The purpose of the club is TO en-

more enthusiasm thru learning
school songs and yells. Last week
we had a contest for the best new

pound boxes of candy. The prize for
the best new song went TO Steiia

went to Ealine Dunham. Meetings
of the club are held weekly at which
time yells and songs are practfced
for games, and we have no doubt but
that the victory last Friday was par
TALLY won by the support given to
the team by the boosters on the side
lines. The school certainly apprec-

East St Louis, H., May Res
ignations of Chief of Police Null
connery, Chief of City Detectives
Neville and seven other members of
the police department will be de-
manded by the board of fire and
police commissioners, as the re-
suit OF an investigation of the death
at police headquarters of John
Campanella, a prisoner, according
to information obtained by the
Post-Dispatch.
Campanella was arrested follow
ing the killing in his Tooming
house here of Charles Lemon on
March 90 He declared he knew
nothing of the killing and several
days later was found hanging in
his cell. A coroner's jury returned
a verdict of suicide.
A subsequent investigation was
started, however, when other pris-
oners and Mrs. Campanella, who
also was held for investigation, de-
clared they heard Campanella
scream and pray when closeted
with members of the police depart
ment for questioning.
ItTlOTm AuUOpS!s
An autopsy thereupon was per-
formed by DR.. Downey L. Harris,
former city bacteriologist OF st.
Louis, who reported he found no
Indications of strangulation, and
that oedema of the brain was the
probable cause of death.
Oedema, DR.. Harris said, could
have been caused by blows on the
head. He also stated the upper
part of Campanella's body and face
and head were covered with bruises
Police emphasized that at no
time was Campanella maltreated by
them. but that a foreigner, whom
Campanella accused of the Lemon
death, assaulted him when the two
confronted each other at police
headquarters. This man later was
released, and he subsequently de-
MED having assaulted Campanella
The city council then adopted a
resolution that the board of fire and
police commissioners investigate
| Campanella's death.
| A number of witnesses were
heard. and last Friday night a large
| crowd gathered outside where the
hearing was being conducted and
was dispersed by police at the
point of pistols. The nine mem
bers of the police department whose
designations have been asked, ac-
cording to the Post-Dispatch, will
be suspended for 80 days, all will
be reduced to patrolmen and then
their designations will be demand
ed. This is because of technical

ment, before being dismissed, pust
be notified of charges against then
