announced that the state rested.
Kadish indicated Jacobs should
take the stand again. then asked
a moment for a whispered confer

too, rested-at PAS.
Dismissal Is Denied
Kadish then made formal mo-
tons for dismissal on grounds
that prejudicial testimony per-
mitted to 70 to the jury had made
it necessary for the defendant to
take the stand in violation OF his
constitutional rights; that the
state had not presented sufficient
evidence. and that he felt 'it would

The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1942-02-12

For the first time all season the
junior college had things its own way
in defeating Northland college of
Ashland, Wis, handily 51-4l, here
Friday.
There was never any doubt about
who was going to win.
Ely was in the van the entire time.
1t was Northland which was doing
the creeping up, and Ely the pulling
away.
The jaysees made the most baskets,
the most free throws, and the least
fouls.
And to make the performance COM
plete, it was a guard who usually does
not figure strongly in the scoring that
was high-point man. He was William
Mills, who plunked seven counters
through the hoop for the top offensive
performance of the evening.
The game was slam bang and high
pressure all the way. The players
seesawed the length of the floor, and
when either team got near the basket
the ball was put through the hoop
with surprising regularity.
But it was Ely which maintained an
advantage on the seesawipg, and on
the basket making, and as a result
victory No. was marked up.
The box score:
