Valinotti, only sophomore,
would undoubtedly have seen a
lot of action on the varsity this
year. He was brought back to Ma
gruder Hospital for X-rays and
treatment where it was disclosed
that his ankle was fractured.
The Redskin varsity lost go to
the Truckers in the second half
of the Preview. The contest would
have been much closer if not re-
versed had it not been for the
Truckers capitalizing on many Red
skin fumbleS.
Norwalk could get exactly no.
where against the Redskin de-
fense the first quarter, however
they started to roll the last quarter
and managed to have Hestor carry
the ball over from the two yard
line. Joe McAtee blocked the kick
for the extra point.
Port Clinton took the kick off
with only four minutes left to
play, in an attempt to get touch
down and the extra point. A Red
skin fumbled the ball and a Truck
er recovered in Redskin territory.
After series of plays, the Truck
ers got down to the ten yard line,
but could get no closer due to the
fine defensive work of some of
the Port Clinton boys. With fourth
down and five to go for a first
down and another five for a touch
down, Norwalk's Tress made a sue
cessful attempt of field goal
slightly from the left side of the
poles. That completed the scoring
when time ran out on the Redskin
bid to score.
The Preview showed some of the
weaknesses in the Redskin line,
however the depth of the squad
showed compensation. The indi-
vidual playing of some members
of the team makes things look
hopeful for the coming season.

versary of the Methodist Church
at Concord, Del. The big event
was held on Sunday, Oct. 81, and
about 500 persons attended. They
came to Concord from all parts
of the country, and had a gala
gospel day as they enjoyed the
special services, also the turkey
dinner which was served in the
Community Hall there. 1t was a
free will offering, and a spirit of
keen hospitality was seen every
where. Relative met relative, and
friend met friend, all joining in a
big treat of friendship and folk
lore. 1t was said that no occasion
could be found anywhere. The Ses-
quictntennial services contained
the highlights on the history of
Concord and its fine church SER
vice of the community ever since
the building of the church in 1904.
The day and evening services
were especially interesting and
both largely attended. Among
those taking part were The Rev.
Jervis Cooke of Seaford Metho-
dist Church, besides the Rev. Bu-
argue, the Concord pastor; also
DR.. Oler BARLEY, district superin-
tendent, and the various members
of the church.
During the occasion an interest
ing visitor was the Rev. Jacob
Handy, who resides at Blades
near Seaford. At the evening SER
vice the Rev. Roy Tawes of Will
mington preached. The special
singing and musical entertain
ment was likewise greatly enjoy

1t now looks as though the
Street Committee intended doing
something in regard to having the
bad pavements in town repaired.
At the meeting of the Town Coun-
Gil last Friday night, Councilman
James c. Robinson, chairman of
the street committee made his re-
port and asked the council to in
struct him how to proceed. A
new pavement will be laid in
front of the lot of Mrs. Garman
on South Street, and repairs will
be made to all others who did not
comply with the notices recently
sent out.
Messrs. D. F. and H. R. Loose,
proprietors of formerly the w. F.

were evidently after cunning out
fits only, as nothing outside of
the window where these goods
were under display have been
missed.

painful sprain of the left arm. On

vealed that she had no fracture.

George Phillips thinks Town
send would be more modern and
radiant if the buses would come
into the town instead of stopping
at Ginns Corner, and calling that
the right destination, makes peo-
pie angry and they openly con-
denim the poor service. Old folks
and sick people often suffer from
this inconvenience and openly de-
nounce such an unpopular system.
Even on cold days people must
suffer to get to the bus service
and no doubt they resent the rot
ten service in terms that are well
understood. How long the misery
will last is hard to explain or pre-
dict.
A few of our residents are en-
gagged in raising and selling hunt
ing dogs. William David sold two
dogs for $3.50 and later on John
Leatham sold two fine dogs for
500. New Jersey hunters are the
principal buyers and they never
seem to balk on the price. One
day last year George Adams of
Woodbury., N. j., came here and
bought seven dogs and took them
home with him that same day. It
seems that good dogs are in con-
stant demand in various parts of
New Jersey. And now two young
men are planning to form a part
nership to own a dog ranch and
still dogs by the wholesale.
Some residents are asking what
has become of the old garden in
spector who used to call on resi-
dents and inspect their gardens.
He usually found fault about
and told the owner
just what he thought. Sometimes
in sarcastic mood he would talk
roughly to the owner over some
thing planted wrong. In turn the
irate owner would chase him
away. At other times he would
be kind and gentle and had long
talks with the owners. He told
residents he was from Rising Sun,
Md, and had lived there for years.
His last appearance here was in
July, 1900, and many residents
still wonder what has become of
him.

At first, U. S. Engineers dis

far more than $4,000. It is also
understood that relatively few Jet
ties can be constructed for that a.
mount However, watermen feel
that jetties, placed where threat of
damage is greatest could helm as
temporary measure. If the survey
shows that Roosevelt Inlet is
responsible for the erosion, then
Congress may be asked for an

sum needed to prevent additional
erosion damage to the beachfrOnt.
