STOCKTON'S CREW
TRIMS SLEEPY EYE
Fast Game Last Friday Night
Gives Locals Ninth Win
by 34-16 Count

Playing their best home game of
the season, Stockton's Cardinals
trounced the Sleepy Eye High School
team by "a to 16 count at the Lin
coin School gymnasium last Friday
night to make nine straight wins.
The Sleepy Eye team, apparently re-
vived after suffering several defeats
this season, gave Morgan its worst
defeat by running up AZ points to l
lone free throw for Morgan, the week
previous. Although the game here
was expected to be closely fought, the
visitors at no time had a chance for
victory.
The first quarter ended with Red
wood getting four field goals and a
free throw for nine points, while
Sleepy Eye was held to a free throw.
The second period, the fastest of the
game, saw Peterson, 1ashy forward,
at his best. He made several baskets,
and played heady game at all times.
The count at the ten minute rest
period was "a to 5. The third quarter
ended 80 to 8, while in the last period
both teams slowed down from the ter
rife pace that had been set.
Peterson again led the scorers with
6 field goals and free throw. Cap
tain Worsech and Johnson WED hon
ors with three field goals each. Finn
got two field goals, Laidlaw l of each
and Corbett 1 field goal.
Every man on the team played a

VETERANS MUST ACT
BEFORE MAY g
Court Action To Secure Dis
ability Rights Is Outlawed
After Date Given

War veterans must bring suit
against the Government on the War
Risk Insurance, by the 29th of May,
1929, for, after that date, court ac-
ton to secure disability rights will
not be allowed, according to ]. C.
Budik, commander of the American
Legion of Redwood Falls.
Congress in 1928, enacted law
which provides that no suit may be
brought against the government un-
der Section 19, of the World War
Veterans Act, 1924, Of War Risk In
surance, unless brought within six
years after the right accrued for
which claim is made, or within one
year from the date of the approval
of the amendatory act. This pro-
vides that claims for permanent total
disability or death benefits under War
Risk Insurance Contracts will outlaw
(unless action is started before May
20, 1929 where the claim arose more
than six years ago.
Any veteran who carried war risk
insurance while in the service, and
who believes that he became perma-
nently and totally disabled while his
insurance was in force may have a
claim against the government on
which a suit can be brought in spite
of the fact that the bureau has denied
his claim for insurance benefits.
AS an illustration: A veteran who
was discharged during the year 1919
who carried war risk insurance and
stopped paying his premiums imme-
diately on discharge. The veteran
may be given a varying compensa-
ton rating from date of discharge
but as matter of fact, he may be
able to prove that he became per-
manently and totally disabled while
his insurance was in force.
Permanent and total disability is
defined as follows: Total disability
is such disability that precludes the
veteran from following a substantial.
ly gainful occupation; this disability
is permanent when it is founded or
conditions which render it reasonably
certain that such disability will con-
tinue throughout life.
In such case the veteran may
sue the United States in federal court
on his insurance contract and have
a jury decide whether or not he be-

been tempted for a great while.

Unc' Billy. "Ah could Jest 60 over there

But common sense told Unc' Billy to
keep away from Farmer Browns hem
yard. Common sense told him that he
was safest over in the Green Forest.
But common sense and appetite very
often do not agree. When they dis
agree, common sense seldom wins. The
more Unc' Billy thought about
chicken dinner the more necessary 1t
seemed to him. He was being very
sorely tempted, was Unc' Billy. He
couldn't think Of anything but chicken,
and as he thought about it, he kept
moving along. moving along toward
the Old Orchard, along which the old
stone wall reached almost up to the
henhouse.
When he reached the edge Of the Old
Orchard Unc' Billy climbed UP on the
old stone wall and sat down. Common
sense told him that he had better 60

that he would be taking great chance
If he went any farther. He heard Flip
the Terrier barking over in Farmer
Browns dooryard. inc Billy knew all
about Bowser the Hound, but he didn't
know about Flip.
"Hello!" exclaimed Unc' Billy. "Ah

the old stone wall. He was being

to know that it would be best for him
to keen away from that henyard.

SENATE PASSES
LOYALTY OATH
TEACHERS BILL
Act Provides Instructors
Must Swear Support
of Constitution.

