BULLF|GHTER GETS
PERMIT FOR ENTRY
Sidney Franklin Can Bring
Animals in U. s., but New
ark Exhibition Barred.

Toreador Sidney Franklin of Brook
Ign, N. Y, can import six wild Mexican
bulls into his native United States from
Mexico City, Mexico, he learned in
Washington yesterday.
But the Brooklyn boy who made good
In Spain can't fight them or even Of
fend them in Newark, N. j., he must
have learned in Newark today.
Any bullhght In Newark is just an
other controversy, some one up there
has ruled. Franklin waved the red flag
when he announced in the papers that
the spectacle would be held November
80, without the use Of weapons and for
the benefit Of the unemployed.
VIII Deny Permit.
SO many professors charged into the
fray that William j. Egan, Newark's d.
rector Of public safety, announced he
would issue no permit for the event.
Yesterday the bullhghter called on
DR.. John R. Mohler, chief Of the Bu-
reau of Animal Industry, Department
of Agriculture, and requested q permit
to import bulls for the event. His re-
quest was granted.
Franklin, who must have, had some
idea at the time that Newark wasn't a
good town for the exhibition. said he
wanted three Of the animals for the
New Jersey event and the other three
for q similar affair which he was pro-
noting in Cleveland, Ohio.
Fans who follow bullfighting In the
United States predicted a warm prelim-
mary In the Ohio city.
Says Exhibition Humane.
Franklin insisted, however, that his
exhibitions would be humane and in
furious only to the bulls temper.
They're ill-tempered bruteS, anyhow, he
said, and nothing makes them madden
than to be driven into q slaughter pen.
Franklin told DR.. Mohler he proposed
TO bait the animals and dodge them as
they charged him. He already has pur-
chased the six high-spirited, nervous
and Swift-mOving animals bred and
raised for the arena on a farm near
Mexico City.
Press dispatches from Newark today
said Egan gave State law prohibiting
the batting Of animals as the basis OF
his refusal to issue the permit. He also
pointed out that Franklin might be
forced to kill a bull to save his own
skin-that or else fail to save his own
skin.
Eyes" remarked fan, maybe he'll
need it In Cleveland"

There was one less star in Notre

drawn from school upon request be-
cause he married and then started

Fritz Crisler's eleven aims to ssure
itself Of fourth place in the final Big
Ten standings.
The morale of the Gopher outfit
bucked up so we'll in the second half
charge on Michigan that, even after
a defeat. it appears to be a better or
ganization mentally than before the
affair with the Wolverines.
The team has had three days of
drill on the home field before entrain-
ing for Madison, Wis, Thursday
night.
While regulars. or most Of them,
have drawn the favor of Coach Girls
Ter to the extent of simple physical
work in practice. the Gopher mentor
has given the reserves hard work. He
scrimmaged them Monday as an
opener to the campaigns last week.
Jack Wheeler's touchdown chase
for Michigan. however. apparently
forced q development in the Gopher
drill calculated to make the Maroon
and Gold gridders more effective in
open field tackling. A hardy session
in covering punts Monday constituted
a major part of the days work and
the same may be due for today.
In the meantime, Crisler hopes foi
the recovery of Bill Brownell. a lead.
ing blocker and tackler of the squad
whose ankle injury took him from the
