Christmas Trouble By Mary Hannah It was shortly after the turn of the century. My trade was that of a drummer. Today you would call me a salesman. My territory was determined by fancy and. sometimes. by a weatherbeaten horse named Napoleon. Whichever fork of the road suited Napoleon, suited me. Napoleon huffed and puffed along, pulling a wagon load of pots and pans ami assented dry goods. I tot him go his way untfi we came to a Lane that led toward a promising farm house. I had teamed, thn-ugh the years, to make it my business to let darkness catch me only in the vicinity of some sort of habitat which offered the promise of warmth and comfort for the passing of night. Trouble On this particular occasion, which just happened to be Christmas Eve, I was in unfamiliar territory, somewhere in southern Mississippi. A broken wagon axle had brought Napoleon to a sudden, groaning halt 1 set the animal free while I set about seeing u hat I could do to make repairs. As you may imagine, it took me a long time, even though I hurried as fast as I could, spurred on by I dark and ominous skies that threatened — en promised a siege of; bad weather. When I had finished with the job, — you guessed it — Napoleon was gone. He was nowhere in sight I rap up the road, shouting, whistling, until I was forced to sit, and rest. I returned to the wagon and looked in the forest on each side of the road. But. Napoleon was gone — and the rain which began slowly at first, came now in tor- ' rential fashion. Shelter I hastily pulled a tarpaulin over my wares, and myself. For a time. : I w’as dry and warm. Then water ; seeped around the edges of the tarpaulin ... a trickle or two at first, then a steady Stream, down the side boards and across the wagon bed until I was thoroughly wet. It was an hour or two before dark «hen I decided to took up the road for help or assistance, knowing fun well it might be 10 or 15 miles to the nearest sign of civilization. I had not gone far when I met him. He was an old fellow, whitebearded and dressed in tattered clothing, ambling toward me as if it were the brightest day in May. At his heeh. following nonchalantly, a very nondescript nmle. “My name is Karl,” he said. “And my friend, here, is Dancer.” “H lto,” I said. “Have you seen a horse up ahead'.’ ” “Not horse, nor human, for miles. Dancer and me. we’re just headed home.” “I need help.” I pleaded. “Shelter for the night, or I’ll buy your mule. I have a wagon toad of 'supplies and ...” “Dancer will gladly help. But he’s not for sale. He is much too valuable to me.” “Then, you’l go with me to the next house or town?” “Not I- I have things to do. Dancer wiU take you. Just set him free when you are there. He will come back to me.” One learns, as they sety, to never took a gift mule in the mouth. I hitched up Dancer, bid farewell to old Karl and, after he refused any compensation, started again up the road. When I reached the next community, Napoleon was waiting patiently. The moment I set Dancer free, off he was, back along the road we had just traveled. Maybe there’s nothing unusual about my story. Except for the fact

Syracuse - Concord By Tom Mullins Although the Yellow Jackets showed improvement over previous games, they dropped their fifth \ consecutive game of the season in a thrilling overtime to a tough Concord squad by a score of 58-56. In the first quarter the Yellow Jackets took a quick lead and led by six going into the second quarter. The second and third quarters were all even as the Yellow Jackets led by six at the end of each. In’ the fourth quarter, however, the■ Minutemen from Concord put on an effective press which helped them! fight back to a tie at the end of I regulation play. In the overtime the Yrflow Jackets could come up with only one basket while the Minutemen notched two. thus producing , the final results. Both teams hit 24 field goals but from the free throw* line Concord i hit 10 of 22 for 45 per cent while the Yellow Jackets got eight out of 15 I for 53 per cent. The Yellow Jackets out-rebounded Concord 45-41 but : committed 18 errors to only five for the Minutemen. Sophomore Dave Webster again led the Yellow Jackets in scoring with 20 points on 10 field goals. He was followed by Rob Clevenger with 15 as Clevenger played in his first game this year after an in- , jury. Also in double figures for the Yellow Jackets was Greg Smith j with 13.

Milford - South Whitley Saturday night on the Syracuse hardwood the Milfood Trojans faced the South Whitley* Bulldogs and were defeated by a score of 74-56. Hie first half of play was controlled by the Trojans, who at the end of the second quarter led by five points. This lead was quick to disappear and the Bulldogs pulled out and stayed in front of the Trojans the entire second half of play. The Bulldogs had four players in double figures. Zorger led with 27 points. He was followed by Shilling who contributed 16 points and by Roberts and Swing who both netted that no one in the community bad ever heard or seen an old man fitting Kart s description. And, in the many later years I traveled the same location, I could never discover or learn anything about him. I wonder if he had something to do with the Spirit of Christmas.
