was shot and fatally injured last
night at Kegel's Pavallion by "Pro-
fessor" Alfred Rieckhoff, alleged

hoff tired twenty shots into the steel
plate, "ringing the bell" nineteen
times. At the twentieth shot Haverly
sank to the floor, crying. "My God, I

entered his stomach below the plate.
At the Alexian Brothers' hospital
