lieved that several other persons had
been burned to death.

when the flames were discovered, many
barely escaping to the street in their
night clothes.

JOHN A. ROSE TO
SPONSOR PLAY
Chosen Representative of
Playground and Recrea-
ton Association.
APPEAL FOR FUNDS

Kenosha is to have part in the
movement for organized play which is
sweeping the country, under the lead
ership of the Playground and Recrea-
tion Association of America. John A.
Rose of the Nash Motors company has
been appointed by the association as
a representative of the movement in
Kenosha.
The association at intervals chooses
an outstanding man in a community to
bring the recreation work of the city
into direct contact with national head
quarters. The Playground and Recre-
alton association is an organization to
which municipalities look for guidance
in the conducting of recreation pro-
grams and Fairgrounds. The move
ment requires funds to make the work
possible, and Mr.. Rose, as sponsor has
signed a letter of appeal which the
association has sent out to represen-
tative citizens of Kenosha.
Work Needs Assistance.
Mr.. Rose was chosen as sponsor of
the movement in Kenosha because of
his active interest in recreation, and
of his wide influence in the communi-
~. OuIy GuIOuSn SuCH uIE0CI COnLdCGS
with citizens in various localities, is
the association enabled to accomplish
it's ends.
The national movement for organ
lied recreation is one to provide intel
ligent leadership for play, more and
better Fairgrounds, and to develop a
better spirit in communities. Their
gospel to adults is 'Play is a good
outlet for worried minds and tired
bodies"
The organization has had at its head
such men as Joseph Lee, who is now
president; Theodore Roosevelt, Luther
Gulich, Jacob Riis, John Adams, John
H. Findley, Charles W. Eliot, Samuel
Mather and Myron C. Herrick.
For Public Service.
The association has $500 members
throughout the United Statesmen
and women who control the work and
expenditures.
1t has a community service depart
ment which trains and helps maintain
civic recreation, and promotes solidar-
ity of interest in the work of recrea-
ton.
Kenosha's recreation system is I'M
der the direction of George E. Bick-
ford, who was sent out by the associa-
tion for Kenosha's needs. Rapid prog
ress has been made in the past two
years here, and plans are being laid
for still further activity in the future.

Announcement that the large damage
suit brought by H. G. Maddox against
the Kenosha Retailers association, its
officers and members, and of the coun-
ter-claim of the Retailers against Mr..
Maddox would be dropped by mutual
agreement, was made today by the two
litigants, clearing the circuit court
calendar of a suit which promised to
be most bitterly fought. The suit is
to be dismissed by mutual agreement
of the parties upon the carrying out OF
certain stipulations which will clear up
the tangle out of which the suit arose.
The suit was filed more than year
ago. Mr. Maddox in seeking damages
to the extent of $4,000 alleged that at
the time he left the employ of the
Kenosha Retailers association a letter
had been sent out which damaged his
reputation and was libelous. Mr.. Mad
dock was formerly secretary of the
Retailers association and the letter in
question was sent out at the time that
he left this position.
Named Prominent Dealers.
The suit was brought against the
Retailers association and also against
all of the directors and officials of the
association, naming many of the most
prominent business men and firms in
the city as defendants in the suit. Ac
cording to the agreement which has
now been reached, the suit against the
association and against all officials and
members named as co-defendants will
be dropped.
After the damage suit was filed, the
Retailers association in a counter
claim asserted that the statements
made in the letter were true and set
this up as defense.
Agree to Send Letter.

New Concern Takes Over
Whittier Motors Plant
at Kenosha.
NEW FIRM in MERGER

Another chapter was written in the
Strengthening out of the tangled af-
fairs of the WHITTIER Motor company
today when the title of the plant was
formally transferred to the re-or-
ganized company when Robert Burs-
ner, treasurer of the new concern,
handed check for $23,079 to A. b.
Mccall, trustee in bankruptcy for the
Whittier company. The check was
handed over in the presence of the
stockholders and officials of the Anal
gamated Motors corporation, as the
merger is known which recently ac-
quired control of the Whittier property.
The transaction opens the way for
the new company, which will continue
under the old name of the WHITTIER
Motors company, to start operation
here within a very short time. In
concluding the transaction Mr.. Burs-
ner stated that it had been made pos

Family Circle Is
Broken By Death

Death broke one of the most inter-
esting family circles in Wisconsin with
the claiming of Mrs. Elizabeth
Schwartz, 76, at East Troy, Wisconsin,
the news of whose death reached ke-
nosha this morning. For more than
fifty years there have lived in East
Troy three couples, each of whom has
been married more than the half CEN
fury period. Mr.. and Mrs. Paul
Schwartz, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Schwartz
and Mr.. and Mrs. John Schwartz, the
latter being the deceased, made up this
unique family group. The death of
Mrs. Schwartz is the first break in
the circle of the three families.
Mrs. Schwartz is survived by her
husband, by nine children and by sew
eral grandchildren. She was an aunt
of Attorney Clifford E. Randall of
Kenosha, who was called to East Troy
by the death.

city should act to check the installa-
tion Of curb gasoline pumps, was
brought up by petition asking for a
permit to install such a pump. City
Manager Osborn suggested that gen
eral policy should be adopted to modi-
fly the issuance Of permits for installa-
ton of such pumps. The one in ques-
ton was refused because it was
claimed that the owner had already
cluttered up the curbing with two
pumps and an oil station.
Anton Kilikivicus found a way to
secure building permit for the alter
ing of a structure at the corner of
Sheridan road and Broad street, por-
ton of Sheridan road which would be
included in the proposed widening
project, when he offered to free the
city from any damages in connection
with the widening of the street,
if he be allowed now to proceed with
the building.
Change Three Salaries.
The city official and salary ordi-
nance was up for second reading. An
amendment was passed whereby the
salary of the Office of city manager
was mace 9S,OUU instead OF 9S,UUU ana
the ordinance passed as previously
read. The ordinance for the fire and
police departments was also read. The
only changes in these of much conse-
quence being the change in the sal
aries of the chief of fire department
and the chief of police, each now to
receive $4,000 instead of $2,70O.
The coming ordinance was scheduled
for second reading but the council! was
called upon to consider the question
that the provision of the law stipu-
! lated that a hearing should be held on
! it as amended and in order to carry
out this provision January the 7th
was set as the date for such hearing.
| The council voted favorably on a
proposition to transfer funds as set
| in the 1923 budget to other funds in
order to use the money to finish out
the year. Some of the funds are over
drawn while others have besn almost
untouched, due to economies worked
out during the year. The resolution
as passed merely transferred this
money from one fund to another.
