New Farm Corn Acreage
Allotment

Any producer who intends to
plant corn in 1858 on farm
where there was not corn acreage
during the years 1855, 1856, or
1857 must apply for a corn allot-
ment if he desires price support
or if he wants to participate in
any other phase of the Soil Bank
Program other than the Acreage
Reserve Program for corn in 1858,
Joseph w. Ennis, Chairman of the
County Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation Committee, said
yesterday. Marketing quotas do
not apply to corn, the Chairman
explained. However, under the
present program, the production
of corn in 1858 on a farm which
has no corn acreage allotment
would make the corn produced on
such farm ineligible for price sup
port in 1858 as we'll as affect his
participation in the Soil Bank
Program. Application forms for
a corn allotment are available at
the Kent ASC County Office, in
Dover. January 81, 1858, is the
last day such applications may be
filed

BOBBY traps that pile up fast

SIS. ANNOUNCES
DOVER BRANCH
New Office Will Serve Resi-
dents of Kent and Sussex
Counties in Future
ONE OF 25 NEW OFFICES

A new Social Security Admin
istration district office will be
opened in Dover in the near fu-
ture, Charles /. Schottland, Com
missioner of Social Security an
nounced recently.
The new office will serve resi-
dents of Kent and Sussex Coun-
ties.
These counties have previously
been served by the Wilmington
district Office.
Mr.. Schottland said the Dover
office is one of 25 new social Sc
curity Offices soon to be opened
in various parts of the country
in order to provide better service
to persons covered by social Sc
curity, many of whom now have
to travel considerable distances
to reach an office.
The number of persons covered
by social security has increased
as a result of recent changes in
the lay which for the first time
made farmers, certain profession
al people and others eligible for
social security Population growth,
with consequent growth of the
labor force, also is steadily add
ing to the social security rolls,
Mr. Schottland pointed out.
AS with the other "a locations,
the decision to open an Office in
Dover was based on a study of
the population to be served, types
of employment, numbers of those
now drawing benefits, and other
factors. Persons to be served by
the new Dover Office include 34,-
900 people whose work is covered
by social security.
At the beginning of 1857, over
$3.50 residents of the two coun-
ties to be served by the Dover
Office were receiving social secur-

the first play, after a penalty had

Unavoidable
BIuffton scored their fourth
touchdown in spite of themselves,
matching a brilliant run by Lewis
with an eight yard loss and a IS
yard penalty for clipping.
After bobbing up and down the
field like a cork they finally con-
nected on the last play of the
half, with Lewis hitting Mathew
son with pass which was caught
near the right sideline and car
ried nearly to the opposite corner
of the field for the score. Bluffton
led 26-0 at halftime.
Not ALI Like This
The fifth touchdown was scored
in most un-characteristic fashion
as the Pirates lashed out 70 yards
in II plays, with only one run go
ing outside the tackles. The long
est runs, Is and II yards, were
thrown in by Mathewson, who
eventually pushed three yards for
the tally.

spell on the second play after the
kickoff as Ron Lytle hauled in 9

Beavers Migrate to Ashland
In Search Of 18th Straight

The Bluffton Beavers shoot for
their fifteenth straight Mid-Ohio
league victory and their third
consecutive unbeaten league sea-
son Saturday afternoon at Ash
land.
This years edition of the
Eagles is a puzzler and may be
a murderous puzzler besides.
Ashland has given Bluffton its
stiffest league battle each of the
last two seasons. In 1856 Bluff
ton won 20-19 but they were so
badly banged up they lost their
last game of the season to Cen
tire college.
Last year it was 60 with
Willie Taylor saving the day with
a pass interception inside the
Bluffton 10 in the last minute of
IIlc BdIilS'
This year Ashland lost their
first three league games before
coming from behind to clip Ohio
Northern last week 21-18.
They are operating under a
new coach, Bruce Schmidt, who
has substituted the T-formation
for the varied attack, based on
the single wing. which former
coach Bob Brownson used.
Bluffton fans will be curious to
see whether the Eagles have
made one other change. For the
past several years Ashland has
carried the reputation of the
toughest team in the league.

Their over-aggressive tactics in
1856 cost Bluffton a possible un-
beaten season as the thoroughly
crippled Beavers wobbled at
half-speed against the Prayin'
Colonels of Centre college the
following week and ate up a 26-12
defeat.
Preseason ratings named Ash
land as one of the two major
challengers for Bluffton's title but
they have failed to live up to any
of these expectations,
The Eagles have been beaten
