At that point iMith Hides fired. Two rebels were killed. Finally we drove the rebels out. We stayed around a while and a rebel quartermaster drove up with a large wagon load of meat and asked where General Forest’s headquarters were. “We told him we could take care of him and we captured the whole wagon-load of food. After we enjoyed a fine meal, the first in two days, we started again after the rebels. We drove the rebels 25 mil '3 across Cold Water Creek. We were joined by a regiment and a battery. "It was rejiorted that there were 1.5(i0 rebels and only 300 of us. “1 remember when we stopped, I stood picket tliat night without an overcoat, and it got so cold the grass ficze all around me. We weren't allowed to light fires and I had to walk to keep from freezing to death. Next day. after we had driven the rebels completely out, we went back to Maskaw. We stayed there until evening. It got terribly cold, and began snowing. That was the night before that, co’d New Year’s day of 1864. “Then they brought the train out after us and we all went back to Memphis. It had snowed three ■>r four inches in Memphis since we left. The major tried to get us to march from the train to camp, but we all broke loose and ran. hen we got to camp, each tent had a stove and I was almost frozen to death without a coat, mattress or anything to keep warm.” Don 1 forget the Community Sale, Bellmont Park, 10 4.M., Saturday, January I—s head of horses, 30 head of '•at< e, 65 head of sheep, 50 head of hogs and full line of farm machinery.

KIRKLAND IS BEATEN BI C.C. Kirkland high school Kangaroos faltered in the closing minutes of a net argument at Kirkland last night and dropped a hard-fought game to Cent 1 Catholic of Fort Wayne, 2623. Th ■ game was dose throughout, and Coach Bill Bryans charges played a great game against a great Cent;- 1 Catholic team. The Adams county netters started scoring early and held a slight lead most of the first half. When the wliisti sound, d ‘Aiding the first halt Kirkland held a 13-12 lead. During the second stanza Dettin center for the Kangaroos was scut to the showers on personal fouls and the Fort Wayne aggregation forged ahead. Kirkland made 1 s renuous ffon to gain back its lust t.Glory but the visitors continued thi r offensive spree and |‘>imrged with i 3-point victory. Central I'itholic has one of th< I best teams ever to represent that i school, having lost only one game [this season. The Kangaroos looked : good in th? game and Coach Bryan st ’led that he was sure his netters • had a lot of good games left, in them. o [d/mwt' r1... ~ ° HHAPPY NEW YEAR. FOLKS. Tonight at 8 o’clock the Curttstneti take to the hardwood down on Tdams Street against., Paul Kreighbaum’s Vikings. Last night the Vikings turn-, ed back the Bluffton Tigers 35-34. The game was not an upset, since the Tigers have been dwindling power on the ba ketball floor for the last several years. Basket bawls thought the Tigers might win—and they might, have. Coach Bill Bryan’s Kirkland Kangaroos played the strong Central Catholic quintet to a ttandstill at Kirkland last night—and then finally were nosed out after Dettinger, one ol the greatest centers in the county was removed from the game. This boy Dettinger, while he hatj a bad habit of leaving the game on PmsomdH, is one of t|, e gl - eatest ’ • k tball players Adams county b’s ever had. He guards, jumps, dioGts and passes like nobody’s business- and with the aid of four Other fighting Kangaroos, any II team knows it’s been a basketball

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT WEDNESDAY, JAM ARV 1, 1930.

I game. 1 ""■ "• ~~ I Paul Hancher, sports editor author, star singer of the De- 1 catur high school glee club and philosophist of general recognition wins the big gold plated trophy. (dashes indicate a lapse of time.) Paul left the Daily Democrat early last evening stating that he was going to attend the Elks dance at Bluffton.—-—(another lapse of time) —Now we have the budding journalist all combed, shaved and shined ready to go to the West Suburb— (another time disappearance)—Paul arrives in Bluffton and goes immediately to the home of his girl friend—Then the sad news — The Bluffton Elks dance is New Year's — But then Paul was prepared for the shock and cooly notified his lady friend that he ■knew it but just wanted to make sure he’d be there in time. Walter Krick, Dean of Men of Decatur high school and brother-in-law of the West Suburb’s big steam engine, says lie can't figure out. how the Tigers came so close to winning a lyasketball game. Dean Krick was referring to the Huntington game last night— Don't fail to see the Hunt-ington-Decatur game here tonight. Coach H. L. Curtis, accompanied by a group of well-known gunmen attended the Blnffton-Hunt-'ngton game last night and reports that either team is easy n -kings for the Yellow Jackets.— and we says Herb knows his 'tasketbqll. Two of Indiana’s best high school coaches will match wits tonight. Paul Kreighbaum, no matter what you call him undir your breath, is one of the best coaches in northern Indiana. He is for Huntington first, last and always—and if there’s another coach like the Monrovia Butcher Boy, who instructs the Yellow Jackets, we’d like to know who. No doubt hotli coaches will arise often during the game--especially if Lundy Welbourn does ills usual officiating. Saturday night the Commodores match wits against Andrews high school netters—-That will be some gan;e too and if the Luurentmen are hitting the Commies should win easily. HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYBODY. INDIANA HAS SPORT GALAXY Indianapolis, Jan. I—(UP)—That particular Goddess whose domain s Ihe sport world, trailed bro idly :>n Hoosier athletes in 1929 and the 1 vear ended today as one' of most outs'auding in Indiana sport history.

