Legion's Boxing
Card Feature Is
Six Round Draw
Shuler and Chapman Top
Good Bouts Here in
Armistice Event


Glenn Shuler, Of Henderson,
vile, and Ben Chapman, of Ware
Shoals, S. c., fought to ask
round draw in the feature match
of the American. Legion boxing
carnival at the high school gyna-
SUM last night.
Seven matches were on the card
and all were good fights with the
three finals showing the fans
some real action in the ring.
Shuler and Chapman were even
ly matched and their was little to
choose between the two men. The
first five rounds were very close
and Shuler possibly had slight
edge in the final, but the draw
decision of referee Bill Keeling
proved popular with the crowd.
Both men were fast and hard
to hit and each packed a good wal
lop in both hands. Shuler was
particularly effective with a long
right in the sixth round. Both
men weighed lao pounds.
In the semi-final Jack Roper,
Hendersonville, and Allen Daven-
port, Ware Shoals, also fought to
draw in a close six rounder.
Two rounds were about even,
Roper had an edge in two and
Davenport had a pretty wide mar
gin in the fifth when he backed
Roper to the ropes and scored
with both hands. Roper weighed
Jap and Davenport 140.
Frank McGraw, scored a tech
nical knockout over Jim Culbert-
son, Ware Shoals, after two
rounds of fast milling in the final
three round bout of the evening.

SYMPATHY FOR CLAIM

LONDON, Nov. IS. (UP)-
Germany is ready to admit she
has rearmed, despite treaty re-
strictions, reliable German sourc-
es revealed here last night.
The admission would be made
if the powers merely would take
note of Germany's confession,
recognizing her rearmament as
an accomplished fact, and thus
permitting the Reich's return to
the world arms conference at &C.
neva, these sources said.
This novel proposal for Ger
many's return to Geneva was
said to have been made by Joa-
chin Won Ribbentrop, special en-
voy for Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hit,

tain Anthony Eden, Lord privy

Won Ribbentrop was with Eden
yesterday at the foreign office
nearly an hour, going over the
whole field of Anglo-German re-
lations, with special reference to
the armament issue.
He came here last week pur-
portedly to gain Britain's support
in legalizing the Reich's rearma-
ment.
British authorities described

has stood for ever moral, educational,

best efforts forth when called upon.
Mrs. Clary has most notably sec

has lent her aid to the several denom-

her own church doubly attractive. She
has been an asset to the social side OF
life here, and she largely shares in
the regret expressed by the commun-

Mr.. and Mrs. Clary depart with the

on the border line btween Virginia
and West Virginia; he will leave Po-

1t is safe to say that Mr.. and Mrs.
Clary leave here with the universal
regret Of Pocomoke and vicinity fol-

fled themselves with the general life
of the community as to render their
places hard to fill. Mr.. Clary, by his
broad-minded Christianity, has work

other denominations in their relig-

warm place in their hearts. He has,

Soft-BaH Leagues
Finish First Round

The soft ball leagues recently form
ed by Prof. George w. Ludvigson,
member of Pocomoke High School
faculty, has been operating quite sue
cessfully and furnishing healthful,
wholesome sport for those whose OPP
portunities for outdoor exercise are
limited.
Two leagues, National and Ameri-
can, have been organized. The teams
in the former are made up by the fol-
lowing mercantile business firms and
others: City Firemen, Marva Food
Stores, Coffman-Fisher, Montgomery
Ward, Merrill-Miller, Clothiers, and
the Worcester Democrat. The Amer
lean, by Duncan Brothers Garage, Ma
tional Guards, J. C. Penney, Atlantic
and Pacific, American Stores and
Clark Brown Shoe Factory.
To date, the first teams named in
each league have been successful, each
trio winning all it's games for per-
centage of 1000. Considerable inter-
est has been manifested, and Prof.
Ludvigson has made genuine con-
tribution to the pleasure and health
of those who, probably, are most in
need of diversions.

LOCAL MECHANIC
AWARDED FOR
OBSERVATION
Mystery Car Gives Five Dollars
To Garage Man For Motto
ing Fan Belt

Mr.. Harold Lambertson, of this
citv. connected with the Pocomoke
CITY Garage, picked five-dollar bill
from under the hood of car which
stopped, on Tuesday of last week. TO
have the oil checked.
When the car asked for the oil
inspection, Mr.. Lambertson, IN at
tending to that duty, noticed that the
fan belt revealed such worn-out
condition as to lead him to mention
it to the driver. The visitor exam
ined the belt, agreed it was rather
dilapidated, and asked if he could
get one at the garage. He was told
he could, and when he asked what
kind he could procure, Mr.. Lambert
son replied that several kinds were
kept, but probably more Gates were
sold than any other.
The man then inquired whether that
was a good make and was told 1t
was as good as any, and, furthermore
if one should not be satisfactory 1t
could be changed for new one at
any station where they were sold.
The man then smiled and said,
"You win. I am driving one OF the
20 Mystery Cars sent out to adver-
tise the Gates fan belt, and S. are
given to every service man who de-
tects that bad belt and makes an eff
| fort to sell Gates belt" The driv-
er was not distributing the cash that
day, but made out certificate OF col
lection, took photograph of Mr..
Lambertson, congratulated him on his
attention to business and drove on to
CAPTURE the next victim"
Before leaving, he stated that Mr..
Lambertson was the third in about
10 days who had noted the bad belt
and were eligible for the prize. He
also told of one mechanic who had
guaged the oil, had wiped the guage
on the bad belt, but had failed to say
anything. Mr.. Lambertson was en-
tirely ignorant of the prize that had
been offered, but the incident shows
it is always well to keep ones eyes
open for business.

THREE new CANDIDATES
FOR COUNTY OFFICES

The Democrat" today contains the
formal announcement of three more
candidates for office: William II.
Price, ESQ, for States Attorney;
Crawford B. Hillman, for Sheriff; and
Frank E. Hudson, for County Commits
sioner.
All these men are well-known citi-
zens of the county, the first named,
resident of Snow Hill; the other
two, of Pocomoke City. In another
column will be found a statement
made by Mr.. Price.
Crawford B. Hillman is a resident
Of Pocomoke where he has been in
business for some years, and, at pres
cnt proprietor Of Marva Food Store.
He is young in years, energetic and
possesses qualities which should APP
peal to all voters in the county for
the office he seeks. The fact that a
sheriff seems about due to this section
should add force to Mr.. Hillman's can
didacy.
Frank E. Hudson, also of Pocomoke
is real estate agent, has, before,
served the county as Commissioner
and his experience should be a val
liable asset in presenting his claims
to the office. He is well and favor
ably known and has many friends in
this district.
