By Associated Press WASHINGTON, November The Mitchell court martial today expunged from the records all mention of the episode of Friday when remarks by Brigadier General King, a member of the court, brought vigorous protests of counsel for Mitchell. Representative Reid, chief counsel for Mitchell, asked that the records be amended to obliterate the remarks. General King, Mr. Reid indicated at the time had remarked that certain phases of the examination of a witness were "damned General King apologized the time. The prosecution mapped out its program so as to give the navy witnesses an opportunity to testify as to Colonel Mitchell's charges feels against that branch of the service.

Richardson, pilot of the plane NC-3 in its attempt to cross the Atlantic in 1910, said the craft in which Lieutenant Pearson was killed in 1924 at Fail-field, had been in storage from the time of the Pulitzer races in 1923, until April, 1924.

Mathe has Iternationai News Service Sports Editor NEW YORK, November "Red" Grange carried ice until everyone in 'America knew about it But Bill Madden goes him one better.

He lives in an orphanage and helps to pay his way through college by playing big brother to a lot of small ones. You never heard of William? Neither "did the writer until this year he began to tear up opposing lines as a back at field man at Columbia University. Madden is as unique in his sphere as the ice-toting Grange is in his. He. is a product of the Leake and Watts Orphanage, New York.

He grew to manhood in the institution and liked the atmosphere so much that he never left it, even when he matriculated at Columbia. He returns nightly to the institution to study and to earn his board and bed by assisting the masters in their duties. A Full Day In the morning and early afternoon, he attends classes at Columbia. Later in the day, he goes out to Baker Field for football practice. A rather full day? But we have already told you that Madden's case is unique.

As a matter of fact, it is more that that. He is the only big college football player, since the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, who can claim a charitable institution as his day-to-day home. Madden, of course, is the idol of the place, just as Babe Rutli is. at the Baltimore institution from he came to startle the world. Madden hasn't done that yet but yon can't prove it at, the Leake and Watts Orphanage.
