WHO WAS IT SAID, “A HORSE, MY KINGDOM FOR A HORSE”-ANjf BUGGY?
Mrs. Isabel Grieger says she thinks .there’s something to be said for the scorned “horse and buggy” days. Especially this kind of weather. But ahe thinks evexgr horse should be equipped with a buggy when she goes for a ride. Last Friday morning, Mrs. Grieger drove to town from her home in Maxwelton Manor, bringing her nephew Dial Rogers to work. The wind the night before had caused snow to drift across the road leading to her home In Maxwelton Manor, from the Main road. So Dial told her, when she started back from town, that he would phone in 15 minutes, and if no one answered, he’d know her car *was stalled in the dhow and he would send some one after her. He telephoned, no one answered, and Dial asked Eugene Holloway to drive over to Maxwelton, to find what the trouble was. Holloway discovered Mrs. Grieger’s car stalled just inside the gttes of Maxwelton, on the rise in the road .there. He couldn’t pass her machine, but took her from her car back to Clee Hibschman’s farmhouse not far away, to borrow a horse. Because Mrs. Grieger had to get home. She had left the furnace “open” on firing up before leaving the house. She had ovendept, and Mrs. Grieger hadn’t taken time to dress before starting drive to town. She had just slipped her fur coat over her nightdress, and had worn her bedroom slippers. Mr. Hibschman was not at home when they arrived at his house, he had the teum and was putting up ice, but Mrs. % Hibschman said that their son Leonard was at the barn SYRACUSE WILL i PLAY BEAVER DAM Drawings Made for County Tournament, Saturday; Local Boys' First Game is Evening of Jan. 33.

and there was a horse there. It was blind. But it was pressed into service. 1 Mrs. Grieger had never seen an animal so high; They parked it | beside the porCh of Hibschmam’s ’ house, and climbing on a chair on ‘the porch, Mis. f rieger managed to mount astride the horse. Leonard H mounted in front of Mrs. Grieger, to steer this make of “car,” ’and Mis. Grieger said she put both arms around him iand held tight tet keep from sliding | off the horse. She said she was v , picture, her nigmdress pulled up to show her bare legs, as she sat on the horse, and her fur coat streamed out behind, like Ichabod Crane’s coat did. She said th it Leonard explained to her that the horse wouldn’t walk, it only trotted. Mis. Grieger dk;d when they passed the stalled car she couldn’t believe she was so high in the air, that she could look down on it that way. When they arrived at her home, too much laughter, eold, dizziness from the height, and one thing another prevented Mrs. Grieger demounting according to Emily Post or Earl Sande or whoever is an authority on that. It was necessary for young Hibschman to procure a stepladder from Mrs. Grieger’s garage, and hold this against the horse, for Mrs. Grieger to use in dismounting. And just when she was going down the ladder, Mrs. Grieger said, her nightdress caught on the top of the ladder and she tripped, and she and the ladder both fell. She escaped injury except she had to recover from the ride on the horse, as this “model” didn’t have elliptical compensating springs. -4 - | SECTIONALS TO BE PLAYED MAIL S, 6,7 The sectional tournament in which the 14 Kosciusko teams will compete will ba held at Warsaw, on March 5,6, 7.

Judge Royce, hearing the case of the town vs Mrs. Cleeland for malicious trespass, threw the case out on a technicality, claiming the description of the property on which iUwas claimed she trespassed was not clear enough, not that there was an error in the description, but that there was a lack of description of the property.

HOME TEAM WINNER OF CLOSE GAME Defeats Mentone by One Point; Score Worried Rooters. In an exciting, closely scored game, Syracuse managed to win from Mentone, Friday evening, in the local gym, 27 to 26. How close the game was, can be seen by comparing the scores by quarters. At the end of the first quarter it was: Syracuse, 8; Mentone 7; at the end of the half, Mentone, 18, Syracuse 12; at the end of the third quarter, Syracuse 23, Mentone 22. ? The game was marked by each side making a burst of scoring, Mentone piling up the count in the second quarter, and Syraqpse in the third quarter. The -game started with Doll making the first basket. Then Elick of Mentone tied the score with a basket; Stucky shot three field goals in succession, giving Syracuse a lead of 8 to 2. Underhill,. considered one of the best players in the county, made a free throw, one field goal and Cook ended the scoring of the period, making it 8 to 7 at the end of the first period. The second quarter, Syracuse could not get going. Mentone made seven points before Syracuse scored again. Bitner then shot his only field goal of the evening. The score was 14 to 10. Stucky sank another one, the last scoring Syracuse did in this period, while Mentone made four more points, making the score 18 to 12. During the time between halves, Coach Holly must have put new life into the Syracuse boys because they came on the floor and fairly swept | °ppo s *t* on aside, making nine quarter, while Mentone made but four. With the score 23 to 22 at the sfart of the final quarter, both teams were over-anxious to score, and missed many opportunities. Syracuse made four free throws good, the only scores which they made during the quarter, while Mentone scored two free throws and one field goal, so the scoring was even, but Syracuse won by the one point lead of the third quarter. Syracuse scored five out of 9 free throw opportunities. Scores made by Syracuse were: FG FT P PTS Stucky 4 3 1 11 Beck 110 3 Coy . 0 0 2 0.
