CLARE DEFEATS
SHEPHERD 22-0
ON UKIAL GRID
Reed Gity Here Today for
Home Coming
Game
Clare High's Fighting Pioeners displayed their offensive and defensive
power as they defeated Shepherd High
School last Friday 22-0.
After Shepherd kicked off, the ball
was put in play on the 20 yard line.
By combining a good aerial attach
with fine running plays, the pioneers
marched the ball to Shepherd's 20
yard line; but here they lost the ball
when Shepherd intercepted a pass.
Shepherd punted to Clare's 20 yard
line. On the second play John Schaaf
took the ball around his own right
end, and by cutting back, ne evaded
the entire Shepherd secondary and
romped 80 yards to score the first
touchdown. Kleiner carried the bal)
through the line to score the extra
point.
Early in the second quarter Neilan
Cradit recovered a free punt on the
50 yard line, which set the stage for
the second score. Schaaf punted out-
of-bounds on the two yard line, forcing Shepherd to punt from behind
their own. goal line. A safety was
scored, 2 points, when the punt was
blocked.
Neilan Cradit scored another touchdown in the third quarter on a perfect
end around play, after the Pioneers
had marched it down from the 50
yard line.
In the last quarter Bryant carried
the ball around end for the third,
touchdown of the game. The extra
point was made from a fake kick
formation.
The Pioneers displayed real defensive power in the last few minutes ot
the game. Shepherd had carried the
ball to the 3 yard line, after coach
Brown had replaced his regulars with
a new team.
The first string was rushed back in
and not only did they completely stop
the offensive, but had the ball on
Shepherd's 10 yard line when the
game ended.
Today Reed City plays here. This is
the only team that has beaten Clar^j
this year, and it promises to be a goot}
game.

KIWANIANS HEAR
AVIATION TALKS
WEDNESDAY EVE.
Sheldon Steers and Herman
" Golbeck Speak of Aerial
•■ Progress
* * Interesting talks on aviation featur
ed the Wednesday evening meeting of
Clare Kiwanis,, held at the Hotel Doherty, under the chairmanship of Lew
Schmidt."
Herman Colbeck, Beaverton pilot,
spoke- to "the men concerning his ex7
pefiehces as; a pilot and urged that op
portuhity be given to inore young men
to learn to fly. * ' '
Sheldon B. (Buck) Steers, of thq
State Aeronautical Commission, Lansing,- traced the advancement which
has been made in aviation since the
time of the Wright Brothers. Mr.
Steers, hiniself an ex-service man explained' the - impetus which aviation-
received due to the war.
In speaking of the present stage of
air travel he stated that there are now,
137 licensed airports operating, in
Michigan twelve months of the year,
There are 64 arrivals and take-offs at-
the Detroit city airport during a 24
hour period. '
Mr. Steers discussed the fact that
aeronautical engineers have contributed much in the field of stream linec*<
travel not Only in their own field but
indirectly in the fields of marine nayi-
■gatfoh and railroad transportation. Ha
contrasted the expense involved ln
transportation on ocean liners and
long distance aircraft. In this connection he* stated that 2 1-2% of the gross
weight of an Ocean liner is disposable
pay load, while in aircraft 41% of the
gro^S} is pay load.
In conclusion, Mr. Steers urged that
the establishment of more airports be,
encouraged and that 'youth be given
the opportunity to learn to fly, not to,
provide more cannon fodder, but that
this great American industry might
continue to develop for our commercial;
interests as well as for the protection
.of our country in event of war.
Mr. Herman L. Fruechtenicht.
Riwanian of Mt. Pleasant was a guest
at the meeting.
At the meeting of the board of directors, Kiwauians Ted "Wallington,
Tim Cotter, Ace Parker, Paul.Lowrey;;
Art Damoth and A. F. Bates were
appointed to assist "in. any way
possible with the annual Halloween
weiner roast given by the business
"Men of. Clare for Clare Youngsters.
This week, it behooves the writer of
"Twin Elm" news to consider a member of the fair sex, and after much
del'.bei ation the "Fates" pointed tq
Jane Keschman—and I will tell you
why.
Probably, without exception, she is
one of the most consistent players of
the "Twin Elms Lady's Association,"
especially when pitted against strong
opposition, and., Invariably her card
shows a score hovering around the 90
mark—a height envied by many men
—including her brother and husband.-
Formerly this golfer was Jane Davy
youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J_.
'_.. Davy—who started a 'clothing- and
dry goods store in Clare in the early
9'0's and still continues on the busy
corner as The Davy Co.—-.but a couple
of years ago she was married to Mr(
John -Keschman, manager of the Consumer Power Company's merchandise
department in the Ford Sales building. .
Jane was winner of the consolation
prize, in the 1938 championship flight
and bids fair for a 1939 contender for
that cherished club cup. _ Here's luck

