BROWNING HAS
No DIFFICULTY
BEATING JONES
Former Wrestling Champion Is
Star Performer At Last Nights
Contests

Jim Browning. former heavy
weight wrestling king was too much
/ for John Paul Jones of Texas last
night in the local arena and the
/ Missouri farmer took the fall de
cision in Is minutes by means Of
one Of his famous body scissors.
The old master proved that he
has forgotten none of the tricks Of
the trade and when Jones tried to
rough matters up a little he found
himself on the receiving end Of ell
bow punches and other tokens Of
affection in measure equal to those
he had handed out The match
was supposed TO have been one of
scissors holds as Jones has develop
ed one OF his own but Browning
never gave him an opportunity to
work himself up 10 that stage
where he could apply the hold with
any telling effect.
It was a pleasure to watch
Browning in the ring as he worked
with such apparent ease and never
seemed to be extended 10 his best
efforts.
The second half OF the double
main event was disappointment
to the small number of fans in at
tendance. Kimon Kudo, Japanese
jill jitSu artist had been billed to
take on Ernie Dusek. Just before
this match was called, however, a
telegram was received from Kudo
stating that his car had broken
down near Indio and that he would
be unable to fulfill his engagement
here.
Dusek then challenged the win
ners of the two preliminary bouts
and took Harry Ekizian and Casey
Colombo on for two 20 minute seS-
SionS. Ernie won the first tuSSle by
a spin and body smother in about
IS minutes. Ekizian was greeted
by q barrage of catcallS and boos
when he landed on the canvas and
lay stretched cut apparently knock
ed out cold The reception cOntin-
ued when he left the ring. Ekizian
sure is the White-haired boy with
the local fans.
Following this Dusek took on
Colombo and the two gladiators eX-
changed grunts, groanS, punches
and wallops for 20 minutes when
the match was declared a draw.
Colombo although giving the i'm
preston that he would rather wreS-
tie without the aid of kicks and
wallops showed that he could dish
it out as well as take it when he
matched DuSek punch for punch
and butt for butt Once he butted
Ernie right out Of the ring. He
learned something from his pre-
vious match with Hans Schroeder
and stamped on DuSek's toes sew
eraI times with much gusto, also
with telling effect.
In his first match of the evening
Colombo won from Hans Schroeder
by a spin and slam after Is min
uteS Of good wrestling by both men.
Hans favorite hold was a toe
stamp which he used on Colombo
several times during the match.
The curtain raiser between Jack
Nelson, Negro and Harry Ekizian
was slow and uninteresting and
vas won by the latter in Is minutes
by a slam and body spread The
only highlight in this match was
when Harry kicked Referee Bill
Tacket in the jaw while the latter
was trying to untangle the two
men. Bill threatened to finish
Harry then and there but changed
his mind and allowed the bout to
continue.

Final Settlement Is Effected In
Truck War Between States

Final settlement of the truck war
between the states of West Virginia
and Maryland has been effected.
The following quotation from let
ter to Walter R. Rudy, Commissioner
of Motor Vehicles, from James P.
Tierney, West Virginia Supervisor of
Transportation, is of interest:
''In an opinion dated August 30, our
Attorney General advised US that we
had the right to make refunds to Mary
land for hire operators who were
obliged to obtain registration and
permits during the period between
July 1 and August 2, when our recip-
rocal agreement was not in effect.
Maryland operators who purchased
either permits or registration plates
for the entire year beginning July l,
1885, will be refunded three-quarters
of the amount paid less $1.00, the
nominal refund fee"
Commissioner Rudy advises refund
applications may be secured from the
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles of
Maryland.

Barn Of Richard Mckenzie De-
strOyed By Fire

Fire which resulted from lightning
striking the barn of Richard McKen-
zie, one mile from the National High
way, five miles southwest of Frost
burg, in this county, destroyed the
structure and its contents early on
Friday morning.
The barn was ladened with twenty
tons of hay and a quantity of oats and
wheat, besides two wagons, a buggy
and farming implements of various
kinds. The loss, according to Mr..
Mckenzie, is $4,000. He said he had
no insurance on the building and did
not think he would rebuild.
Neighbors, attracted by the blaze,
hurried to the scene and formed a
bucket brigade from a nearby spring,
thus saving the adjoining home. The
heat was so intense window panes in
the dwelling were broken and paint
on the building was blistered.

