SPark Plugs Fall Again This Time Before Danville Warriors . (Robt. Alsmeyer) Adding another to their everincreasing stripg of defeats, the Speedway Spark Plugs dropped before the withering attack of the Danville Warriors last Friday night. It was very evident that the holiday vacation was very beneficial to the local eagers, but the visitor’s ability to come through with a couple of fielders in the closing seconds of the game proved fatal to Coach Johnson’s net crew. Resplendant in their new uniforms white satin affairs trimmed in blue and gold, the Sparkplugs played basketball of a much higher caliber than they had displayed previous to the vacation. The game itself was a nip-and-tuck affair in it’s entirety and it opened with a bang when Speedway took the tip-off and Singleton stole the ball and raced the length of the floor and hit a one-hander from the corner. Immediately following this eye-opener Stevens hit a long from center-court making the score four to nothing in favor of Danville and the game was less than a minute and a half old. Phipps then chalked up the initial points for the Brown and Gold by making good on two free throws at the expense of Franklin and Stevens respectively. Workman fouled Franklin, who hit the charity tooo and McClain doubled the current addition to the Danville score by hitting a pivot shot from directly in front of the basket. After this bit of scoring, Speedway called time-out to hold a council of war. When time had been called in again, the Browfl and Gold, launched an “all out” offensive and tied up the score by virtue of C. Tremor’s rebound shot after a pivot by Workman, Jenkin’s rebound shot after a long by Phipps, and C. Tremor’s free throw at the expense of Singleton. Phipps then drove under the basket and hit a twohand short shot and Danville called time-out with the score standing at 9 to 7 in favor of Speedway and little more than one minute remaining in the first quarter. In the final minute there was quite a bit of very fast scrimmaging, but no score was made by either side, thus leaving the score at the end of the first quarter, still 9 to 7 in

‘Shoot the Rapids’ You haven’t “done the town” on a visit to Montreal unless you’ve “shot the rapids” at Laehine, a few miles down the St. Lawrence river. LaSalle, when he first discovered the turbulent rapids, thought he had arrived at the gateway to China and called it "La Chine.” The town of Laehine was the scene of one of the bloodiest of Indian raids August 5, 1689, when 66 men, women and children died or disappeared after an Iroquois raid.

Due to the recent series of house burglaries in Speedway City, we ask that all citizens cooperate in the prevention of these. There have been five homes entered in Speedway during the past two weeks. These entries have occurred in the early evening, sometime.. between dark and nine o’clock. We ask anyone seeing a strange or suspicious person in his neighborhood to call the police immediately or to follow this person. If he enters a car, he sure to get his license number. If you are going to be away from home for the evening, it is suggested that you notify your neighbor, or better still, that you leave a light burning. This type of thief does not operate where there is light. Information received from anyone will be held confidential. —Signed: Harry Bernhardt. Town Marshall, Telephone Bel. 3883. —Robert A.
