Crown Point News

Happenings of a Day in Lake County's Lively Capital

SHUCKS

From the Diary 'of Si. Lence

It was all right to Joke about Crown Point In the old days, but now since It ha street car connections with Gary It Is rather dignified and you have to be careful. Heard by Rube. Sure, 'tis. Y hev t' hev sum dignity et one end o' th' line, ennyway. A feller's Income makes him wonder what th' outcome'!! be nowadays. Great Interest centers in the doubleheader ball frame with Hammond tomorrow at Erie P.irk, when the tallenders of the league meet the leaders In two crucial contests for supremacy. A feeling of confidence, however, is apparent here as Crown Point always was a Jlnxf for Hammond when the locals were playing any kind of ball at all. Hennlng and Anderson will probably do the pitching honors for the local team against the much-touted Bergman of the present league leaders. The first game will be called

at 1:15 p. m. and only an Interval of ten minutes will elapse before starting the second contest. Big crowds from Hammond and elsewhere In the county are expected to attend this game. Crown Point will present practically the same lineup that beat Laporte to a standstill last week, and the management is expected to carry home the bacon for both games. It Is said that at least 75 per cent of the stockholders of the Northwestern Telephone company are willing to se'.l their stock to the Chicago Telephone company, which has made over-

tr-Js to them Ar Its purcise re(ntly. The vwchange will probably oome under the control of tile Chicago company, whicn has always been actlce In securing grants and franchises in these parts. It is said that If the deal is made and the line comes under control of the Chicago Telephone company proper, that they will spend considerable money putting the line in the highest state of efficiency, it being a valuable feeder to their toll business here. Word comes from Florida to the ef

fect that Hal Wright, who left here

several months ago In search of health has recovered and has married a Florida girl. Intending to make his permanent home In that state.
