Bu Times Special

WASHINGTON, June 15.-While
reading the financial pages of Cleve-
land newspapers last February, o.
P. Van Sweringen, newest railroad
wizard, concluded somebody was
trying to acquire control of the
Weeling g. Lake Erie, fast freight
short line from Pittsburgh to Toledo.
Van SWeringen knew if some out
slider acquired control of the road
it would be difficult and expensive
later to regain the property in order
to maintain its independent status.
In a confidential plan, previously
submitted to the interstate COM
merce commission for it's informa-
ton showing how the Pennsylvania,
New York Central, Nickel Plate,
and B. & o. hoped to develop their
system, it was provided the Wheel
ing & Lake Erie continue to be in
dependent.
Van Sweringen telephoned his
brokers that evening to buy Wheel
ing control. In three days he spent
$30,000,000 His operations caught a
number of Wall Street operators
short.
When control was acquired he
called in officials of the New York
Central and the B. g. O. and said:
IT have protected the situation.
Now do you want your share?" They
did The Pennsylvania did not
want any stock.
Van Sweringen related the story
to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission yesterday.

DR.. Hugo Eckener to demonstrate
the ability of the dirigible as a, rival

that he would make the world
fight in 1928, using the LIB, now

latter trip will be made to show theI
practicability of a regular air serv-

ice that the LZ-23 will be used
permanently.

Some of the more conservative dele

a suggestion that the church sane

step would improve social condi-

The Rev. Henry Lewis. youthful
rector of st. Andrews Church of
Ann Arbor, Mich, somewhat upset
the routine of the annual gathering
last night by advocating this liberal
step.
IF, to sanctify unmarried unions
would do away, as some urge it

double standard, and better protect
the children of legal marriages, then

PETITION To
Street CAR

Requests Settled in Green
Case, Superintendent
Announces.

Petition for reinstatement, with
all seniority rights, of all Indian
apolis Street Railway employees who
struck last July, and an increased
wage scale filed Tuesday with Su-
perintendent James P. Tretton by
James Green and four other ex-
ira board motormen, was turned
down promptly, Tretton announced
today.
Each of these requests was set
tied in the recent arbitration case
brought by Green before the pub
lie service commission" Tretton
said. "A 3 cents an hour raise was
granted Green at that time and the
company applied it to all car oper-
ators and>bus drivers. 1t seems to
me that a call for further arbitra-
ton is unfounded."
Under the working agreement,
that employees sign with the COM
pany, this petition may be taken
to President Robert I. Todd Tues
day. Petitions to Tretton must be
received on the second and fourth
Tuesdays of the month and to the
president, on the third Tuesday.
Should Todd refuse to consider
the proposal. appeal will be taken
to the public service commission
within ten days." as the contract
provides.

the arbitration case, announced to-
day that this new petition will go
all the way through"
Signers with Green are Chester
Burris, Sylvester Spencer, Chris
Crennepohl, and Joseph Tusler.
They returned to company employ
and signed the working agreement
after going on strike last summer,
Tretton said.
Employed as car operators on the
extra board" that is, substitute
operators without regular run as
signments, they receive 40 cents an
hour, under the commission decision.
Green is an employee of many years.
but lost his seniority rights in the
strike.
The present pay scale ranges from
40 cents to As cents an hour, in
creasing cent a year for five years.
Before the commission decision the
minimum was 81 cents and the
maximum AZ cents. In each case
one-man car and bus operators get
5 cents an hour extra.
In this petition the following scale
is asked:
Employees OF six months or less
service, so cents an hour.
Employees OF from six to twelve
months service, 60 cents.
Employees of more than twelve
months service, IS cents.
One-man car Or bus operators, Z
cents an hour over the above scale.

advanced scale, but fourteen days
ago, at an estimated increase of
more than 100000 annually. I do
not feel that this new petition is
justified" Tretton asserted. at

gives the whole inner-system a real
cleansing and stimulates the liver
and kidneys, so that the poisons,
which have accumulated in the body
for a long time, are eliminated in a

desire for food to renourish the

have experienced a new joy in living
after they found Konjola. This is
the most talked-of medicine in the
State of Indiana, and it is all due to
a superior form OF merit, unheard-
OF in any other remedy.
Just few days ago, the following
signed statement was received from
Mrs. Carrie Lockhart, 857 S. Rybolt

