Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Evening World, March 4, 1924, p. 1. ULLUM CASE IS PASSED UNTIL A LATER DATE No Time Set for a New Trial The case of State vs. Clarence Ullum, Hugh Shields and Guy Ousley, three former university students charged with kidnapping Halson Eagleson, former colored member of the university band and having him locked up at Spencer so that he could not accompany the band to a Purdue game in 1922, was passed over until a later date yesterday. The case had been set for trial on March 3, but by an agreement between attorneys of both sides, the case was allowed to be continued. No date has been set for the trial as yet. The kidnapping case attracted state-wide attention at the time it was filed several months ago because of its nature. Interest in it has more or less quieted, however. At a trial in the last term of court, the jury failed to find a verdict and was dismissed. It was understood in court circles at that time that the jury stood 9 to 3 for acquittal. The prosecution asked a retrial. It is likely that the case will not be heard in this term of court.
