The St. Joseph observer., 1922-09-23

J. T.. Hull of Maryville, a member
of the Constitutional convention, in
an article printed IN the adjoining
column, takes the editor Of the Farm
Bureau News to task for the recent
attempts of this paper to shed little
light on the convention. Mr. Hull
says the News criticisms are "piffle'
or words to that effect and attempted
to leave the impression that a most
unfair attack has been made on the
convention. He also charges that the
writer Of the articles in the News was
not informed regarding the doings Of
the convention.
1t might surprise Mr.. Hull to know
| Just how much the News editor knows
about the convention. For his infor-
nation, It may be stated that a study
Of the official records of the conven-
tion shows that since the convention
first met on May 10, up to and IN
Guiding August %, total OF 102 days
sessions have been held on only sew
enty seven days and that includes the
first six days when virtuslly nothing
was done while the members fenced
and jockeyed in an effort to organize
select officers and adopt rules. Nc
record was kept Of those six days sc
we will pass over them.
Hull Absent so Days
Beginning with the seventh day or
which session was held, the record!
show that out of the IT sessions Mr.
Hull attended only SO, being absent OF

marked absent with leave" To tn

pay" Counting the twenty-five day
he was absent and the twenty-five o
the 102 days since the convention frs
met on which there were no sessions
. we find that Mr.. Hull was absent
} total Of exactly fifty days out OF
possible 102.
Mr.. Hull is a newspaper man him

Columbia Grew
Given Final Big
Shake-Up by Rice

POUGHKEEPS1E, y. Y. June l2.--
Judging By the exhibition Of rowing
given by the Columbia varsity crew on
the Hudson this morning, Jim Rice. the
veteran Blue and White mentor, has at
last found a combination close TO the
best he can produce this year. Another
big shake up this morning. which left
but four men Of Saturdays eight in
the Edwin Gould and advanced a cor
responding number from the junior
shell, was the means 20 the end.
Mayo, Christie, Lowell and Ruffalo
were reduced 10 numbers three. two.
six and seven Of the junior combina-
tion, while Captain SwinOurne. lnce
Brown and Medigovitch were put in at
numbers FIVE, four, two and bow. re-
spcct.yely. ince. did not come from the
junior eight, but had been laid up with
a strained back. Willet was reduced
from the second boat 70 the third for
the time being.
In the morning sprints this new line
up showed a great improvement over
Saturday. Whereas last week the
junior eight gave the big shell all it
could DO 10 keep up with II. this morn
ing the outfit, stroked by Frank Brodil,
showed the back Of its coxswain at
will. In the seven miles Of travelling
over the course the second boat was
not once able to keep lead over the
varsity.
Rice had planned n long paddle for
the afternoon. but the rough water
which developed about noon made 1t
impossible for him TO do more than
hug the west shore for late after
noon pull.
Although il was thought possible
that Syracuse might arrive to-day,
there was no sign Of them in the late
afternoon. Il was definitely reported,
however, that they would appear to-
morrow. probably on the carly morning
train Penn is looked for tomorrow.
with possibly Washington, while Cor
nell is expected Thursday. Navy prob

Ten years ago the Madison Avenue

was contaminated. Fear Of litigation
by the Murray Hill Association caused
tho prospective buyers 10 back out 81

back the property II the operators were
restricted in their use Of the corner

the old church had been sold and tall

ray Hill residents moved 20 prevent tho
Improvement. They claimed that tho
restrictive covenant prevented the
erection Of tail apartment house. Inc
Court Of Appeals did not agree with
the residents on this point. II ruled
that. since an apartment house was
residence. there was no infringement
on the covenant. although the supposi-
tion Is that old John Murray had only
one-family houses IN mind when he
drew the covenant
Heavy Blow TO Murray Hill
The decision was n heavy blow 10
Murray Kill, for II established a wedge

that might be about TO fall into the

Soon after the court decision the op-
orators sold the property 20 a Mr..
Jones. Wall STREET business man. The
old church had been torn down and a
hole dug. When the property was
taken over By Mr.. Jones he put n high
board fence around the site and In that
condition IL has remained. II has cost
Mr. Jones about 5000 in taxes alone.