Frankfort h id a basketball team of super-ability when it won the state high school ehampionship. Froebel high school of Gary revealed ability on the track and field when it won the high school track meet, that was far above the averig. prep school class. Coach Alonzo Stagg. Chicago, regarded the team as one of the best-balanced in the country. George I titice, Terre Haute, stepped to the fore and won the Indiana amateur golf championship for the third consecutive time. Orvil Martin, Purdue, won the mile and half-mile runs in the Big Ten track meet, a feat seldom tie complished by any Indianan. He also won tlie Big Ten individual cross country title and recognition as one of the greatest distance runners of ill time. Niel Mclntyre, Indianapolis, won the state open golf championship in one of those never-to-be-forgotten tournaments in which he and two others battled on even terms until almost the last hole. Mrs. Albert E. Bulson. Fort Wayne, won her second Indiana women's golf championship, against i field of brilliant players. Purdue won not only its first Big Ten conference championship in history hut played through to an undefeated season against stiff opposition, giving Indiana two teams r,f national champ'onship calibre. Other nation il recognition was won cs follows: Na'ional basketbal Ititle—Butler university. National football claimant—Notre Dame.

The Uke county political cor ruption investigation, if it has not resulted i n indictments, has at least convinced thousands that is something rtepresenU ble in the manner in which elections are conducted in that county This is expected to react against <>lto G. l-ifield. secretary of H t ate a resident of Crown Point, who will be a candidate for re-election Eiheid came to the capitol 'conndent of being re-elected in 1930 and then garnering the nomination for governor in 1932. He antagonized Leslie by retaining the Jack-son-Coff n appointees over the pro- | test of the governor. State police were mentioned frequently as having participated in vote frauds in Lake county and in guarding truck loads of liquor. The fight tp keep R. o. Johnson from taking office as mayor of Gary has split the organization in Lake county, and it is possible that a divided delegation will be pres at at the 193(1 state convention and will fail to nominate Fifield. Democrat c leaders frankly declare that they desire Fifield's nomination because the Lake county corruption cry can be used

1 against him in the fall campaign. 1 Republican delegates from other' parts of the state will be afraid to nominate Fifield because of this! same cry, and the precedent of pei milting holders of two-year-terms to be renominated. Whether this w.ll be sufficient to blast his political hopes is. of course, a matter fu>m open speculation. Clouds have been gathering over J the senatorial situation. A sharp cleavage over the question of a state chairman is expected. with V. S. Senator James E. Watsou supporting the incumbent,; Elza O. Rogers, against a candidate I to be put forth by Senator Arthur R. Robinson. Robinson has lost George V. Cos-i tin, h's right power in the seventh I district, through the democratic; city victory, which made a clean sweip of the republican ticket in Indianapolis. A bitter fight will be waged in the May primary to oust all the Coffin precinct committeemen by the new Marion club, which will be more disposed to play ball with Watson than with Robinson. The showdown of strength is expected when both senators return to Washington next week and attempt to select a successor Io Geolge Foote as inttliiai revenue collector in Indiana. Two avowed candidates for the post are Miss Dorothy Cunninghare, national committeewoman from Inliana, and Harry Nichols, third district chairman. Nichols, who may be a contender for state treasurer, has been definitely told tiiat he will not be given the Watson support for collector. Robinson, in an effort to win the third district, may support Nichols. The appointment of Will Sparks of Rushville, as judge of the Federal circuit court of appeals, has reacted more to Robinson’s favor than to Watson’s, and the former is believed to have won the first goal. The city elections in the state have been preponderantly democratic and dopesters declare that this po'nts to a statewide strengthening of Hie democratic situation, with possible victory in November, 1930. Marion county and Vanderbnrg county a raerl deya move dtldE county are already conceded to the democratic column, wttich can be regained by the republicans only through complete and thorough house cleanings. Politically 1929 has been unkind to Leslie. He stands almost alone. Leslie has been responsible for the elevation of John J. Brown to a commanding position in iris counsels, and the highway director is said to be his candidate for governor in 1932. Brown will probably maintain a neutral stand in the 1930 campaign, devoting most of h s time to repairing his own fences
