BASKET BALL.

The High School team went to
Darlington Saturday night to play
the High School team of that city.
The team refused to play them CIV
ing as their reason that some of the
Hartford boys are not High School
students, which is untrue. Howev-
err, the American Legion team
which won the Western Kentucky
championship last year engaged
them. The game resulted in defeat
for the home boys by a score of %
to 10.
With the scalps of Louisville
High and Xavier dangling. at their
BELTS the strong Shepherdsyille
quintette defeated the Hartford
High School to the tune of "A to "a
in hard fought game from start
to finish. The home boys were un-
able to penetrate the barrage of
Wigginton and Thompson who kept
the basket obscured and made them
shoot unsuccessfully at long range.
The visitors played great game
both in the defensive and offensive.
Shepherdsville took the lead at the
start which was never overcome
though they were forced to play to
their utmost at all stages of the
game. Summers and. Ashby starred
for the visitors who sped around the
floor taking part in every formation
while Ellis and Grove were the
point makers for the losers.

HARTFORD INVENTORS
RECEIVE GOOD OFFER

Holbrook & Parks, of this city,
owners of the patent rights on the
Parks-Estes Demountable Auto
Rim, sent the rim to Grand Central
Palace New York City, Jan. l, to be
placed on display, and have already
received communication from a
large manufacturing concern which
offers to take the patent on a manu-
featuring basis, giving it as their
belief that a fortune can be made
from the rim.
The idea was originated by Mr..
Walter Parks who in the summer
Of 1917 while enroute to a picnic at
Livermore, Ky, on hot and dusty
day, had a blowout and for hours
was compelled to work, and sweat
in the dirt and CRIME while getting
out the rusty bolts that held the
rim. He then and there made
solemn vow that he would work out
some invention that would make
the rim easier to remove. After
considerable thought on the subject
he evolved an idea which he later
shared with Mr.. H. ID. Estes, of this
city, who is one of the best me-
chanics in Western Kentucky. Mr..
Estes working Oh the idea succeed
ed in manufacturing a rim that has
only two bolts and can be de-
mounted in twenty minutes. This
was tried out in every way, found
to be practical and was patented
Aug. 6, 1919, the patent number
being 1,214,S63.
AS the war was in progress at
that time the matter received no
further attention until recently
when Mr.. Harold Holbrook purchas-
