Ten Mruculousy Escape Death As Speeder Jumps Track
KenOshan Wins
High Honor In
cold Boston

For decades Boston has claimed the
distinction of being the hub of liter
airy life of America.
And yet it remained for former
Kenoshan, a young man from the ''un-
cultured middle west" to carry off a
high literary honor in cold Boston"
recently. That Kenoshan was Earl
Marlatt, formerly a member of the
staff of the "Kenosha Evening News
who on Tuesday was awarded the
annual prize offered by the Massachu-
sets group of the American Literary
association for the best lyric under
fifty lines in length.
There were more than fifty poems
entered in the contest, which was judg-
ed by three recognized poets. Mr.. Mar
latt submitted two poems; his "Icarus,,
about Woodrow Wilson, took two firsts
and his other poem "Recapitulation,'
took the other first. He thereby won
both first and second honors. The prize
carries with it a purse of gold.
The honor is one which is most
coveted in literary circles in the east.
1t is not the first literary honor which
Mr.. Marlatt has won; several years
ago two of his poems published in
Poetry" were starred in the Bralthe-
waite Anthology of American Verse.
Mr.. Marlatt writes poems now and
them" but devotes most of his time
to other work. He is an assistant pro-
lessor in Boston University.
He is a brother of w. T. Marlatt and
Ernest F. Marlatt of Kenosha.

by Judge E. B. Belden in circuit court.

Youngsters joprneyed to Waukegan on
November II, 1923 where they were
pronounced man and wife. According
to Fraakiia's testimony lie girl, nav
ing become wife, immediately &c
velopcd jealous streak which he had
not hitherto observed.
If another girl passed therr on the
street. and he 50 much as glanced
her way, the wiis became crazeo and
let it be known sllat she was not GO
ing to stand eor such treatment.
On two occasions she attempted sui
eide by drinking iodine.
Made $40 a Week.
The lad then told of making about
$40 week which he was in the habit
of turning over to her. However, af-
ter a time things got so bad that she
refused to get him any food, and
continually accused him of flirtations.
His health began to go bad due to
worry over his domestic difficulties.
Eventually he became so nervous that
he was unable to work, and her nag
ging did little to relieve the situation
To make matters worse the wife an
nounced on several occasions that she
would kill him when he went to sleep.
and as result he sat up until after
three o'clock in the morning holding
his head in an attempt to cheat the
sandman and the grim reaper. This
further undermined his health.
The boys mother took the stand and
under the Questioning of Attorney
Calvin Stewart, who had been appoint
ed guardian for the boy, gave testi-
mony that corroborated his, statements.
