waiting arms of Bob Smith near
the 15-yard line. The capable
end never slowed up as he
sprinted the remaining yards
for the winning six points. Bill
Craig booted the extra point to
put the clincher on the bitter
fought battle.
The 5000 or more homecom-
ing fans can never forget those
two passes. Eighty yards in just
two plays. Those beautiful ae-
rials may win a championship
for Newark. The plays gave
Newark it's third straight league
win and it's sixth straight vic

Newark and Marietta had
been battling tooth and nail.
Both Tigers and the Wildcats
failed to score in the first half,
but the Cats tailed their first
touchdown in the third quar-
ter only to see the Tigers come
right back in the same period
and count a touchdown of their
own.
Both the Wildcats touchdowns
were made by air, Smith count
ing both of them. Marietta's
touchdown was also scored by
the air route. The Tigers gain
ed 131 yards by rushing while
Newark could pick up only 30,
but Marietta made most of their
yardage between the two %
yard lines. The Tigers also
picked up II first downs to New
ark's two and Marietta gained
a net yardage of 203 yards to
the Wildcats $50, but Marietta
didn't play smart football and
the Wildcats did. Also the Tig-
ers didn't have much anti-pass
defense.

General, sulked while this great
work was being done. Davey
opened the schools and guaran-
teed their financial stability. Da-
vey gave definite State taxes to
the schools. Bricker took these
taxes away from the schools, and
upset the program.
Davey left six and half mil
lion dollars in the Public School
Fund. 1t was pledged by law to
the payment of school notes.
Bricker wrongfully took from the
schools this six and half mil
lion, and put it in his General
Revenue Fund, to make his own
budget look better. This was a
grossly immoral act, even if it
was done by law.
The democratic state platform
says definitely that the obnoxious
sales tax will not be repealed
until a satisfactory substitute is
found. Then, and only then, will
it be repealed. The schools and
every function of the State gov
ernment will be protected. The
schools will be safer under Da-
vey, than under Bricker's finan-
cial juggling.
Certain lobbyists have been
using the schools to keep the
iniquitous sales tax saddled on
the people. These lobbyists op-
crate slyly behind the scenes. An

Center Marking
On Licking Roads

Use of so-called luminous
paint for marking the center
lines on heavily travelled roads
where the night accident rate is
higher than it should be, has
been launched by the Ohio de-
partment of highways.
"By the use of this type of
center line marking wherever
the night accident rates show a
tendency to grow, we hope to
cut down the number of accidents
and aid motorists in keeping on
their side of the highways after
dark" said Harry E. Neal, chief
