STUDENTS BATTLE
POLICE AT EVANSTON
Tear Bombs and Guns Fail to
Halt Riot Staged at
Northwestern.

Evanston, nl.-Tear bombs and fire
arms used by Evanston police failed to
halt riot staged by 1,20O Northwest
ern university students In protest
against Michigan's claim to the Big
Ten football championship
The police were thrown to the
ground and roughly handled. An aban-
doned, partly wrecked fraternity house
was set on fire. Firemen who tried to
extinguish the blaze were thrown
aside and tires and hose were cut.
Mayor Bartlett was sEugged when
he sought to interfere with words Of
timely advice and the automobile of
Chief of Police Wiltberger was turned
over and so badly damaged that he
was unable to use it again during the
night.
Eight students were arrested. Fire
men asserted that they were discov-
cred turning in a false alarm
So serious did the situation become
that Chief of Police Collins of Chicago
received from the Evanston authori-
ties hurry call for assistance. Two
squads of policemen, armed with shot
guns and bombs. were dispatched to
the scene.
The trouble began, it is said, with
the announcement that Coach Yost of
Michigan had given the members of
his team gold footballs emblematic of
championship. Then it was learned
that a consensus poll taken among Chi
cago newspapers and news agencies
showed that Michigan, despite the fact
that the Wolverines had been beaten
by Northwestern, were favored as
champions.

Mrs. Rhinelander Poses
Before Jury to Shou Color

New York.-The two mysterious let
tiers from Leonard Kip Rhinelander
to his negroid wife, written before
their marriage, were read after an
impassioned conflict between at
torneys on the two sides. They proved
to be every bit as shocking as was
expected. They were such that Su-
preme Court Justice Morschauser or
dered all women excluded from the
court during the reading.
When both letters had been read
and he was asked why he wrote them
he said that "Alice asked me to-"
Mrs Rhinelander was told to go
into the jury room, where before the
jury and a lawyer from each side she
barred the upper part of her body.
She was crying as she was led to the
room and crying as she left it, but her
ordeal seemed to convince some Of
those who were present that she was
dark hued. 1t was one of the most
extraordinary moments of this extraor-
binary case.
