From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Dec. 4, 1914:

• “‘In order to make the Sunday School basketball league a success the various schools will have to back their teams,’ said W. H. Boltz this morning in speaking of the basketball game last night. We have several teams in the league and they are doing good work. They are working in the Gymnasium every time they get a chance and are developing into good teams. Mr. Boltz suggests that if the different schools would buy suits for their teams the spirit would be increased and there would be more enthusiasm in the tournament. A number of the teams are contemplating the purchase of suits so that their teams can be distinguished from the others…. The next game in the tournament will be this afternoon when the Congregationalists will play the Baptists.”
• “A quarrel of which no one knows the cause, occurred shortly after noon today, and resulting in the death of one Mexican, and the locking of another in the county jail. Andreas Cora who goes by the American name of Henry Clay was stabbed by Albert Ramiels. A little after noon Ramiels came to the home of Cora and took him away. They went in the direction of the river together. Cora’s wife said that her husband had a gun and Ramiels had a dagger. In a short time the two came back together and Cora was bleeding and staggering along in a very weak condition from the loss of blood. He fell twice before he reached his home at 730 New Jersey. The officers were called immediately…. Cora died from loss of blood shortly after he reached home…. No one can tell of the reason for the quarrel between these two men. They appeared friendly and went around together at different times. Cora’s wife says that she knew no reason why they should quarrel. Ramiels says that he killed Cora in self-defense, but gives no reason for the quarrel.”
• “Work on the excavation at the Country Club for the club house is progressing nicely and Mr. Constant, the contractor, says that they will be ready to start the concrete foundation within a week or ten days providing the weather does not interfere. Mr. Constant has a force of about fourteen men working on the excavation and the work is advancing well. The proposition of making an excavation at the particular point where they are working is a hard matter for there is considerable rock that has to be removed.”
• “During the encampment at Ft. Riley last fall when all of the Kansas National Guard were there for maneuvers, the moving picture companies were there with their machines getting pictures of the troops in action. Pictures of the generals and other officers were secured while directing the troops. The entire camp was shown together with the complete drill of the two regiments from start to finish. It is planned to show these pictures to people all over the state so they will have a general knowledge of the work done by the guards while in camp and the practical experience they get. These pictures will be at the Grand theater some day next week. The exact date has not been settled but will be announced later.”
