Seventy persons, officials, drivers, cleaners and others in the Yellow Cab company garage on the west side, were terrorized by six gangsters armed with machine guns early today. Matthew Kurtz, the cashier, was forced by a burst of gun fire to open the door of his office and admit the bandits, who scooped up $6,000 and departed, warning all their victims to make no outcry. Several persons who entered the garage were lined up against the walls and held In subjection by the machine guns.

Those from the various divisions of business say that a man qualified to practice is an asset to his firm because he will know what cases to take to court and those not to take, a consequent Bavlng of thousands of dollars over a period of years. Others point out that the man with legal training will rise faster "in his line" because the mental discipline exacted fits him to cope with and solve the intricate problems that develop in the various fields. Swk Liberal Education. A majority of those from the business and professional ranks will take the state bar examination but even if they are successful in passing do not plan to practice. They see a law degree and qualification for the bar as the basis of the liberal education which they feel was not obtainable during their high school and college days.

As in all departments of Detroit Institute of Technology, the students are well past the collegiate age. Very few are in the law college because their parents want them to be lawyers or because they feel their own dignity demands the buttress of a legal degree. The vast majority of students are "on their own" economically and have made their own decision with regard to entrance. GOLFPROSHURT BY GRANT DIXON. New York, April 20.

Mr. Tarkington's chauffeur, I think, was named Jeb, and his uniform consisted of an old cap and any suit of clothes that he happened to have, usually dotted here and there with grease spots.

Being anxious to convince his chauffeur that it was the proper form of headgear, Mr. Tarkington wore the cap for several days and as the result was subject to some embarrassment. While standing outside a store, some tourists in a Ford drove by and saw Mr. Tarkington sitting in the car In his cap while Jeb was doing an errand.
