COMPLETE PLANS
FOR IVANDAL TRIP
GREAT SEND OFF PLANNED BY
UDENTS-TEAM LEAVES
SUNDAY

Arrangements were completed
Thursday for the transportation of
the University of Idaho basketball
team to Indianapolis, Ind, for the nat
ional intercollegiate basketball tour
nament March 9, 10 and IL by E. A.
Klippel, Jr., of Spokane, travelling
passenger agent of the Union Pacific
system. The Idaho team will go to
Indianapolis on the Northern Pacific
and will return on the Union Pacific
system via Pocatello and Boise.
Coach David Mcmillan announced
Thursday that the Idaho men will
leave here Sunday afternoon on the
2:40 Northern Pacific train. Plans are
now being made by Idaho students,
under the leadership of Yell King Ted
Turner, for the biggest send-off ever
accorded an Idaho basketball team.
The University Pep band and possibly
the University of Idaho cadet band of
40 pieces will be out at the train and
every university undergraduate will
be there to see the Idaho Vandals off
on their invasion of eastern territory
with the championship of the United
States in view.
Idaho After Championship
While Idaho students have no in
formation on the relative strength of
the teams that will be entered at the
national tournament they are behind
their team to the fullest extent. Idaho
is believed to have as good chance
rs any other team in the United States.
1t is not believed that basketball
teams of the eastern schools play any
faster basketball than the colleges OF
the west, and Idaho's chances are con-
sidered just as good as the chances of
any other team.
Idaho will be handicapped by the
long journey to Indianapolis, arriving
there on the afternoon of March 8,
Just a day before the start of the
tournament play.

suit of its action. Backed by the ap
proval of his cabinet which held a
five hour session on the matter Mon

day while resisting arrest. The shoot,
ing followed raid on an alleged Illicit
still at Gray's ranch, four miles east
of Heber. The deputy was released
from custody.
Coroner F.. w. Peterson testified as
| to the character of the wound which
caused Gray's death and the position
| of the body at the time he arrived at
| the ranch.
Deputy Sheriff f. f. Cummings, who
was called to the ranch after the
shooting, told of guarding the body un.
til the arrival of the coroner and gave
a general description of the ranch.

ly the same as at the coroner s inquest
when they described their arrest by
Mccoy and his brother, Joe, and Gray Is

alleged murder of Ferdinand Hoch-
brunn, aged millionaire, was confident
today as ever, despite her purported
onfession of the crime.
She turned away proffered condol-
ences of many friends she seemed to
have made during ahe two months she
was employed here before her arrest.
~ will clear myself-there is moth
ING for me to worry about she told
them.
Miss Skarin, when asked regarding
plans for her defense, indicated she
had none.
CAN the money I have is what |
earned as a stenographer and that
wouldn pay for much of lawyer,
she said.
She declared she would not fight
eXtradition.
The alleged confession was made
first on Tuesday night to Police Lieu
tenant William Kent, of Seattle, ac-
cording to Kent. 1t was made verbally
and was expanded and reiterated yes
/ terdav afternoon when Kent was per
mitted by Oakland police to take Miss
Skarin out for lunch and later strolled
with her through the park.
Crowds in the park saw the two
| talking earnestly, but no one suspected
girl was telling the alleged story OF

Miss Skarin approved a written state

|, CHICAGO, Sept. 7.--The policy COM
mittee of the striking shopmen was
called to meet here monday to ''ratify
certain agreements tentatively made
with eastern railroads, - union leader
declared here today.
Union officials here refused to be
quoted.
"We can t talk. The gigantic under
taking we are conducting might be
wrecked by premature publicity, -
ohm Scott, secretary of the shopmen s
organization, declared.
Scott declared that the policy com
mittee was meeting here for only one
purpose and that was to discuss the
terms of the proposed settlement.
cit is an expensive proposition bring
ing 90 men to Chicago from all parts
of the country. We couldn t do it
unless there was something unusually
important at stake.
''This report that the policy com-
mittee was called o consider the Daugh-
erty injunction is not true.
Several members of the executive
committee were in session here today
formulating plans for Mondays S meet
ing.
Separate Agreements
Striking shopmen are making their
supreme effort to gain peace agree
ment with approximately 30 eastern
and western railroads.
Railroad executives here continued
to deny that n peace agreement had
been reached but indicated that sucn
a settlement may result from the latest
move.
Shop craft leaders under the direc-
tion of Bert NJ. Jewell, president, offer
ed q compromise agreement to these
| roads which in recent negotiations
proved the most amenable.
Jewell S whereabouts were still mat
ter of conjecture today. The latest
report was that the strike leader was
near Chicago and that his personal rep
resentatives were carrying on negotia
/ tions with the eastern roads.
The more powerful lines involved in
J the settlement Were said to be the
New York Central, the Baltimore and
Ohio, the Northwestern, the Burling
ton, the Northern Pacific and the
Southern Pacific.
| The Pennsylvania railroad was re-
ported to be leading the group opposed
to any settlement.
The policy committee of the shopmen
was also expected to discuss the Daugh-
erty injunction. Hearing on the mo-
! tion to make the injunction permanent
will start Monday.
Hale Holden, president of the Burl-
ington, absolutely denied that any
peace negotiations were under way.
The Northwestern has advertised for
its shopmen to return to work, declar-
ing that ''every possible effort to set
tie the strike through the national off
ices has failed
| The Northwestern promised fair
and just treatment. 4"
Ii. E. Byram, president of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and st. Paul, stated
that he had ''heard that peace negotia.
