That's what makes it a great game and we can watch for many more upsets in weeks to come. Indications are that Oklahoma and Michigan State will remain the favorites. o o ■ Bad accident reports on the Hoosier highways continue to pour into local and state police offices. This year is destined to be the worst in the history of highway accidents on Indiana lees and every week-end many deaths are reported. A big percentage of the mishaps could be _*voided. If you are reckless on the roadways, what can you expect from the other fellow. The sad thing is that these accidents affect each of us in higher insurance rates; broken automobiles and costly delays.

The Post Office department has issued a request that all persons planning to send Christmas packages to service men stationed overseas have their packages in the Post Office by November 15. This request is made so that there will be ample time for delivery. It is a good sensible request and is made so none of our servicemen will be disappointed on Christmas day. You are urged to comply. Remember November 15 is the deadline for overseas Christmas packages. o o AU Decatur will welcome Ronald Regan, prominent movie and television personality, who will spend Tuesday here as a guest of the Decatur plants of General Electric. A full program has been planned for the famous actor culminating with a dinner in his honor at the Youth and Community Center to be attended by members of the Chamber of Commerce, Rotary Club and Lions club and their wives. We are sure that the visit of'Mr. Regan will be of mutual benefit as he rubs shoulders with splendid type of working men and women at General Electric; sees the modern operation of a great plant and visits other points of interest in the finest little city in the nation. We sincerely hope that Mr. Regan’s visit will be a pleasant one filled with memories of a day always to be cherished. o Newspapers and magazines are full of accounts of juvenile delinquency in many places throughout the country. We should be thankful that here in Adams county we have a minimum. A stern but understanding Court, a Youth Center, excellent schools, a good attendance officer and a high percapita of young people attendance at Church and Sunday . school are a few of the reasons for our community being almost void of juvenile crime. We -are fortunate, -but It isn't just a hap-pen-so. Our young people love good clean fun but they don’t countenance rowdyism and soon the roughnecks seek more fertile fields. We all contribute to this fine state of affairs of which we should be proud. Adult delinquency is also pretty much absent here.

CHAPTER 30 EMOTION can be complex, a wildly gushing stream, or frozen at its source and tretd tn thrall. It was that way with Narcissa Neighbors back in Indiana nad warned hereof the danger of Indian attack if’she dared fate by coming to this outpost of civilization. Such warnings she had brushed lightly aside, assured by Emil Jacobsen in a letter that there was no real threaL —She was frightened now, a lone hostage in the midst of enemies, but not terrified. Dimly she sensed that these Indians among whom she was prisoned were a savage pack, but a pack held in leash. They fretted at restraint, and the younger bucks, imaginations stimulated by the war paint they had applied, were becoming each day harder for the chiefs to control. But they had not yet broken bounds, beyond this one act of making her a prisoner, and that seemed to be the responsibility of the white man. So far, she had been treated well enough, guarded constantly by squaws who looked as though they would enjoy scratching and clawing, but who, like the others, were awaiting a signal yet to be given. It was a nightmare, but still at the stage of oppressive, creeping evil — not yet to the point where one awakens screaming madly. She nad walked to the edge of the lake, since the camp was on both sides of her, and no one appeared to pay much attention to where she wandered. Now she peered at nerseii in the clear waters, wishing for a comb, wondering if it would be better to braid her hair. Her thoughts were interrupted by a footstep, and she about to see Oates approaching, though It jjook a second look to be sure. ” He was bare to the waist, as were most of the braves, face and chest smeared and painted, and somehow him it appeared twice as horrible as on those to whom it was native. His face twisted in what the paint made a caricature of a smile as he stopped and surveyed her. ..-.l “Pretty country, here,” he said, intending ft to be pleasant ‘T guess it’s as new to you—all of this—as it is to me." Understanding came to Narcissa. “You're that gun-runner who got away from the post the other night,” she said. “That’s me," Oates agreed, and his next words showed that, in Ms way, he too was something of a philosopher.

