ATHENS, O., Oct. 31.-Authorities
today learned that sixty-seven
spikes had been removed from rails
on a high curve of the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad, over which President
Hoover's special train passed early
Saturday.
1t was not known when the spikes
were removed from the rails,
whether before or after the Presi-
dents special passed.
The spikes were pulled from a
section of inside track on AlliSon's
crossing, about four miles west OF
Athens.
Two miners found the spikes
which were hurled down forty
foot embankment on which the rails
were elevated. The track curves at
the crossing. Railway officials say
angle irons apparently held the
tracks together until today, prevent
ing a serious wreck.
Had the spikes been pulled from
the outside track, the Presidents
special might have crashed down
the embankment, it was said.
Sheriff Wayne Wingett, Athens
county, and railroad detectives
sought a train rider, who was ar
rested at Chillicothe last week on
suspicion. The rider was questioned
and released.
Isaac Van Dyke, miner, and a
companion made the discovery of
removal of the spikes at 4:4O p. m.
Sunday.
Twenty-six trains had crossed
the rails since the President
special passed eastward to Wash
ington on its return from Indian
apoliS.

said.
Recalling that he spent many
summers of his life in Maine, the
Governor added that II have done

that his Importance in the world is
that of getting a diploma and that
his assistance would be sought. In
this the graduate is more often mis-
taken, for if one must have place
in the world, he must go after it.
Mr.. Reasoner divided his address
into three parts, namely, that there
is a God; every generation is better
than the preceding one, and that a
Republic form of government depends
on the faith of the constituency with
in that government. In the latter re-
spect the speaker told of the con-
fidence in ourselves and our nation
at the time of the World war and
then of the crash in the economic
took with it the confidence and "cocki-
ness" of the nation and placed in it's
stead a nation full of criticism and
fault-finding. In this last respect the
child has come in for his or her share
of that criticism and fault-f1nding
The speaker stated that it isn't crit
icism children need, it is understand
ing, charity and love. He told of
visiting farm home one time where
the father had just purchased an auto
mobile. In telling about it the father
said that the children would take that
car out on the road and speed forty
miles per hour, thus intimating that
he did not know what was going to
become of the present generation.
After supper theS,father and his guest
went for a ride and when no one was
in sight the car was tried out for its
speed just as the driver father had
expressed his displeasure in only a
short time before. 1t isn't the young

was made and many have expressed
their desire to again hear them at
some future date. Mr.. Reasoner has
appeared twice in the school this
term, but this was the first time par
ents and others had the opportunity
of hearing him and Mr.. Accola.
School Work Exhibited.
The various teachers in the grades
and high school had arranged a fine
exhibit made up of the school work
thus far this term and this was much
enjoyed by everyone, who viewed it
with pleased comment The faculty
can be complimented on this feature
of the program and especially since
it was arranged for inspection in so
short a time.
During the business part of the
meeting a new board of officers was
elected for the coming year and con-

Vernon Anderson, secretary, and
Henry Jensen, treasurer. Mr.. Con-
away was reelected to head the PIT.
