Many Men Gather at Agnes Hotel In
Pine City Where Banquet Was
rendered.

About 80 men gathered at the Agnes
hotel in Pine City Wednesday night
and enjoyed banquet in honor of
Michael B. Hurley, county attorney
of Pine county, who is being consid-
cred for the appointment of United
States district Judge which office was
left vacant by the death of William
A. Cant of Duluth.
Many expressions were heard at
esteem in which Mr.. Hurley is held
by the many whom he has had deal
ings with in the past and whom he
rubs shoulders with in his daily
duties. Among those from out of the
county present at the banquet were
District Judge Alfred P. Stolberg of
Center City and Attorney j. d. Mark
ham of Rush City.
Speakers Laud Honor Guest.
DIR. F.. F. Callahan of Pokegama
Sanatorium, was postmaster and
called upon S. G. L. Roberts of Pine
City, County Commissioner Frank w.
Stepan of Willow River, and Judge
SEolberg.
Mr.. Roberts while extolling the vir-
tues of Mr.. Hurley, expressed regret
at losing a good man from official
circles in Pine county in the event
that he wins the appointment.
Judge Stolberg told of his contacts
with Mr.. Hurley in their relationship
of judge and attorney for the state
and stated that Mr.. Hurley had great
ability and is a deep student of law.
being at all times fair with his de-
fendents.
County Commissioner Stepan ex-
pressed appreciation of Mr.. Hurley's
good work for the county's welfare
and recommended him highly for the
judgeship to which his friends would
have him aspire.
The gathering passed resolution
recommending Mr.. Hurley to the
judgeship vacancy.
At the banquet letter was read
from Frank Reinhold of Hinckley,
wishing success and telegram from
S. B. Wennerberg of Center City, coun-
ty attorney of Chisago county, stated
his best wishes.
Mr.. Hurley responded in a few
words with much feeling and appre-
citation.
Appointment Soon.
The appointment to the United
States district judgeship to which
many are being urged will possibly be
made before March and with recon-
mendations coming from various bar
associations and other influential
sources it is apparent that Mr.. Hurley
has good chance of being thus hon
Ored.

A YOUNG INDIAN is
INJURED BY BULLET

Jean Dunkley, a 10 year old
Indian from the Indian village I'm
the eastern part Of Pine county
met with an accident while out
hunting rabbits Saturday after
noon. Young DunkIey, who was
carrying a % caliber rifle in some
accidental way discharged the
weapon while walking through
the brush with the result that
the bullet entered his body few
inches below the lower rib on
the right side and lodged near the
backbone.
The accident occurred at about
3 o'clock i'm the afternoon and q
Sandstone doctor was summoned.
He was taken to the Quarry City
where the bullet was removed and
where he is being treated. 1t is
thought that unless unforeseen
complications develop the victim
will soon recover. The accident
was a fortunate one in that no
bones were hit by the bullet nor
no vital organs were injured.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

Among the international news fea-
lures of the last few days the appoint
ment of Adolf Hitler as chancellor
of Germany easily is The most sensa-
tional. Shocking as it is to a good
many members of the family of ma
tions it is politically justified since
his fascist party, the National So
cialists, is the strongest of all the
parties in the German parliament.
Last week ended, and this week be-
gan, with a series of interesting
events.
First came from Berlin the an
nouncement that the government of
Chancellor Kurt Won Schleicher had
resigned because President Won Hin
denburg would not issue to him a
decree giving him the right to dis
solve parliament; Won Schliecher knew
that it would be impossible for him
to avert a vote of no confidence; he
also realized that to accomplish his
various purposes he needed dicta-
torial authority and a guarantee that
parliament would not restrain him.
But while the old president of the re-
public was willing last year to grant
then Chancellor Franz Won Papen
such power, he now felt that time
and condition had changed, and that
it would not be feasible to accommo-
date Won Schleicher. Scout he and
the entire government went.

of setting up new government AS

into action again tonight, facing
the Dartmouth Indians at Hanover, N.
H., in the feature battle of a two-game
program. Penn clashes with Cornell
at Ithaca in the other contest.
TWO victories over Penn and one each
over Cornell and Columbia in the last
three weeks have enabled Yale to grab
a wide lead in the championship race
with four triumphS in five starts. Their
single reverse, way back in January be-
fore their ofenSe began to function.
was suffered at Dartmouth,s hands at
New Haven, 1928.
Were it not for the Ellis sensational
play in recent weeks, Dartmouth, with
the advantage Of playing on its home
floor, would be a. strong favorite. As
1t Is, the Indians, now tied with
Columbia and Penn for third place
with two victories and two defeats, are
sharpshooters in Earl Nikkel, Carson
Elliott and Capt. Bob O'Connell and a
pair OF effective guards in Reggie Miles
and Ben Reese.
Even should Dartmouth win, Yale
still would retain the lead, although the
Ellis would have to share it on a per-
centage basis with the champion
Princeton Tigers. Princeton has won
two games and dropped one.
The Penn-Cornell fray looms a toss
up despite the fact that Cornell has
lost four league games in a row. The
Ithacans, hopeful of championship
at the start of the season, have been
hit by injuries as well as by sheer bad
luck. They lost two games to Columbia
by total margin of five points when

least an even break.

fallen into a slump and needs to win
this game If it hopes to have even an

GREAT SPORTSMAN
AS WELL AS COACH
Man Who Built Foundation
of TuIane's Success Seen
as Chicago Moses.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

