was $~17.s67-86, with $2,564.32 being
paid on the second half OF SO.
Other years on which delinquent
payments we're made ran as follows.

districts Of the county got the lions
share. there being $o.773.36 distri
buted among them. To the General
Fund raj apportioned $5,748.82

rants issued up to May !. last year..
Taking into consideration the fact
that the legislature had reduced the

cial session In January. the large

out ~ especially significant.
Substantial payments continued TO
come In this month, due to loans be-
completed through the Federal

FARMERS ASKED To
Meet MI1TEE

The Wheat Production committee
called attention this week to the
fact that all farmers who had signed
under the allotment agreements and
desired to combine units should can
at the office OF the secretary and ar-
range for compliance agreements tn
be signed Immediately.
the committee explained that
these are used where a farmer has
signed contracts for various units
and would like to transfer some Of
his wheat acreage from one to an
other, that is combining the various
acreage units SO the total would re-
main the same but would not be con-
fined to decreases or limitations on
each individual tract.
corn-Ho0 Program
Although the meetings last week
where the corn-hog program was ex-
planned were rather poorly attended.
Harry Ehrmanntraut, secretary Of
the wheat control association. said
those who were interested would D
ahead with plans to organize In the
county. Representatives OF the varf-l
GUS communities will assemble this
week to organize a committee SINH
lar to the wheat production conn
mittee. In order to proceed with the
program.
The poor attendance at the meet
lngs was attributed to the fact that
few farmers In the county would
be able to take advantage OF the pro-
gram, but those few who were quail
led, were not to be denied the priv
eye.

CRON|N SENDS
WH|TEH|LL
To MOUND
By GARRETT WATERS


Both the Griffmen and Detroit
Tigers hoped to get better break
on the pitching mound in today's
second game of the current series,
following yesterdays pitching
massacre" which found seven
hurlers hit to all corners Of the
lot.
Earl Whitehill, veteran south
paw, was to get the Griff assign
ment, while Tommy Bridges, al
ways a tough nut for Cronln's
gang to crack, was to be White
hills opponent.
In yesterdays contest, IS hits
were whacked out, with General
Alvin Crowder, Alec McColl, Bob
Burke, Jack Russell and Alphonse
Thomas being the Griff box VIC
tins, and Schoolboy Rowe, Elon
Hogsett and Eden Auker, the
Tiger martyrs.
The Tigers collected 18 of these
bingles while the Griffs gathered
IT. The game ended after II in
nings Of play with the Tigers on
the long end, Is to 10.
Prospects that today's contest
viii be more normal from pitch
ing standpoint, were ;Qed in that
both Whitehill and B 9dges have
hurled excellent ball all season.
THEY'VE been called the fighting
Tigers all season. They're just
that, those pesky Detroit Tigers
here for a series of games against
the Griffmen. They showed
plenty of fight yesterday to win,
13 to 10, in II innings of heated
play.
The most important thing no
ticed about the Cochrane-managed
team yesterday was its ability to
hit to all corners of the lot in
the pinches. Eighteen base blows
were Whacked.
Both Teams Hit
Two hits were produced in the
first inning for one run. Two
more were punched in the fifth
for two more markers, and four
hits in the sixth and seventh
pushed over seven tallies, which
as fate had it, kept them right in
the battle all the time despite
sensational hitting by the Griffs.
Finally, three more bingles
found their way into the scoring
~
these safeties proving more than
enough to win.
The pitching of Manager Coch-
rane's box artists was not as
good as it might have been.
This may give the team plenty
Of trouble later when the race
enters its stretch run. Still, the
great hitting Of the boys might
offset this.
