MOTOR CARS WILL BE
FURNISHED WITH RADIO

Col. Marion S. Battle, Director of
the State Division of Motor Vehicles,
has expressed confidence that the AS
sembly would be able to provide funds
for the Statewide police communlca-
tions system, now under consldera-
tion. He also expressed belief that
eventually, Governor Price would re-
lease an appropriation for the COM
pletion of the project. In addition to
six radio transmitters, present plans
call for a portable transmitter to be
put into service, one that could be
used in cases of emergency to carry
messages into the field, either by re-
lay or direct methods. Efforts also
are being made to effect tle-up be-
tween State and municipal police radio
systems, as originally planned.

158TH ANNIVERSARY

The growth of Methodism from the
handful of worshippers who greeted
Thomas Coke and Francis Asbury in
Barrett's Chapel to the more than g.
100000 who will comprise the re-
united church was outlined by the
Rev. DR.. Carlisle L. Hubbard, of Cleve
land, Ohio, last Sunday at the 158th
anniversary services at Barrett's Cha
pei.
The church was thronged to the
doors to hear the former pastor of
St. Paul's M. E. Church, Wilmington.
Cars lined the highway for almost a
mile and many others were parked in
the nearby grove.
The cemetery surrounding the cha
pei was also thronged by the hundreds
who could not gain entrance to the
church for the services. The crowd
was estimated at more than 5000,
one of the largest in the history of the
services.

Pinder Sinks Two Goals To
Win For Lions 34-3O;
Tied At Half, Army Wins
32-18

The Island City Basketball
League played its scheduled
doubleheader last night with sur
prises in both games.
In the first contest, Park Tigers
and Lions Club played a game
that had the fans on their feet
after every play. The score was
tied at least a dozen times.
At the half the count stood at
15-all and from then to the end
when the Lions made q goal, the
Tigers would do the same.
At the last minute of play, L.
Curry took chance and shot a
long one from the center of the
court, ending the fourth quarter
5000. An extra period was play
ed, the second time in the past
two weeks Lions have had to go
into an extra period. Joe Pin
der made two goals. The Tigers
trying desperately to score but
missed every shot and the final
whistle blew with the score $3.50.
In the second game the DEMO
lays surprised the strong Army
five and held them down for the
first three quarters. The boys
showed more pep than in the first
game. Soldiers were puzzled dur
ing the first half but finally
broke through and the game end
ed 32-18.
In the last quarter the second
string players of the Army saw
action. Howell, Starr, Nodine,
Sommers played.
The score was tied in the first
quarter and at the half but Army
was too much for the DeMolays
after that.
