WestbOund
Baseball Series
Is At Standstill

The baseball series, designed to de-
termine the winner of the Upper
Potomac Baseball league remains at
a standstill. Oakland won the first
game from Crellin. The second was
supposed to have been played last
Sunday but was rained out.
In the meantime Oakland players
were notified that Crellin would not
play the second game. Elk Garden,
during this time was still protesting
that the game which Oakland played
at Elk Garden a few weeks ago was
not legal. President of the league, J.
w. Owens, has not called a meeting
of league officials, since it is neces-
sary for 60 percent to be in attend
ance before any action can be taken,
and it is concluded that enough of the
team representatives of the seasons
losers will turn up at the meeting,
since the season is over and interest
is low.
Members of the Oakland team are
declaring that they have completed
the season as far as they are con-
cerned, and there it stands.

week, pending settlement of differ
ences between oprators and union Of
ficials.

tinuing to operate and thus far no
disturbances have been reported.

from the UNIV health and welfare
fund had been suspended.

take home pay since they have just
passed through one of the toughest
summers for miners in about twelve
years. More than half the miners in
the region have been idle due to slack
orders for coal.

COMMISSIONERS
FILE Demurrer
Declare Attempt TO Prevent
Construction OF Schools Is
'Insufficient In Law"

The County Commissioners this
week through their attarneys filed a
demurrer to the suit brought by
George f. Coddington, Ronald E.
McIntire, Jasper Myers, Clifford
Friend and others, in which the latter
are attempting to prevent the Com
missioners from continuing with
plans to erect two new high schools
in the county.
The demurrer filed September 10,
in the Circuit Court, states that the
declaration of the plaintiffs is "bad
in substance and insufficient in law"
Neil c. Fraley, w. w. Dawson and
W. R. Offutt signed the demurrer as
attorneys. The court must now rule
on whether or not the demurrer will
be sustained or rejected. If sustained
the suit will be null and void If re-
jected the Commissioners will be re-
quired to file a reply to the declara-
ton.
the Commissioners be permanently
enjoined from expending money pro-
vided in the recent act of the legis-
lature in constructing new school
buildings at or near Oakland and the
Cove.
The 1947 law gave the County Com
missioners authority to borrow ST.
100000 and to use the proceeds, to-
gether with funds levied and collected
under prior chapter, passed in 1915,
for the purpose of acquiring sites,
erecting and equipping school build
ings and building additions to exist
ing school buildings and equipping
the same.
The suit alleges that the county
commissioners would use money in
tended for improvement or construc-
ton of high schools already existing.
