BALL GAME RAIDED
BY FREDERICK POLICE
Local and Hagerstown Players

Law Violators.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


FREDERICK, Md, July 25.-Mem-
bers of the local and Hagerstown
base ball teams were arrested for play
ing in the local park. The Municipal
swimming pool was thrown open to
the public without charge when base
ball fans threatened action against the
city for charging on Sunday. and the
Barbara Fritchie museum was ordered
closed for the same reason.
Members of the Frederick County
Ministerial Association, Lords Day
Alliance and Law and Order League,
demanded the arrest Of the base ball
teams. The base ball officials threat
ened prosecution of the city officials,
and officials of the museum would be
sought if admission charges were
made on Sunday.
Players of the two teams were re-
leased in $25 bond each. The game
was completed, however. following the
arrests, which were made at the end

.P0L|CEMAN'S AGE
.TOBE INVESTIGATED
Pvt. Harry C. Fuchs Charged
With FaIsifying to OBJ
tain Appointment.

The police trial board will be con-
it's history, Thursday, when it is called
upon to determine whether a police
man falsified his age in order to OBJ
tain an appointment.
The. central figure in the case is
Pvt. Harry c. Fuchs. who is on detail
at the police repair shop. He has been
cited to appear before the trial board
on a charge of conduct prejudicial to
the good order. reputation and dis
cipline of the Police Department as
a result of complaint by the Civil
Service Commission that discrep-
ancy exists in the records of his age.
Age Discrepancy Alleged.
When Fuchs was appointed to the
Police Department in January, 1923,
the commission claims that he gave
his age as 25 years, the minimum at
that time for an appointment to the
force. But Fuchs also was employed
at the Bureau of Mines and served
in the Army during the war, and
his age records in these branches of
the Government servke, it was said,
40 not tally with the record given for
his appointment to the police force.
In fact, the Civil Service Commits
sion has been led to believe that
Fuchs advanced his age in order to
come within the Police Department
25-year-age requirement.
A holly contested legal battle Is
anticipated when the case comes %
trial. Fuchs, it is said, has engaged
prominent Washington attorney to
defend him, and also has obtained an
affidavit from his mother certifying
that he was 25 years of age when he
was appointed to the police force.
Hall Case Charges Up.
The trial board also is scheduled to
consider Thursday the case of Police
men Benjamin r. Campbell and Will
liam S. Buchanan. The former is
charged with improper use of his
revolver in connection with the shoot
ing of Larry Hall in the Soldiers
Home grounds several weeks ago and
also with riding in the side car of
police motorcycle without the permits
sion of the commanding officer of
his precinct.
Buchanan Is charged with carrying
Campbell in the sidecar without
official authority.
