SPORTS

Arthur PITT won a silver loving cup,
the Golfers Magazine trophy, at the
Lakeside Country Club links last Fri
day There were sixty-eight. The
runner-up was Paul Esch and Mr.. PITT
won the final game by a score of 2 up.
1t was a sad, sad week end for Man
itowoc sport fans. Our pennant win

The local high school lost to Sheboy-
gan high at football l3 to 0, playing
here.
Our city football team were trounced
at kaukauna by the American Legion
team there 2O-6.
In the clash of pennant winners
Buster Braun was there all the way.
The locals are credited with six hits
but they never came close enough to-
gether to do any harm.
Trentman also pitched good bah but
swift pitched ball which hit his throw
ing arm while at bat in the fourth in
ming is said to have contributed mate
rally to the defeat.
In the sixth inning Sheboygan put
the game securely away in the refriger-
ator when three hits two bases on balls
and couple of wild heaves netted
three runs.
Manitowoc will never beat their old
rivals, except occasionally by accident.
until the great Buster has one arm am
putated
The high school football team was
beaten but not dsgraced They were
up against a heavier team that is rated
as one of the best high school teams
in the state. Sheboygan made touch
down in the first five minutes of play
and another just before the final whis-
tie blew. The rest of the time the To-
Gals held their own. They weakened
toward the end and seemed to quit, the
unforgivable sin of football team.
They did not play the class of football
they showed a week before against Ke-
waunee. Twice they carried the ball
up to within striking distance but
lacked the punch to put it over.
AT Kewaunee the American Legion
team seemed to think it was zero hour
in France once more when the game
opened as they put the oval over the
goal line twice before our boys caught
their breath, In the second quarter
the local held them and in the third
each side made touch down. In the
fourth neither scored Outside the first
quarter the teams played even, but un-
fortunately the first quarter counts in
the score this year.
The famous Lauerman twins open
the Semi-pro season here next Sunday.

IN MUNICIPAL COURT

LuNdIu NlTlll, WnuSC name OF JOnn
Robertson as given to the police last
week was too suspiciously suggestive
of phoney monnicker, was offered re-
muneratiye employment by Judge
Schmidt Saturday. Edward Cor John)
accepted the position which will last
for sixty days. He owns a farm, he
says, in Marathon county, but operat-
ing it results in a loss, due perhaps to
the fact that it is one of that kind of
farms that requires some labor to show
black ink balance. So Edward (or
John) took to the road with his trustv
motor car and reached here before the
funds gave out. He then became a
pan-handler de luxe, begging by motor,
His wife was with him. The police are
not yet satisfied as to his ownership of
the automobile he was driving.
Last week there were court house
rumorS of criminal proceedings when
the county clerk refused to issue a
marriage license to man over fftv
years of age, named Frank Hitchcock
to girl giving her age at fifteen. The
girls mother was willing that the cere-
mony he performed The girl is said
to be really only fourteen. The author
itleS were evidently surer of their
ground a few days later as the sheriff
went to Weyauwega Friday and
brought Hitchcock back here. Satur-
day he pleaded guilty to unlawful rela-
tions with the girl.
County Judge Chloupek took two
younger children from the mother. The
details are said to be revolving Hitch
cock has been employed here as a race
horse trainer.
Monday Frank Sires, aged 81,
Floyd Engel, aged 26, and the girls
mother, Mary Krober, were in court
charged with offenses in relation TO the
situation at the KrOber home. The
mother and girl on the stand implicat-
ed all three men in serious offenscs.
The woman pleaded guilty and Sires
pleaded guilty to one of three charges.
Engel pleaded not guilty and his hear
ing was set for Wednesday.
Amateur hootch staged a comeback
Fln court this week. The Two Rivers
police had three alleged sinners lined
up at the bar of justice. They found
still and thirty gallons of mash at
the home of Casper Feuerstein and
Casper thought he'd better own up. He
paid $3.50.
Frank kulp at whose residence three
pints of the alleged beverage were un-
earthed also pleaded guilty, but he
couldn't raise the $3.50 and will prob
ably be put to the necessity of board
ing it out at the castle D'Schuette for
ninety days.
Charles Prasecke was the third, and
he wasn't so faint hearted He init
mated that he was from Joplin and re.
quircd to be shown. The district at
torney will attempt to satisfy him on
October ~.
Paul leSo and Joseph Glisch com
prised the week end roundup of drunk
and disorderlies. As neither could
seriously dispute the allegations as to
their state of inebriety, they paid re
spectlvely $40 and S5 and went on
their way with the usual admonitions.

Charles A. Dana, proprietor of the
New York Sun, is dead, For years he
has controlled the policy of that great
newspaper, and his vigorous pen has
often got him into Inconsistencies. 1t
is said that his paper had an enormous
circulation among men who were di-
rectly opposed to nearly every position
maintained by it. They liked it for the
enemies it made. In spite of Mr..
Dana's journalistic combatiyencss, he
was in private life kind and benevolent
and made many warm friends.
