OAKLAND BOOTERS SCORE
VICTORY OVER KITZMILLER
Take Fast Game Here so Last
Friday For First Win Since 1881

Coach Thomas Baucom's Oakland
High hooters defeated Kitzmiller High
80 at Oakland last Friday to give the
local school its first soccer victory
over Kitzmiller since 1881.
Kitzmiller may still carry off hon
ors in. the southern division of the
county high school league, depending
on the outcome with Kempton this
week. Kitzmiller defeated Oakland
81 earlier in the season.
Oakland, with two victories, one de-
feat and one tie for it's complete league
card, is holding a one-point lead over
Kitzmiller, which has won two Of three
starts, but the Kitzmiller kickers can
deadlock Oakland by tying Kempton.
A Kitzmiller victory over Kemptom
would give Kitzmiller the division
crown by single point. Kempton was
defeated 14-2 in the first meeting of
the two schools. Oakland also won
from Kempton 1913 in one meeting
and the other resulted in a scoreless
tie.
Wolfe missed a penalty kick in the
first period of last Fridays game but
booted second penalty try to give
Oakland 10 lead at the half. Boil
den and Mason booted field goals in
the third period and Wolfe's penalty
goal and second goal by Mason il
the third period turned the game into
a rout
The girls fieldball teams Of Oak
land, Kempton, and Kitzmiller are run
ming close race for the southern di-
vision honors. Oakland's completed
card shows two victories, one defeat
and one tie, defeating Kempton 12-G
and 1910, tieing Kitzmiller Go after
bowling to that foe ga. Kempton
downed Kitzmiller 1872 in the first
meeting. A Kempton victory over
Kitzmiller or tie will give the title
to Oakland.
Accident Highs soccer team seems
sure to take the northern division
title from Friendsville and Grants
vile. while Friendsville fieldball team
appears to be leading,

Red House Lutheran Parish


Services next Sunday at Gnegy and
Red House churches at the usual time.
In the sermon, the pastor will endeavor
to show why it seems so difficult for
Christian believers to be sure of the
correct answer to the question sug-
gested by the Epistle for the Day:
"What is Gods will? ?"
St. Paul felt very sure about Gods
will, what the Lord and Giver of life
expected of him, and could be counted
on to do for him in the days to come.
Never did Paul consult fortune-tel-
lers and witches, palmists and tealeaf
readers, or others who find it so easy
to fool worried men and women.
BLESSED Assurancew The blind Fanny
Crosby sang it into the hearts Of null
titudes during her lifetime. Paul cher
ished a joyous Christian experience
because he was careful to avoid the
common faults of those who become
anxious and fearful about the future.

most projects, thus enabling WPA en-
ployees assigned to this particular job,
to engage in other tasks. These drills
contribute directly, as do all other
units Of CARROTS equipment, to the
projects progress, for these power
drills sink holes in the hardest rock
dozens of times faster than would be
possible with even the sharpest Of
hand drills.
This machinery also aids the spon-
sors County, by drawing WPA rental
fees applicable to county sponsoring
expenditures, that otherwise would be
a direct outlay Of cash. Summarizing
tersely, the machinery gives the tax
payers in the locality in which it is
operating in cooperation with WPA
and elsewhere, better roads, quicker,
cheaper.
Everyone's opinion, of course, will
not coincide with my own, neverthe-
less l firmly believe that if WPA con-
tinues and the county's equipment is
permitted to function unrestrained,
virtually every important secondary
road will eventually be reconditioned
and oiled. | believe, too, that this is
the goal that our County Commission
ers are conscientiously endeavoring to
attain-the oiling, finally, Of every

