FATHER FACES
SKELETON.
GRILLING

CAMDEN, N. j., Nov. 9 CU.S).
Allen Rogers, young widower,
was confronted last night by police
demands that he divulge more
freely the background of the
New Jersey child skeleton mystery.
Chief of Detectives Apgar, Of
Gloucester county, announced that
Rogers seems reluctant to give
up certain information. Apgar
thought this data might bring
about arrest of Mrs. Gladys Parks
Parker, authenticated model, suS-
pected of killing Rogers two
children.
Hinted at QuarreIs
At the same time police made
public a letter purporting to have
been written by Mrs. Baker, for
whom a nationwide search is
being made. The letter limited
OF Quarrels between Rogers and
Mrs. Baker over the little girl
and boy Rogers had entrusted to
her. In part, the letter read:
81 thought when / took the
children we had an understand
Ing. You told me you might
want to get married again and
no woman would want you with
six children. am going to
move and take the children far,
far away, where you won't see
them again."
Chief of Detectives Apgar said:
Rogers has limited at things
almost unmentiOnabIe, but he
will not fully unbOSOm himself.
"HiS idea in letting the wO-
man have the children, he tells
me, was that Mrs. Baker, q
relative Of his dead wife, pleaded
for the two youngest, saying
she loved children, but could
have none Of her own"
Believes Two Dead
A few days ago a skeleton of
Q child was found in a thicket
near National Park. Rogers i'm
mediately pronounced the bones
those Of his daughter, Dorothy, 4,
and expressed the belief his son,
Timothy, 2, also had been killed.
He said he had engaged a
private detective last September
10, to search for Mrs. Baker, a
first cousin of his dead wife.
Police inquiry led to issuing Of
Q warrant for Mrs. Baker, on
suspicion of murder"

pionship against Mickey Walker
here this month.
The stadium has signed both
fighters but the commission has re-
fused to sanction the bout because
it believes Walker should defend his
middleweight championship, or
guarantee that he has signed to de-
fend it, before fighting light
heavyweight.
Walker has not complied with the
boxing rule which provides that
chmpions defend their title every
six months.
Jack Kearns, Walkers manager,
spent most of Thursday afternoon
with the commission but no agree
ment was reached. Kearns eX-
planned that Walker had signed to
meet Ace Hldkins in Las Vegas,
New, July 4, in defense of the
middleweight title.
The commission countered with
demand that Walker post a for
felt guaranteeing that he will go
through with the Hudkins fight.
Kearns termed this demand "un-
reasonable" and left the meeting
while the commission conferred with
Promoter Paddy Harmon.
Harmon spent some time with
Kearns Thursday night after he had
talked with the commission and
it was believed an agreement will
be reached today.

SARASOTA, Fla, March 2.-This
was reporting day for the second
squad of Indians in the spring camp
of the A. A. champions down on the
west coast of Florida and no time
will be lost in putting the new
corners to work with the FASTENERS
who have been here since Monday.
Everybody must labor Sunday, as
we'll, orders to this effect having
been issued by Boss Bethel today.
The exhibition schedule calls for
the HooSiers to swing into action
next Friday against the Sarasota
town nine and the home athletes
are In shape as a result of having
played one game a week through
out The winter.
Tie following Indians were ex-
pected to don the "unies" for the
first time today: Outfielders Barn
hart and Koenecke and Infielders
Monahan, Connolly, German and
Metz.
Spencer Signs Up
Catcher Roy Spencer pulled in by
auto Friday and erased himself from
the holdout list by signing a con-
tract within two hours after arrival.
Herman Layne, one of the Tribe
stars of last year, may or may not
join his mates today. He wired for
transportation and doubtless was
surprised when he received a return
wire instead, telling him he first
would have to accept terms. He
can come on his own hook, however,
and be assured of train fare when
ever he signs.
The holdout list has been reduced
to three. Boone, Matthews and
Layne, with the first two named
likely to give the club officials much
trouble getting them in line.
Where's Ken Penner?
Whereabouts of pitcher Ken PEN
ner remains an unsolved mystery
