Monday. Guests were James
Andrews and j. A. Grant of
Granville, E. P. Kennedy, A. A.
Fiefield and Palmer Jones of

guest speaker.
In his talk Mr.. DeWeerd prop
hesied the eventual fall of
Greece to the Italians, because
of lack of material, particularly
modern mechanized equipment.
He said it was too early yet to
predict how long Greece would
be able to hold out, and that it
depended upon how much aid
Britain would be able to give
her ally.
1t is interesting to note that

taking into consideration those
with a membership of 80 or

Modern Treatment
Of Disease

A feature story regard
ing X-ray Therapy in this
weeks issue of the Leader
points attention to the fact
that the City Hospital is
equipped with the most
modern deep x-ray therapy
y,units available, both mobile
and stationary, making it
possible for all Newark doc
tors to have access to the
latest facilities obtainable
in their treatment of vari-
GUS diseases.
When it is realized that
the City Hospital has kept
abreast of the times, utiliz-
iiN the latest of treatment
methods for the service of
humanity, residents of this
community can feel parti-
cularly fortunate that the
y hospital has at it's head,
individuals of foresight and
vision.
This is especially true
when it becomes known
that the type of treatment
used in the hospital is COM
parable to that used in the
largest cancer therapy in
stitutions in the country.

, by the Sunday Evening
Forum group of the First
Methodist church, was held
Wednesday night, Nov. G..
The speaker was Ewart Ed
mond Turner, who choose
FOR his subject, "The Pres

,a Mr.. Turner's address was
Ntimely, his viewpoint i'm
partial, and his treatment
of the subject was sane.
The forum group of the
church is doing a great
Awork in bringing lecturers
of this calibre to Newark.
We are not too old to
p learn, and it is very gratify-
ing when a group interests
itself in bringing speakers
of note into the community,
who will give us some
worthwhile answers to the
Y problems of the world to-
day.

Just two years ago-1938-
our city of Newark was the talk
of the Ohio high school sport
world for in that happy year
the Wildcats won a state basket
ball championship. In 1910, just
two years later, Newark is again
the talk of Ohio. However, it is
great football team that is at
tracing state attention this year
and not cage team.
In the new stadium at Zanes-
vile last Monday night the
Wildcats proved to be one of
Ohio's great high school grid
teams as they won their eighth
successive game, swamping the
GAINESVILLE Blue Devils, 1926, be-
fore an overflow crowd of 1000.
The one-sided win gave Newark
their first clear cut Central Ohio
League title in the II year his
tory of the C. o. L. The Cats
replaced GAINESVILLE as the loop
champion.
The Wildcats didn't waste a
minute in scoring and put them
selves in a lead which they nev-
er gave up. On the second play
the Cats attempted they scored.
Little Art Walsh, who has been
such sparksplug to Newark all
season with his brilliant run
ming and passing, faded back to
his 40-yard line and tossed a
long pass straight down the field
to Harold Gibson. Gibson far
outdistanced Zanesville's safety
men and scored easily.
Big Bill Craig recovered Tom
Kussmauls tumble on the Spar
tan's AZ. Walsh passed to Craig
who went to the nine. Four
plays later Davidson cracked
over for the Cats second touch
down.

instance, for stationery and

aforementioned purpose from
the swimming pool labor fund.
