Work on the new center was

The building was completed in
March, 1850. On the first floor
there are five classrooms, a small
auditorium, a library. a lounge
and the administrative offices

seating 400 persons, a music room,
kitchen, game room and five class
rooms. There is also an apart

The history of the Montgomery
County Jewish Community is
properly that of the two organi-
cations whose merging brought it
into being. B'nai Birth Mont

1912 at the Indian Spring Country
Club with 80 members. Louis
Cosdon was elected president. A

During the early days Of our
country, children going to school
through forests and meadows, often
saw the animal, they were never
molested, neither were they afraid
Through the years the animal has
lived at peace with his human
neighbors, leaving his flocks alone
When the cougar killed for fresh
meat, he usually attacked some
member Of the deer tribe. After
satisfying his hunger, he thrifty
cached the remainder.
Zoo keepers are loud in their praise
Of the cougar. They are never
vociferous in their demands, accept
ing with eager mildness whatever
is set before them and lying down
later to take a nap. In their natu-
raj habitat, the cougar is a wide
ranger. He is silent, only loud
growl is heard unless at courting

ing. His mate seeks seclusion in q

They are large kittens clothed in

until they are 18 or 20 days old
when they are teething. This is an
ordeal. Many pass on at this time.
In ZOOS, the proud mother likes
to show her twins to her beloved

the late William Blackburne, head
keeper, spoke lovingly of the cougar

So many wonder why the cougar
has been given such a long, massive
tail. Even the largest tiger can
not equal the size of the pendulum

It appears to be a gadget to swing
from side to side to evince salts
faction with his world. Until we
ARE on more friendly terms with
the cougar, we merely guess at his

Opening lead, queen of hearts.
After making, its home in New
York for 20 years, the master in

started on its tour of the Nation
In February, when the event was
contested for the first time in
Chicago.
In this contest, conducted an
nually, 56 of the countrys lead
ing tournament players are invited
to compete in a five-session event
drawing a new partner after every
four deals.
Still another new name was in
scribed on the trophy when my
teammate Sidney Silodor of Phil
adelphia, who had not received a
call during the first four laps, came
flashing down the home stretch
with great burst of speed and
won the event in a decisive manner
A hand on which he demon
strated careful tournament tech
nique in order to score overtricks
in his game contract is shown to-
day.
1t was tempting to open the South
hand with a bid of two no-trump,
but, inasmuch as it contained only
81 points in high cards, Silodor
decided to make, an Introductory
bid of one club. After Norths re-
sponse of one diamond the Jump
rebid to three no-trump was clearly
marked.
West naturally opened the queen
Of hearts, which was taken with
the king. Most of the other play
ers who held this hand, counting
eight cashable tricks, decided to set
up the ninth trick at once by lead
ing to the queen of spades. But
Silodor saw the possibilities of max
ing overtricks without risk. That
play was to cash the ace of dia-
monds first. If both opponents fol-
low low, then a spade is led to the
queen, establishing the ninth trick.
But if by chance one of the ad-
verse hands contained a singleton
diamond honor, the spade suit
could be abandoned in favor of
building up extra tricks In dia-
monds.
At trick two, he therefore, played
the ace of diamonds and when East
contributed generously he continued
with the suit. West took the queen
and, mindful of East's violent sig
nal of the nine of spades, cashed
that trick for his partner, who
would otherwise have had 1t put to
bed by declarer.
The score of $50 points was the
best recorded on this deal.

Veterans taking CT Bill insti-

Of their 1850 earnings must be

Failure to submit the reports

The reports serve a double pur-

Redwood to Meet
BYhalia: Broadway and
Union Consolation Tilt

The 1851 basketball champion
shipi of Union county will be de-
cided this evening in the Marys-
vile high school gym.
Battli n G for championship
honors will be Redwood end By
halia, two north-end rivals who
will probably stage one of the
most thrilling championship
games ever witnessed. The Tigers
defeated Byhalia by only one
point in the regular season, and
the Washington township leads
are determined that they can win
this time. Redwood is equally
firm in their belief that they will
repeat.
Contending for No. berth from
Union county in the district
tournament will be Broadway and
Union, and this should also be a
top-notch game.
Broadway defeated Darby last
night, 72-59, before a near capa-
city crowd, and thus gained the
right to play Union in the conso-
lation finales of the Union County
tournament, Thursday. Union up
set Raymond, 59-41, in the night
cap.
Union and Broadway battled for
the right to play in the district
tournament at 7 pm. Thursday
The second game of the evening
pits Byhalia against Redwood for
the county championship. Both
Redwood and Byhalia will go to
the district event.
The Broadway-Darby game was
close all the way until the fourth
quarter. Loren Nicol tied the score
at the end of the first quarter,
1918, in the last second with a
long, desperation shot. Clancy Nc
Mcmahon and Bob Ritchie turned
on in the last quarter and that
spelled doom for Darby.

cooperate with the company in
helping bring better telephone
service to the community.
Last week the company was be-
seiged with an epidemic of COM

cause they kept getting wrong

AS one of the causes of faulty

of the telephone facilities, particu-
larly by women. Mr.. Palmer said
last week when 400 lines were tied
up he checked the calls, and found
that without exception the persons

$4,000 Goal Set
Tn Polio Drive

With the Union county polio
goal set at $4,000 for the coming
year, Mrs. Aida Davis, county
chapter chairman, urges all citi-
zens to contribute all they can
during the fund raising drive be-
cause "the need is greater than
ever"
Mrs. Davis said, Last year we
paid $4,000 from Union county
funds for treatment and care of
seven Union county polio victims.
And there is still owing on last
years accounts a total of So, ,497.82.
"This means in effect, that we
must meet our goal in order to
pay incurred expenses, to continue
treatments for the three polio vic
Tins still under treatment, and
still have enough left over to treat
any additional cases that might
develop during the coming year"
every day that a patient is un-
dergoing treatment for polio the
cost is at least SIS per day" she
added. "In addition, braces cost
5000 a set, and all of our present
polio cases are brace cases. On
this basis, we will need at least
$1,000 to maintain our present
patients next year. In additon,swe
need reserve sums to care for any
new cases that may develop next
year"
Mrs. Davis said she wished to
express gratitude to Harry and
Gladys Cooper, directors of the
fund drive, and all others in the
county who have aided in raising
funds and those who have do
mated.
The polio drive will end March
13 with the Marysville Polio jam
boree, at which time it is hoped
that the necessary goal will have
been reached.

The Monarchs' victory in the
Varsity game was not an easy
one, by any means, although final
margin was fairly comfortable.
For three quarters, the Cardinals
almost matched Marysville point

rolling in the final stanza to put
the game on ice.
The Marysville offense was
hampered by Worthington's air.
tight zone defense, which the willy
Ray Heischman, Cardinal coach,
shifted several times. AS a result,
the Monarchs had a hard time in
getting their plays rolling.
Even though they were not
scoring as much as in other games,
the Monarchs still played good
basketball. General floor play
was good and rebound work on
the bankboards was especially
good. 1t was here, in fact, that
Marysville outplayed Worthing-
ton and actually won the game.
Bill Coder topped the scoring
parade for Marysville with 81
points. Bud Hoffman, usually high
scorer for the Monarchs, was held
to six points but was as valuable
to the team by setting up the
plays from in front of Worthing-
toms zone defense. Charley Nc
Cracken, John Evans and Jim
Kleiber also contributed some
excellent floor play, both on of
fense and defense, which was
material factor in the team vic
tory.

Another source of trouble was
school children during that period
when they were not in school due
to the bad weather and slippery
roads. At that tim e, children
would get on the line to talk to

numbers for the fun of it.
