TWO REGIMENTS BALK From taking part in Garden tournament
Col. George R. Dyer of the Twelfth and Col. David E. Austen of the Thirteenth formally announced that their regiments will not appear in the Military Athletic League tournament at Madison Square Garden. Brig. Gen. George Moore Smith endorsed the stance, urging regimental commanders to avoid un authorized reviews. The Thirteenth, largest in the state, and the Twelfth, nearly tied with the Seventh, refrain to keep state authority intact. The league, six years old, funds athletics for the Army, Navy, National Guard, and Naval Militia. Col. Luscomb received the communications but declined to discuss beyond noting the tournament would proceed.

Judge Criticizes Fixed Counsel Fees in Capital Cases
Judge Warren W Foster of the Court of General Sessions denounces the system of assigning counsel in capital cases for a fixed $500 fee. He calls the statute a recent innovation and deplores its passage. The ruling followed a motion to pay fees for Marco di Medici, acquitted of first degree murder after defense by counsel. Foster notes prior pleas and assignment changes, cites improper influence by intermediaries, and suggests Legislature may repeal or amend the current method.
