OFFICIALS
ASSERT RULES
TOO COMPLEX
Leading Lights of Game
Favor Changes to Sim
phfy Conditions.
BY FRANK GETTY
Omitted Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-Football
officials who suffered so much abuse
during the 1927 season gathered to-
) day at the Hotel Astor to speak on
their own behalf.
There was time when the men
in white knickers who officiated at
the leading gridiron games were
paid scanty attention by the parti-
san throngs gathered on respective
sides of the chalk-lined playing
field. AS&& ~
This year, however, changes in
the playing rules brought about an
unprecedented number of situations
in which the rulings of the off
cials had most important bearing
upon the result of the game.
There was the case of the Notre
Dame Southern California intersec-
tional game, for instance, in which
the decision of an umpire regarding
tumble behind the Irish goal line
decided the contest in favor of the
South Bend eleven and led to pro-
tests from the Trojans which have
not yet died away.
Members of the football officials
association who opened their annual
session here today blamed the com
J plications of the new rules for theri
difficulties.
Football, from n game once de-
cided obviously upon the merits of
the respective contestants, has come
to be a game where delicate de
cision may be left up to some per
picked official.

-SANDE SEEKING
CHANCE TO RIDE
FRENCH TRACKS
Premier Jockey, Barred
Here, Forced to Seek
Work In Europe.
By FRANK GETTY
United Press Sports Editor

Earl Sande, now in France, is at
tempting to arrange some riding en-
gagements in that country and Eng
land for the period of his disbar-
ment from the American turf.
81 want to ride in the EPSON
Derby and the Paris Grand Prix be-
fore / IN through" Sande said re-
Gently.
If Earl is successful in obtaining
European engagements, he will com
pete once more against Steve Dono-
hue, most famous and successful of
English jockeys of the present day,
although one who now feels the
call of years and has a son kicking
home winners alongside of him.
A duel between two fine jockeys
is sometimes quite as thrilling as
one between two fine horses.
Sande, when at his best, rode
just about as well as any jock liv-
ing. He might find Continental
conditions not altogether to his
liking, although he is fascinated
by the scenery surrounding French
and English tracks.
~ IN afraid l never could win
for looking at the scenery as |
rode along" said Earl. "These
French courses are the finest I've
ever seen. I didn't imagine such
beauty was built for racing.''
Rating Sande as about the best
rider of the decade brings in a
claim from far-away Sydney, where
Australians believe they have the
world IS most remarkable jockey in
Bobby Lewis.
Remarkable certainly is the word,
for Bobby is 40 years old, and re-
Gently kicked home Trivalve, a no.
toriouslv lazy colt, to win the Sgd
ney and Victorian derbies and the
Melbourne Cup, all within a month.
Victory in these three races net
ted Trivalve's owner $4,000 but
the thrill was nothing new to Bob
by Lewis. He has been riding con-
stantly on Australian tracks for 38
years.
Lewis, in that time, has made
plenty of money out of racing and
is rated as millionaire. The lure
of the track is too strong for him
to retire and enjoy rest.
No Australian rider puts up a
more stirring finish than Lewis, for
all his years. His recent perform
ances in getting the shirking Triv-
alive home in the big handicaps
were masterpieces of stretch riding.
81 know this horse,' said Bobby.
~ rode his father, Cyklon, his
mother, Trey, and his grandmother,
Teppo.
Cyklon was a son of Spearmint,
and a grandson of Carbine, the
greatest horse ever raced in Aus
tralia. Carbine won the Melbourne
Cup in 1890, year after Lewis
started riding.
Bobby has ridden the winners of
four Melbourne Cups, eight Victor
ian Derbies and seven Sydney Der
bies.

DR.. w. D. ROY TO At
TEND DENTISTS CON
VENTION AT BILLINGS

DR.. w. D. Roy, prominent Plenty
wood dentist is leaving Tuesday,
March 22nd, to attend the clinics of
the Montana State Dental Associa-
tion which will be held at Billings.
He expects to return March 29th to
his regular work.
"The work of the State Dental AS
sociation is of great value to prac-
ticing dentists in that through them
one can learn of the best way of
treating ordinary faults in the teeth,
and the diagnosis and treatment of
special cases is given much import
ance," stated DR.. Roy in an inter
view with a News reporter. "This
year there are to be specialists from
all over the United States at the elm
les, two fine ones from Minneapolis
and one from Seattle. The advant-
ages to be gained from such gather
ings cannot be overestimated, and
the results accruing from them in the
better methods of dental care to the
patients are something that no up-to-
date dentist can overlook. Last year
the clinics were held at Helena, next
year they may be at Great Falls
Each session finds the gatherings
larger and better, represented by the
finest and most grounded specialists
to be had, and the educational and
practical value of them grows from
year to year."

