NEW YORK. Mar. 27. Tex Rlcko.rd
took the stand in his own defense to
day In his trial on a charge of assault
ing a lj-year-old school girl.
Rickard began his testimony by
telling of his past experiences a a -Tejtas
cattlo driver and as a partici
pant in the Alaska and Nevada gold
rushes. He admitted ho bad operated
I gambling houses in several places but
(asserted that one of his strictest ruloa
,n Tn Place he owned was that un-
(escorted women should not be permit-
to enter.
He declared that he never employed
I women in gambling houses and did
not believe they were necessary even
during the rather wild days in Alaska.
NEW YORK, Mar. 27. Mrs. May
Rickard today took the stand in de
fense or her hnsba 1, Tex, charged
with assaulting a lb-year-old east side
girl, and testified that the sports pro
moter was at home trom about 7 to 8
p. m. on November 12, the night the
assault was alleged to have been made '
in a West 47th street apartment house.
Prosecution witnesses previously had
testified that Rickard met the girl,'
Sarah Schoenfeld, at 7:30 o'clock.
Mrs. Rickard testified that sha had ,
been 111 November 12, when several
guests had been Invited to dinner. She
said that her husband had come home
oo muni auuuv :m or i o ciock and
that after dinner he had come to her
room. That, she thought was about
eight o'clock.
.NbVi YORK, March 27. Rex
Beach testified today that Tex Rick-"
ara was Known m Alaska as being "on
tne square."
i ne novelist was called as a char
acter witness by lawyers defending '
the sports promoter at his trial on a
charge of assaulting 13-year-old Sa
rah Schoenfeld of the east side.
Beach said that he had knov?n
Rickard for 24 years, and that they
had driven spikes together during
the Klondike gold rush. Later Rick
ard ran a gambling House In Alaska
In which the novelist said he never
had heard of anything crooked hap
pening. Asked some hypothetical questions
on whether he thought gambling hon
orable. Beach said that at that time
gambling In the far north was not
against the law, and whether the bus
iness was honorable depended on
w-hether it was run on the level.
The next character witness was
Charles E. Herron, who described
himself as miner, fisherman and pub
lisher of the Anchorage Daily Tlmea.
He also stated that Rickard had a
good reputation In the north land.
Asl to the ethics ot gambling, the
witness said he now abhored It, but
that when the gold rush was on ev
eryone did it and no one thought
anything about it.
Drexel Riddle Testifies
The symposium on gambling was
continued when Major A. J. Drexel
Biddle of Philadelphia, for 14 years
leader in the Bible class movement,
testified that he knew nothing about
Rickard's character. ,
