HOME BOYS i LOSE FIRST B. B. GAME Milford Won Opening Match, 20 to 12 Last Friday. The basketball season started out discouragingly for Syracuse, Friday evening, when the home team was defeated by MiHord. 20 to 12. Syracuse’s second team had won the preliminary, 22 to 9, Stucky, Smith, Doll, Coy and Bitner started the main event of the evening. But Milford took the hall from the tip off and Estep made a basket. In a few moments a foul called on Smith, Estep failed to score. Syracuse missed numerous shots at their basket, and then a foul was called on Doll and Estep scored two free throw chances. Dewart failed to score a free throw on a foul called on Coy, but Estep scored another basket, and Syracuse took time out with the score 6 to 0. From the tip off, Estep got the ball again, and scored another bask- : et. Beck was sent into the game for Smith. Phend scored a free chance on a foul called on Stucky, then Stucky had a free throw chance and missed. The first quarter ended 9 to 0, Milford. Bitner made Syracuse’s first basket at the start of the second quarter, but this was quickly followed by Phend’s basket for Milford. Beck scored another for Syracuse and Milford a basket and free throw. A foul was called on Bushong but Bitner missed his free throw chance. The ball was in plsg most of the time near Syracuse’s basket, but it seemed determined not to drop through. Then came the referee’s whistle: Stucky scored a free throw on Estep; Estep scored one on Coy; Bitner missed his chance on another foul called -on Estep; Beck misted * 'OMt-A» r ~va» --vajidil oa ■HhMRrMBHP’ ‘ scored one on Dewart; then DaN scored one on Bushong. The half ended with free throws bringing Syracuse's score to 7, Milford 15. Syracuse missed four out of 7 free throw tries during the first half of the game. Free throws scored by either team set those of the crowd who had not kept up on basketball rules, wondering, as a free throw scored no 1 longer sends the ball back to eenter for the jump ball, but the ball goes to the opposite team, on the bound- J ary line beneath the basket. Stucky, Bitner, Doll Beck and Coy I started the second half for Syracuse. A foul caßed on Bushong meant four against him and he was removed from the game and Zimmerman sent in, for Milford. Bsck failed to score the free throw, and Stucky missed a chaaew at one, called beesuee Tim* mernMMt fai led to report to the referee on coming into the game. At this point Syracuse took time out and clustered in a circle resembling the League of Nation* discussing what’to do to Mussolini. When Milford had the ball, with the lead they had. the team kept it to kill time, and to keep it out of Syracuse’s hands. It seemed impostobto for the heme boys to break thia up, for minutes at • tone. Coy mimed two free throw chances on a foul caitod on Thompoen, Bitner missed one and scored one free throw on a foul called on Haab, th* first score m*de in Um second half.

ROAD 13 MAYBE FEDERAL HIGHWAY ! To Let Contract on Building From Road 30 to No. Webster Nov. 15; Route to No. 6 Not Decided. According to best reports obtainable at press time, state highway 13 is to be made into a federal highway. the shortest road from. Indianapolis to Grand Rapids, Mich. Federal money ailowed to Indiana, is to be used to make this a federal highway, it is reported. The strip of state road 13 from U. S. 30 to North Webster was considered the worst section of it, and Milo Strombeck of North Webster and W. H. Rinebolt of Kendallville, representing th* Indiana highway commission, bought a right of way through farms from North Webster to Road 30 to straighten Road 13, by building a new one. Nothing has been done about road 13 from North Webster to road 6, since the survey last summer made from the former site of the Vawter Park school, through Syracuse, according to Mr. Strombeck. Mr. Rinebolt went to Indianapolis the first of this week to confer with the state highway commission concerning road 13 from North Webster to U. S. road 30. The contract is to be let Nov. 15. The road from North Webster to U. S. 30 will pass through the farms of Luther Strombeck, Sam Davis, Wm. Dorsey, Henry Willis, Leander Garber, Wes Mock, Mrs. William Wright, Henry McDivett, Irve White, Edgell Life Insurance Co., Alva Banning, Dr. Kuhn, M. Harmon, Mrs. Prank Mensy, Albert Lifer, Goerge Belch, Mrs. Charles Grissom, Dell Orr, Pierce Kilpatrick, John Mackeson. The road is to be 80 feet wide. The main street of North Webster is 38 feet wide and the state regulations for No. 13 through this town call for 36 feet, so that ft may not be necessary to make in the width there. mK But in Pierceton it will b® necessary to move many iBHMENLAteK light poles to widen th* highway. —-——X., i Q ■ - The road is likely to g* through Pierceton to North Manchester According to . Jesse Shock, who talked with Mr. Rinebold after his return from Indianapolis, no announcement has been made as to the route through Syracuse, but one of the- two surveys will .be followed from the south side of the lake; either north on Huntington street to cut off to the right at Marion Bushong’s, through part of Jesse F Shock property, and Bachman’s and Mrs. Tounce’s, to join with th* present 13 near Cranberry Hill, and reach road 6; or the other route sureyed through town was .turn to Main street from Huntington at the bank corner, and follow the present 11, cutting through the hills at Hoopingarner’s and Bachman’s, and through pert of Mrs. Younce’s property. No mention was made of any route having been surveyed on Lak* street.
