Sumably it is at about the go per-
cent mark, meaning there is still
much work to be done Workers
have had some bad weather and
numerous conflicts but they are
now going into the stretch to fin
iSh a job which must be done and
speedily.
Union county has made its quota
in every drive except the first,
which was actually consummated
before machinery had been set up
here. We have thus made good in
every drive since and in overall
sales have actually surpassed our
six drive totals.
1t is a bit hard to keep quotas
separated but most stress is placed
this time upon "E" Bond sales. In
the county our assignment is
S188,OO0. Reason for putting spec
ial emphasis upon this series is that
they are more apt to be held to
maturity owing to the greater in
terest yield Furthermore they are
obtainable in smaller units.
When the Victory Loan drive
ends it is possible that many per-
sons will have i'm some congested
drawer at home some Savings
Stamp cards, partially filled, but
never actually converted into
paying investment Now is the time
to finish them out and convert into
bonds.
AS Christmas gifts War Bonds
are without an equal. They repre-
sent a sacrifice, a patriotic service
and a thoughtful remembrance.
They are better than cash, with
the same fleXibility but less likely
to be spent foolishly. For a dis
charged veteran what could be
more appropriate than Victory
Bond, for a youngster with college
years ahead, for newlyweds with
deferred necessities to buy, for
parents needing a secondary re-
serve.
Let's show our defeated enemies
that we believe in finishing the job,
Let's show our own veterans that
we've stayed in the fight to the
last ditch, Buy Victory Bonds.
Better yet, buy them now!

LAMB POOL Still
PROVING POPULAR

Five hundred and thirty-six head
of sheep and lambs were marketed
through the lamb pool held at the
New York Central Yards in Ma
rysville on Nov. 81, according to
Guy L. Green, president of the Un-
ion county Sheep Improvement as
.sociation. Thirty-two .Sheepmen,
many of whom had consigned to
former pools, brought in these
sheep and lambs to take advantage
of the pool system of marketing,
Mr.. Green said.
1t was expected, from some
quarters, that the use of other
meats through the Thanksgiving
season, would perhaps cause a sag
in lamb prices; however, choice
lambs brought SIG per hundred
weight with good ones selling at
SIS. Fair to good lambs brought
S14 per hundredweight. with hte
common and poorer grades bring
ing from $3.50 down. Some 67-
pound feeders brought $11.50 and
went to local feeders for finishing.
Prices given do not include pay
ments of S1.50 per hundred weight
on lambs weighing from 65 to 80
pounds, and S2.15 on those weigh
ing over 90 pounds. On December
l, these payments will advance and
65 to 90 pound weights will COM
mand a So per hundred weight pay
ment, with those over 80 pounds
receiving $2.65 per hundred weight.
The next pool will held on Dec.
6 at the New York Central yards
in Marysville, with Ben Roahen
and Walter Staley in charge of
the wards.

.MONARCHS TO OPEN
CAGE SEASON AT
LONDON FRIDAY
This Years Quintet To Be
Short, But Fast, Good
Shots; Plenty Experienced

Marysville high school cagers
will open their 1945-'46 esaSon
Friday night when they go to
London to meet the Red Raiders Of
London high school. The game will
be played in the London Armory,
with the Reserve tilt called for
7:30 pm.
The Monarchs, under their new
coach, Warren Widener, have been
working for three weeks to perfect
their offensive and defensive play,
and are gradually rounding into
shape.
Chief disadvantage under which
the locals will be operating will
be lack of height Not one of the
first squad will be over six feet tall,
and any team playing without the
services of at least one tall boy,
especially with the jack-rabbit
game that basketball has become
these days, is under a distinct
handicap.
To compensate for this, how
ever, Marysville will be- fast and
have pretty good eye for the
basket, Coach Widenef thinks.
They handle the ball well, and dis
play excellent: teamwork in the
quick break Moreover, the squad
has plenty of experience, every
boy having been in plenty of court
action last year. ~,
On of the Varsity quintet will
be such performers as Noel How
ard, Don Smith, Leo Robinson,
Gordon Snyder and Junior Red)
Grimes, from The. first team last
year; Dean Scheiderer and Nanny
Rogers, who were, outstanding ca
gers on the Reserve team; and
Frank Diehl, a tranSferee from
Springfield who was on the high
school Varsity squad in that city
last season.
With speed and ball handling inn
portant factors in today's brand
of basketball, the Monarchs should
be tough opponent for anyone,
and will go long way toward %
vercorning the ihapdicap placed up
on them by taller teams.
The, seasons schedule for this
year is as follows.
Nov. 30 At London
Dec. Z Mechanicsburg.
Dec. 11-At WorthingtOn.
