of the business. Louis Nahin, bust
ness manager, handles the business
part.
"I leave it in their hands and i
matter of player policy, expendi-
lures for new players, and other
things come up we three have a
conference and decide what is best"
In explaining her 'triumvirate
control" of the club Miss Killilea
said: "I trust Jacks judgment
about ball players. No woman can
know a ball player as well as a man
for they don't play the game. I
might have my ideas when a pitcher
is cracking, but Jack would know
better than l."
She Loves Sports
Her schooling in journalism at
the University of Wisconsin prior to
her fathers death, abetted by her
fathers occupation. has given Miss
Killilea her keen love for sports.
"Why I've even covered a prize
fight while attending Journalistic
school," she said,
But her sudden lift into fame
through her ownership of the club
has made her wary of intervieWers.

manage now"
Increase in feminine interest in
baseball has been noticeable, Miss
Killilea said.
Talked at Bridge
"At bridge parties they ask me
about such and such player and
what I think Of So-and-So. The

Miss Killiles said she planned to

Oil Operator Held
as Slayer of Rich
RiUaIAfer Party
ManSIaughter Is Charged
and Bail Set at $4,000;
Suspect Denies He Hit
Cleveland Man.

En- Tuted Pr6ae
NEW YORK, April 16.-Samuel E.
Bell, Baltimore oil operator, was
held in $4,000 bail today on a
charge Of manslaughter in connec-
ton with the death of Arthur Nor
gan Smith, wealthy Cleveland busi-
ness man.
Smith died Friday after he had
attended a fashionable party at the
home Of Mrs. Rboert w. Schuette on
Park avenue.
Witnesses testified that Smith
drank considerably at the party and
that he descended in the elevator
with Bell and Mrs. Robert L. Brown,
a society leader Of Lexington, KY.
Outside the hotel, Smith attempted
to enter the taXicab Of Mrs. Brown
and Bell and the latter finally
showed him aside.
Smith was arrested for drunken
ness, but the following day was re-
leased because he was i'll. He died
a few hours later. An examination
showed he had fractured skull and
a taXicab driver said that when Bell
showed him, Smith fell against the
curbing.
Yesterday Bell sobbed the story
Of the party and the events that
followed, expressing over and over
the fear that Smiths death would
ruin his own career as an oil pro-
ducer.
Just Pushed Him
He was drunk" Bell said. 81 just
pushed him away The next day
I heard he was dead. I would die
if I could bring him back.
Mrs. Brown and 1 had dinner
together at the Plaza hotel and she
decided that she wanted to go on to
Mrs. Schuette's. When we arrived,
MI. Smith, Mrs. Schuette, and her
other guests Just had finished din
ner. Everybody seemed to be feel
ing Jolly"
Bell admitted taking several
drinks and said Smith was in
toxicated before the party broke up.
Smith followed Mrs. Brown and
himself to the street after the party,
Bell said, and insisted on eScorting
Mrs. Brown to her hotel.
He caught me by the collar as
I started to enter the cab" Bell de-
clared. He pulled me back and
said he was going to take Mrs.
Brown home. 1 started to get into
the cab and I pushed him to one
side.
Praises Mrs. Brown
ErHe GRABBED me again and I
pushed him away. This tine he
seemed to stumble, but I did not
see him fall. In showing him,
touched only his shoulders. 1 am
positive I did not hit him."
Bell denied having any personal
interest in Mrs. Brown, other than
that of an acquaintance of long
standing.
"She is a woman Of the highest
integrity and one of the most Won
derful friends I ever had" he said.
My life will be ruined by all this
trouble and I don't know what to do
about it,
AT the Office of District Attorney
Joab Banton it was said that Mrs.
Brown told her story frankly, say
ing she did not see Bell strike Smith.
She said she was astonished to
learn of the Cleveland mans death.

ERRORS
ITO err is human, to forgive d.

ITO err is human, to forgive di-
vine."
How true of the human race is
the former, how false of the ma
jority of people is the latter.
Why must people hold it against
their fellowmen when they are af-
fected by an error made by a fell
low human being?
How much easier it would be to
assist that person and show him
in kindly manner where he
making his error, instead of hold
ing it against him. Holding a
mistake against him doesn't get
you anywhere and it certainly
doesn't help him to improve, but
rather makes a poor situation
worse if that is possible.
1T is impossible to get through
life without making some errors,
maybe not serious in some cases
but perhaps in others, jeopardising
thousands of lives.
When an error is brought to
your attention, don't try to argue
around it. It just can't be done
The error argues louder against
you than you are able to argue
against it.

GIRLS SPORTS

Last Friday evening the X. HI.
S. girls basketball team showed
Prosser how this acknowledgement
game should he played.
Quite a few people stated that
it was the fastest, peppiest girls
game they had seen for some time.
The Kennewick girls were right
"on their elbows" and every one
of them played for all they were
worth.
During the third quarter the
followers of the Orange and Black
drew some comprehensive breaths
as the girls in crimson reduced
Kennewick's lead to one point, but
the margin was once more increas-
ed to comfortable size during
the fourth quarter. At the end of
the game the score stood Is to 8
in favor of Kennewick.
The only substitution made was
during the fourth quarter, Dorothy
Bachman for Florence Norris at
center.
The next game will be between
Richland and Kennewick on Jam
uary 25.

Law ENFORCEMENT

THERE is a law in this state
which requires that all acct
dents where there is damage to
property or person he reported. In
most instances this means to the
nearest police station.
In cities, where the completely
of life necessitates the strict en-
forcement of such regulations
they are generally observed. How
ever, this is not the case in this
vicinity.
Accident after accident, many of
which consist merely of injury to
vehicle are not reported to To-
cal authorities. There is reason
behind all legislation and if an ac-
cident occurs the highways are icy
or because they are in a dangerous
condition, the police should have
an opportunity to keep such high
ways clear or to post them.