HALLOWEEN GROWS UP

Since Halloween has "grown up"
police chiefs write "No depredations"
and "No property damage" on their
records with amazing frequency fol-
lowing the nights celebrations. Even
fiat tires, the removal of steps from
residences and public buildings, and
shattered street lamps, faint echoes
from the good old days." are on the
way out. But don't imagine, asserts an
article in recent magazine, that mod
ern youngsters have less rascality in
them than on Halloween nights of
yore. 1t is rather that these energies
are being better directed.
"The boisterous old spirit is still
there, but municipal organizations and
social and civic clubs of grown-ups
have led it into ball parks, armories,
moving picture theatres, and to the
main streets of the town, as in Oak
land, where street carnival of fun
and entertainment is provided for both
young and old and where the spirit of
the witches" is given over to gayety,
rather than to destruction of property
The police like the idea, so do the
householders, but best of all, the kids
like it.
Halloween night programs differ
from town to town, but few towns, if
any, seem to have a better program
than Oakland has provided for the
past number of years. A mammoth
mummers' parade is staged early in
the evening, which is fun for the par
Elephants and lots more fun for the
on-lookers. After the parade, dancing
and other forms of entertainment go
on until the younger folks are most
too tired to carry out a program of
destruction, and go home and go to
bed. .
And so it goes. There's just as much
energy used, just as much noise made,
and just as many spooks haunting the
streets, but no one gets hurt, the front
gate is safe, and everybody has a lot
of fun.

Paragraph Opinions -.
On CarnivaIs

While on the subject of celebrations,
it would be treat sometime to have
carnival in town minus all the con-
cessions where the citizen doesn't have
a chance.
Many times people who look as if
they didn't have quite enough to eat,
will spend their few dimes in the hope
that the wheels of fortune will stop
on the right number. But they stop
on the wrong numbers lot more often
than on the right ones, for various
reasons.
Locally run concessions, good, clean
shows, and the usual number of rides
and amusements, would be much more
satisfactory for everybody concerned,
seems to US.
There's really no logical reason why
"skin games" should be invited into a
community for the sole purpose of
fleeing lot of innocent people, and
the sponsoring organization get a per
centage of the receipts. Many times,
possibly, the sponsoring organization
is feeced of its proper share
The custom of having carnivals has
gone on for years and no reflection up
on the sponsoring organizations is in
tended. But wouldn't it. be nice to
have something different the next
time?

To the Editor of The Republican.
During a recent trip over more than
one hundred miles of Garrett county's
lateral roads, | ultimately concluded
that county owned road building and
general improvement equipment is
definitely valuable asset to our coun-
ty, both from constructive and eco
nomic standpoint.
The initial outstanding feature of
this much denounced machinery is it's
supplementary assistance in speeding
up WPA projects. Not only are the
projects progress increased to a max
imum, but by machine-power grading
and the distribution Of crushed stone
from county owned crushers, the COM
pleted road is perceptibly more uni
form and durable too, thereby reduc-
ing maintenance costs to a minimum
degree. !.-,-ls.>

INDIAN MUMMY
IS INVESTIGATED
BY OFFICIALS
Well Preserved Cadayer
in Shaman Island Grave
twenty-five Years Old

Investigation over the weekend
of reported mummy ON Sha-
man Island disclosed rare, rbut
by no means unprecedented, case of
a well-preserved body in an Indian
grave. S. fsst iN l ss.V+isf .
District Ranger w. A. Clipper
field and Charles w. Carter, Jul
neau mortician, visited the island
Saturday afternoon, going by out
board from AUX Bay. Shaman Is
land is about a quarter of a mile
off the northwest shore of Douglas
Island. ,.a...,.,.ss ...s, ~
The body, only the head of which
is visible above the grave swathing,
simply dried up instead of decom-
posing. The skin and hair are in
place, the skin bleached white as
parchment and the hair of both
head and beard coars esndy color.
At Edge of Cliff
The grave, a standard Indian
burial arrangement of hewn tim
bers surrounding the body, stands
at the top of a steep cliff overlook
ing the water.
Carter estimated the body to have
been in the grave at least IS years
a supposition which was borne out
by Chipperfields examination of the
timbers of the burial house.
Since its reputation as mummy
began to grow about a week ago.
the grave has been visited by many.
A beaten path leads from the top of
the island to the grave.
When first reported, the mummy
drew the attention of the Terri
torial Museum staff which hoped
the body might prove to- be mu-
scum specimen. 1t appears how
ever. that the body is not, ancient
to qualify, and it will be left to rest
in peace.
