L FOUNDER; Walter Webb, 145-
FOUNDER; Lyman McAboy, 1855:
Jack Herbsleb, 165, and Stewart Nc
Cav, ITS, the Terrapins offer four Of
the best collegiates in this sector, with
Nedomatsky, Herbsleb and McCaw
standing better -than-even chances of
going through the campaign unde-
feated.
Nedomatsky, sophomore brother of q
well-known professional welterweight,
Jimmy Jones, packs perhaps the
meanest wallop, per poundage, of any
man on the Terrapin squad, one of
the few collegiate aggregations to
show here with versatile, pro-like
attack. Nedomatsky, who was run
ner-up to Pete DeMaggio, now turned
professional, for the District A. A. U.
lightweight title, required only ! min
ute and SIS seconds to finish Frank
Trant for the first kayo and the bout
that gave Maryland 2-to-1 lead,
which was never lost.
HerbSleb, natural ringster, possesses
one advantage that may mean the
difference between victory and de-
feat on more than one occasion and
that is southpaw stance. In Ralph
Whittle, the Terp 165-pounder en-
countered possibly the best ringman
on the v. M. I. team, but the combi-
nation of Herbsleb's body punches
and portside style proved too much.
McCaw Scores Quick Kayo.
NHcCAW, Southern Conference IT'S
M pound champion, was on dis

knocking out Saint Arnold, but he
showed he lacked none of the class
he flashed last season while battling
to one of the best records in this neck

down for the count of 10.

VEHLING CASE HEARD
BY SUPREME COURT
Former Marion County Coroner Asks
Reversal of Conviction.

Arguments for reversal of the
conviction of Fred Vehling, former
Marion County Coroner, who was
sentenced 2 to IA years in the
Indiana State Prison for soliciting
bride while in office, we're heard
by the Indiana Supreme Court to-
day.
Mr.. Vehling, an undertaken, was
found guilty on the charge in 1882.
At the time it was testified that he
had threatened to change his ver-
dict in the report on three acct
dental deaths, so that double in
demnity insurance could not be paid,
unless he received the contracts for
the three funerals. The cost of the
funerals would have been $4,000.
Counsel for the defense argued
today that Mr.. Vehling had been
tried in the editorial columns of The
indianapolis Times before his trial
in court. Mr.. Vehling was repre-
scented by his attorneys of the orig
inal trial, Thomas MCGEE and Fred
Barrett, state Representative from
Marion County. The state was rep
resented by Caleb j. Lindsay, dep
uty attorney general.
