Winchester, Ky, Aug. 20-The
examining trial OF Reese Fox;
accused OF having been an ac-
oomplice IF Scobee Hardman. al
legged murderer OF Leon Rena-
ker, wealthy poultry dealer, will
resume this morning when the
defense will introduce Carl Ma
han, declared to be an important
witness, who has been at Camp
Knox in training with the Clark
county hospital company No. 137.
When county court convened
at 10 o'clock Friday morning itI
was requested that the arrival
Of Mahan be awaited. but when
the session ojened at l o'clock
he had not arrived.
When the examining hearing
began the courtroom Was crowd !
ed to capacity with relatives Of !
the accused man, members Of /
the family of the murdered tur-
key king and connections of
Hardman prominent among the
attendants.
The greater part Of the testi-i
mony introduced followed the
same lines as those OF the exam
lining trial Of Hardman, although
the defense is expected to intro
duce a new angle today when it
introduces testimony to prove
that Hale NJ. Kreis. of Lexing-
ton, 4 travelling salesman, and
Harvey Ringo, OF Richmond,
were occupants of Dodge
roadster which crossed Boones-
boro ferry the night the murder
was committed and that their
machine was probably mistaken
by the ferryman near the bath
ing beach for that in which Fox
and Hardman were alleged to-
have crossed the ferry in after
midnight, near the time of the
murder.
Fifty witnesses were sworn in
for the defense and q for the
Commonwealth. There were a
number of witnesses summoned
to corroborate the testimony Of
Hardin Smith, ferryman, who
stated that he saw Hardman and
Fox cross the river the night
Renaker was supposed to have
been murdered. !
When Fox entered the court
room he was calm and did not
appear to be nervous. He was
still h:nping and wearing a ten

sprained his ankle in a recent
ball game. County Attorney H.

were. seated at the prosecution
table. The defendant, his moth
er and his attorneys, James G.
Denny, of Lexington, G. F.
Wycoff and Rodney Haggard,
occupied the table assigned to
the defense.
The commonwealth called II
witnesses during the afternoon
and only attempted to prove that
Scobee Hardman had a motive,
not bringing out much evidence
against Fox.
Mr.. Kemper, when Mr.. Denny
objected to his line of examina-
ton when he was cross examin-
ing Mrs. Renaker, said that the
prosecution would first show
that Hardman had motive and
that second it would show that
Hardman and Fox had conspired.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 16.-At-
tendance records for Southern football
games are expected to fall here next
Saturday when Centres Prayin' Col
onels tackle Auburn in a game which
the two teams contend will determine
DiXie's football championship.
With excitement over the contest
at fever heat, hopes of Auburn sup
porters have been dampened. during
the last two days by injuries Of varl-
Gus members of the Auburn eleven.
Grisham and Wynne, now out of the
game, may not be able to enter the
Centre game. Fox and Gibson, how
ever, who have been laid up for sew
eral days, got into yesterdays light
gymnasium workout, rain preventing
outdoor practice.
Contrasting with the gloomy reports
fromAuburn stories from Danvile
declare the Colonels are in tip top
form. Stung by criticisms Of their
line, both team and coach have tackled
the problem of strengthening the Ger
tire forward system. A scrub team,
using Auburn plays, has given the reg
ulars stiff workouts daily.

Eighteenth Amendment.
INV unIted Press. ,

Washington, Nov. lG--A careful
check up of the new congress has as
sured dry leaders that they still hold
two-thirds majority more than
enough to block any attempt to tam
per with the national prohibition act.
This will prevent any modification
| of the present prohibition act until
1924 at least, in the contention of
Wayne B. Wheeler, legislative chief
of the anti-saloon league who reveal
ed today in an interview with the
United Press that:
p 1-Congressional drys now are
massing their forces to withstand the
wet uprising which is expected as a
result of the wet sentiment in the re-
cent elections.
2-An effort will be made to take
prohibition enforcement out OF poll
tics" by passage of the bill placing
all federal agents under civil service.
3-No new teeth" measures are
planned for introduction in congress
-drys being supremacy content with
the present law.
Wheeler declared the "wet era"
lItI dlucu ny luC GiCNlOilS was ldi ESiS

ed, he said, that many congressman

clusion that he was wet" he added.
But wait until the new congress
comes into power and then you will
find out who is wet and who is dry.

the vets to modify the Volstead law
but | am confident that we hold the
majority which will prevent any wet

The only measure designed to per-
feet prohibition enforcement will
soon be passed by the senate, proba-
bly, at the special session, Wheeler
said. This is the bill which all pro-
, hibition agents to undergo civil ser
vice examinations.
Prohibition agents have in many
cases been political appointees of poll
ticians," Wheeler declared. 81 think
it would benefit the present system by
keeping all agents out of politics.
Outside of this we intend to dc
nothing in the present or new con-
gress, but overthrow all onslaughtS
