Marriages Show Drop
In Robson In 1910

LUMBERTON, Jan. 3.-Peace-
time compulsory military service
didn't hasten the trip to the altar
for Robson county's young folks
if 1910 marriage statistics of the
register of deeds office here are
any indication.
Register Nash R. Kinlaw said
today a total of IS marriage
licenses were issued in 1910 as
compared with 81 in 1889.
He said the state law requiring
physical examination before ap-
plication for license cut down some

South Carolina border, which
state does not require the exami-
nation.

loafing at slightly higher levels dur.
ing the greater part of today's mar
ket, hit a last-minute rallying stride
behind steels and motors that boost.
ed prices for favorites 1 to more
than 2 points.
Volume picked UP slightly in the
final hour but it still was far from
heavy. The revival in the automotive
and metal groups stiffened prices
in other departments although many
pivotal stocks advanced only small
fractions and a wide assortment
we're at a standstill.
The Associated Press average of
50 issues emerged with a net gain
of 4 of a point, equqalling the up
turn of Monday and more than wip-
ing out yesterdays decline of 2.
Transfers totalled sos, 040 shares
compared with 527,47O the day be-
fore.
Board rooms found nothing out
standing in the news to account for
the belated upswing. Talk was heard,
however, of stable British holdings
of steels and motors, which were up
for liquidation, being taken over by
private syndicates. It was recalled
that $1,000 shares of Texas Corp.
we're sold over the counter" yes
terday after the close, apparently
from British account. Belief that
both the motor and steel divisions
would be greatly benefited if the
threat of foreign sales were lifted
from the market was thought to
have caused some buyers to rein
state commitments in these cate.
sories.
Many potential purchasers con-
tinued to stand aside pending dis
posal Of the reserve boards antrim
flation recommendations and the de-
livery of presidential messages to
congress expected to clarity the de-
Tense program, the amount Of the
nations forthcoming tax bill and
the question Of just how near the
country is to actual participation in
the war. The good business outlook
accounted for part of the revived
optimism, it was suggested.
Bethlehem Steel gained 2 ga
points U. S. steel 2 3-S, General
Motors and Chrysler 2 1-2 each, q.
S. Industrial Alcohol 2 3-S and Union
Pacific 2 1-3. savage Arms jumped

H. With largest Squad Ever Pointed for Football Start Tomorrow
Caught Off Guard Lost Year,
Manhattan Pinned to Make
1t Hot for G. w. Tonight

The starting line is more uncertain.
Johnny Picco, veteran end, and Dan
Snyder, junior tackle, we're out of
the opening competition due to in
juries, and their presence in the
lineup at the starting whistle is
doubtful. Each had knee 4.ljury.
Picco has come along faster this
week than Snyder.
Murphy probably will replace
Snyder. If Picco also is benched, Dan
Douglas will start at left tackle,
Hank Agusiwicz and Ellis Hall at
guards and Don Seibert, the bios
soming star at center.
Manhattan will rely on much the
same lineup that carried it to a
20-13 victory over st. Bonaventure
last Saturday. Charley McNulty
and Frank Kiesecker, both of whom
played against the Colonials last
year, will bear the brunt of the
Jasper attack.
On the G. w. bench tonight will
sit Joe Gordon, New York Yankee
second baseman, with his old friend
and coach, Bill Reinhart. Gordon
star of the opening World Series
game, played baseball under Rein
hart at the University of Oregon.
Tonights game will be played al
the Polo Grounds with a crowd OF
10000 expected.