“That seemed like a mighty . bad break at the time, getting caught. But the way it’s workin' out, maybe it's a lucky thing. Tm a big man here now. It could maybe be the same for you.” “What do you mean?” “Well, it was kind of a mistake, our kidnapin' you. We were after the major’s sister. You both rode white horses —and I hadn't ever had a good look at her, and none at you. That could seem like a bad break for you, too.” “Are you trying to tell mettiat there’s anything good about it?” “There can be,” he said easily. "When we get ready, we’ll sweep this country as clean of whites as it was before Lewis and Clark had their look. And that’ll be pretty quick now." "You talk like you were an Indian!” she said scornfully. "I am. 1 tried to be a white man for quite a while, but they wouldn’t give me a chance. Finally they chased me here. But that’s a lucky break, for 1 like it here, and I’m an Indian, all right, from now on. Just as much as any of them.” “You’re a renegade!" Oates shrugged. “Call it what you like," he said. "Words don't make any difference. What I'm tryin' to tell you is that you're lucky to be here, and that I like you. The other way, you wouldn't have stood any chance, when the svEeep starts. But if you start in, right now, treatin' me nice, maybe it'll turn out to be the best piece of tuck you ever had." . • “It you come any closer, one step," Narcissa said distinctly, “I’ll scream. And 1 seem to be under the protection oi the chief! He at least is what he pretends to be. and no renegade.” > Oates scowled. It hadn’t been his notion, but Man Walks Alone had decreed that, so long as she was held as a hostage, she was to be well treated, and that included everyone alike. Suclj Ideas sounded strange, voiced by a red Indian who was getting ready to lead his people in a war of extermination against the whites. They’d already stepped beyond the pale in making her a prisoner. There should tie no restrictions on conduct—particularly his own—from here on out. , - Maybe it was such Meas that made him a renegade. Oates flushed darkly at the thought, and strode off, angrily. He was 1 discovering that there were codes ; by which these people lived,* aIM ’ if they differed from the code of

Driver's Licenses Ordered Suspended The state bureau ot motor vehicles has announced suspension of driver’s licenses for two Deeatur residents. They are: Guadalupe Garrza, from Aug. 27, 1956 to Feb. 27, 1957. for leaving the scene of an accident, and Melverd R. Ladd, from July 7, 1956 to July 7, 1957, for drunk driving. O : i Household Scrapbook BY ROBERTA LEE O — O Custard To prevent custard from curdling, place the custard cups in a pan half filled with cold water instead of hot water. The custard will heat more gradually, will be firm, and without a drop of whey. Brightening Leather The leather seats of chairs may be brightened by rubbing them with a good furniture polish and a woolen cloth, and then polishing with a dry cloth. Shiny Dishes Add soda to the dish water and it will give a nice shiny finish to the dishes. This will also brighten the tinware.

’ the white man, they were Just as ]L binding, perhaps more so. — Though the real trouble, be i" knew by now, was that Man I Walks Alone wasn’t the boss. He was taking orders from Dolf Kinney, awaiting Kinney's word to set his warriors loose. It wouldn't > be long to the showdown, and it would be between himself and Kinney, He’d built himself up considerably in the short time he’d been here, but that would be the test Kinney would be eager for his blood. And Kinney still controlled the chief. It would be touch and go. There was a rustling in the brush, here at the edge of the encampment Red leaves flamed, but no more so than the mouth of Running Fawn as he swung around and saw her. Her dark eyes blazed, taunting, angry, and she stepped lightly away as he moved quickly toward her. "Keep away!" she warned, and for an instant he saw the gleam of a knife before it was hidden. "Why should I?" he asked. “You were waiting <tor me!” That was obviously true, but he was beginning to understand that she was as unpredictable as her white-skinned sisters. And the one thing that he had learned for sure was that you never could be sure about a woman. “So does the puma lie in wait for the deer to approach!” she mocked. "where did you learn to talk English like that?” Oates demanded. "You’re more Indian than anyone else in this whole bunch, but you sure talk good English.” The reference seemed to please her, for she gave him a quick smile. "You’re right; I am more Indian than anyone else!" she agreed. “I’m all Indian, and 1 hate the whites. I—” "That ought to make you like me. So do I!” “Because they’d hang you- if they could catch you!” she taunted. "A renegade is not an Indian, not a white! But you asked where 1 learned to speak English. 1 was taught for three years at the mission school of the Black Robes.” "Don’t appear like you took to their religion." . "I’m an Indian," she reminded him again, fiercely, theh her mood changed swiftly. “But you bring guns, you give good advice to my father. He is a great chief, yet he bends to the will of one white man, and that I hate!" (To Be Oontinuedl