Changes in Music instruction to
Aid Five County Schools

Through cooperative arrangement
with the County Commissioners and
principals of five schools of the county,
another teacher of music will be added
to the staff of instructors. This is
calculated to allow more time for the
teaching of music in four high schools
and will also allow music to be taught
in the Oakland Elementary school.
Mrs. Russell Brown, who is now
teaching music in Friendsville, Grants
vile, Accident and Oakland High
schools, will teach in the Oakland High
and Elementary schools, and other
schools in this section if time permits.
Miss Evangeline Rumbaugh has been
engaged to teach in Friendsville, Ac-
cident, and Grantsville High schools.
The change in the present schedule
will not take place until some time in
October.
The County Commissioners are fur
nishing half the cost of the additional
teacher, approximately $175.00 and the
principals of the five schools involved
will see to the raising of the balance,
which is approximately $4,000 each.

ABSENCE OF ANY KILLING
FROST IS AID TO FARMERS
Except for Potatoes and TOma-
toes, Crops Said to be Average

For the third straight year Garrett
county farmers are having the advan-
tage of not experiencing killing frost
until the crops have been harvested.
The late summer-like weather Of Sep
tember is overcoming, to great eX-
tent, the wet weather of the summer,
and except for the potato and tomato
output, crops are said to be average
or better.
Due to the wet season throughout
the summer many farmers have COM
planned that their tomatoes were be-
coming rotten before they ripened.
The wet weather was also unfavorable
for potatoes, causing a heavy blight,
and also causing them to rot in the
ground to some extent. The yield
will be light this year, according to a
number of potato growers.
Opinions from farmers and from
John H. Carter, county agent, are to
the effect that the oats crop was fair,
wheat, corn, and buckWheat, good;
peas and sweet corn, excellent. The
growing season for hay was excellent
but the weather poor for a good har-
vest. While the tonnage is above the
average, the quality is not expected
to be up to par.
The insects seemed to be more
numerous and destructive than usual,
but farmers practicing proper control
methods, did not seem to have their
products harmed materially.
While there was a light frost on
Tuesday morning, nothing was dam
aged to any extent. Killing frosts
were prevented earlier this fall by
blankets of fog during the nights of
every cold spell.

DEFECT IN SPEECH HAS
BEEN OVERCOME BY TWO
Red Cross Through instruction
Helps Children to Reenter School

How the Red Cross was able to in
struct two children of the county who
were defective in speech and who had
been excluded from school on this ac-
count, so that this year they are re-
instated, was made known this week
by Mrs. E. 2. Tower, county chairman
of the organization.
A boy II years old, and a girl 7
years old, who had been in the first
grade of school, were unable to ab-
sorb instruction and had been excluded
from school. They were unable to
pronounce words that were under
standable and it was next to impos-
sible to learn in the public schools
where individual attention could not
be given.
The American Red Cross, through
the Garrett County Chapter, obtained
Miss Anna Louise Connell, of Hutton,
who had several years of training in a
deaf and dumb school in a western
state. Through the entire summer she
has been instructing these children
not only in pronouncing of words, but
in reading, writing, and arithmetic.
This fall they are back in school, the
girl in the first grade, the boy able to
be in the third grade. Both can pro-
nounce words distinctly, and will stand
an even chance now to learn along with
the rest of the children.
This is only one of the many things
done by the Red Cross. No funds for
work of this kind are available thru
any other channel. Mrs. Tower stated
there were quite a number of other
children in the county with defective
speech that could be corrected with in
dividual attention by some instructor,

TO CONDUCT SAVE-A-LIFE
CAMPAIGN OCTOBER 1-31
Will be Necessary For Every Mo.
tor Car to Have Inspection

The annual Save-a-Life campaign
will be conducted in Maryland this
year from October l to October 81, in
elusive. During this time it will be
necessary for every motor car owner
to have his car inspected at a conve-
nient station appointed by the Com
missioner of Motor Vehicles.
His car will be passed on by me-
chanic before a seal is placed on the
windshield signifying that the car is
safe for highway operation.
Fatality figures as a result of au-
tomobile accidents have continually
grown to a very large number and
much of this can be checked directly
to faulty conditions of brakes, tires,
binding headlights and many minor
mechanical defects of the automobile.
Walter R. Rudy, Commissioner of
Motor Vehicles, plans to visit many
stations during the campaign to see
that appointees are rendering proper
inspections.
"It is my DESIRE" Commissioner
Rudy said day or two ago, "to have
the complete support of every motorist
to thoroughly carry out this inspec-
ton. 1t is not only your duty but your
privilege to protect innocent children,
men and women against possible death
or injury that might have been avoided
had every car passed this safety
test"
