With the sheriffs sale today of the
effects of F. A. Norman closes a
chapter in local high finance. ="
Norman. q smooth talker with plenty
of gall" was manager of a local
firm of furniture dealers. He got a
fair salary. but not enough to back
up his ideas of business methods.
He bought a block OF building
lots in Colonial Extension. a large
motor boat; sporting goods of every
description; lumber to erect build
ings on his lot. and about anything
else he wanted. Ofcourse be never
paid for them. He found the mer-
chants. butchers. druggists. jewel
ers and about everybody else he ask
ed ready to credit him. Unpaid bills
all over town is about all he left to
remember him by.
Norman was by nature a dead
game sport. On his lots he was 60
ing TO build swimming pool for
himself and family. and a magnifi-
cent cement block house. All he
needed was the cement blocks and
had not his employees discharged
him he would doubtless have gotten
the material he wanted in the usual
way.
The saddest part OF il was that he
left a wife and several helpless little
children here among strangers with
out any means of support. But the
good. kind hearted people of VIII
liams burg did not let them suffer

AND SCHOOL.
what the Students
Are D0ilg.

William and Mary PLAYED its first
championship game in Petersburg
last Saturday afternoon with Hamp-
den-Sidney. and was defeated by a
score of 10toO. From all accounts.
our team put up a pluoky game.
and were defeated more by a run OF
hard luck than anything else.
The next championship game will
be played in Richmond with Ran
dolph- Macon College. Saturday.
November IS. All students who
can possibly make arrangements 10
do SO. should attend this game. and
do all in their power TO help the
team win this game.
Next Saturday. William and
Mary will meet the Fortress Monroe
team on the college campus. Last
year. the same team played here.
and from the result Of the game. We
venture 70 predict an interesting
game Saturday.
Practice on the tennis court is 60
ing on regularly among a few men.
All of those who expect TO enter
the race for the honor Of represent
ing the college in games with other
institutions should get busy.
The following IS taken from Tues
DAYS Times-Dispatch: William
and Mary in losing her champion
ship game on Saturday to Hampden.
Sidney puts it up to her to eithei
win from Richmond or Randolph
Macon. or else forfeit any chance tc
WIN the trophy over her siste
schools. Should Hampden- -Sidne
win from Richmond. she will ther
be regarded as an asset in the fina
settlement. The teams. from con-
Parauve scores thus far. seem to b,
well matched. with odds about evei
on the winner"
BY defeating Randolph Macol
and Richmond Colleges. then. tn
race may be so tied Up as TO max,
II necessary TO play off the tie 70
the championship. Such a thing i
by no means impossible; and so
we say that the championship cup j.
still thing not only possible bu
very probable.