SPECTACULAR H. S.
CARNIVAL HERE
Greatest Midway in History
Ready for Tonight's
Performance
A 2 mile northwest-southeast productive width for the Van Horn pool,
Clare county, appeared all but established at mid-week, to give, the drilling
play in Freeman and Redding townships its biggest boost since establishing of prolific flow production 2 miles
north of the discovery well in Pure'a
Switzer No. 1, section 27, Redding.
The two wells which' the industry
view as almost positive keys to expanding the proven area on two flanks
were McClanahan Oil company's State
No. 1, se nw sw, section 33-19n-6w,
Redding, and Mammoth Producing and
Refining Corporation's Van Horn No,
1, n.w ne se, section 3-18n-6w, Freeman.
Mammoth's Van Horn No. 1, a hall
mile east and south of drilled in
production filled up and flowed 200
barrels with a pinched in production
following acid treatment on Tuesday
night. Monroe top was placed at 3,902
feet (elevation 1,087 feet) and the hole
bottomed at 3,909% feet. This development is expected to bring from 6 to 11
new rigs on, the southeast flank of the
pool, and probably will lead more
than one operator to flirt with the idea,
of drilling a marine test in Big Norway lake. The lake covers the.
equivalent of an eighth of a section
and is just off to the* east of Mammoth's extension well.
McClanahan's State came in Wednesday with a 400 barrel natural flow,
and following acid treatment yesterday, the flow was increased to from
1800 to 2000 barrels per day.
McClahanahan's well should give
the pooi a tremendous boost, adding
in one bold strike 16 to 25 locations.
It is a full three-quarters of a mile
west and north of Socony's Fell producer.
Socony-Vacuum Oil company continued to build up its reserves and open
flow volume in {he pool during the
week completing the Van Horn No. 3.
Van Horn No. 4 initialed 82 -barrels
first hour, 65 second and thh*d(l hours,
and then was beamed down. Top was
3,898 and bottom af 3,902 feet: Van
Horn No. 3, ne nw nw, sections. 3-l_n-'
6w, south offset to Daily Crude Oft com/
pany's Van Horn No. 1, developed 20
barrel an hour natural production and
gauged 324. barrels the first 12* hours
on test. . ....".- ,
First pay was drilled' at 3,904-06 feet
with a second pay at 3,908-10 feet, and
the hole bottomed at 3,910 feet.
Geoioygists- again were having .a
field day as a/result of the Drake failure. Farther south in section 15, McClanahan's Perkins according to most
geoligists-missed "jife Monroe "altogether and drilled ;a'solid" section of Dundee
lime. Many were of the.opinion last'

After Shepherd kicked off, the ball was put in play on the 20 yard line. By combining a good aerial attach with fine running plays, the pioneers marched the ball to Shepherd's 20 yard line; but here they lost the ball when Shepherd intercepted a pass. Shepherd punted to Clare's 20 yard line. On the second play John Schaaf took the ball around his own right end, and by cutting back, ne evaded the entire Shepherd secondary and romped 80 yards to score the first touchdown. Kleiner carried the bal) through the line to score the extra point. Early in the second quarter Neilan Cradit recovered a free punt on the 50 yard line, which set the stage for the second score. Schaaf punted out- of-bounds on the two yard line, forcing Shepherd to punt from behind their own. goal line. A safety was scored, 2 points, when the punt was blocked. Neilan Cradit scored another touchdown in the third quarter on a perfect end around play, after the Pioneers had marched it down from the 50 yard line. In the last quarter Bryant carried the ball around end for the third, touchdown of the game. The extra point was made from a fake kick formation. The Pioneers displayed real defensive power in the last few minutes ot the game. Shepherd had carried the ball to the 3 yard line, after coach Brown had replaced his regulars with a new team. The first string was rushed back in and not only did they completely stop the offensive, but had the ball on Shepherd's 10 yard line when the game ended. Today Reed City plays here. This is the only team that has beaten Clar^j this year, and it promises to be a goot} game.

