Bowling League Competition, World Series, Football Tilts On Tap For Local Sportsmen With the Full season already a matter of record, local sportsmen have plenty of interesting events in store for them. Of course, the rapidly approaching autumn daaate, the World Bailei takes the spotlight, it gets underway October 2, and Greeneastle and Putnam county fans will be glued to their radio receiving sets until the final out of the final game has been broadcast. Some fortunate few in this community will be the proud possessors of ducats end will witness the tilts, but the majority of us will have
to take the announcer’s word for it. The ^xitball season is also underway as several Hoosier schools push-

Voncastle There are mote “firsts” in the latest “Blondie" comedy than in any of tlie five preceding pictures in the
series,
Titl.d “Blondie Has Servant Trouble,” it takes Penny Singleton. Arthur I.ake, Larry “Baby Dumpling’’ Simms and Daisy, the prize pooch, on a merry-go-round of novelty.

It is the first time that Lake, as Dagwood Bumstead, asserts his authority as head of th? house. It is the first time that Dithers, the boss, proves human. It is the first time that Lake lets his hair down (literally) in an action sequence. The famous Dagwood “horns’’ couldn't take it. Chateau A hard-fighting metropolitan editor and a dazzling girl reporter swing into action and bring to hay i modern Jekyll and Hyde in the breath-taking mystery, “News Is Made At Night,” a 20tn Century-Fox release, which op ms Wednesday and Thursday at the Chateau Theatre. Murder and revenge keep no hours as Preston Foster, a stop-at-nothing editor, and Lynn Bari, the daring reporter. hurl themselves at the twofold task of freeing a man innocently sentenced to death, and discovering .he master mind that has victimized a nation. It’s headline news, sensational and incredible, as the editor and his girl reporter tear the mask of respectability from a master swindler supposedly dead for 18 years and reveal a trail of murder and blackmail.

ed off the lid last weekend in college circles and Indiana high school teams have been performing on the gridiron for the past two weeks. Local interest this Saturday will be centered on DePauw as the Tiger eleven makes its 1940 debut at Hanover. Followers of Coach Gaumy Neal and his squad remember thi 7 to 6 upset handed the Old Gold last year, it being by the way, the first lime a Hanover outfit had defeated DePauw in :!8 years. The Methodist mentor is fervently hoping that history won't repeat a.ul give the opposition two victories in a row.

Another sport of interest to many Greeneastle men is bowling. It is planned to have league teams at the university alleys again this | winter and competition is expected j to start within the next two weeks. It is believed that there will be I several five-man organizations. Jake i Eitel has his championship team of last season intact. Dick Sandy is getting a squad together and there will probably be teams from the Zinc Mill, the DePauw maintenance depar 1 ment, the Elks Club, the American Legion, Lone Star cement company and maybe the Kiwanis and Rotary clubs. Donovan C. Moffett, better known as “Tubby” in these parts, DePauw s athletic director, stated today that the business men will have use of the alleys each Monday and Wednesday night from 8 p. m. on until closing time. It is hoped to get this recreational sport to going the first week in October.

Brazil’s gridders took it on the chin again last week when Shortridge high school of Indianapolis pulverized the Bricks, 35 to 0. II we remember correctly Crawfordsville swamped Brazil, 28 to 0 the week before. We’ll bet Brick fans are hoping that a slow start w’U mean a strong finish or something to that effect.
W. E. Bailsman, who coached Greeneastle football and basketball teams ve : y successfully ten years ago, apparently has a pretty good squad of huskies up at Hennselea-. His proteges smeared Michigan City, 18 to 6, in a high school gridiron contest.
Sullivan overwhelmed Bicknell, 50 to 0; Clinton shaded Washington of East Chicago, 7 to 0, and Garfield of Terre Haute nosed out Linton, 2 to 0. in other Wabash Valley games of interest last weekend.
In the Indiana colleges, Butler downed St. Joseph’s 27 to 6, which was more or less expected: the Rose Poly Engineers g: abbed a 9-7 battle from Wabash, and Cincinnaii humbled Hanover, DePauw’s opponent thia week, to the tune of 45 to 0. Indiana State and Louisville might as well have not played as their game ended in a scoreless tie.

With the Cincinnati Reds having 'he National League baseball pennant race all tied up and taker, home, it is still a question of whether Detroit, Cleveland or the New York Yankees will emerge the victor in the American League champlonahip scramble. Your guess is as good as anybody’s. One day it looks like Cleveland; the next like Detroit, and we still maintain that the B onx Bombers have a slight chance of meeting Cincinnati In the World Series.

The Brazil Times reported that the Brazil golfers who came to this city last Sunday and were shut-out by the local linksmen, "had a nice ride to and from Greeneastle." We thought they were sort of "taken fol a ride" while they were here. Anyi way, everyone had a good time and the Greeneastle men are planning
This column congratulates Bob Agnew on winning the singles championship in the South Central Conference tennis tourney last Saturday at Indianapolis. Bob took his adversaries in stride, defeating the best that ShelbyviUe, Greensburg, Connersville and Washington high school (Indpls.) could offer. Grcencastle’s ace racquet wielder becomes the No. I Conference performer for his second consecutive yea'. - hut omy after a lot of hard work, natural ability and diligent practice. Again we say, congrats to the Champ!
We wish to thank the coaches over the county who have sent in theii high school basketball scheduler There are still a few missing, however, and we will appreciate it ve“y much if these are received within the next few days.

Belle Union High School softball team was host to Fillmore last Friday afternoon in what proved to be the thriller of the season ending in a score of 7 to 5, in favor of Fillmore. All of Fillmore’s runs were tallied in the first and second Innings while Belle Union collected their runs evenly throughout the game. Neier, Belle Union and Tharp and Arnold of Fillmore led the field in hitting while the pitchers kept the spectators interested in a battle of hurling by Sechman of Fillmore and Moser of Belle Union who was relieved in the third inning. Moser still participating in the game in the outfield, did some of the most spectacular fielding of the season so far. Also a good specimen of cooperation was nroduced by the rest of the players >1' both Fillmore and Belle Union.
