He will attempt to get a boy in New York to battle “Bat” Battalino, featherweight champlon of Conneeti- cut, For a rip-roaring battler, Batta- lino has them all beat. Give him time and he will be out among the professionals giving them all a run for their money.

With Spring a little more than a month away, the Kensington A. C. is planning to discuss bascball in earnest at a meeting in the near future.

The two| brothers surrendered to authorities | vesterday. Another brother, Leroy, is under bond awaiting trial in the case and their father, J. 8. Williams, is serving a life term in the pent- tentiary. The Williams case cams into pub- lic notice after department of justice agents visited the Jasper county farm in the spring of 1926. The government investigators at that time charged that more than 20 ne- groes on the farm had been killed from time to time and their bodies buried or thrown into Yellow river which flows near the farm, When ofticers discovered 11 bodies in shallow graves on the farm, Williams and his three sons were in- dicted in the state court for murder and the federal-court held them for | trial on peonage charges. i The elder Williams faced trial in the ate court and was convicted of | the murder charge largely through the testimony of Clyde Manning, & negro farm laborer, who told that he had been forced to aid the farmer | in “getting ¥id” of negro plantation worlkers. Manning deseribed how negroes | that were to be killed were chained s despite their shrieks and prayers. Williams denied any part in slay- {ing the negroes and maintained he | was the victim of “a frame up. The three sons of the convi man fled before indictments we turned against them.
