Visitors Are Jailed

People come into Dickinson
County for many different pur-
poses Now and then, some of
them get more than they bargain
for.
Such was the experience of
party from Coeburn and vicinity
who came over Monday. They
travelled in car that bore Mas
sachusetts license plates, which
is bit unusual for these parts.
The purpose of the visit was ap-
parently to make merry, and hav
ing stopped about the Playground,
the party proceeded toward the
business with will. Reports
kept drifting into town that four
men were fighting in a ditch,
with one woman looking on.
Deputy sheriff Oakley Stanley
and Joe, Lee Baker, village cop,
went to investigate the unusual
conduct By the time they got to
the scene of confusion, the visi-
tors had taken off for other
points. Back in Clintwood, the Of
ficers were tipped off by Johnnie
Deloach, taximan, that the roll
licking crew had gone toward
Foxtown. The officers followed
and easily ran down the quarry
on the dead-end road
The four men and one woman
Were registered at the Walled
Off Hotel and there they repose.

enson County Hospital of injur-
les received in a car-truck COLI

headed toward Fremont
Wilson said that the impact de
molished the left side of the auto
mobile and slightly damaged the
left front fender and side bed OF
the truck. Neither of the vehicles,
he said, was overturned.
Gross made a $4,000 bond to ap
pear in court to answer an invol-
untary manslaughter charge.
ToIbert's death was attributed
to internal injuries and to a pos
sibly fractured skull He was a
resident of Tookland, near Grun-
dy, and had recently attended an
automobile body repair school at
Osastomie, Kansas. He had been
to Clintwood on the day of his
death and obtained employment
as a mechanic with the Chevrolet
Garage here to begin work July
8. He was returning home when
the accident occurred.
The hearing for Gross in trial
justice court here Tuesday was
continued until July "a on &C.

TIVIS SOLDIER

With The U S. Army In Korea,
pfc. Clinard Stanley of Tivis
is one of those guys GTs are call
ing "the Miracle makers of Ko-
rea."
The Virginia private, menu
Der of the fighting 185th Engin-
eer combat battalion, is helping
pull off an engineering miracle
on the mountainous central front
which has provided the death
knell for Communist China's plan
to push Allied forces into the Vel
low Sea.
The 195th, Pvt. Stanley said,
fhas built air strips, roads, and
bridges where they just couldn't
be built. And the Battle of Mud
isn't making the job any easier
but it's being done. China's hopes
that the UN offensive would bog
down in the mountains are pretty
well fouled up"
Never before, in the history of
American warfare, have engin-
GERS faced so many foes; sub
Arctic cold, biting winds, infiltrat
ing Red troops, guerillas,. snow,
Shetland now torrential rain
fall, mud and sweltering heat.
But each of these enemies in
turn have been decisively defeat

lei.

ClintWOOd
Splits With

By CLAUDE SHORT

ClintWood's team really spark
ed, for change, last Saturday at
Appalachia. The Wise County
lads seemed to go into the game
with too much confidence This
attitude changed as Claude Full
er, the a1l-time great, kept the
Appalachia hitters bemused with
his assortment of curves, twist
ers, sliders, and change of pace.
Clintwood started out with a
bang, scoring four runs in the
first frame. The score kept grow
ing as the game went on, while
Appalachia tried in vain to solve
Fuller's offerings. The Old Mas
ter was aided by his teammates
in the field, who turned in splen
did performance At that, Fuller
allowed only four scattered hits.
Carlos Short slammed a three
run home in the fifth inning.
Although Clintwood lost Sun
days game, played at home, it
was never dull. Habe Hammonds
started on the mound but gave up
four runs in short order. Then
Romans came in to put out the
fire. He was not the best of fire
men, and Fuller came in to re-
lieve him Appalachia exploded
on the Old Master for three runs.
Then young Fred Sutherland took
over. He kept the visitors help
lessly swinging f o several
frames at his smokeball but fin
ally got into trouble. Then Ro-
mans came in again to end the
game in good style. The final
score was Appalachia, 7; Clint
wood, 4.
The game was delight to the
ClintWood fans, who could enjoy
the lop-sided score in their favor
because they had lived on a most
lean diet in the past. Final score:
Clintwood, Is; Appalachia, /.
The Little League is still going
strong, but the kids are hardly
strong enough to handle the Clint
wood Scrubs yet. Although the
boys were playing against men,
the game was no pushover. Sew
eral of the youngsters show lot
of promise.

BIDS ASKED FOR SURFACING
BREAKS ROAD

The State Highway Department
has announced that bids will be
received for reinforcing and seal
ing about ten miles of Route 80,
beginning at the Kentucky line
and running toward Haysi. 1t is
anticipated that the work will be
done in the fall to prevent the
usual ravages of winter weather.
In one respect, this news is not
so cheering to Dickinson County.
1t would normally be expected
that such project as this would be
left to the convict road force, now
in camp at Sand Lick. However,
there are rumors to the effect that
this camp will be moved when
the project on Frying Pan is fin
ished.

Milton Haynes came back to
Pine Creek on the first day of
July after an sabsence of thirty
one years During all that time,
half of the average American
life, he hadn't heard a word from
his peple. He didn't know that his
family had moved away, that his
father had died eighteen years
ago, and that the members of the
household had broken away to
form new homes. The brooding
genius of Hawthorne could have
made much of this story, for it
is surely high amng the unusual
manifestations of the human
spirit AZ,
He left here in the roaring days
of 1919. We had just finished the
bloody task of making "the world
safe for democracy" and were
turning to rend Woodrow Wilson,
who led us in that crusade. The
Noble Experiment of nation
wide prohibition, supplemented by
the 18th Amendment and the Vol
stead Act, went into effect on
July first of that year The flap
per, who would be considered
merely quaint today, was just APP
pearing on the scene to shock
her elders Votes for all women in
the United States were just a
year ahead.
Yes, that was long time ago!
II
Dickinson County was bit
woody in those days, and proud Of
it 1t wasn't exactly rough, just
loud and letting off lot of steam.
Moonshining was the chief indus
try, and the shindig was the So
cial outlet. Some of the present
pillars of state and church were
not then known for their piety.
There was not single all wealth
er road in the county, and mid
winter mud was knee-deep in
ClintWood. A few automobiles
braved the way from Clintwood
to Fremont or Coeburn from
April until October. There was
no electric power outside of the
villages where it was generated.
Yes, times have changed and the
country has changed, right here
at home since those days.
