solid German carpenter had been
convicted after trial which resem-
bled "circus."
The petition also contended Haupt-
msnn's constitutional rights had been
violated in the sensation packed trial
at Pennington. N. j.
Procedure Is Outlined.
Supreme Court attaches said the
niue justices probably would announce
on December % whether they would
review his conviction. That would
give Hauptmann either glad tidings
or mournful news for a Christmas
present.
If a review were granted. attaches
said arguments normally would be
heard in February or March and a
final decision could be expected a
few weeks later.
sometimes. however, criminal cases
are advanced to expedite a decision
Rosecrans said today he would not
oppose that action.
Undue Influence" Charged.
The Hauptmann petition contended
the jury was ''unduly Influenced" by
the daily presence of Col. Lindbergh
at the trial, by the ''infiammatory'
summation Of state council, and by
"hysterical mob spirit"
These points previously had been
raised in an unsuccessful appeal to
New Jerseys highest tribunal, the
Court Of Errors and Appeals.
The Supreme Court also was asked
to permit the taking of additional
testimony. a request denied by the
New Jersey court.
Rosecrans' petition will be served
on the State of New Jersey within
the next 10 days The State will have
20 days thereafter to answer. The
court will decide without oral argu-
ment whether to review the case, and
may hand down its decision late in
December or early in January.
Should the court refuse to review
the case, Hauptman would die in the
electric chair nearly next year unless
the New Jersey Court of Pardons
commuted his sentence to life impris-
onment. If the review is granted, the
Supreme Court would probably hear
oral arguments next term. Execution
has been stayed pending disposition
of the Supreme Court appeal.

1.-The ''intemperate and objection

SEVEN FROM ONE
CITY ON COLLEGE
FOOTBALL TEAM

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 81. WP)-The
folks in Kenosha, Wis, take quite
an interest in the Creighton uni
versity football team of Omaha,
there being seven Kenoshans on
the squad, but when the early
games were played this fall they
couldn't place Charley KLEIN when
his name appeared.
Klem'S football prowess is a sur
prise to Kenosha, which knows him
only as fine basketball player. 1t
is also something of a surprise to
KLEIN. He never suspected it until
last spring when Marchie Schwartz
suggested he come for spring prac-
tice and toss the ball around.
Hes just natural born passer,"
Schwartz said after a few sessions.
He must get it from his basket
ball playing. He can throw with
great accuracy and he seems to
have the knack of seeing where a
receiver will break into the open
almost before the receiver gets
there"
Thus, Charley KLEIN makes the
seventh member of the Kenosha
club on the Creighton team.

UNCLE WIGGLY AND By

Copyright 1885

Once upon a time as Uncle Wig
gily was hopping through the woods
looking for an adventure he heard
a noise in the bushes. 1t was a
sort of grillery growlery noise and
right away the rabbit gentleman
thought most naturally, it was one
of the Bad Chaps.
But which one?" he wondered
There's Number One, that's the
Fox. There's Number Two, that's
the Wolf, and there's Number Three
the Bob Cat. l wonder which this
is?" So he asked: Who are your"
"Oh, I'm the first" was the
growing answer.
Il might have known 1.-THE Fox"
thought poor Uncle Wiggily II
wonder what sort of a trick | can
play on him? Why don't you show
yourself, Mr.. Fox? Why do you
keep me waiting?" called the rab-
bit. Uncle Wiggily had made up
his mind to throw some pepper in
the eyes of the Fox when that Bad
Chap came out. The bunny had
some of his bologna sausage auto
tire pepper with him,
But to his surprise voice an
swered
I'm not Mr.. Fox
Aren't you?" asked the rabbit.
Why, you said you we're the first
and that's always the Fox
Out Comes a Bear
No, no. I'm not a fox" and the
growing voice sounded rather jolly
now. I'm a Bear Tn the Firs
Bear and out of the bushes lum
bered big shaggy chap like Mr.
Stubtail, the kind bear father o
Neddie and Beckie."
"Oh, so you're the First Bear, ar,
your" asked Uncle Wiggily.

can't believe you're just pretend
ing-out of a book
But I am," growled the First
Bear in pleasant voice. I'm the
Big Bear in the story. Goldilocks
tasted my porridge, she sat in my
chair and she tried my bed. Not
that l minded 1t was all in fun
But what are you doing here?'
asked the rabbit.
Locking for Mr.. Stubtail"
I'm looking for your friend, Mr..
Stubtail," was the answer. Even if
I'm only make believe he'll want to
see me. Can you tell me the way
to his den?"
"Cf course. Yes. Come with me
if you please said Uncle Wiggily
rather puzzled for he knew he
wasn't dreaming and he could see
the First Bear very plainly. So the
two walked through the woods to-
gether until they came to some
other bushes and out of them jump
ed a real Bad Chap-the Fox.
"Oh, oh, Uncle Wiggilyl l have
you now" howled the Fox You
can not get away and that First
Bear with you can't help you for
he isn't real at all Ha! Hal He's
only pretend"
But all of a quickness that First
Bear stepped up to the Fox and ne
hit him such a blow with his paw
that he knocked the Bad Chap away
into the middle of next week and
he may be there yet.
Il can be real when | want to,
laughed the bear. The rabbit also
laughed and hoped on. And if the
condensed milk doesn't put toe
much ketchup on the potato pan
cake, I'll tell you next about Uncle
Wiggily and the Second Bear.