Man, who is meeting the public daily
at Hooks drug store, Illinois and

y "Since my stomach trouble is gone
Z enjoy good health again" said
Mrs. Lockhart, land my skin has
cleared up, and the old, worn ap-
pearance has gone from my face.
indigestion was Z my greatest
trouble. Gas would form in my
stomach and I became SO terribly
bloated that could hardly sreathe.
My throat was raw and fitated,
owing to undigested fooc5 which
raised into my throat. Nearly every
thing I ate would sour and ferment,
SO my food did me no good at all.
MY blood was in Dad condition, and
this caused my skin to break cut.
ST began taking Konjola, and this
medicine game me wonderful relief
from the stomach trouble, and
never bloat up with gas or have in
digestion pains like I used to. My
appetite is increased and my skin
is cleared up. This Konjola has
changed my whole physical con-
dition, so that my digestion is better
shan it has been in years, and I
seem to feel good all the time. I am
indorsing this medicine to help
others who are suffering"

Phelan and Boilermaker Squad
Leave for Clash With Harvard
Purdue Will Battle Crimson, Minus Services of Wilcox;
Team Looks Stronger Than Last Year.

man of Manual and Herb Galletch,
Chicago boy. Hickman is big and
strong and Gelletch, not so big, is
fast and shifty. Urevig, weighing
2O2; Sleight, 1872, and Cameron, 1877,
are good reserves.
The guards are the best we have
seen in some time. Gus Hook of
Indianapolis and George Prenctice
are pair of ideal men for the Phe-
Ian system. Strong reserve strength
is seen in Coleman, Grecius and
Boots.
Harvey Olsen looms the best of the
pivot men. Olsen has q year OF
varsity experience and looks fine.
His edge over Dreyer is his speed.
Bob Wilson, local product, ap-
pears the best bet at quarter, but
has been incapacitated by injuries
which have slowed him up. Roger
Speidel is the best reserve. Quarter
backs are so scarce Phelan pondered
on the question of making Glenn
Harmeson, last edition of the ia
nous Harmesons of indianapolis, a
signal caller, the position Glennheld
at Manual.
Glenn, however, looms as likely
eleventh hour man to step into Will
coxs shoes. He can pass and run,
but is handicapped by inexperience.
Leichtle, Caraway, Guthrie and
Miller are the other halves. Cara
way is conner and Leichtle capable.
Guthrie is dark horse. There has
been secret practice at Purdue this
fall because Phelan has plays and
players he wished to cover. The first
surprise is scheduled at Cambridge
Saturday.
Koransky Is Strong
To round out the back field,
KoranSky looms better than last
year. If he lasts, Purdue's strength
lasts. Miller can step in as a re-
serve. Wilson is slated to do the
punting in Wilcox's absence.
Harvard with it's squad of twenty
nine coaches is said to have strong
lateral pass attack, one that Pur-
due has been coached to stop.
Phelan has as assistants Nal Ed
wards, former Notre Dame star, who
is coaching the ends, and Noble
Kiser, another Notre Dame man,
who is tutoring the tackles, guards
and centers.

three members of his cast left here
: at noon today headed for Cam
!. bridge, Mass, where the Boiler
makers are to battle the Crimson
. eleven of Harvard Saturday in the
leading weekend gridiron drama.
60 All was not glory as the big Pur-
due band, entire student body and
hundreds of townspeople paraded to
the depot to watch the special train
pull out. Capt. Chester (Cotton
Wilcox, star back of Phelan's ma
chine, hobbled to the station on
crutches, the result of Clipped
= bone in his ankle received in the
De PAW contest last Saturday.
Back behind the look of discour-
agement and nervousness on Pine
.lan's face one could see a smile
of determination, a desire to sur
prise the grid world and upset the
East despite the loss of his captain
and stellar ball toter.
Squd Looks Better
- A year ago, when Phelan's eleven
went East to play the Navy he had
a fair aggregation, one that held
the Middies to 1913 score. When
Jimmy paraded his cohorts before
the writer Wednesday they ap-
peared, except for Wilcox's position,
fully 80 to 40 Fer cent stronger
than the 1926 eleven.
% At the wings are Leon Mutton and
Mackey both juniors. Mutton, for
mer Manual boy, playing his second
year on the varsity, displays ter
rifle speed and great pass-receiving
ability. In addition there are Woer-
ener, another Manual lad; Stillwell
of Shortridge and Sindelar, other
good pass snaggers.
At the tackle posts are Ed Flick
