SYRACUSE - MILFORD GAME IS TOMORROW Coach Holley Deep in the Blues as Season Opens— But Milford's Stars May Be Surprised. With the opening game of the 1934 basket ball' season only one day away. Coach Holley of Syracuse is steeped in the deepest blues. “We will lose to Milford,” is his melancholy refrain. Holley says that his term is a very indefinite quality; th t it is expecting too much for a team which is rounding into shape daily as slowly as Syracuse to win from a veteran team like Milford. “Why,” he exclaimed, “the same Milford team beat Syracuse twice last year,” and they have lost only' one man, and he was not a regular He went on to say that he had been told that Milford is coming to Syracuse with the idea of having a practise game, Friday night. Four men have been definitely chosen to start the game, Friday night. They are: Searfo s, c; Bitner, f; and Jones and Osborn, guards. Coach Holley has not made up his mind as to who will start in the other forward position, but it will be either Stuckey or Doll. On the second team, Ott and Held will start as guards; and Ed Coy or Bob Strieby will jump center. Holley has three men to choose from to fill the forward position. They are Strieby, Kern and Kober. There is some basis for Holley's dark predictions, for Wednesday night at practise, Holley could not find three men who could go down the floor against two guards and coiisistently keep the ball and score. But Holley has taught them the fundamentals of the game, in spite of his dark predictions. ; Then the second team made the first string men look sick in a scrimmage. But in view of all these blues, Syracuse might upset the dope, because as Holley says, the team is an indefinite quality. As a fitting climax—the new suits, ordered for the first team to wear in this opening game, have gone astray. The trunks have arrived but there's a tracer out after the jerseys.

FEDERATED CLUB MEMBERS PROTEST

At Meeting of State Federation, Ad For Democrats and Cocktails Bring Protest. Mrs. O. C. Stoelting was a delegate to the state federation of women’s clubs tfhich met in Indianapolis, last week, and when questioned about the advertisements in that organization’s publication, The Club Woman, she submitted the following clipping from the Indianapolis Star, describing the action taken on those “ads”: J “A resolution prohibiting the solicitation or publication of political advertisements or advertisements which specify or impliedly, advocate intoxicating liquors in the club’s yearbook or magazine was passed amid a burst of applause at the annual convention of the Indiana Federation of Clubs at the Claypool hotel. “The resolution was submitted after delegates and members from all parts of the state had protested a full-page advertisement for the state Democratic party which appeared in the convention number of the Club Woman, official organ of the federation; which for the first time went into the hands of every club woman of the state. “In this same issue a smaller advertisement appeared, announcing a cocktail hour at the Indianapolis bar. “Federation Woman believe, it was pointed out, that the organization should be kept free of any political alliances because of its non-partisan-ship and because always the organization has been a staunch supporter of prohibition.” 0 TAKEN TO HOSPITAL 'Than Altland, who has been ill for several weeks, was taken to the Goshen hospital’, Tuesday afternoon for observation and treatment. Five young men went to the Goshen hospital for blood tests yesterday to see if their blood would be of the type suited for a blood transfusion for Mr. Altland. These were: Rev. J. A. Pettit, Orval Klink, Richard Call, Tod Richhart and Gerald Kline. A pint and one half of blood was taken from Rev. Pettit

4,106 BASS RAISED BY LOCAL CLUB Fingerlings Placed in Syracuse Lake by Game Warden. In spite of_the drughot, which at first caused the fear that the fish ponds would dry up, a record-break-ing hatch of fish was reared by the Wawasee Conservation Club, in the fish ponds, located on the Bavmgartner farm. When the final count was made, there were 3,103 bass, three inches long, and 1,003 bass, four inches long, making a total of 4,106 bass. For every thousand measuring three inches, when the club’s contract was made, the state agreed to pay $35; and for those measuring four inches the state agreed to pay $45 per thousand, so the club will receive approximately $l5O. On Sunday when the count was made and the fish put into Syracuse Lake, Noah Eaton said that no other club in this vicinity, for which he had counted fish, had raised this number of fingerlings. He counted fish for -15 clubs in this vicinity and in Steuben County. Most of the clubs, he said, raised about 350 bass. Many of these clubs had spent much morfey on their fish ponds, he added. Os the sum to be paid by the state to the local club, Harold Kitson will receive one half the amount as his pay for his care of the ponds. The other half will be placed in the club’s treasury. The parent bass of these fingerlings were secured by the Department of Conservation, from Lake Maxinkuckee, and donated to the club for its experiment. None of the parent bass were recovered, Whether they died from the effects of low water, whether they were caught on the sly by sotheone whqf wanted, a fish fry, or whether they were devoured by turtles is the mystery. The excellent result of the Wawasee Club’s experiment will give impetus to the conservation T department’s policy of forming clubs alf over the state to raise fish and game and do other conservation work. It proves Milton Wysong’s contention that the clubs can do more conservation work and propagation of game than the state can, and do it more cheaply. Also, as a result of the fish experiment, the members are determined that another attempt should be made to secure from the FERA an appropriation for the construction of fish rearing ponds near the power house. The plans for these ponds already have been made. Plans are also being made for cleaning the ponds on the Baumgartner place, for future use. 0 SCHUTZ TO SPEAK j IN WARSAW, NOV. 3 Raymond ■'Schutz, head of the Department of Political Science, Manchester College, will address the voters of Kosciusko county in the Warsaw Armory, Saturday, Nov. 3, at 7:30 o’clock. This will be the last Republican meeting of the campaign in this county. It wip be recalled that Professor Schutz addressed one of the graduating classes of the SyracuWm High school, on Commencement day. He has been a prominent speaker during the campaign this year; was the Republican nominee for Congress in the sth district in 1932. Recently he- has been lecturing on civic and educational topics at various points in Indiana. _O • WINTER’S COMING. The first snowfall of the season occurred Saturday evening, when big, wet Bakes came down so rapidly that they prevented windshield wipers from keeping windshields clear of snow. The wind of Monday made whitecapped waves on the lakes, and by Monday night the temperature drop caused ice to freeze on the channel, the first ice reported this season. It was stated that the temperature near the channel early Tuesday morning ’was 29 degrees. o BERKEY SUIT DISMISSED The replevin suit of Mrs. Lucile Berkey, Van Buren township, filed in circuit court last week against her husband, Dwight Berkey and others, has been dismissed on motion of the plaintiff. This was a suit in which Mrs. Berfey asked possession of a trunk alleged to have contained $1,485 in currency, plus tax
