LOOKED LIKE SILVER COINS
Indianapolis Postal Service Has Trouble With Gold Pieces "Plated"
 With Metal Polish.

In the days when countertfeiters used to gild 25-cent pieces and nick els and pass them off as gold coins, there was frequently considerable trouble over a genuine coin that "was not what it seemed" In the Indianapolis postal service recently there was little extra work on ac- count of two gold pieces, which turned up with the appearance of silver coins. These had been taken ill at the postoffice from a resident of the city, who explained that his wife had been carrying the cons--a five and a ten dollar piece-in her purse together with a small bottle of metal polish, which was principally mercury. The bottle had become broken in the purse, he explained, and the gold coin was thus ''plated. ' The money was accepted, but was turned back on the postoffice by a bank, which refused to credit the postoffice with the money. The serv- ices of Capt. Tom Halls of the United States secret service then be- came necessary. The secret service man, after visit to a drug store, brought back the coins, and Assist ant Postmaster Rathbone, taking the money again, exclaimed: "Well, she looks like real government money again all right"

PRESCOTT GIRLS
 EASILY DEFEATED

The Arkansas High School girls defeated the Prescott team in a one-sided game of basket ball this afternoon at the Ark ansas gymnasium. The Arkan, sas gills got an early start which they maintained all dur ing the game, and showed the re- suits of the training by Coach Anderson, A very small crowd witnessed the game. The fea- lures were the field goals thrown by Misses Pearl Smith and Valerie Hudges for Ark ansas, while the scores of the Prescott team were all made by Miss Gladys Greeson on fouls. The Arkansas girls displayed ex- cellent team work as they sue ceeded in keeping their oppon. ents from making single field goal.
 During the intervals the crowd was entertained by Yellmaster George Reid and his chorus of high school boys, who gave all the high school yells. When the whistle blew and the score add ed it stood just 35 to 6 in favor of Arkansas.
