.
am sure that Kenosha now has a
good, honest, law-loving man for that
office. Now all that remains to be done
is to have him prove to US that the
commission made no mistake.
Miss L. K, Garden st.-I'm satisfied
with their choice, if that will help any.
Now he ought to go out and arrest a
handful of burglars or murderers as
his first days work, and he will make
decided impression right from the
start. That's what Chicago's chief of
police did when he was first appointed.
But I suppose theret aren't many of
those kinds of crooks running around
so that you can catch them as easy as
all that.
NJ Everett, 7O5 Adams ST., conductor
-"Tad" Logan is the man for the job
alright or the commission would not
have chosen him. think that his past
record on the force and his personal
qualities make him an ideal man for
the position of police chief, and l don't
think there is anybody in Kenosha or
anywhere for that matter, who can in
fuence him from performing his right
duty.
M. NJ, Main st., shoe clerk-If the
fact that he is a bachelor will help
him any, think everyone ought to
know about it. I knew Tad" in the
army and l know that no one will ever
have cause to regret the choice of the
commission in naming him as police
chief.

TELLS LOGAN
"Y0U BE BOSS
Chief in Conference is AS
sured Full Co-opera-
ton Of Officials.
A PITCHERS CONTRACT
New Acting Chief Has Unsign-
ed Detroit Contract with
Offer of $500 Month.

Remember, Thad, you afe the boss,
and you are expected to be the boss,
and you are accountable to the people
of Kenosha for the handling of the
police department after you go to work
Friday morning. We are wishing you
every success and you take the office
with the assurance that you are going
to run it and nobody else"
This was the orders given by Mayor
John G. Joachim to the new acting
chief of police, Thad Logan, following
a conference between the mayor and
the new head of the police departm emit
this morning. 1t was taken to mean
that there would not be even a sugges-
ton of policies to be followed by the
new chief on the part of the mayor or
the other city officials. The conference
at the Office of the mayor was not
formal. 1t was more like friendly
talk than anything else.
Mayor Says Enforce the Law.
"You have your orders from the COM
mission" declared the mayor, land l
want to second everything that has
been told by you to the commission.
You are told to enforce the law and
that is what is expected of you You
are told to be boss of the department
and your success or failure depends
upon your ability to be boss"
The new acting chief told the mayor
that he apnreeiated his. suggestion and
that he was prepared to carry it out.
There were flowers on the table in
the back room of the police Office this
morning and they were the gift of
friends to the newly appointed acting
chief. Logan was at his regular work
Tuesday night and he quits the rcgu-
lar beats only when he goes to work
IN the back office on Friday morning.
Has Contract With Detroit.
Acting Chief Logan will carry into
his new Office an unsigned contract as
baseball pitcher. He was not forced
to return to the Kenosha police force
to earn living. In fact, he has con-
tract in his pocket which offers him a
lot more as baseball pitcher than he
is to receive as a chief of police here
The contract is one with the American
League of baseball and it bears the sig
nature of the manager of the Detroit
team. 1t is not signed by Logan and
he declared this morning that it never
would be. The contract provided that
Logan should join the Dtroit team as
pitcher at salary of $500 a month
with provisions for an increase in sal
airy if his pitching wing proved valu-
able to- the Detroit team.
Ty Cobb Secuted Him.
Tyrus Cobb, who far years was one
of the most notable figures in profess
sional baseball, was the scout who had
picked Logan for the Detroit contract
Cobb was overseas as a representative
of one of the big organizations and saw
Logan in action as a pitcher. He sent
word to the manager of the Detroit
team and the contract offering Logan
berth followed, him half round the
world before it reached him.
"No, l haven't declined nor have
accepted" said Logan this morning,
81 am just keeping the contract to show
that l did have a real chance to be a
baseball player"
