great game. Not only was he res-

“ The first frame displayed a fine
array of playing on both teams. It
.was a well fought quarter with a
very rosy outlook for the Hatters.
.They pushed on down the field to-
,ward Norwaik's goal. They did get
as far as the 20 yard line but there
they lost their hold and were forced

that quarter were over.

to the realization that the opponents
bed a good team. On the first down
Captain Holmes took the ball for n

of others it reached the 50 yard line
and there it remained until the whis-
tle announced the second quarter.
Then came the scoring. “Hawk"
Skids took the bail id the first min-
nu of the second division and car-
ried it for a 40 yard gain. A splen-

and was quickly taken advantage of.
With helpful gains by Luther Cle-
ments near the opponent's goal
posts. Skidd carried the ball across
amidst the great cheers of the some
300 Norwalkers who witnessed the
game. The kicked was blocked.

he was director .of theVetor-ans’
Bureau. lire. Williams testified yes-
terday- before the Senate Veterans
committee. She was called'after. the
four days‘ examination of F
had been concluded. ‘
Mrs. Williams said her husband.
who has testined against .Forbes.
went to the President in company
with Representative Edmondson.
Republican. Pennsylvania. late, in
1922. This was after Forbes and his
friend. Sidney Bleber. of Washing-
ton. had threatened her over the
long distance telephone. she said.
because she had written a letter ce-
tailing some of the charges of in-
trigue. graft and corruption in con-
nection with hospital contracts and
other matters which Elias H. Mor-
timer since - has made against
Forbes before the committee.
Told of Meeting
"The President apologized." she
said. “and said how he had met Mr.
Forbes and had come to appoint
him. He‘ said he had met him in
Honolulu and that Mr. Forbes as
the American omclal there. had
shown the party about. Later. he
came to Marion—3’
Chairman ilced interrupted to end
this phase of the witness' testimony
as immaterial to the purpose of the
inquiry.
Mrs. Williams. who said- she was
the aunt of Mrs. Elias H. Morii er.
declared that Forbes and Bleber ad
visited her home in Philadelphia in
an effort to get possession of some
papers which Mortimer had given
to Mrs. Mortimer for safekeeping.
This was after the friendship be-
tween Forbes and Mortimer had
been broken off and after Mrs. Mor—
timer had contemplated starting di~
vorce proceedings against her hus-
band.
“They told me of what terrible
things were going to happen to Mr.
Mortimer," . Mrs. Williams testified.
"That he was to be arrested and that
they did not want Mrs. Mortimer
with him then nor did they want
her to be in possession of the pa.~
pers. as it might make trouble for
her. It would take me a week to
tell you the things they told. me
about Mr. Mortimer."
Gave Away Papa's ,
Mrs. Williams said she and Mrs.
Mortimer came to Washington to
get the papers from a bank here
and that afterwards at their hotel.
Mrs. Mortimer gave a few of them
to Forbes. ' r
"1 don't know what they were
about." the witness continued. ”but
I think Mr. Forbes was disappointed
because he did not receive more of
them." "
Continuing her narrative. Mrs.
Williams said that the night before
she and Mrs. Mortimer started back
to Philadelphia. Biober came to
their hotel room. pointed a riding
crop at them and stated that it
”carried enough to kill a. man."
"Then he took 0. revolver from
his pocket." hire. Williams added.
"laid it on the dresser and said 'now
I'd like to meet Mortimer.’ "
Mrs. Williams said the Mortimer
papers were taken to her home. and
kept there until Mrs. Mortimer
turned them over to S. D. Timber-
lake. I. Staunton. Va. lawyer. who
represented Mrs. Mortimer in her
divorce proceedings. The witness
could not say what had beconu 'of
them after that. '
\Vrittcn to lawyer ‘
The letter concerning which Mrs.
Williams said she had been threat-
ened was written to Timberlake and
at his request. according to her tes-
timony. 'rimberlake had represented
to her. she said, that wwith. the use
of this information. he could and
out what Forbes and "the othem"
were trying to get at. ,
“Mr. Timber-lake turned the letter.
over to Mr. Forbes two or three days
later.” she said. '
‘ The witness declared that despite
, the. threats she mine to Washington
and saw Hebe: Votaw and “saw
what these men were doing." and
asked Mr. Votaw to go to the Pres~
ident about it. It- was later. she
said. that Mr. Williams called on
Mr. Harding.
Reiterates Delilah

he was on the stand yesterday

“The two-operation in the. -welfs.re‘

sistance in . solving the personal

are important works in which the
American Red Cross. by nature of
its organization. is especially titted
to render useful service. -No gov-
rnment agencyexists which is go
well adapted to perform these func-
tions."
Calling attention ‘tothe Roll Call
Secretary Weeks directs command-
ing-officers of all stations and units
to bring to the attention of the per-
sonnel the nature of the services
rendered to the Army by the Amer-
loan Red Cross and to alert! every
opportunity to join the organisation.
Secretary of the Navy Denby also
has directed that the men of the
naval service be given opportunity
to "sign on" with the Red Cross.

augurated on the President’s yacht.

ington debutantee signed on the of-
ficers and crew 100 per cent.. the

The following letter was received
from Cardinal Douherty. by Mr.
John H. Storer. one of the incorpor-
ators of the American Red Cross and
also Chairman of the Waltham.
Massachusetts chapter;
My Dear Mr. Storer:
Your campaign in behalf of addi--
tional membership in the Red Cross
deserves to be successful. The fact
that. in such a brief time. your so-
ciety was able to send over ten mil-
lions of dollars for the victims of
the Japanese catastrophe should
thrill every Amorican with pride.
and should contribute to the increase
of membership.’
The American people are lustly
proud of a society which. in time of
peace. not only mitigates sunering
caused by pestilence. famine. lire.
floods and earthquakes. but also de-
vises and carries out measures for
preventing disasters as far as human
ingenuity can forestall them: and in
time of war furnishes volunteer help
for the sick and wounded of armies.
irrespective of nationality. creed or
color. It would seem that in order
to gain a large membership it should
sufllco to make known the work of
your society.
