of the central competitive agreed
to meet in conference to negotiate

MT, VERNON HIGH
AGAIN DEFEATED
Lose To New Philadelphia
Saturday By A Score Of
20 To 0

New Philadelphia, the home of Vic
Donahey, governor-elect of Ohio. cele-
brated another victory Saturday.
This time the high school football
team of that town defeated the Mt.
Vernon high school warriors by a
score of 20 to o.
Despite frequent and costly fumbles
New Philadelphia had no difficulty in
winning out over Mt. Vernon by a
score of 90 to O. The offensive play
of Mt. Vernon was at times sensa-
tional, but when within striking dis
tanco of the goal fumbles would pre-
vent score.
Mt. Vernon made only two first
downs and those came in the final
moments of the fourth quarter, when
they launched an aerial attack on
New Philadelphia.

SERVED IN FINE STYLE
Members OF Women's Auxili-

Grams OF World War

Three hundred world war ex-service
men, members of the American Le-

guests of the Women's Auxiliary of
the American Legion at dinner Civ
en- Saturday evening-Armistice Day
at the Chamber of Commerce. In
this manner Mt Vernon's observance
of Armistice Day was brought to a
fitting and proper close.
The dinner was served at $3.50
o'clock. Throughout the day conn
mittee Of the auxiliary, of which Mrs.
Sarah z. Headngton, auxiliary COM
'mander, was chairman, assisted by
the seven chairmen of standing com.

to prepare and make ready such a
meal as they knew would be most
pleasing to a bunch of hungry SOL

man of the X. P. They were assisted
in serving by group of 25 young wo-

pastor of St. Vincent de Pauls Cath
olic church. When all present had
been sufficiently refreshed, Mrs.
Headington announced the speaking
program.
The Rev. l.. w. Mulhane was the
first speaker. He gave such a talk,
filled and overflowing with humor,
such as only he can give, and the
piquant flavor of which it is quite i'm
possible to reproduce in type.
During the late war, Rev. Mhlhane
had been privileged to receive letters
from great number of Knox county
soldiers who had gone overseas or
were in the training camps. In the
course OF his talk, he recited some of
the humorous and comical things they
had given him. Frequently he was
interrupted by the laughter of his
auditors.
Vice Commander Edmund Budd of
Dan c. Stone Jr. post, American Le-
gion, spoke briefly and happily in
acknowledgement for himself and
comrades of the pleasant hospitality
of the ladies of the auxiliary. He de.
clared his complete conviction that
the Mt. Vernon auxiliary is "the best
in Ohio" He called for a cheer to
be given the ladies. 1t was given
heartily, all standing. Past Command.
