Drive Of Millers
Hits Rough Going
Minneapolis Now Fighting to
Retain Second Place Rather
Than the Top Position
BY WILLIAM A. WEEKES

Chicago. June 26.-P,-Thc drive
OF Mike Kelley, Minneapolis pilot. to
gain his sixth American Association
championship. appears to have struck
rough going during the last two
weeks.
Until recently the scramble was a
Kansas City, minneapolis affair, with
st. Paul a fair third place team. But
today Minneapolis was three and one
half games behind the hustling Blues.
and only two games in front Of Bub-
blcs Hargravc'S Saints. The Millers
earlier i'll the campaign topped st.
Paul by as many as eight games.
Minneapolis dropped another game
rcarward yesterday by taking a 5 to 4
beating from indianapolis while Kan
a City was trimming Columbus 9
to 5.
Although Fcrd Schupp received
wrctched support from his mates, he
managed to pitch the Indians to a
decision. George Dumont permitted
but seven hits. the same number OBJ
tanned by the Millers off Schupp, but
they we're punched in better style.
Columbus outhit Kansas City by
10 to 3. but collected enough of its
blows to manufacture four runs in the
ninth. Kuehl contributed two home
runs to the Blue attack. The Sena-
tors benefited by wildness on the part
OF Thomas who walked five men in
less than five innings.
Other clubs Of the circuit had a day
of leisure.

generation Of Liquor Law
violator Under Law

North Dakota'S version of the New
York state Baurnes law will be tested
In Burleigh county district court at
I o'clock this afternoon.
The North Dakota law, adopted in
1927, provides that q defendant who
has been convicted of three felonies
may be given q penitentiary sentence
doubling the maximum sentence for
the crime. The North Dakota law Is
different from the New York law.
however, In that 1t does not apply to
felonies made so by statute and not
involving moral turpitudc.
A writ of habeas corpus will be pre-.
sented to the court before Judge r. g.
Mcfarland. jamestown. by Scott
Cameron, Bismarck attorney, request
Ing that state officials allow John
Malusky, Cass county, his freedom.
Malusky Sunday completed a term OF
one year and a half In the state PEN
itcntiary OH q conviction of engaging
IN the liquor traffic as a second Of
tense. Before his last term, he had
served sentences for two felonies
which had not resulted from liquor
law violations. He received his last
sentence in Cass county from Judge
A. T. Cole. Fargo.
Malusky a taken back to Fargo
April % when it was learned that he
had been convicted of three felonies
and his year and one half sentence
was extended to four years, o. twice
the maximum sentence on a convic-
ton Of engaging in the liquor traffic
as a second offense.
Cameron claims that the North Da-
kota habitual criminal law does not
include engaging In the liquor traffic
as a second offense for one of the
three felonies.
1t Is not known who will appear for
the state when the writ is presented.
although John c. Pollock, Cass county
states attorney. may make his APP
pearance. Malusky Is held at the
state penitentiary.
A motion that all grand jury in
dictments against Eugene Merritt
Walla be dismissed also will be made
before Judge Mcfarland by Charles
L. Crum. Bismarck attorney Defend
ing Walla. Walla was indicted last
December on charges of cmbezzlc-
ment, grand larceny, and forgery. The
embezzlement count against him was
dismissed here in May by Judge Nc
Farland. Crum will argue that the
indictments were drawn faulty and
that his client has not been given q
speedy trial.

1T stands to reason that q deistic

I'VE r conscious that not all

good and sincere Christians in every

adores as the supreme being is not
