 The case of John Restock of Dem. Ing avenue who was arrested May 3l by Constable Raymond Halleran on the charge of using illegal markers, was before Judge E. Stanley Weiles in town court last night. His. attor- ney was Benjamin Tonkonow Of Nsriden.
 Constable Halleran testifisd that he was driving along Demin9 ave- nue and a roadster was stalled on the highway. Rostocki and his sister Caroline were doing their best 10 get the car started. I When asked for his registration Rostockt replied that his mother had 1t at the house. At the motor vehi- cle department the constable learned that the markers had been issued for large coach and rot for . road ster.
 Grand Juror Harold Lucas then stated that the state had proved that the car was being used with illegal markers and stated that only . few months ago Jolln Rostocki had been in court and fned for . similar of- fense and that any man again vio- lating the motor vehicle lav : shc., Id ! be severely dealt with and asked for g fine of tl00 and costs.
 Attorney Tonkonow said there was q bitter feeling between the officer ana the k0stocki family. After reviewing the evidence, Judge Welles found Rostocki guilty and hned him $50 and costs. Attorney Tonkonow appealed the case to the superior court and bonds were fixed at t200. which were fur nished by Mrs. Mary Roulard. sister of Rostccki.

Northeastern Team Hopes to Halt Notg Dame Victory Marc/
Harmon Post
Still Vacant
Dempsey Rumor Denied by
Stadium Official.

CHICAGO, H., Nov. 21.-The
executive committee of the Chicago
Stadium Corporation today still
was in doubt as to who it will name
as a successor to Paddy Harmon,
deposed president md prom ter.
Harmon was ousted Tuesday and
several names have been mentioned
in connection with the appoint
ment of his successor, but so far
there has been a definite trend
toward no one.
First came the rumOr that Jack
Dempsey might succeed Harmon,
but this was denied by Sidney
Strotz, secretary-treasurer. Demp-
sey was out of town, but his secre-
tary, Leonard Sacks, said Jack was
not seeking the job.
Others mentioned included James
Norris, who repeatedly owns some
100000 worth Of stock. and John
Ringing, the circus man. g.
However, it would not be con-
sidered surprising If none of these
is named president.
Interrningled with the Harmon
successorship talk was a rumor
that the Illinois boxing commission
was investigating the stadium re-
garding tickets to recent shows.

Big Topic on Eastern Front
Yale Star Probably viii Perform Only in Emergency,
Coach Says, as Harvard Clash NearS.

his teams traditional battle with
Harvard, at Cambridge Saturday,
overshadows interest in the game
itself
Yale officials have denied that
Booths injury consists of a broken
blood vessel in his leg, declaring the
injury is charley horse or torn
muscle. The injury is said to be
comparatively slight, but Coach Nal
Stevens announced that Booth
may not play during the Harvard
game"
Stevens intimated that Booth
might be available for a drop-kick-
ing or forward passing emergency
but made it clear that he can not
be relied upon for regular perform
ance.
Even if Booth Is not able to play
the game will attract a capacity
crowd because of the long standing
rivalry between the two schools.
But no printed story regarding the
game and no discussion of the con-
test is completed without emphasis
on the possibility of Booths partici-
patton.

pected to develop into close affair
