When Gene Funney, former heavyweight boxing champion, look the stump for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, it was rumored that the G. O. P. tried to get Jack Dempsey, but apparently the old Mauler believes in doing all his talking in shorthand. However, the entrance of Albie Booth, former Y'ale grid star, into the ring in support of the G. O. P. is calculated to offset any gain Tunney may make. Then there is “Red” Cagle, former Army line-crasher, who is also willing to die for the dear old Elephant. Booth and Cagle recently flew to the capital and assured President Hoover that if end runs or darts around left tackle could win an election, he could settle down for another four years in the V/hile House. Still more active in politics is another great gridiron figure* Tad Jones, former Yale coach, who recently received the Republican nomination for Congress, to succeed Representative Tilson of Connecticut. Then there is John Law, who was one of Knute Rockne's great ball-carriers at Notre Dame. John is campaigning as Democratic candidate for Assemblyman from the sth Westchester County, N. Y., district. Between speeches he coaches the Sing Sing prison ‘earn. So with sport so closely associated with politics, we may yet sec poEtical con ventions enlivened with cheering sections and acrobatic cheer leaders.

FACES DEATH FOR STABBING Guadalajara, Mexico.— (U.R) —Mi-gm-l Ahumada, 3(5, educated in the I'nited States and a former resident of El Paso, Tex., must die for the slaying of his sweetheart, according to the ruling of Judge Raf-| 'ael J. Rivera, here. Ahum ida was charged with the | i fatal stabbing of Antonio del Cas--■tillo on their wedding eve, Oct. 29, J 11929. | Ahumada is the son of a former, , governor of the State of Chihuahua, i Miss Del Castillo was the daughter, of wealthy parents and a famous] society beauty here. An autopsy i rovea’ed she had been under the; .ivfuence of drugs when she died, physicians testified. Her family ]' said she had never been known to] taka drugs before. Friends of the young woman told [police that jealousy caused Ahum ' ada to stab her. The arrival of a! former sweetheart of the girl hero was believed to have-enraged Ahu-1 mada. who, doctors said, had been f under the influence of drugs fori several days. Attorneys Carlos Luna and Is- 1 mael Sanchez Saldana, who defend-1 ed Ahumada, said they would ap-l peal the death sentence. Ahumada j was too ill to be in court when sentence was pronounced. His father was one of the last governors of Chihuahua under Hie | reign of Porfirio Diaz and died in > exile at El Paso, Texas. —o ■ REPORT WELLS COUNTY THEFTS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONU* portable phonograph belonging to a teacher.

Soldiers, however, continued on duty but nix in as great numbers as heretofore. Guards around public buildings and two troop liarracks still were maintained but on a limited scale as military continued an investigation into a reported plot to bomb the barracks. The plot was revealed by a Tay-i lorvllle citizen who said he overheard it discussed in Springfield. ; Meanwhile a military board com-1

posed of troop commanders here resumed inquiry into the killing of Andrew Ganes, 45, strike picket, at Tovey last week by a national guardsman. Action of tiie progressive union leaders In ordering picketing activities stopped is believed to be in lino with a program to permit n iners to return to work and at a later date give them an opportuu- ' ity to vote as to which union they desire to belong. Such a plan has been advocated by Pat Ansboury, West Frankfort, a leader in the progressive movement. He said that his plan would prevent further violence. -——•— o Anti-Saloon League To Support Hoover Indianapolis, Oct. 19—(DPI —Si: • port of President Hoover for reel ction was announced here today by the Indima anti-saloon league.

BRITISH RUSH 1931 CENSUS Lond n. —(TTP)—In a hu?q, gray reeluiigu'ar block of government I buildings in West London, a small army of workers is feverishly comI pleting the organization of data colI lected in the 1931 census. GatherII ing the original house-to-house re- .' ports is only the barest beginning •'of the giant task. '; The full record ot age, sex, color, . residence, occupation, etc., of 40,- ; 000,000 persons must be transcribied from the original reports of the • census-takers to a card index for I permanent filling. j There must be every possib’e ! economy of detail consistent with | completeness and accuracy; abbre- . |viations and code numbers, inconi- ■! prehensible to the are ■ used. The data are punched on • cards bu bill robots, doing 500 ■ cards an hour with fingers moving at an unbelievable rate of speed. 11 The cards, when punched (each - one has an average of 16 or 17 no•ltations) are taken to uncanny ma- ; chines, which sort and count them '! at the rate of 16,000 an hour. 1 ! In order to supply all the various ■ information required, tiie 40,000.000 cards go through the machines 16 times. Details which canI not be conveniently recorded by I machine are checked off in green ; ink by hand. Once filled out, the cards must be checked and reI checked before final reports may be published.

CLUB LEADERS MEET FRIDAY I Home Economics Club Leaders Meet at Masonic Hall Friday Morning A large department store of Hie ! east wishing to enlarge its service to the community and those whom it served several years ago adnptied the slogan, “It’s smart to be j Thrifty.” Equally effective can i such slogan be when applied io the management of the individual wardrobe, says Miss Meta E. MarI tin of the Home Demonstration De Ipartment of Purdue University. I Miss Martin will be in Adams counIty for the next local leaders meet- ; ing of the Home Economics Club lon October 21. The meeting will be held at the Masonic Hall beginning promptly at 9:30 a. m. Miss Martin will demonstrate | many highlights and tricks of the fall and winter mode that can be worked by those who would be thrifty and yet in the height of fashion and good dress. She will demonstrate a long list of dollar 1 stretchers in dress. Those coming to the meeting who I wish assistance in making old frocks new have but to bring the | garments in to the garment clinic ! which will feature a part of the I days program. Recently in .hr counties where such in- etings were I held ap.'i .xlmately ,40 garments were planned for revision. Not only is the savings in wardrobe dollars a boon to most women managing family clothes, but the en-1 |richment of the wardrobe, thus (making it possible to have a better assortment of clothes a satisfaction gained. Necklines, sleeves, shoulders, waistlines, hems, backs, all these I are much in the limelight of fashion just now and all versatile in I their interpretation thus making 'them especia'ly adaptable to many I figures ami uses. They are both i fascinating and romantic and what iis mors not. t: o difficult for the lamiteur dressmaker to achieve .' witli a little direction and interpretation. Those who serve as local leaders lin the Home Economics classes | will as the need exists conduct garment clinics in the local clubs durI' ing the fall months. CHARGES MAY !

The generator charging rate should be advanced and the uattery inspected to make sure there are no weak cells that might fail when you need them most. Spark plugs also uetd adjusting for hard winter starting, and radiator hose connections should be inspected so that you will not waste anti-freeze solution or alcohol. “If the motorist checks his tires, battery, brakes, spark plugs, and radiator hose, lie can rest assured that he will have safe trouble freo winter driving.” BARGAINS Bargains in Living Room, Dining Room Suites, Mattresses and Rugs.
