Alleged Plot
To Frame"
Mayor Wright

Owen Palmer Buker of Cos
hocton signed a statement this
week in which he linked himself
with Chief of Detectives Milt
Stotts of GAINESVILLE in an alleged
plot to frame" Mayor Glenn
Wright, and also linked Police
Chief Gail Christman of New
ark, in his charges.
Buker, who was held in
the county Jail, was originally
because of a warrant sworn
out Friday by Mayor Wright, on
a bad check charge. He claims
that Christman took him to
GAINESVILLE and contacted Chief
Stotts, and alleged that the pur-
pose of the drive was to frame"
the Mayor.
Chief Christman appeared be-
fore Mayor Wright Tuesday
noon and denied the content of
the confession" made by Buk-
er, and labeled the statement as
"lousy."
Mayor Wright had the check
charges dismissed against Buk-
er, and took the alleged frame"
confession under advisement.

Newark Schools Expand
Defense Education Program

Total expenditures were $4,-
1899, leaving balance of $2,-
476.18 in the Athletic Associa-
tion fund, as the net results of
football income alone.
In this connection it is inter
esting to know that a note of
$1142.62, the balance due on the
field lighting equipment at
White field, was paid out of the
income this year, and these
lights are now paid for. Grant
ed a favorable season next year
and another good team, net in
come should reach the neigh5or-
hood of $4,000 it was pointed out.
A few of the expenditures,
broken down, are as follows:
stadium lighting $279.85; trans
portation $247.90; officials $174,-
so; stadium, general $579.80;
athletic equipment $627 "a;
meals, $136.22; as well as ex-
penditures for cleaning and re-
pair of uniforms, administrative
expense, advertising, medical at
tention, police, taxes, insurance,
etc.
James G. Cooper, representing
the East Main Street Methodist
church appeared before the
board, asking a concession in
price for use of the high school
auditorium to present a Marion
ct passion Play" which is be-
ing brought to Newark under
the sponsorship of the young
people Of the church, sometime
in the near future. The board
members favored letting the
church group have the audito-
rum both for a matinee per-
formance and the evening show
at no extra cost.
Some discussion was held rel
ative to the flooding of Everett
field for ice skating purposes.
1t was pointed out by Superin-
endent Edwards that when the
ground is flooded, water usu-
ally soaks in as fast as it is put
on. However there is a type of
spray which can be used, the
water freezing the minute it hits
the ground, thus insuring it's
where it is put. He as
sured board members that the
spray could be constructed in the
industrial arts department with
minimum cost for materials.
The go ahead sign was given
so it looks like Newark ice skat-
ing fans will have the opportun-
ity to enjoy themselves this

ed a total of $6172.65 collected

1t has recently been suggest
ed by the State Board for Vo-
cational Education that Newark
should expand it's defense pro-
gram to include intensive re-
fresher courses for persons on
Employment Service registers
in order to make them employ
able in defense industries spon-
sored by the government; as for
example, the Curtis-Wright Cor
poration near Port Columbus,
which will employ $500 men;
the Magazine Powder Plant at
Ravenna, Ohio; and the Patter-
son Army Depot at Fairfield,
Ohio, between Xenia and Day
ton.
In order to offer defense
training to people who are in
position to accept employment in
government defense industries,
Newark schools are proposing
the following plan, which was
tentatively approved Tuesday
night at the regular meeting OF
the Board of Education.
$50 a. m. to 400 p. m.-Reg-
ular program industrial arts.

Cunningham, who ran second
from the gun, finished a ,out yards
ahead of Chuck Fenske, former Wis
consin star, who set the pace until
VenZke too kover. Gene and Glenn
came off the last turn about yard
apart and the Kansan's famous f1n-
ish was only strong enough to erase
two-thirds of his deficit.
Well back all the way were the
other competitors, Wayne Rideout
of North Texas Teachers, Archie
San Romani, the other Kansas star,
and Luigi Beccali, who provided
Italy with the 1882 Olympic 1900
meter championship.

to meet officials:
I'm in the best shape of my ca
reer and promise you that I'll win
the mile if you permit me to start" "

the Manchester, Conn.,, veteran,

unable to answer when Lash

on the heat and waged stirring
battle over the last Is yards.
