provement Committee sponsoring
the lamb pools at MarySVille, was
recently elected to the Board OF
Directors of the Buckeye Sheep
Association at an annual meeting
held in Columbus. The Buckeye
Sheep Association, now one year
old, is one of the first organiza-
tions in the country bringing to-
gether all of the interests affiliat-
ed with the sheep industry.
It's goal is to make the sheep
enterprise more profitable to
those parties interested in it in
any way in the State of Ohio.
Membership includes farm flock
owners, breeders of pure-bred
sheep, lamb feeders, representa-
tives of marketing agencies and
workers identified with research
and educational institutions.
There are three classificationS
memberships in the sheepmen's
organization: Individual member
ship available to farmers and
pure bred breeders; Association
membership held by such organ
izations as the state breed clubs,
and corporate membership held
by incorporated firms doing busi-
ness in the public market and
within the livestock industry. A
concession has been granted to
junior groups such as All Clubs
and F. F, A. Chapters, in that
association memberships are
available to the boys at a lower
membership fee.

CIV. Moore, Former Postmaster,
Storekeeper in Claiborne, Dies

The Rev. George w. Moore,
aged &c, former postmaster of
Claiborne and operator of its lead
ing general store for many years,
died at his home in Claiborne at
6:25 p. m. Saturday. He had been
failing in health for some time.
Mr.. Moore was born Nov. 2,
1862 in the village where he
carved an enviable career for
himself, the son of Joseph and

he left the Village, but returned

For more than so years after
that, he was postmaster of the
community, and owner of its
store. He started as a blacksmith
in the village of two or three
houses. Then he fell and injured
his back, which placed him on
crutches for three years.
With about Sc and while still
a semi-invalid, Moore purchased
a small stock of confectionS and
stationery, and by 1890 was able
to buy an established stock and
set up his business in three rooms.
For many years, Mr.. Moore had
the reputation of always being
willing to trust a customer at
least once. His policy led to pros
perity.
In 1885, Mr.. Moore resigned his
postmastership and retired from
active business.
He was married Sept. 80, 1887
to the former Belle Hit, who died
in 1910. Since then, a daughter,
Bernice, has kept house for her
father, coming home from college
to do so. He was member of the

Tax Collections
Show Big Decline

Sales tax collections in Union
County for the first two months
of l949 were almost $4,000 below
the total for the same period in
l948 according to a report re-
ceived from Don H. Ebright,
state treasurer.
The statement shows a total
sales tax collection of S24,234.59
as compared with S27,069.7l for
last year. The decrease is due to
the removal of sales tax on all
purchases below Al cents by the
Ohio Legislature.
Sales totaling S3,033.92 were
made in Union County during
the week ending Feb. %, l948 as
compared with S3,366.68 for the
week ending Feb. 26, l949.
This same trend is evident in
the figures for corresponding
counties, which excepting Cham
paign, all show a similar drop.
Collections for neighboring coun-
ties for the week ending Feb. %
with the equivalent figures for
l947 are as follows:
Champaign, $4,552.23 ($1,684.-
90); Delaware" S3,242.79 (3,859-
.73); Franklin, $l33,432.93 $685.

Madison, $3,145.63 (S3,793.34 /;

Rapid Adjustment
Collopy noted that the over
whelming majority of veterans
had made a rapid occupational
adjustment in the postwar period.
As of Dec. 81, 1948, only one out
of every II veterans who drew
unemployment benefits was ac-
tually paid the maximum in such
benefits.
The maximum under the SRA
program is $40 a week for 81
week period. But veterans filing
new claims under that program
were unemployed for an average
of only IA weeks.

MonarChs Lose
Tourney Finale
To London, 4O-39
Sensational Shooting
BY Raiders Gives Them
First District Title

Marysville High Schools bask-
etball team dropped 40-39 thrill
Ter to London's Red Raiders in
the district basketball champion
ship game at Westerville, Satur-
day night. The Monarchs made a
brilliant comeback in the third
period but couldn't hold on to the
slim lead they had at the begin
ming of the last quarter as the
London team began to hit with
deadly accuracy from the floor.
Coach Warren Widner said he
was pleased with his teams show
ing despite the fact that they lost.
Marysville outplayed London on
the floor and hit a very credit
able percentage of their shots.
The Monarchs hit on 35 percent
of their tries but this was dwarf
ed by London's shooting percent
age, a torrid A percent, with
most of the shots being from far
out on the floor.
London had displayed this
brand of ball throughout the
tournament as they downed Hill
lizards, Lancaster st. MaryS, Fred
ericktown, and our own Mon
archs. All four games were thrill
lerS with one single overtime
affair and the Fredericktown
game going into double overtime.
The Red Raiders simply had what
it takes to win when the chips
are down and they really earned
their first regional tournament
berth.
Few Fouls Called
The ball game was very well
played with few personal fouls
being called on either team. Not
one foul was called until more
than five minutes of play had
elapsed.
London took an early lead and
held on to it throughout the first
half. MarySville left the floor
trailing 20-16 at the intermission.
The third quarter was a different
story, however, as Buddy Hoff
man hit for 10 straight points and,
before London could stop the
spree, Marysville was ahead 29-
20. Then it was London's turn.
They tailed six quick points and
were behind only 1926 at the
end of the period.
From there on in it was a
thriller in every sense of the
word. Payne tied it up for Lon
don with a basket and a free
throw and French put them ahead
with another basket. Seconds
later John Dayton put the Mon
archs in a tie again and Hoffman
scored on a long shot to put
Marysville ahead 1881. At this
point the clock showed $50 re-
manning.
Lead Changed Often
London again took the lead as
Payne put in a foul shot and Culp
scored a basket. Hoffman tailed
again for Marysville to put them
ahead again 1884 with three
minutes left to play.
Don French came through with
two goals to give the Raiders a
1895 lead with only minute
and half left on the clock. Boyd
made a basket for Marysville,
Culp put in a free throw for Lon
don, and McCracken batted in a
basket with four seconds left to
play to bring the Monarchs with
in one point of the winners. Lon
don had no trouble using up the

BROOKLYN, Oct. Branch Rickey, President of the Brooklyn Dodgers, is ready to trade one of his outfielders for a front line pitcher.
 He mentioned this item at a press conference. Earlier Hickey was closeted with Fred Saigh, owner ot the St. Louis Cardinals, in a 90- minute session.

WESTERN EPIC ON ]. SCREEN TONIGHT,
 CAPITOL THEATRE

An exciting film, -Four Faces West" is at the Capitol Theatre tonight for three days and gives a glimpse of New Mexico in the 18SO's, when men of daring played dan gerously with law and order. The film, made by that dean of Vest srn producers, Harry Sherman, for Enterprise Studios, co-stars Joel McCrea, Frances Dee and Charles Bickford. It is United Artists re- lease.
 The action of the story, which was adapted from Eugene Manlove Rhodes Jolorful moved, "Paso Por Aqui," (They passed This Way) is fast-paced, with plenty of hard riding through some of the most beautiful country ever filmed, and the scene in which McCrea lassos md breaks a steer, then rides off on it into the desert to elude posse hot on his trail, is one of the most amazing bits of drama ever caught in Western.
 The climax, as unexpected as it is heart-catching, is one not easily forgotten. The capable direction was in the hands of Alfred E. Green, best remembered for his "The Jolson Story"
