IN DEFENSE
Of Rl;KARO
Revelation by Promoters Law
yer Twice Halted During
Course of Trial.
Nv Int-rpst,e~si New. Service.

NEW YORK, March 28.-Ru-
mors of a pending surprise" in
the defense of TEX" Rickard
continued to circulate about the
Criminal Courts Building as the
boxing promoter resumed the wit
ness stand for further cross-ex-
animation on the accusat tions made
against him by four little girls
today.
Hints Of Surprise.
Hints OF the possible development
have been made twice in the trial
proceedings once when Max ID.
Steuer, counsel for the promoter,
started to tell 1T his opening address
of a call made on Rickard by some
man, whose identity was not dis
closed. only 10 he stopped by Justice
wasservorcl. and again yesterday,
when wi,,ium J. Kelleher. agent or
IN. Children's Society, was called TO
the stand, only to be excused with
out interrogation.
Further attempts by Rickards g
story on record are expected.
In his direct testimony yesterday,
tn. accused promoter went over his
life from boyhood. and apparently
told a frank, open story of his career
as gambling house and saloon op-
orator in the West and in the kloc'
dixie.
He denied the accusations made
against him by the girls in toto
and corroborated the alibis estab-
lished by preceding witnesses, OF
his movements on the dates figur-
ing in the charges, in detail.
During cross-examination, the
promoter denied that he had made
a large fortune by cheating in
gambling. denied he had main
tanned disorderly resorts. that he
had been whipped by woman at
Rawhide, New, or that he had been
run out" of Hot Springs, Ark,
for cheating at cards.
Richard testified that he spent
the evening Of Jan. %, one OF the
dates figuring in the present case
at the home Of Max Steuer' ms
lawyer.
Told Verch to Keep Quiet.
The defendant admltteu naVhhe
summoned Harry Verch. janitor OF
the house at 20 West Forty-seventh
street. one of the places Saraf
Schoenfeld says she visited with
the promoter, in Madison Square
Garden and telling him to "keer
quiet" but he said his precautior
was concerned with supply Of
liquor he had stored at the Forty
seventh street place.
The case probably will go to the
| jury tonight.
Richard was closely questioned by
| Assistant District Attorney Pecors
about the details Of the Pennsyl
vania Dartmouth football game III
claimed to have been attending or
| November 70, 192l--the date named
| in the indictment against him.
Rickard admitted that 1t was the
only big college football game M
had ever seen and knew nothing
| about the game at all. He hat
gone, he said, Ito get the air. HI
said he was at the Polo Groundi
about three hours.

o'clock.

BY CHIEF

cused of Disobeying
Evans Orders.

Charges filed today against Mrs.
Nina C. Van Winkle, lieutenant
in charge of the Washington Po-
lice Department, alleging she had
disobeyed orders of superior Off
GERS of the department, created a
mild sensation.
While it has been reported that
Mrs. Van Wrinkle had had dif-
ferences with higher officials Of
the department, it was thought in
some sources that they would be
smoothed out without forcing her
to trial.
Trial Set for Thursday.
Mrs. Van Wrinkle was ordered to
face the Police Trial Board in Po-
lice Court at 10 O'Clock Thursday
morning. She will then have an op-
portunity to answer the allegations
that she had been "disobedient," and
that her act of refusing to release
TIVE girls from the House OF Deten.
ton was considered .'prejudicial to
the good reputation of the Police De;
partment."
The charges. were made against
Mrs. Van Wrinkle. who for several
wears has been head Of the Woman s
Bureau, by Major Daniel Sullivan
superintendent OF police. Complain
ant against the lieutenant Is ASSIST
ant Superintendent Of Police Charles
A. Evans.
The charges were handed Lieu
tenant Van Wrinkle this morning oy
Can't. w. S. Shelby, chief executive
official to Major Sullivan. MRS.
Van Wrinkle made no comment, ana
has refused to make any statement.
She is expected to fight vigorously
the allegations, and an array or
counsel is expected to represent her
when she is brought to trial.
News in Times Spreads.
Announcement in the midday
edition of The Times that the
charges had been preferred against
Lieutenant Van Wrinkle spread
rapidly through the rank and file OF
the Police Department, as well as
in social service and other circles In
which she has been an active par
ticipant since coming TO Wasnlng-
/ ton.
The charges against Mrs. Van
| Wrinkle are the outcome ot her
refusal to release two young girls Il
weke ago fiom the House OF Deten'
ton when ordered to do so by Assist
| ant Superintendent Evans. IL 3
said Mrs. Van Wrinkle made IT
appear that her department was
! independent. in a way, of other
branches Of the service, and that
she was to accept orders from Major
| Sullivan alone.
Clash Over Runaways.
The two girls were Gwendolyn
Pell sixteen years old, and Jane
Evans. fourteen, who were held as
runaways. Their parents are said to
have reached Washington early on
| Thursday last and sought their re-
| lease.
II is said Detective Sergeant Fred
| Cornwell, acting night inspector OF
| the detective bureau, asked Tor the
release of the girls in the custody oil
their parents. This request, 1t Is al
lged, was refused, and a similar re-
quest refused when Assistant Super
! intendent Evans demanded that the
girls be turned over to their parents
Major Sullivan later ordered the re-
lease of the girls.
Robert l.. williams, assistant cor
poration counsel. is chairman OF the
trial board. The other members are
Capt. C. p. M. Lord, of the Tenth
precinct, and Capt. l.. j. Stoll, OF the
Ninth precinct.
| Mrs. Van Wrinkle will have the
privilege OF appealing to the District
Commissioners from the decision OF
the trial board.
