Coatesville news

by Joe Davidson

Mr. Albert Hubble has recently returned home after a stay in the Putnam County Hospital. Albert has tended and produced a fine garden on Water Street. As long as this man is able he works. Cascade had a football game at the home field Friday evening where the squad was host to Ladoga. The boys from Montgomery County feathered into the Cadets and at the halfway period had them tied 12-12. With the start of the last half the Cadets opened up a passing and ground attack with Little, Stein and Cooper carrying the ball that the Ladoga team could not hold. Cooper carried the ball over the goal line four times for Cascade, Little for one touchdown and Stein for one. The final count was Cadets 37 and Ladoga 19. On September 27 the Avon Orioles invade Cascade and this should be a rip-roaring game. The cross-country team at Cascade had three wins and one loss the past week. Eminence and Greencastle were defeated. There was a seven point loss to the Clovers and the Danville Warriors were out run by the close score of 26-29. Miss Frankie Dye of Detroit has been a week end guest at the Jack Battroff home. Miss Dye comes on a visit about twice a year and enjoys the food and the hospitality of her hosts. It is pleasant to get away from a position she has held for years and delight in peace and quiet and friendliness of a country home. Master Joey Johnson of Plainfield, grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Davidson celebrated his eighth birthday Sunday evening. A dinner in his honor was enjoyed by parents, grandparents and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Davidson with her brother, Mr. Henry Harbison who had driven up from Bloomington, Ind. Autumn started Sunday and already one can tell that things in nature are getting ready for the colder days to come. Leaves on maple and sumac are turning on trees here and there. Corn and beans are maturing and pumpkins and squash in the gardens are now arrayed in orange. Grass cutting is tapering off while leaf raking and burning are starting. Autumn is a beautiful word that fits a most beautiful season for color and plenty all over our great land. The following friends and relatives have been callers recently at the home of Mrs. Edna Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Lois Crowe and Mrs. Helen Jones of Greencastle and Mrs. Bettie Shoemaker and Mrs. Edna Duncan of Fillmore. Trucks are now rolling to the Coatesville Elevator loaded with the new bean crop. The first load to come into town was Sept. 13. The gentleman who brought it was Charles Nichols who lives west of town. Woody Darnall at the elevator stated that the season was a bit early to predict what the yields might run over the country but so far they had been above normal trends and the quality of the beans was fair. Mr. Earl Malicoat of Amo passed away Sunday morning after an extended illness. His body was brought to the Weaver Funeral Home where it remained until Wednesday and was then taken to the Amo Baptist Church for services. Burial was in the Coatesville Cemetery. This good father and citizen was 66 years of age. He leaves his wife, Sylvania. Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Miller of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., were guests of Mr. and Mrs. Oral McCammack one day last week. Mrs. Mabel Davidson received a surprise letter Wednesday morning. The lady writer stated that in 1928 while she was going to school to Mrs. Davidson she misappropriated something like ten dollars given her to pay for school supplies. She stated,“I have never forgotten this debt” and in the letter was a check for that amount. The letter ended: “Forgive me,” and her name was signed. For several years a number of Coatesville men have caught . the fever to go fishing at this time of the year and drive to Lake Osakis in Minnesota for a week or ten days of angling from boat and dock. Some take their wives along who enjoy the sport, as much as the men. All lead a rather rough and ready camp life on bacon, eggs, fish and provisions taken from home and enjoy everything. Some years they find the fishing good, other years poor, depending much on weather conditions but no one ever seems to regret making the trip. Talk about town is that a number will start the trip north in the next week or so. While Mrs. Mabel Davidson was shopping in Indiana-

polis Thursday she happened to meet a former Coatesville neighbor, Mrs. Ella Gambold. During their conversation Mrs. Gambold told of her trip by plane she had made to Boston this summer to pay a visit to kinsmen and on her arrival home at the airport in Indianapolis she was informed that her home had been buglarized during her absence. Her big T.V. set, a radio, and numerouse small articles were taken. She was compensated with insurance for a part of her loss. Mrs. Gambold is a church worker, is interested in food books, club work and being a good neighbor though she is close to ninety years. This true story is of a man who once upon a time existed in a small town that had gone modern enough to build a new high school

and elementary building. He was “agin it.” He had little use for folks with higher education and according to his figures it would be foolish to pay a teacher more than a dollar sixty a day. Girls and young women who did not wear skirts as long as his aged wife should be looked upon as suspicious characters. To his thinking heaven would exist for a long period without over population for only the members of his church would be admitted by the good St. Peter. He never made friends with any child and he had only contempt for teen agers for they were all smart alecs. A night came when the high school basketball team had ended a practice and were taking their showers and ready to go home. A big country lad came in to beg a ride home and brought the news

“Old Nate died a while ago,”’ he said. After a minute of silence one of the players asked, “Had he ever lived?” Club News BUENOS AIRES (UPI) — A group of 16 men who had been meeting Informally for years at a big annual feast now have established the “We Eat Like Pigs Club.” However, Juan Cessio Roca. club president, insists none of the members is fat. School at Sea UNITED NATIONS <UPI> — About 45,000 British young people went to school at sea on 56 educational cruises in 1967, according to the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization < UNESCO). Some local educational authorities now charter a ship regularly for pupils’ use.
