Clenum was caught yesterday by Patr olman Thomas L. Minogue after the officer had chased him a distance of twenty blocks. He was arraigned in court on charge of burglary and his case was continued until Saturday,
 Clenum yesterday afternoon went to the home of Mrs. Antone Olsen at 3S Orland street, and knocking at the rear door asked for a fictitious person. He was told that no such person was known there and he then returned to the front of the house and entering the front door proceed ed upstairs. Here he secured about $25 in cash and two gold watches and made his way outside again. His haste in trying to escape from the vii cinity of the house aroused the sus- picion of neighbors who called the police and he was finally overtaken after long chase.

FOR DOUBLE HEADER

Both the boys and girls bas-
ketball teams from Madison Hi
play teams from Versailles here
at the Madison Hi gym Friday
night at 8 o'clock. The boys
were victorious last week over
Clark County Hi at Winchester.
The last time the local fans saw
them perform was before Christ
mas when they lost to NincheS-
ter City Iii. They have develop
eel into a much faster aggrcga-
ton since that game In fact.
they have progressed i'm every
'way. In passing they seem To BE
far superior to the work they
showed against Winchester. hey
throw the ball with much more
accuracy than OF that date and
cover the floor with greater
speed. Vt eaging the basket the
MadisonianS have gradually be
come real masters of that Vi
tai thing in Basketball. Madison
is considered stronger in her de
Tense than offenSe. Due L. the
line work of the guards they
usually hold the enemy To very
few points. They are by No
means slow on the otfcnsc. With
good passing they carry the bali
from the enemv'S territory MANY
times within striking distance oi
their goal.
Coach LaSSiter has made 100
leinitc announcement about his
lineup, but Hurst and ClouSc at
guards. Harry Stone and Talton
Stone at forward, and Joe
Reeves at center are expected Ia
get the call.
The girls. although defeated at
Clark County Hi by the fair sc@
of that institution. expect To- get
ON the winning side by victory
over the Versailles team. The
girls representing Madison arc
small, but make up for their size
with Spccd and lighting spirit.
They fight until be la. whistle
blows. This wonderful spirit. in
which they surpasS the boy, OF
Madison. carried them 10 victory
over Eastern Normal and Win
chester female teams. Pass work
and good goal shooting add to-
their effectiveness. Everybody
come and help pull for Madison