Daughters of the American Revo-
luton lobbyists were successful to-
day in securing senate approval for
their bill requiring all teachers in
Indiana public schools and faculty
members in institutions of higher
learning, supported by public funds,
to take an oath of allegiance.
The oath is for fealty to the con-
situations of the state and the
United States and upholoing all
laws.
The bill, already passed In the
house, was adopted by the senators
in a burst of patriotic fervor, based
on the fact that today is Wash
ington's birthday. It scored IS ayes
and only noes.
Speech making on the adoption of
the measure was not all of a Fourth
Of July type, however.
Scores Law
Senator G. Oliver Holmes, Gary,
termed the demand for such an &C.
ton part of the pseudo-patriotie
wave which found so much unsav-
DRY expression during the years
following the war.
Afterward he told reporters that
he referred to the rise of the Ku-
Klux Khan.
i'Why choose the teachers of In
DIANA" Holmes pleaded. ''Surely
their patriotism should not be
questioned. This Is a direct reflec-
ton on them. Yet but a. few years
ago 100000 young men, educated
in our schools, answered the call to
arms and faced the supreme test Of
love of country"
The senator pointed out that
there are laws on the statute books
that many intelligent persons do
not hold in great respect. He termed
the move a revival of the spirit that
halted the teaching of German, an
attempt at RECOMMENDATION of ideas
and bearing the marks of law
fostered by professional patrioteers.
Can't Enforce Patriotism
Senator Chester A. Perkins, South
Bend, talked against the bills pas
sage from the Democratic side. He
asserted that it is as impossible to
legislate patriotism as it is to Iegis-
late morals.
Other dissenters were Senators
Nejdl and Niblack.
Patriotic addresses for its pass
age were made by Senators Sims,
Harlan, Cravens, Rowley, CARROT
and Clancy.
They pointed out that other pub
lie officials take such oaths and the
teachers also should be made to
do so.
"Red Menace" Here
Senator Denver c. Harlan, Rich
mond, president pro tenn, asserted
that there is a E'red menace in IN
diana and he knew seven professors
whose ideas of patriotism were not
in line with his own.
After the bills passage, Mrs.
James B. Crankshaw, Ft. Wayne,
state regent of the D. A. r., mount
ed the rostrum and thanked the
senators for their action.
All that remains Is to have the
Governors signature to make all
Hoosier teachers swear.

CITY MANAGER
DRAFTS AWAIT
SENATE ACTION
NoII Measure in Hands of
Hostile Committee With
Repeal Bill.

Bound back to back with rubber
land, the Noll city manager Clarity
ing bill and the Sims city manager
repeal bill reposed in a senate desk
today while manager friends and
foes prepared for renewal of hos
tilities.
The Noll bill, grossly amended,
joined company with its mortal en-
envy in the desk of Senator John c.,
Sherwood. chairman Of the senate
committee ON cities and towns, by
assignment Thursday of Lieutenant
Governor Edgar D. Bush. It came
to the senate after passage by the
house.
Senator Sherwood's committee to-
day agreed to defer consideration of
the Noll bill until Senator Sumner
Clancy of Indianapolis, member Of
the committee, has prepared data
indicating what portions of the ex-
listing act are eliminated by the
clarifying measure which he opposes.
The committee saw no necessity for
further public hearing on the bill.
Foes Control Committee
Senators unfriendly to the Noll
BILL believed in the minority, were
chuckling over their apparent ad-
vantage in the cities and towns
committee, named by Lieutenant
Governor Bush at the opening of
the session.
Declaring he was taking care to
provide fair representation for OPP
posing factions in making appoint
ments to committees where highly
controversial legislation would be
considered, Bush named to the cities
and towns committee seven sera-
tors, six of whom, it now appears,
favor passage of the Sims bill for
outright repeal of the city manager
act. Whether the same division
will result on the Noll bill, leaving
Senator j. Clyde Hoffman as It's only
champion in the committee, re-
mains a matter Of speculation.
While both sides in the city man
ager controversy would welcome i'm
mediate decision by the supreme
court on constitutionality of the
1921 act, they recognized that such
a decision would not settle the
question. For the Noll bill aims.
among other things, to remedy por-
tons of the 1921 act which are re-
garded of doubtful constitution
atty. ~.
Refuses to Discuss Bill
Senator George w. Sims of Terre
Haute, author of the repeal bill,
persisted in refusals to discuss his
measure. It will not come from the
Sherwood committee until Sims
gives the word. Sims stayed away
from tooay's committee meeting.
Some believe Sims reluctance to
risk his bill upon the flood on a
divided, report reflects his misgiv-
ings as to, its chances for success.
Others regard the bill as a decoy to
hold the attention of city manager
forces while Sims plots a less OBJ
vious way of rendering the 1921 act
ineffective. A runor " in cir
culation that Sims will wait until
the last week Of the session and
try to jam his repeal bill through in
the closing moments when the
market is right for trades.
