SHANK REFUSES
SUNDAY THEATER
CLOSING REQUEST
Marion County w. c. T. U.
Offers Petition for Shutting
Houses on Sundays.

Mayor Shank today refused to heed
a request of Mrs. w. w. Reedy and
Mrs. Alice Free, representing the
Marion County w. c. T. u, that
theaters he closed on Sunday.
The women said the W. C. T. u.
has obtained 1900 signatures to a
petition favoring Sunday closing.
The mayor argued with the repre-
sentatives for half an hour and then
reported;
- Itold the meven If they did have
a petition with Il, 900 names on it
the theaters would put petitions out
in their lobbies next Sunday and get
100, 900 names. l told them 1 thought
it was better to have people in NICE
well-lighted theaters on Sunday than
out on the banks of Eagle Creek shoot
ing craps or lined up along country
roads in automobiles with the lights
out.
"They told me that some of the
pictures were not moral; that they
saw a man with his arms around a
girl and when the hero kissed the
heroine no tried to kiss the young
woman with him.
''I told them no great moral was
portrayed in a story unless some ugly
facts were shown along with the
good.
"They said they would get out an
injunction. 1 told them that was the
thing to do. If they get an injunc-
ton we1l certainly have to abide
by it."

Special Master Presides in Fed
eraI Court as Increase
Fight Begins.

Evidence Of earnings OF the Citizens
Gas Company to Sept. ! was intro
duced by attorneys for the company
at a hearing before William p. Kappes,
special master, in the Federal Court
library today.
The hearing was held to give the
company opportunity to justify its de-
mand for a gas rate of S1.20. which
was granted in a temporary injunc-
ton by three Federal judges last
spring.
The history OF the property also
was gone into at length. Valuation Of
the property will not be completed for
several days. II. II. Hornbrook, coun-
sci for the company, announced. An
other hearing will be held as soon rs
this work is done.
The case reached Federal Court
when the Citizens Gas Company asked
an injunction against the Indiana
public service commission to prevent
that body from interfering with the es-
tablishment of rates in excess of the
old 90-cent rate. At the hearing on
the temporary injunction rate Of
s1.20 was granted pending final hear
ing after the report of the special
master.

FINDS INSTANCES

Public Service Commission
Learns of Excessive Prices
for Coal Being Charged.

Instances of coal pro1teerinS
throughout the State are coming to
light in letters addressed to the
Public Service Commission acting as
the State fuel emergency committee
and investigation Of the more serious
cases will be made by the commission,
it was announced today.
1t has been brought to the attention
of one member of the commission that
81 per ton for Indiana coal was being
asked in one northern Indiana city.
This price, the committeeman said,
was exorbitant, as coal operators,
when meeting with the committee late
last month. agreed $3.50 per ton mine
price was a reasonable price for the
best grade of Indiana coal.
Brokers are believed responsible for
a considerable measure of the prof.
teering, officials say, and investigation
of this phase of marketing will be
brought about.
1t is reported officially that as much
as $5.25 per ton is asked by some In
diana mine operators.

BASE BALL POOLS
THRIVE ON CITIES
IN MINOR LEAGUE
American Association Teams
Used as Basis of Auction
Lotteries.
KANSAS CITY WcTIMIzED
Toledo, Minneapolis, St. Paul
and Louisville Also
Suffer.

By NEA SeTrice
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 19.-Basebal
pools flourish in most American As
sociation cities. Sales in the eight
cities average between $4,000 and
$4,000 4 week.
Mystery covers most operations, but
pool tickets are sold openly in some
Stities-notably Kansas City, which is
regarded as minor league gambling
headquarters in the Middle West.
Here baseball pools and hOrse-race
handbool,s are operated in at least
three cigar stores.
In one place the salesman mounts
stand like an auctioneer and calls out
to the crowd:
Here's your chance to get $50 for
dime"'
Occasionally a policeman in uniform
walks in. and the selling stops until he
goes out again.
5000 Play Pools
Five thousand persons in Kansas
City buy chances weekly. In Toledo
:. 1000 regular players spend a similar
amount.
Selling is open in Toledo. where the
ticket buyers spend $500 a day TO
win 1,2O0.
More than half the tickets in Kan
sas City are sold by agents who have
regular routes through office build
fngs and factories. The remainder are
sold in cigar stores and billiard rooms
as in most cities.
Pools are based on scores of games
in the two major leagues and in the
American Association. The principal
daily pools are made up with tickets
containing the names OF three clubs
out~of the twenty-four in the three
leagues.
These tickets are sold for ten cents
each. the person holding the names
OF the three clubs getting the largest
number of runs that day winning $50.
The ticket drawing the smallest num-
ber Of runs wins $50. Prize money IS
Aiivided in case Of tie.
Reap Big Profits
Weekly pools are operated on the
same basis as daily pools. These
tickets cost twenty-five cents, with q
grand prize OF $500 and four lesser
prizes.
Profits Of $500 a day are made IN
cities where the business reaches
$4,000 a week, according to estimates.
Many pools are small. and locally op-

through a national pool, headquarters
Of which are believed to be in New
York.
St. Paul "exterminated" baseball
pools in 1920. but they returned this
year and estimates place sales at

selling exists in two places. but bet

Eng from $4,000 to $4,000 a month.
Raids have been made on handbooks,
but not on baseball pools.
Several thousand dollars change
hands weekly in Milwaukee, though
pools are considered small, following
last years raids.
Columbus is the one city reporting
very little activity in baseball pools.
Following the scandal in 1913. there
was a cleanup, and ticket selling is
restricted and secret.
Condemned by Officials.
Mayors, police chiefs, prominent
citizens and baseball officials in all
cities condemn baseball pools.
Chief Frank Anderson of Kansas
City SAYS it is hard to get evidence.
Chief Jennings of Toledo said he
had never heard any complaints.
Mayor a. E. Nelson of st. Paul says:
NO information relative to operation
Of baseball pools has come to my at
tention."
Women buy tickets in some cities,
survey shows. Boys are customers,
too. but not openly.
Use Of the mails has started inquiry
by Federal officials. notably in Min