BY FRANCIS j. POWERS.
~HICAGO, February 1.-THE
4 University of Chicago made
~ an excellent choice when
1t selected Clark Shaugh-
messy to succeed Amos Alonzo
Stagg as head foot ball coach of
the Maroons. Obviously, the man
who succeeds Stagg must be more
than an ordinary teacher of foot
ball to satisfy Chicago and
Shaughnessy meets all of the re-
quirements.
He Is a grand sportsman and a
thorough gentleman, who will earn
place in university life on the midway
comparable to that held by the "old
Somewhat difndent in his dealings
with the public Shaughnessy reminds
me OF no one more than John w. Wilce,
the former Ohio State coach, who was
among the men to recommend "Shag"
for the Chicago position. Chicago
alumni started q last-minute campaign
in favor of graduate to succeed Stagg
and 1t is to be hoped there will be no
internal antagonism to Shaughnessy
Given the same support accorded to
Stagg during his many lean seasons,
Shaughnessy will bring the Maroon
eleven back to an important place in
Western Conference foot ball.
CHAUGREssY becomes the third
- Minnesota graduate and disciple of
the late DR.. Harry Williams to
head Western Conference eleven, the
others being Bernie Bierman, who is
back on the Gopher campus, and Ossie
Solem Of Iowa. Those three were team
mates at Minnesota in 1912 and 1918,
Shaughnessy playing fu1lback; Bierman,
right half, and Solem, left tackle. AS
q sophomore on MinneSota'S champion
ship team Of 1911 Shaughnessy played
end and tackle so his playing expert
ences were varied.
Shaughnessy really built the founda-
ton for Tulane's foot ball successes
during his ii years at the New Or
leans University. The backfield of his
championship team Of 1925, composed
OF Peggy" Fournoy, Lester Lauten-
schlager, Eddie Morgan and Fred
Lamprecht, still is regarded as one of
the best ever produced in the South.
HitCA Nl11tllIS W 1OyOld OF new OT-
leans, Shaughnessy found himself with
less capable material, and while his
teams were above average they were less
publicized.
CHAUGHNESSY has frequently been
- sought by larger universities, but
until the Chicago position was prof
fered his home ties kept him in New
Orleans AmopO the ,IpiyerSifiac that
one time or another sought Shaughnessy
were Purdue, California, Louisiana State
and Wisconsin.
Like true disciple Of DR.. Williams,
the new Chicago coach utilizes a line
shift as an integral part of his offense
He also Is master of keen forward
pass attack and his running plays are
known for their deception. No coach
ever beat q Shaughnessy coached team
without real fight.

FIRM LISTING RULE
DEBARS NET QUEEN
Ban Due to Failure to Play
In Three Major U. S. Meets.
Helen Jacobs No. /.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, February IL
nj For the second time in
1 Y three years Helen Wills
Moody, unqueStioned queen
of women's tennis, will find her
self unranked by the United
States Lawn Tennis Association
because of insufficient data"
Pursuing its established policy of de-
clining to rank players unless they COM
pete in at least three major tourna-
ments at home, the U. S. L. T. A. at
its annual meeting today will pass over
Mrs. Moody's qualifications and install
the national champion, Helen Jacobs of
Berkeley, as the country's No. l rank
ing player.
Mrs. Moody hasn't even lost a set
to any woman player in the last five
years, and decisively whipped Miss
ish championships at Wimbledon last
year, but the U. S. l.. T. AS rankings
are drawn up solely on the basis of
play in the United States.
In similar situation two years ago
the delegates declined to waive this
policy even for Mrs. Moody and selected
Mrs. L. A. Harper of Oakland, Calf,
as the No. / player. An effort may be
made at the current meeting to broaden
this policy in the future to cover ex-
ceptional cases, such as Mrs. Moody's.
H. Ellsworth Vines position at the top
Of the mems field has not been ques-
toned.
nNE important change in the rules.
~ aimed at curbing player expenses,
may be adopted. This change, sug-
gested by the Amateur Rules Commit
tee and approved by the Executive
Committee, would require clubs or Sec
tional organizations to submit to the
national association detailed account
ings Of expense money allowed travel
ing players and not simply in round
figures" as heretofore
Delegates to the annual meeting
also may be called upon to discuss
by the Lawn Tennis Writers Asso-
citation Of America against alleged dis
courtesieS and 'inconsiderate treat
ment." The protest, already filed with
the Executive Committee, was aimed
specifically at the Philadelphia Coun-
try Club and the West Side Tennis
Club.
LARRY S. KNOX of Chicago was
i i slated for election to the presi-
dency to succeed Louis j. Car
Iuthers Of New York.
Other officers on the slate included: !:
First vice president. Holcombe Ward, New
York; second vice president, Joseph

vamping Chicago's style of offensive
play it Is likely Shaughnessy will start
operations in the near future. The
selection of assistant coaches will be
left entirely to him, but SO far he had
made no announcement as to the prob
able choices. With limited material at
the best and that further reduced by
a number Of scholastic defaults, Shaugh-
messy may have diff1culty in getting ths
Maroons out Of their rut next season,
but his rivals can look forward to the
day when Chicago will afford all the
opposition that can be asked.
The advent of Shaughnessy still
further strengthens the Western Con-
ference coaching forces and it Is doubt
full If any sector can boast of a more
capable group Of foot ball instructors.
Chicago's selection means the Maroons
are determined to rehabilitate their foot
ball fortunes and not, as many had
feared, permit the game to slump to an
Incidental level.
