From Old Bridge is
Giuen to Hi-Y Club

A gavel made of oak timber from
the old National bridge, built in 1928,
has been presented to the Hi-Y club
by one of its members, Roderick Hin
sky. son of Mr. and Mrs. John Hinsky.
The gavel was made by the boy S
grandfather, William A. Dunham, of
South Thirteenth street, who 25 years
ago, when tearing down the historic
old bridge, saved some of the timber
Mr.. Durham is an expert at wood cary
ing and the gavel, though made by
hand, is as perfect as if turned out with
lathe.
1t is inscribed in front with "Hi-Y,
1S2S-1922." and with the name of the
donor, r. Hinsky" The value of the
gift is increased by the historic past

and pleaded with the bandits not to
harm him.
When a man and a woman customer
entered. Seyfert was ordered to serve
them while the bandits threatened him
from hiding places in the rear.
Patrolman John Miller went into
the store while the bandits were at
