OF C. SPECIAL MEET
Ticket Chairman Urges All
to Procure Reservations
Early as Only Limited
Number Remain
At a meeting of officials of the
Clare Chamber of Commerce hold in
President .Holbrook's office Wednesday evening last minute plans were
formulated for the special Chamber
of Commerce meeting which will be
held at tha Hotel Doherty next Tues-
- day evening with Rabbi Louis Wolsey of Philadelphia as guest speaker,
James S. Bicknell, Chairman of tho
Ticket Committee, reported that the
tickets are being sold rapidly and
that all those desiring to attend
should secure their tickets well in advance, as all indications point toward
all being sold long before the meeting. Mr. Bicknell announced his as-
-C sistants as N. L. Tibbils, O. D. Bayes
*T and Jesse Hampton; he stated that
tickets could be purchased from any
of these men or from himself.
As Rabbi Wolsey is a former Clare
boy and as he is one of the most interesting and widely known speakers
in the United Statas much interest
has been manifested in this meeting.
The older residents in particular,
those who know Rabbi Wolsey as a
boy, have been especially desirous of
being in attendance. However many
of the newcomers to our city, those
who know Rabbi Wolsey only by
reputation and not personally, have
also indicated their desire to be present.
The reception committee for the
evening will consist of Mr. and Mrs.
Edward Johnston, Mr. and Mrs.
George White, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer
Anderson and Mr .and Mrs. Clyde
Harris. Jack Livingston and WUHarr
Caple will act as ushers. Norris Elden, Joseph A. Kitchin, Austin Bates
and E. D. Kennedy will furnish vocal
music.
Much credit is due to the 1934
President and Board of Directors oi'
the organization for securing bc
talented a speaker for a meeting in
this city. This is an opportunity that
comes once in a life timo and by the
way the tickets ar.3 being sold it i?
evident that thi3 fact is well realised
by tho people of this community.
The dinner will start promptly at
six-thirty o'clock on Tuesday evening, January 29th. Tickets for the
banquet are only oevouty-iive cents
and when tho number on hand is
sold, thero will be no 'others obtainable.

Senate Ohehs
Half-Year Tags
in First «35 Bill
A bill to sell auto Iicenso plates on
the half-year payment plan was
adopted by the State Senate Monday
night and sent to the House for
adoption. The measure, Introduced
by Senator John Reid, Highland Park
Republican, was the first legislation
to pass either house, this session.
The bill, if it passes the Hou3G and
is signed by the governor, will extend relief to approximately 300,000
drivers, it is estimated. The plan
was used ia 1933 and il934 as an
emergency' measure, and the Reid
bill would make the same system
mandatory every year in the future.
Orville E. AtwoOd, -secretary of
state, had announced earlier in the
day an extension^ of time for the pay-,
ing of weight taxes from February 1
,to March 1 pending passage of the
Reid proposal.

NEW RECOIaTIONS
All Relief Clients Must Reregister as Call is Given
in Their Community
The F, E. R. A. for Clare county,
with offices in the new City Hall and
Community building, has just undergone a complete new set-up complying with orders from the state department from Lansing in charge oS
Mr. J. Regan.
The personnel in the local office
has been changed by Dr. A. H. Robertson, county .administrator, into
three departments, viz; .
Investigations—Miss "^/inifrec M.
Fanning, case supervisor?; Mrs. M. E.
Pratt, intake clerk; afra. Dorothy
Schaaf,  assistant. f ■'    -■
Work division—M. W. McAlonan,
director; Miss Mildred - Weaver, assistant.
Accounting—Ralph Artibee,. head;
Miss E.uth Paxton, assistant.
The County Commission consisting
of M. B. Gallagher, B. F. Fanning,
and Mrs. G. E. Lamb are expected to
tender their resignations very soon
as the ruling does not allow persons
to act upon said commission who
are "vendors or receive service, either directly or indirectly" and continue as a commissioner.
The Federal government has al30
issued orders that calls for a re-registration of all . persons who have
been receiving Relief. A questlonaire
is sent to all recipients of Emergency Relief and each client must
bring and give- the information requested. This questionaire states
very emphatically that any parson
•furnishing untruthful statements or
otherwise securing relief through
fraudulent means shall be prosecuted.
In order to facilitate thi3 re-registration special meetings have been
arranged in the different sections oJ
the county and those not "re-applying
for relief will receive no further assistance.
The questionaire reads as follows:
If you desire to rc-apply for relief,
bring the following with you:
All insurance policies (active and
lapsed), stocks, bonds or any othei'
securities you or any member of your
family may hold.
Deed or contract on all property
you have and the last receipts.

The speaker dwelt at length upon
the many phases of legislation sponsored by -the Legion which he classified ag follows: Adjusted Compensation, Americanism, Civil Service, Disabled A^eterans, Widows and Orphans,

HE CITY WINS
VER CLARE BY
SCORE OF 35-25
Powerful Team From North
Prove   Superior   Over
Locals, Travelers
Wiii
1 ■ ;    .
Lake City proved too powerful for
the local quintet last Friday, defeating them 35 to 25. It was the first
quarter of the game that really settled the final outcome. The score after eight minutes of play was 14-4, a
ten point advantage that the final
score showed. The Lake City boys
started out in fine fashion and proved their superiority throughout although on several occasions were
only six points in front. The Clare-
boys kept continually at the Lake
City defense but could not pierce it
often enough to come close to tieing
the score. The boys from the north
3howed the reason why they are the
leaders of the "C" Conference, playing a fine brand of basketball. The
Clare lads, too, displayedjreal basketball ability but were hurried in their
shots by the close guarding of their
opponents, It was a well played
game, very interesting with plenty oi
fine well-worked plays.
Tupper was back at center position and played fine game -although
he showed lack of practice due to hia
recent illness which kept him off the
squad until Tuesdays workout. Eddie
Bowler was "there" when it came tc
shooting foul shots, looping in six out
of seven tries. Eddie also played a
fine floor game as did Parish who
played the opposite forward position
Maxwell and "Doc" Sanfprd performed well at guards, Maxwell particularly at defensive guard and
"Doc" offensively. But "Doc'
could .not hit the basket regularly enough—ha'd he been making a
fair percentage of his tries the score
wouid have been ' diiKerent. Watson
regular forward, was out of the lineup because-of illness.
The second team met defeat also,
although they, played a better brand
of basketball than for the last several
games. Both games were fast and
well-played.
