Among the new boarding STU
dents the following are from
Fulton county: Cristabel Lamber-
son, of Hustontown; Reba Charl-
ton, of Warfordsburg, and Clyde
Barnhart, of Buck Valley. Mr..
Barnhart is noted for his athletic
ability.
Ada Lehman, Glenn Lehman,
Vernon Wink and Dorothy Kirk
took part in program of Normal
Literary Society last Friday eve
ming.
The most interesting and ex-
citing basket ball game of the
season was played in the gym
nasiume on Friday evening be-
tween Lebanon Valley College
and the Normal team. The Leb-
anon Valley team outweighed the
Normal opponents by at least 25
lbs. to the man, but the Normal
boys held their opponents in
check so effectively that at the
close of the game the score was
a tie-25-25. The five minutes
play-off was exciting, neither
side being able to score unit
Barnhart won the game for Nor

game for a year, Virtually wor

More About Deer Heads.

A former resident of the Coun-
ty sends the following additional
comments on the points" at is
sue among deer hunters. We
are sorry that he forbids the use
of his name and address. The
letter follows: 'The man from
Carlisle knows what he is talking
about, and | think that a 13-
prong would be some buck, since
it means that the deer had l9
prongs on one side and IA on the
other, or 27 points. | think the
odd point might have been an
extra large projection which are
so common on, or near, the base
of the horn; or, it might have
been a freak of nature that some
times occurs. But if neither
should be the case, according to
our friend from Lashley, it would
"sure be some buck" and spells
tough eating; for, as he figures,
the animal was q years old when
killed, which looks like pretty
old deer to be running at large.
Again: did our friend from Lash.
ley ever see one-point deer?
have, but one point had been
broken off. What would be the
answer if a hunter should say he
saw g., B., Z, g., or 11-point
buck? | venture that nine-tenths
of the deer killed in Pennsylva.
MIA had an even number of points
on a full head of horns. / know
of an 8-prong buck having beer
killed on Sideling Hill this year,
and counting as our scribe from
Buck Valley, it would be 16
point head meaning that it was
16 years old, which sounds very
unreasonable for section o
mountain on which said deer wa
killed. Just imagine a deer liv
ing in Belfast township, amoni
so many hunters, for 16 years.

CHARGE THAT r. r. STRIKERS
WERE SELL-OUT VICTIMS

and Hartman system shop strikers
were victims of a ''se1l-out" by high
union officials are thrown open.
They are printed in a pamphlet-sup-
plement of the Blacksmith Jour
nal, official organ of the Information
al Brotherhood of Blacksmiths and
Helpers issued yesterday from Office
of that union in the Monon building.
The charges to date have been
made only in closed meetings of Of
ficers and members of the unions in
vloved. Also there have been secret
hearings by the American Federation
of Labor Railroad Employees dept.
Charges of a sell-out were first
aired in a letter of James W. Kline,
international president of the black
smiths, to the vice presidents and
business agents of his union. 1t was
sent out June 20 last year, few
weeks before the long-drawn l. c.
strike was caleld off by official order
Kline questioned calling the strike off
without a referendum of the strikers.
He wrote in part:
