COURT UNRAVELS
TRIO’S BRAWL
WEEK’S SENTENCE JAIL
PUNISHMENT FOR
DUKES, KIRKLAND
A three-cornered brawl on which
two were arrested under charges of
assault an drobbery, was unraveled
by Judge B. B. Heery in City Court
non-jury criminal session today.
The affair was brought to a close
with the sentencing of C. E. Dukes
and John Kirkland to a week’s im
prisonment, they had already
served. They were allowed to apply
the time they had already spent in
jail on the sentence.
Mose Elcholz charged Dukes and
Strickland set upon him without
warning as he walked through the
Park Extension. But accord'ng to
Dukes and Strickland it all started
over a difference in political opin
ions.
It appeared from, the testimony
that Eicholz undertook to prove his
political right and Strickland’s wrong
by dint of physical valor. Dukes, he
testified .steped in to separate the
orators. Whereupon he got walloped
for his pains. Then it became a free
for all. For Dukes, he said .cared
less for political opinions than for
defending his features against sud
den and violent change.
What the political difference was
about is still a mystery. Even the
judge doesn’t know.
Two who were judged guilty of sys
tematic theft from a railroad com
pany were sentenced to SSO fines or
five months on the gang. They were
Warden Sharpe and Clifford Spann.
Spann cried guilty and testified
against Sharpe.
Herbert Frazer was fined a total
of $lO with the alternative of 30 days
gang service for maiming a hog and
killing a cc-w belonging to semeone
else. Son Goins was given $25 or
two months for larceny. 800 Hill got
a probated sentence of six months
for firing the woods.

GET VANDENBERG
AS ITS PASS-WORD
SENATOR, DARK HORSE,
HAS STRONG BACKING
AT STATE MEETING
DETROIT, April 24 (TP).—The
pass-word was “Vandenberg for
president” today when Michigan Re
publicans met for their state conven
tion.
Senator Vandenberg, popularly
mentioned as the dark-horse to watch
at the Cleveland convention , has
strong backing at the Detroit con
clave. Most political prophets are
confident that the state group will
vote to send a solid Vandenberg dele
gation to the Republican national
convention.
Vandenberg already has told his
supporters that he does not want the
delegation given “fight to the last
ditch” instructions. The senator said
he didn’t want the Michigan delega
