American Olympic committee" said
Mr. Prout. are unanimous in feel
ing that it is the duty of the ath-
letes of the coyo<ry to stay here this
year and generate interest in athlet-
les in this country, so that the
American Olympic team of 1924 will
be able to meet the very strenuous
vided
Sought by Europeans.
Many European countries are
anxious to have American athletes
in competition there this year, and
in some instances have arranged to
have these athletes act as demon
strators and coaches as well as take
ion of the A. A. U. officials, this
might jeopardize the amateur stand
ing of some of the best American
athletes and weaken our team for
next year.
I'm connection with the visit of
the woman swimmers to England,
the conditions imposed by the pro-
moters in England were of such ma
ture that no properly regulated ath-
letic organization could possibly con-
sent to have it's woman athletes com
pete. The tour included competi-
| tion every night in various swimming
pools and demonstrations for coaches
and English swimmers practically
every afternoon.
"As far as the trip of Charles w.
Paddock to France is concerned, no
action has been taken by the ma
tional registration committee. Pad
dock informed the officials that it
was his intention to go to France
The A. A. U. officials have cabled to
France for the purpose of learning
whether the meet in Paris has the
approval of the French athletic au-
| . ~ hnc IvnA n
ceived From information furnish
ed by Paddock it appears that the
, meet is not conducted by the Uni
versity of Paris. but is conducted by
some private organization which has
no official connection with the uni
versity.
Against PnddOck's Trip.
"A letter was received by the A. A.
U. authorities from a member of the
faculty of Paddock's college stating
that they advised very strongly
against Paddock's trip: that Paddock
had allowed athletics to interfere
/ with his serious work in life for the
past two years, and that this trip
would render worthless a whole
semeSter's work. Paddock informed
the committee that his trip is partly
for business purposes; that he was
unable to produce any correspondence
with responsible persons in Paris or
to furnish any statement as to the
amount he is to receive as expenses.
The officials of the A A u. are fear
full that Paddock will professionalism
himself for the Olympic games of 1924
and it would seem that there is some
likelihood that this may be one of
the results Of this trip"

APPEAL DISMISSED AND FINE
PAID IN VAGRANCY CASE

In the matter of the appeal of
Bence Smith to the district court,
after he had been held gully of
vagrancy in the city police court,
Smith was remanded to the custody
of peace officers when the appeal
hearing came up before Judge Cal
lahan last Monday, upon which ac-
ton by the judge, Smiths attorneys
moved for dismissal of the appeal,
thus throwing the case back to the
city court. Thereafter Smith paid
the original $40 fine assessed against
him by Judge Livingstone and was
permitted his freedom. The facts
in the case are that Smith was ar
rested on vagraney charge some
time ago. Upon trial before the
city judge he was declared guilty
and fined $40. Smith provided $50
cash bail and served notice of appeal
the district court from the decision
of the city judge. Judge Callahan
apparently indicated his disposition
in the matter by remanding Smith
to custody, and it was then that the
decision was made to pay the orig
inal fine.

ACT MAY DELAY
LIQUOR SALES

Druggists who apply for permits
to sell liquor under the Volstead act
must qualify as prescribed by the
new state license and tax act, it
was stated by prohibition officials
for Nevada. Senate bill No. 144,
which creates the office of inspector
of pharmacies to have supervision
over the sale of medicinal liquors, is
one of the latest measures to be
signed by the governor. The act
requires payment of a tax of fifty
cents on each liquor prescription
filed.
According to federal prohibition
officials, no government permits will
be issued until applicants have
satisfied them that they have COM
piled with the state act. This may
or may not serve to delay the sale
of liquor under the provisions of
the Volstead act, depending upon
the time it will require to put this
machinery in operation.
Thus far prohibition officials here
have not been notified of action by
the department in Washington on
any of the applications for permits
filed in Nevada and it was stated
that it may be another month be-
fore liquors can be sold legitimately
under the new order of things
Gazette.

indictment, and on Monday the re-
naming two indictments were dis
missed on motion of the district
attorney upon the ground of in
sufficiency of the state evidence.
The two trials on the first indict-
ment cost Humboldt county approx
mately $4,000 besides heavy
private loss to those directly and
indirectly interested on both sides.
The state was represented by AS
sistant Attorney General Powell of
Carson, Mr.. Barry of Reno, j. A.

and l.. G. Wilson, district attorney

were represented by Warren & Dig

ments by the state, there is nothing
left of the cases except for the tax
payers to settle.

FIRE PREVENTION
DAY APRIL 14TH
Fire Chief Asbury Has Novel Ideas
For Impressing Need of Fire
Precautions Upon Minds
of Winnemucca Residents

Fire Chief G. S. Asbury of the
Winnemucca Volunteer Fire De-
partment, is laying plans for Fire
Prevention day in this city, on April
Ia, and, with the assistance of j.
Stephens, chief of the Fire Pre-
vention Bureau of the Pacific Coast
together with the assistance of the
local Civic Club and other organi-
cations, promises to present num-
Der of features of local interest.
An essay contest on the subject
of "Fire Prevention" will be con-
Quoted in the local schools prior to
that date and the winners of the
contest, as selected by committee
composed of five members of the
Civic Club, will be presented with
flags or pennants from the local fire
department.
An invitation has been extended
to Governor Scrugham and to Fire
Chief Hawcraft of Reno to be in
attendance and assist in making the
presentations at an afternoon meet
ing to be held at the Nixon opera
house on the stated day, when Mr..
Stephens, who has devoted his un-
divided attention to fire prevention
work for many years, will address
the local townspeople in regard to
the work of the department, which
will be followed, in the evening, by
banquet to the visiting guests, the
local officials and members of the
fire department.
Due to a Misunderstanding, last
year, flag which was to have been
awarded to Winnemucca, by Cover
nor Boyle, for the best record in
fire prevention work in the state,
was not received, but instead was
awarded in an essay contest held in
the Virginia City schools, and, to
make the promise of the department
good, Mr.. Stephens will present an
other flag to the local schools upon
his visit here.
The Thos. H. Ince Company,
which is a strong supporter of the
work of the fire prevention depart
ment, has donated silver cup to
VIZ oNhAS Oodsl department Oh the
Fire Prevention Bureau, consisting
of ten or twelve of the western
states. and to the city making the
best fire prevention record for the
year, the cup is awarded for one
year, the name of the city being
engraved thereon and in conjunction
with the award, 5000 cash dona-
lion is made by the Ince Company
to the fire prevention fund of the
city receiving the award. The city
receiving the award three times,
will become the permanent owner
of the Ince trophy.
Winnemucca's fire prevention re-
cord is classed among the best re-
cords of the Pacific coast depart
ment and, with the cooperation of
the city extended to Chief Asbury
in this worthy cause, it should be an
easy matter to become the per-
manent possessor of the Ince cup.

OVERLAND TRAIL
MEETING CREATES
MUCH INTEREST

That the Overland Trail meeting,
which is scheduled for this week
end, in Elko, is attracting a good
deal of attention all over the north
ern part of the state, is evidenced
by articles in the different papers
all of which bring out the fact most
emphatically that they will be repre-
sented by a good-sized delegation,
when the opening session is called
to order by President Goodln.
This is the second road meeting
so far this spring, the previous one
being held in Reno, for the purpose
of setting the lengthy dispute which
has been going on over the Truckee
river route in the western part OF
the state.
Two governors will be present,
and it will be Elko's first chance to
receive Governor Scrugham in that
capacity since his election last No
vember. Governor Mabey, of Utah,
has also signified his intention of at
tending, and from all accounts a
good-sized delegation will be pres
emit from Utah, as well as Nevada.
Harvey M. Toy, chairman of the
California Highway Commission,
will also be among those present
and is scheduled to address the
meeting.
At this meeting it is proposed to
make definite plans for improving
and opening additional highways
connecting with adjoining states
and improving those which need at
tention within the state and as this
is meeting in which automobile
dealers are vitality interested, a
good many will be in attendance.
The Session opens Friday morn
ing and will last two days, closing
Saturday evening with a banquet
and dance given the visitors by the
Elko County Lions Club.-Elko
Free Press.