ing and that the man who put
things over was Harry Daugherty.
Supposing Sinclair should call
Daugherty and put that trade agree
ment with the Soviet government
through so that Sinclair could COM
mercially develop his Russian oil con-
cessions, unused the Standard Oil
banker. This thought was of gall
and wormwood to him as he set out
to find a senator who would attack
the members of the cabinet he want
ed "to get' while Walsh was trying
to take the Teapot Dome away from
Doheny. Some say he, sought out
Col. House, whose close connections
with the Coudray oil interests, made
him an enemy of Sinclair's oil in
vasiOn of Europe and whose knowl-
edge of politics and politicians gain
ed while acting as an agent of the
British foreign office, made him IA
mlllar with senator's so that he knew
whom to recommend for the job Van
derlip wanted put across.
1t is said House recommended
Wheeler and advised that he be ap-
preached through Walsh. Of course
Vanderlip could use his Standard Oil
connections to induce the bosses of
the A. C. M. to tell Wheeler how to
move but the visit to Col. House
seems plausible for the following
reasons.
Col. House HypnOtizes Wheeler
Col. House, skillful lobbyist that he
is, made it point to meet all new
senators. When Wheeler made his
first trip to Washington he was in
veigled into the net of the Colonel.
The man, whom a trick of fate had
placed in the high office of U. S.
Senator, felt the glamor of the i'm
mediate presence of the friend of
Wilson and the consort of Kings and

Last year the Receiver sold the
building formerly owned by the bank
to Carl Bull, of the Farmers & Mer-
chants Bank of Plentywood, for a
sum approximating $1,000. This
money was deposited but no dividends
were declared. The Bank of Sheridan
County was known as a Beiseker
Bank, in which the county lost sew
eral thousands of dollars when it
closed.
DepOsitOrs Wanted Dividends
For nearly year past the depOsi-
tors of the defunct bank have been
considering methods of forcing the
receiver to declare a dividend. Sew
eral of them contemplated petitioning
the court to sell off the assets of the
bank at public auction and wind up
the receiverShip. When a law was
passed in the last session of the leg
islature giving the Superintendent Of
Banks the power to remove and ap-
point receivers, several depositors
were figuring on calling a meeting
to decide on some concerted action.
A story to this effect was carried In
the last issue of the Producers News.

Judges Latitude to
Punish for CONTEMPT

Contempt of court does not merely
mean that you treat the court itself or
the dispensers Of justice In sneering
or contemptuous manner.
A laugh, except at the judges time
worn jests. will bring the severe re-
buke, IF you are not careful, sir, ]
will commit you for contempt of
court" You also offend by publicly
disputing the learning or authority of
the judge, or by ostentatiously read
ing newspaper In his presence.
To avoid contempt and to obtain a
hearing, an English lawyer must not
only appear In court In a horsehair
wig, gown, and bands; he must also
wear suit of sober color, black for
preference. In chambers, however, q
judge cannot summarily commit per-
son for contempt; and 1t is not essen
tial for counsel to appear In robes.
as In court.
The late Sir James Bacon, while sit
ting in court, would never listen to a
counsel wearing q white waistcOat, de-
spite the fact he himself habitually
wore one while sitting as vacation
judge.
1t is possible to commit contempt
out of court as well as In it. To OBJ
struct a witness on his way to give
evidence, to threaten him if he does
give evidence, or to destroy any letter
or document after the issue of the writ
are serious forms Of contempt. 1t is
not, however, contempt merely to tear
up writ or subpoena in the presence
of an officer of the court.
At the present time the penalty for
most contempts is costs. To purge his
contempt, the guilty party has usually
to pay all the costs of a motion to COM

People are learning to understand
the value of liver in the diet as a
source of vitamins and minerals, as
well as of protein. In addition to
plain fried liver, or liver and onions,
there are numerous appetizing ways
of cooking liver. Equal parts of
ground ham and cooked liver seas
oned with cream and with parsley
chopped and served on toast make a
good dish. Liver may also be cooked
in casserole with mushrooms or
other vegetables. Chopped cooked
liver is excellent for stuffing onions
or other baked vegetables.
