MARYSVILLE
REDWOOD TO
MEET FRIDAY
Broadway, Magnetic
Tilt Is Top Attraction
Among County Games

Marysville high school will
meet Redwood high in the latter's
gymnasium in one of six basket
ball games in Union county, Fri
day night. The others will include:
New Dover at Darby.
York VS.. New California.
Magnetic Springs at Broadway,
Allen at Watkins.
Union at Woodstock.
The Marysville- Redwood fra
cas- will be a Mid-State league
game. Both MarySville and Rich
wood have lost to Sunbury, the
Monarchs early in the season and
Redwood, this past Tuesday
evening. Both Marysville and
Redwood have defeated Mt. Gil
cad, while the Monarchs have al
so won from Marion st. Mary in
League competition.
Both teams have followed 81
milar patterns, so far. Hard hit
by graduation, both Marysville
and Redwood have inexperienced
squads which have been showing
improvement as the season pro-
gressed. Add to this the tradition
al rivalry between the two schools
and red-hot basketball game is
in the making.
Among the county league con-
tests, fans will have their eyes
fastened in the Magnetic Springs
Broadway fracas which promises
plenty of excitement. When the
smoke from this battle clears a.
way followers of the sport in the
county should have a much bet
ter idea of how things may line
up, come tournament time.
Both are undefeated in League
play, although Magnetic dropped
its first of the season to Marseilles
last Friday in a non-League tilt
The two teams play the extreme
opposites in basketball. Broad
way plays a fast, quick-breaking
game and shoots at any time from
anywhere on the floor, almost
Magnetic plays slow, careful ball
prefering to work the ball in for
more certain shots.
Followers of each team are con-
fident of victory Friday, and both
schools appear about evenly
matched. At any rate, these two
and Redwood are considered the
top three teams of the county.

3 TRUCKS IN
WRECK HERE

No one was injured in three
truck collision miles north of
Marysville on the Marion rd. at
9:15 p. m. Wednesday, Highway
Patrolman H. C. Ramsey reported
this morning. Charges of parking
on the highway were filed against
driver of one of the trucks as a
result
John Ruhl, 90, Claiborne, driver
of one of the trucks, was fined
$40. and costs by Mayor Asman,
following the accident.
Ruhl was driving north in a
1916 Chevrolet truck belonging to
Darling & Co., and sideswiped a
truck heading south, driven by
Robert Hamilton, 90, of Spring
field.
After the accident, Ruhl left
his truck parked on the highway
while he went back to talk to
Hamilton. Shortly thereafter,
Bert Morris, AZ, Redwood Rt. 2,
driving truck for Cloverdale
Creamery, Milford Center, ran in
to the rear of Ruhls truck.
Morris told Patrolman Ramsey
that lights from an automobile ap-
preaching from the opposite dir
ection blinded him so that he was
unable to see Ruhl's truck until
too late to avoid the crash.

LOCAL GIRL
HAS SMALLPOX

First case of smallpox in about
a decade was reported this week
to the Union county Board of
Health.
DR.. T. R. Laughbaum, health
commissioner, said the victim was
Elizabeth Hobbs, a pupil in the
third grade of the west building
She is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Shelby Hobbs, w. Eighth st.
and Linden ave.
The Health Director urgently
suggested that any person who
has never been vaccinated against
small pox, or has not been vac
cinated within the past five years,
should be vaccinated at once.
The Board of Health has been
conducting vaccination cam
paign throughout Union county
schools, during the past fall, COM
pleting the project in the Marys-
vile schools only about six weeks
ago. During this campaign, which
was purely on a voluntary basis,
a large proportion of Union coun-
tvs boys and girls were vaccina-
ted or re-immunized, but there
were some who failed to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity.
The Hobbs girl is the third
smallpox case in this vicinity in
recent weeks. An Amlin man died
of the disease about six weeks
ago, and his son also contracted

ployees of the Union Screw Pro
duct Co. will come to this location
then the trailer will be moved to
O. M. Scott & Sons. The unit will
then be set up in the Marysville
high school auditorium for the re-
mainder of the week, and Mon
day, Jan. 27.
Schedules are being outlined,
and other preliminary work is be-
ing done.
''We feel this is one of the most
important steps over taken in I'm
ion county for the CONTROL of Tu-
berculosis" said William L. Cole
man, president of the Association.
Since we cannot depend upon
symptoms to warn us of TB, we
must turn to x-ray. By means of
x-ray, pictures can be taken of the
lungs. BY X-raying apparently
healthy people we can find the
unknown cases, and help them.
We hope that every adult will
want to participate in this wond-
erful health program.

173 Marriage Licenses
Issued Here In 1916

There were 173 marriage lie
enses issued by Probate Judge
John w. Daley and his deputies
during l946 check-up of records
in his office reveals. This is one
of the biggest years the Probate
Court has even had on marriages.
During 1945 only 113 licenses
were granted by the Court, while
the year before that, only 108
were issued.
More licenses were written in
November, 1916, than any other
month, Il being issued then. May,
1946 had 20 licenses granted
while June, supposedly the month
of brides" was way down the list
with only Is. Smallest month was
March, when only six licenses
were granted.
Return of service men during
the year is believed by probate
officials to be primarily respon-
Isible for the big increase in the
marriage license business. The
rush really started in December,
1945, when the veterans first be-
gan coming home in large num-
bers. Twenty-one licenses were
also written in that month.
First license of the ne w
year, 1916, was issued Jan. to
Michael Dumke jr., 26, St. Joseph,
Mich, and Magdalene Wachholz,
25, Milford Center Rt. l. Last
license of the year went Dec. 80
to Richard Lawson, "a, Marion,
and Mildred Wiley, %, Redwood.

three years on licenses follows:
