Adams Pays Fine After
Baking When Officer
Arrests Him.
GOT A BLACK EYE
His Friend Pondus Whom He
Was Taking Home Has Mo-
ments of IndecisiOn in Court.

Mike Adams was in court Tuesday
and so was John Pondus. Mrs. Adams
was in court also, but not a defend
ant; she merely came to take her hus-
bands part and the part of the other
man. Mike Adams had a black eye.
He said Police officer Joseph Beam
had given it to him. He also@ said
many uncomplimentary things about
Police officer Joseph Beam, which
evidently the court did not believe,
for the court fined both defendants.
At the police station, apropos of one
thing or another, it was said today
that officer Beam was to be cited for
creditable mention on the regular
bulletins which are issued from time
to time at the chiefs direction by the
secretary.
What 1t Was All About.
Police officer Beam was making his
rounds the other night when he stop
ped Ford truck going east on Grand
avenue, for driving with an open cut
out. At the wheel was Mike Adams.
Officer Beam ordered the driver to
keep on going east and then turn
south and east again; in fact he told
the driver that he was under arrest
and should go down to the city hall.
Adams refused.
Everyone knows, everyone who
knows Joe Beam, that Police Officer
Beam is the most gentle of men, but
he has strong arm, and he knows
his duty as an officer. He proceeded
to compel Adams to drive down to the
police office when a man sitting be-
side Adams, and whom Adams was
driving home, jumped on Beams neck.
To make long story short, in a lit
tie while there were three persons
in the police office, officer Beam, Mike
Adams with black eye and John
Pondus. Adams was charged with
driving with an open cut-out and
Pondus with resisting an officer.
In the municipal court Adams had
the usual long story. He was fined
50 and costs for the infraction Of the
city ordinance. Pondus, who spoke
through an interpreter, insisted that
he had done nothing wrong, but plead
ed guilty. Judge Slater demonstrated
with him, insisting that if he believed
he had done nothing wrong, he should
plead not guilty. The defendant in
sisted, saying that he did not have
money to pay lawyers, etc.
Then POndus Changes His Plea.
II think can see why yon insist
on pleading guilty" said the court,
There is perhaps more to this that
you do not want to have get out
Twenty-Five dollars and costs, or forty
days"
Changes Plea Once More.
Then for some reason after another
conference, Pondus changed his plea
yet again. He entered once more a
plea of guilty. Pondus' wife was also
present, and she begged the court to
allow her to go to jail to serve the
sentence in lieu of fine for her hus-
band.

SET DATE FOR
H. S. CORNERSTONE
School Board Plans Elab-
crate Ceremony on Fri
day, Nov. q.
TO MAKE IT BIG EVENT
Details of Program Are Being
Arranged by a Special
Committee of Board.

Jay B. Glerum, chairman of the
special committee in charge of the
corner stone laying ceremony for the
new high school building, announced
before the meeting of the board in
the administration building on Tues
day evening that the committee had
selected Friday afternoon of Novem-
Der 81 for the ceremonial at the high
school site. Working with Mr.. Glerum
on the committee are Mrs. Rose B.
McCluskey and William j. Threinen.
Nothing but the date has been set
as yet, but elaborate plans will be
evolved at once whereby the cere-
monial on a week from this Friday
will be the most solemnly impressive
of any similar event in Kenosha.
The committee has been waiting, it
was pointed out, for some suitable day
at which time a certain required pro-
portion of the construction work on
the high school building would be
completed.
4 The program for the afternoon,
which is planned to begin at two
o'clock, will include speaker of ma
tional prominence, it is expected, and
arrangements are now going on where
by such a speaker can be brought to
Kenosha on that day. There will
also be addresses by local educa-
tional leaders.
The committee is also considering
several proposals and suggestions as
to what to place in the cornerstone
of the building when it is laid into it's
place. Members of the school board
have offered numerous recommends
tions and all of these are being given
proper consideration. Among the
things that have been suggested are
copies of local newspapers of that
date; a survey of present school
facilities in the city of Kenosha; a
prediction Of what may be needed for
generations in the future; tablet
with the names of the members of the
present school board, etc.
Chairman Glerum realizes that there
might be a great many more worth
while suggestions which the commit
tee should consider in making up the
contents of the little box which will
be laid in the cornerstone. He is in
viting any other recommendations
which any one might make. These
may be addressed to the committee
at the administration building or to
this newspaper.
