Union Bond Issue Only One oils
Question In County For Building

control of the building must be
vested in the Board of Education.
However, an advisory committee
will be appointed by the Memorial
Association to assist in its use.
Will Waste No Funds
While the ballot calls for a bond
issue of nearly $125,000, the COM
mittee does not anticipate such an
expenditure. The building will not
be started until costs have gone
back down, and there will be no
money wasted on unnecessary
frills.
Even if the full amount was to
be used, however, the tax required
to pay the bonds would amount to
only 2 mills, which is 20 cents per
$100 of real estate valuation. Thus,
property owner whose real eS-
tate was appraised on the tax dup
licate at $4,000 would pay only $40
in additional taxes. 1t must be re-
membered, however, that only
such bonds as necessary to pay
for the building will be sold, which
means that it will not be necessary
to levy the full amount of taxes.
A community recreation and
gathering center which the Mem
orial building will provide is Union
townships greatest need. For in
stance, it was necessary to discon-
tinue the Union Township Farm
ers' Institute, once one of the best
in the county, largely because no
suitable place was available in
which to hold it.
Cagers in MarysvilIe
The Union Local basketball
team this year will be forced to
play all of its home games in the
Marysville high school gymnasium
because the Union gym, never
very good or adequate, is now un-
fit for use. Even all practice sesS-

ions must be held in the Marysville
gym, which means that Union
team will get to practice but twice
week this season and will place
them at considerable disadvantage
in trying to compete with other
schools of the county, most of
whom do now have fine, new gym
naSiumS.
The only auditorium in Union
township, where plays, concerts
and other such entertainments can
be given, is the small room in the
school building, seating about 300
persons.
The Memorial building will be
designed so that it will be a self
contained structure. In addition to
the adequate basketball court with
ample seating facilities, it is also
planned to have a kitchen, stage
or platform at one end or side,
shower and dressing rooms and
rest rooms, a heating plant, and
other necessary facilities.
Ideal Memorial
AS a result, it may be used for
about any type of community ac-
tivity Imaginable, in addition to
making an athletic gymnasium and
youth recreation center.
Statues, monuments, and other
such types of memorials are fit
ting in their place, but they do not
form the ideal war memorial which
the proposed Union township build
ing will provide. This building will
be something which can be used
every day in the year, and some
thing from which the veterans
themselves. and their children, will
gain direct and continuing bene-
fit.
Morever, it will bring the Union
township school system up to a
level achieved by most of the
others in Union county several
years ago.

Last Friday, if you had been
in the halls of the high school, you
would have thought everyone had
lost his last friend. The reason
was that night we were to have
our big homecoming game with
Mt. Gilead and it was pouring
down rain. And as no one wished
to be drowned in mud again as
they were at the London game, the
game was postponed until Monday.
But then things weren't so bad
because we still got to have the
big Homecoming Dance with the
queen Mary Lou Jenny and her
two attendants, Ethel Monroe and
jamie RauSch, presiding. The dance
was held in the recreation room
of the high school and lasted from
800 to 11:30 pm. The recreation
with footballs, pennants and maple
room looked mellow, decorated
leaves. AS we came to the dance
we voted for king. About half
way through the evening it was
announced that Dale Bell was
chosen as king. Mary Lou and Dale
ascended their thrones and the
two attendants placed the crowns
on their heads. Mr.. Riser then dis
played one of his many talents,
that of fortune telling. He really
was very good at it, so good in
fact that Marysville might loose
a teacher due to the fact that he
has had quite a few offers from
various carnivals. The rest of the
evening was spent in dancing to

6. Good schools are the biggest
asset a community can have.
In response to an inquiry from
many members of the committee
as to what salaries are being paid
teachers in MarysVille, the fol-
lowing figures were disclosed by
Supt. H. w. Carr:
1. Teachers in Marysville re-
ceive an average salary of $1748
compared with the average of
$2010 for all teachers in Ohio.
2. From a report issued last
week by the Ohio Education as
Sociation, teachers salaries have
not increased to meet increased
costs of living. The pocketbook of
the average Ohio school teacher
has been reduced, through income
taxes and a 46 per cent rise in the
cost of living, to the point where
the teachers buying power is $3.50
less now than in 1889.

Although there will be Is bond
issues and tax levies on the bal
lots in various parts of Union
county at next Tuesdays election,
only one of these will be for a per-
manent building as war memor-
ial.
That is the Union township
Memorial gymnasium, which will
appear on the ballot in the form
of bond issue of $124,808.
Although the ballot sets it up as
a gymnasium building, sponsors of
the project have planned a struc-
ture which will be available to any
group in Union township for any
type of activity. 1t will be con-
structed as a memorial to the men
and women who have served from
Union township in all wars.

