Teams Debut
Friday al
Central
BY GARRETT WATERS

NAAA4%@NAA@
The annual interhigh school
baseball series breaks into the
spotlight this week when the Tech
and Central mines get together at
the Central Stadium.
The contest comes Friday and
features a heavy schedule mum.
bering II clashes for the week.
Central will be the big favorite
in this one. And for the simple
reason the Mt. PleaSanterS have
more experienced material than
their rivals and have played more
outside games this spring.
Techs biggest weakness will be
from the mound. No pitchers Of
veteran caliber are on the squad,
and in contrast, Central's pitch
ing is well balanced with those
two southpaws, George Rowles
and Arnold Heft around.
.. Half Dozen Contests
Neither team has Jared we'll in
outside games insofar as victories
have been concerned. But Central
has played q half dozen contests
gaining invaluable experience
while Tech has played in only one
contest.
In all Of Central'S contests, the
performers packed talent. And it
< is Coach Jack Rays belief this
talent may be brought out in the
interhigh series, particularly if an
impressive victory is registered
Friday.
Speaking of experience, Tech
should get q little of it today in
an Outside" game on schedule.
The Trainers play the Marblehead
High nine, of Marblehead, Mass.
The Tech diamond is supposed to
be the scene, but if the game is
played at all 1t will be waged on
the Monument grounds.
= The MarbleheadS are IN town
for their annual spring visit. They
. have contests with Central and
Eastern before they depart, meet
ing the Parkers tomorrow at East
ern, and Central Wednesday.
Four other games are on Sched-
ule tomorrow beside the Eastern
Marblehead encounter. Western
entertains G. w. High, Of Alexan-
dria, In one, while Roosevelt meets
Montgomery-Blair at Roosevelt in
another; Central plays Loyola

Chevy Chase engages Gaithersburg

JAMES IS ACCUSED
Of DROWNING TWO
Previous Wife's Death Cited
in Trial for Murder of
Seventh.
Nv the Associated Press.

6y the ASSOClhJeu FIeso'
LOS ANGELES, July 1.-Use Of a
previous wife's death as an additional
weapon in the prosecution of Robert
@. James on charge of numbering his
seventh mate was fought by his de-
fense attorney today.
Prosecutors contend James drowned
both women to collect their life in
surance-after other methods had
failed, an automobile crash in one
case, rattlesnake poison in the other.
An argument on admissibility Of
testimony concerning the death of
Winona James at Manitou, Colo, in
1892, was started yesterday when ]. A.
Rogers. superintendent of the Pixies
Peak Highway, was placed on the
stand.
Scarcely had prosecutors begun
questioning Rogers when the defense
protested the case of Winona had
nothing to do with the charge on
trial-that he drowned Mary James
last August after submitting her to
snake bites
Deputy District Attorney Eugene
Williams told the court James Struck
Winona on the head with a hammer
as they drove up Pixies Peak, sent the
car over a cliff as she lay unconscious,
and reported it as an accident, in
which he escaped injury.
The jury was excused while attor-
neys argued the point. Superior
Judge Charles w. Fricke said he would
rule on the question today.
John Barnes, another deputy dis
trict attorney, said Mrs. Winona
James body was found in tub of
water after she recovered from the
supposed accident, and that James
received $4,000 in insurance.
In a strategical about-face the de-
fense announced James would testify
next week. thus necessitating aban-
donment Of previous indications an
insanity plea would be used.

spread over the countryside. among
white men and red men, about the
potency Of this hair. Even today the
old cattlemen are full of stories of the
great sachem which they heard from
the older Indians. One such legend Is
that Red Plume used to find his way
into the dark cavern on the sacred
Mountain of the Wheel and spend days

with the mysterious little people" who
supposedly dwelt there.
In the course of time the famous

number Of "coups," or deeds of daring
with which he was officially credited.
For each he was allowed to put a
feather on his coup stick" which he
carried with him on all ofilcial occa-
sions. "Coups"' were granted for the
scalps Of white men or Sioux Indians,
traditional enemies Of the Crows. They
also were granted for stealing horses
under the eyes of the Sioux watchers
or the American army sentinels. This
man had so many "coups" that it was
felt no man reasonably could desire
any more, just as one might say that
nobody could reasonably want more
than million dollars. In other words
he had plenty"
