Thursday Is Last
Day For Filing Of
Election Expense

December 5, 400 p. m. can be a
most important date if you happen
to be one of the candidates who
got the nod from the voters in the
recent election. 1t can mean the
difference in getting a certificate,
or not getting one.
Actually, the date is the dead
line for all candidates whose names
were printed on the ballots, Wheth-
er they were elected or not. By the
date all candidates must file an ex-
pense declaration with the election
board, stipulating the expenses, or
the lack Of expenses. While the fill
ing date is especially important to
those elected, 1T is equally import
ant to those who were not elected.
Should an unsuccessful man fail to
file his expense account by the
proper date, he will not be able to
seek office again for five years, ac-
cording to state law.
Write-in candidates who hope to
be awarded certificates of election
must file their statement of ex-
penseS, and they must also pay the
filing fee which other candidates
paid when they announced their in
tention to seek office.

Ohio Bell ToAsk
For Increase In
Telephone Rates

l.. T. Pendleton, vice president of
the Ohio Bell Telephone Company.
has announced that Ohio Bell will
ask the Ohio Public Utilities Com
mission for rate increase early in
1858. The amount of the proposed
increase was not given.
In a letter to the Public Utilities
Commission, Pendleton cited that
Ohio Bells earnings have been
steadily declining and are expected
to decline further He also pointed
out that the company had given
successive annual wage increases
in 1854, 1855 and 1856. The last
rate application to the PUG was
made in 1853. S13,O00,000 in wages
and benefits have been added to
the cost of doing business since
1858, he said.
1t was also pointed out that 1857
wage adjustments coupled with
current wage increases would add
another S5,000,000 to company
costs. Ohio Bell intends to spend
$250,000,000 in new equipment,
lines and buildings within the next
three years.
I'VE have tried to hold the line
on rates by Tightening our expense
belt and taking advantage of new
developments in equipment" Pen
dleton said, but this has not been
enough to offset the continuing in
creases in costs
Ohio Bell rates have been in
creased 27 per cent, compared with
102 per cent rise in the cost of
living since 1910 and a 35 per cent
average boost in telephone rates
for the country as whole.

Monday may still obtain all the
necessary information about their
child joining the beginning instru-
mental groups if he will contact
him at the school or at his resi-
dence. Students in the Fifth thr-
ough the Ninth Grades are eligible
to study in the school band instru-
ment classes being organized at

ing for IA hits in q tries for a per-
centage of nearly 81.
Additional sports news of Mad
ison County and area teams will
be found inside under the Sports
heading.
There was nothing spectacular
about the size of the Northeastern
team to frighten London, but their
speed made up for all they might
have lacked in height They are
one of the fastest moving teams in
the area, and will probably cause
several other coaches to scratch
their heads in deep concern.
Northeastern got off to an early
lead, claiming the honors 1919 at
the end of the first period. By half
time they had 1918 lead over the
Red Raiders and showed no inten-
ton of letting up. In the third
period the Raiders started to howl,
and managed to outscore the
Northeasterners by a 1919 margin.
In the final quarter each team
managed to score twelve points
and London trailed 57-40 as the
gun went off ending the tilt.
Northeastern hit II of % free
throws for "a percent, and marked
up 20 field goals to tally their
total points.