The Citizens committee for the
3-mill school levy met in the Ii
, brary of the Senior high school
Tuesday night, the Rev. (. j. Coed
eking, chairman, presiding. This
committee is composed of seventy
seven persons who will canvass the
entire Marysville school district
with material explaining the need
for this additional school levy. The
work of this committee will be
completed during the next few
days preceding election, so that
all voters will be fully informed
regarding the financial condition of
the schools. Voters are urged to
vote yes" on the school levy next
Tuesday because:
1. The 2-mill levy which was
approved in 1941 expires this year
and has to be voted on again. The
3-mill levy represents this 2-mill
levy, which you have been paying
for the past five years, plus an
additional mill to meet increased
costs of operation and unanticipa-
ted expenditures. This increased
cost to each taxpayer will amount
to 10 cents for each $100 of valua-
ton. Without this increased reve-
nue., the schools cannot operate.
2. The average cost per pupil
for school operation in Ohio ex-
empted villages is $113. The cost
per pupil in Marysville is $101. .49.
Marysville is $11.51 less than the
average. School expenses, like all
others, have increased.
3. Free textbooks, like other
operations, are costing more now
than ever before. Free textbooks,

ton, are required by law.

Marysville high school will

will be hOnOred during the game.
On basis of past performance
es, Marysville is figured to have
not too much trouble with Sun
bury, but one can never tell.
Upsets have been known to hap
pen with mOnotOnOus regularity
in the past, and MarysVille
could be the victim of another
one, should they have an "Off-

At any rate, a good football
game is predicted and another

once again, the MOnarchs headed
toward the Indians goal. This
, time, however, they were denied
the score as Gilead stiffened and
held Marysville for downs on the
visitors 15-yard stripe. But once
they had the ball, Mt. Gilead
couldn't do anything with it, so
punted as the half ended
The locals tailed twice in the
third period
MarySville kicked off to start
the second half, but Mt Gilead
gained only a short distance, al
though they did manage to get
first down on a pass play. But
the Indians soon had to punt, with
the locals putting the ball in play
on their own 28 yard line.
Score Twice Quickly
Downfield they started once
more, with Sophomore Bud White,
who took Hills place when the
latter was injured, Bell and Ev-
erett Alexander doing most of the
leather Juggling. The Monarchs
collected five more first downs on
the way, the last coming on Gill
ead's 3-yard line. From here, Bell
/ smashed across between right
tackle and guard for the six-point-
er. This time, Mt. Gilead broke
through to block the kick.
Almost before the crowd had
gotten seated after this touch
down, Marysville scored again. Mt.
Gilead couldn't gain following the
kickoff and punted, but this time
the kick was blocked and Dayton
recovered for Marysville on the
Mt Gilead 4S. On the very first
play, Rogers passed to Bell who
did some mighty fancy running to
score again.
This time, the place kick was
wide, but Marysville was ahead
26 to 0. The quarter ended two
plays later with Mt. Gilead having
the bali on their own 80.
Shortly after the final period
began, Coach Wenzel retired his
first team from active duty, send
ing in the second Stringers, and
then it was Mt. Gilead'S turn to
score.
Passes Pay Off
The visitors started tossing pass
es all over the lot, and it wasn't
long before Pete Campbell con-
nected on a long one to John Ten
nant, who caught it behind the
goal for a touchdown. The at
tempted place kick was no good.
Now it was Marysville's turn
to fail to gain, and the locals punt
ed. More passes were diShed up by
the Indians, resulting in some nice
gains which put the ball on the
locals four-yard mark. H Here
the Campbell to Tenant combina-
tion again paid off for the final
score of the game. The placekick
for extra point was blocked.
The final touchdown came with
less than a minute to play, and
the game ended before the Mon
.archs could run any plays at all
following the kickoff.

AS long as the first team was in
the game, Mt Gilead could get
exactly no place The Indians
made but two first downs the first
three quarters of the game, and
one of these was with the aid of
an off-sides penalty on the Mon
archS.
MarySville'S line again played
the aggressive, alert type of ball
which has marked its performance
es all season long. 1t was far Su-
perior to the Mt Gilead forward
wall, although the visitors were
trying and hard-every inch of
the way
Comparison OF Teams
The first time each team got
ahold of the ball demonstrated the
difference between the two. The
Indians kicked off at the start of
the game and MarySville marched
straight down the field to a touch
down, scoring when the game was
only four minutes old.
After this touchdown, the Mon
archs kicked off, and in exactly
four plays, Mt Gilead had ad-
vanced the ball only one yard,
being forced to punt on the fourth
down.
The first touchdown was scored
by Harold Hill, who turned in
some splendid running until an
injury in the second quarter forced
him out of the game The curly
haired lad slammed over off left
tackle from eight yards out, eli
making a drive of 81 yards which
racked up three first downs on
the way.
Bells Place Kick Scores
1t was just hard, straight foot
ball for short but steady gains
which resulted in the tally, and
Dale Bell applied the finishing
touches by place-kicking the extra
point. The ball went square be-
tween the uprights to give the
MonarchS a 10 lead in less than
four minutes time.
After Mt Gilead was unable to
gain and punted to the MonarchS,
they quickly regained possession of
the ball by intercepting one of
Nanny Rogers passes. However,
the Indians once again got no.
where and punted over the goal.
The Monarchs then started
another drive which carried over
into the second quarter and paid
off in touchdown No. 2 shortly
after the period started This
score came on a pass play, Rogers
to Johnny Dayton. The latter
scooped in the ball behind the
goal line as a Mt Gilead lad de-
flected the ball into his arms. Once
