pital. the case of Michael George.
charged with assault on Schenk a
week ago Sunday, which case was
supposed to come up for a. hearing in
the downtown court this morning..

ing at 9 o'clock. There is a possibili-
ty that there will be a. further con-
tinuance at that time until Monday
morning. pending the arrival of
Schenk. ,

Schenk's nose was broken by a blow
given, it is believed. by a. blackjack
when he was set upon and as‘saulted
near his home by five men; It' is said
that George was one of the five en
implicated in the, assault.

George was surrendered to the 10-
cal police by his attorneys. Light.
