COURT ID DECIDE
 NON.SUPP0RT CASE
Prosecutor and Defense Lawyer
 Argue Points Of Law

Judge F. R. Hungerford. counsel for Leo Dombrowski, aged 43. of 259 Grove street, and Prosecuting Attor- ncy J., G. Woods, who some time ago caused the arrest of Dombrow- ski on the charges of non support, argued the law before Judge Henry P. Roche in police court today. the contention of the defense being that inasmuch as Judge R. ". filling had suspended judgment after having heard the facts. the case was ended, while MT. Woods insisted that the law considers non support a con- tlnuiug offenso and suspension of judgment differs from an acquittal, I conviction or any other form of disposition of police court case.
 Domhrowski obtained divorce from his wife while she was in Flu another woman, When his first wife returned after an absence of ten years or more. she brought an ac- ton to have the divorce set aside and Judge Marvin in superior court granted petition. which automat- lcally invaliiated the second mar riage. Judge Hungerfori contended that the non support charge was disposed of by Judge Alling, but Mir. Woods replied that the records Of the case show that Dombrowski deceived his own attorney by telling him he did not know his first wife's European address and therefore could not serve notice on her of the action for divorce, whereas he not only knew her adrcSs but was com municating with her.
 The prosecuting attorney and the defense counsel gave Judge Roche citations 10 support their Conten- tions, and the disputed point will be decided shortly the judge said.

new Studebaker funeral coach to
his motorized equipment. The new

tone gray effect. trimmed in black.

ments. he said.

many as 200 persons during a fu-
neral. The chapel is a spacious room,
with a harmonious. dignified decora-
tive scheme. An increasingly large
number of funerals are being con-
Quoted in the chapel instead of in
private homes in order to avoid the
confusion attendant in smaller resi-
dences.
Approximately 500 funerals we're

dependability and safety. Our record
Of having carried more than $1,000,
600 persons without a serious in,
jury to any passenger is one of
which to be proud, but it is the eX

MAJORS SIGN CONTRACTS ON run
H0bituaI HoIdouts l.. Big

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Sane bust
ness men do not believe that the
recent scandals will make baseball
bankrupt, and neither do the play
ers, but for some reason the hired
help of the major leagues club own
ers are signing new contracts with
alacrity and smiles.
Before Rogers Hornsby was traded
out of the management of the world
champion St. Louis Cardinals to the
Giants and when the New York Yam.
KEGS heard a rumor that Babe Ruth
thought he might be worth $150,000
per on a new contract, there were
good reasons to believe that there
might be a concerted holdout move
ment this spring.
But when the scandals started
popping. when two of the greatest
veterans of baseball were eased out
of their jobs and when many of
the highest ranking stars in the
game were summoned to testify be-
fore Commissioner Lands, the mag
istrates began announcing the re-
ceipt of signed contracts from some
Of the most habitual salary disput-
ers in baseball.
Hornsby couldn't get what he
wanted from the st. Louis club, and
when he was given passage up the
AAr to New York it was thought
job more difficult than winning a
pennant in getting the prize ele-
plant OF the league on paper.
McGraw and Hornsby, however,
reached an agreement, on terms aft.
err conference of about ten min.
utes.
1t was reported at the time that
Hornsby asked for $4,000 a year
and got 1t with such little effort that
he felt he was a sucker for not de.
handing more.
McGraw's troubles seemed sure
when he manipulated a trade by
which he secured Burley Grimes
from the Brooklyn club, one of the
most addicted hold.outs in baseball,
but Grimes contract came back in
the next mail.
The st. Louis Browns were thought
to be in a mess when George Sisler
was deposed as the manager and was
threatened with transfer to some
less desirable club. Sisler signed
new contract as first baseman for
$4,000 which was said to have been
alcut of $4,000 in good dough.
Carl Mays, who used to give the
Yankees gray hairs when it came
contract time, was one of the first
Cincinnati Reds to get on paper.
Zach Wheat, Released by Brook
lyn, took a job from Connie Mack,
after a short telephone talk.
