INTERESTING SIDELTGHTS on
POINTS IN HICKMAN TRIAL

long degrees of Is letters. whose re-
plies to the hypothetical question
are that Hickman is insane. And
the prosecution offers an equal mum.
Der Of alienists, of equal prominence
answering the same Hypothetical
question with a positive declaration
that Hickman is sane.
1t is quite obvious that if the
one group of alienists do not brand
their adversaries perjurers they def
initely accuse the opponents of rad
ically deviating from the truth
Suggestion Was Good
This is what is known as "ex-
pert' opinion. How such testimony
tends to assist o jury of 2 laymen
or offer any enlightenment on the
rendition of a proper verdict is diff
fcult to conceive. In fact it scents
to defeat the function of science.
There was merit in the suggestion
of Defense Counsel Walsh that the
court exercise it's discretion by ap-
pointing several disinterested alien
lists to reach an opinion on Hick-
mans mental disorder.
Such assistance would commend
itself to jury and the public at
large. It certainly would be more
enlightening for the jury, if Eek
pert opinions are ever enlighten-
ing although I doubt seriously
whether it is possible for several
alienists to reach the same conclu-
sions.
There is one point that carries
conclusive conviction to the jury,
and thar is that the science of psy-
chiatrv is in i's speculative stages,
Judging from the fact that num-
Der of alienists form one opinion on
set of facts, because they are re-
tanned by the defense, and another
group of alienists reach a contradic-
tory oninion based on the same
facts. because they testify for the

EDISON TO BE-
HONORED WITH
MOVIE PROGRAM

A coastwise movement to pay
tribute to the genius of Thomas A.
Edison, the "father of the motion
picture industry" will be sponsor
ed by West Coast Theaters, Inc,
Harold b. Franklin, president, an
nounces.
The week starting Feb. 10 has
been set aside during which, in ev-
cry West Coast theater from the
Mexican border to the Canadian
border, special programs will be ar
ranged in honor of the man whose
name will go down in history as
the greatest inventor of all times.
An elaborate campaign to further
Thomas A. Edison program has
been prepared in the home office
of West Coast Theaters, which will
include coast-wise tieups with pow
er companies and industrial organ
izations, the growth of which were
dependant largely upon early Edi-
son inventions.
Franklin, a personal friend of
Edison, has obtained from the
" Wizard of West Orange a spe-
cial statement to the public. which
will be broadcast from the screens
of all West Coast theaters.
One of the features of the Thomas
A. Edison program will be the show
ing of cold time movies.' Motion
picture reels made more than a
score of years ago will be thrown
upon the screen with the original
atmosphere and setting.
The Thomas A. Edison program is
destined to become one of the most
outstanding and successful events
of its kind ever staged. High pub
lie officials on the coast who have
been told about it are enthused at
the prospect in joining a movement
that will enable the public at large
to show its appreciation to the man
who is being honored. The Valley
theater will have its cold Time
movie program for three days, start
ing Sunday, Feb. -.

Isolation of persons who have
given no more exhibition Of

not enough. it is felt. In line

are coming more and more to

He has established his Office in

Phoenix. Ariz. !, April-Young.
sters from practically every
grammar. school in Arizona will
compete in their, own track and
field meet at the third annual
Greenway Field Day here on
April IA, it was announced last
night. More than thousand
grammar school boys and girls
participated in the athletic events
and may pole drill at the states
greatest athletic meet last year.
Special events have been ar
ranged for the grammar school
contestants who are expected to
come from all sections of Ari,
zona. This years program, which
will have several outstanding
events and athletes. will be held
in the Phoenix, High School
Stadium. -. ..sa-
. The grammar schools will be
limited to two entrants in, each
event, according. TO- +. D. brady
and Henry Welt, who are max
ing all arrangements for the
meet. Students who have not
reached their seventeenth birth
day are eligible to compete.
There will be six classes OF
com petition for the boys, and
five for the girls. according to
the program that is being mail
ed out to the schools. The boys
classification begins with a spe
cial class, limited to students
who have passed their sixteenth
birthday but have not reached
their seventeenth birthday, and
includes classes A. B, G. D, and
E. The girls classification does
not include a special class.
Events for boys range from
the 100-yard dash, running high
jump, running broad jump. 400
yard relay, and eight pound
shot, down to the 60 and 50.yard
dashes, and 200-yard and short
or relays.
The border vidette., 1928-04-07

The girls events range from
65-yard dash and 260-yard relay
to much shorter dashes and re.
lays for the lower classes. A
soccer ball kick for distance and
q basketball throw for distance
are also included in the girls
events.
The classification of the boys
and girls is rather an intricate
affair and is worked out by the
officials in this manner: Multiply
the age of the student by four,
add the height in inches, and
add one half the weight. The
total of these figures will then
determine what class the student
belongs in.

FLOORE NAMED
FAIR MANAGER
Well Known Director
Of Troup to Run
Exposition

HARLINGEN, June 15.-In keeping
with the efforts of the directors Of
the Valley Mid-winter Fair asso-
citation to make the coming fair the
largest and most successful ever held,
announcement has been made that
the association has secured the full
time services of John T. Floore to
manage the event.
Floore has been the secretary of
commerce at Troup. Texas, where he
established an outstanding record in
the handling of the county fair and
other municipal projects for the past
four years and comes TO the Valley
highly recommended. He has be-
come known throughout the state for
his activities along this lire, il is
stated.
This Is the first time that a full.
time permanent managership has
been used by the directors and much
improvement 10 expected. The po-
sition has been hampered heretofore
by outside interests and the fair is
expected to round into better con-
tinuity and unity under the guidance
OF an experienced manager.
X. c. Donovan, who has established
~ IcPutalion dloHk tneee mes at GoH-
gales, Texas, was offered the posi-
tion but pressure brought to bear
on him to retain his old post caused
him to decline the Valley offer.
A meeting of the directors of the
association has been called for $3.50
p. m, Monday at the fair grounds in
Harrington to discuss the coming fair
and some definite moves are expect
ed, according 10 Sam Bolts, president
Of the body.
Matters expected TO come up for
discussion include q change from a T.
day to a 5-day fair and perhaps q
change in the dates. Whereas the
meeting has begun around Thanks
giving before, action to move the
dates so that the meet will come to
a close about Thanksgiving is ex-
pected.
A decided boost was given the fair
BY the new auditorium financed by
the city of Harlingen. The November
session -ill be the first time the
association has utilized the struc-
ture. II is expected 90 fill a need at
the previous affairs, according to
officers.