Sheldon Steers and Herman " Golbeck Speak of Aerial •■ Progress * * Interesting talks on aviation featur ed the Wednesday evening meeting of Clare Kiwanis,, held at the Hotel Doherty, under the chairmanship of Lew Schmidt." Herman Colbeck, Beaverton pilot, spoke- to "the men concerning his ex7 pefiehces as; a pilot and urged that op portuhity be given to inore young men to learn to fly. * ' ' Sheldon B. (Buck) Steers, of thq State Aeronautical Commission, Lansing,- traced the advancement which has been made in aviation since the time of the Wright Brothers. Mr. Steers, hiniself an ex-service man explained' the - impetus which aviation- received due to the war. In speaking of the present stage of air travel he stated that there are now, 137 licensed airports operating, in Michigan twelve months of the year, There are 64 arrivals and take-offs at- the Detroit city airport during a 24 hour period. ' Mr. Steers discussed the fact that aeronautical engineers have contributed much in the field of stream linec*< travel not Only in their own field but indirectly in the fields of marine nayi- ■gatfoh and railroad transportation. Ha contrasted the expense involved ln transportation on ocean liners and long distance aircraft. In this connection he* stated that 2 1-2% of the gross weight of an Ocean liner is disposable pay load, while in aircraft 41% of the gro^S} is pay load. In conclusion, Mr. Steers urged that the establishment of more airports be, encouraged and that 'youth be given the opportunity to learn to fly, not to, provide more cannon fodder, but that this great American industry might continue to develop for our commercial; interests as well as for the protection .of our country in event of war.

Bates were appointed to assist "in. any way possible with the annual Halloween weiner roast given by the business "Men of. Clare for Clare Youngsters. This week, it behooves the writer of "Twin Elm" news to consider a member of the fair sex, and after much del'.bei ation the "Fates" pointed tq Jane Keschman—and I will tell you why. Probably, without exception, she is one of the most consistent players of the "Twin Elms Lady's Association" especially when pitted against strong opposition, and., Invariably her card shows a score hovering around the 90 mark—a height envied by many men —including her brother and husband.- Formerly this golfer was Jane Davy youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J_. '_.. Davy—who started a 'clothing- and dry goods store in Clare in the early 9'0's and still continues on the busy corner as The Davy Co.—-.but a couple of years ago she was married to Mr( John -Keschman, manager of the Consumer Power Company's merchandise department in the Ford Sales building. . Jane was winner of the consolation prize, in the 1938 championship flight and bids fair for a 1939 contender for that cherished club cup. _ Here's luck to Jane.. .•••.-.-*.. :.'*■ . '.. VAN HORN POOL PRODUCTIVE AREA ABOUTJJOUNDEB Two Mile North west'Southeast Width All But Established LADIES. GENTS.. SPECTACULAR H. S. CARNIVAL HERE Greatest Midway in History Ready for Tonight's Performance A 2 mile northwest-southeast productive width for the Van Horn pool, Clare county, appeared all but established at mid-week, to give, the drilling play in Freeman and Redding townships its biggest boost since establishing of prolific flow production 2 miles north of the discovery well in Pure'a Switzer No. 1, section 27, Redding. The two wells which' the industry view as almost positive keys to expanding the proven area on two flanks were McClanahan Oil company's State No. 1, se nw sw, section 33-19n-6w, Redding, and Mammoth Producing and Refining Corporation's Van Horn No, 1, n.w ne se, section 3-18n-6w, Freeman. Mammoth's Van Horn No. 1, a hall mile east and south of drilled in production filled up and flowed 200 barrels with a pinched in production following acid treatment on Tuesday night. Monroe top was placed at 3,902 feet (elevation 1,087 feet) and the hole bottomed at 3,909% feet. This development is expected to bring from 6 to 11 new rigs on, the southeast flank of the pool, and probably will lead more than one operator to flirt with the idea, of drilling a marine test in Big Norway lake. The lake covers the. equivalent of an eighth of a section and is just off to the* east of Mammoth's extension well. McClanahan's State came in Wednesday with a 400 barrel natural flow, and following acid treatment yesterday, the flow was increased to from 1800 to 2000 barrels per day. McClahanahan's well should give the pooi a tremendous boost, adding in one bold strike 16 to 25 locations. It is a full three-quarters of a mile west and north of Socony's Fell producer. Socony-Vacuum Oil company continued to build up its reserves and open flow volume in {he pool during the week completing the Van Horn No. 3. Van Horn No. 4 initialed 82 -barrels first hour, 65 second and thh*d(l hours, and then was beamed down. Top was 3,898 and bottom af 3,902 feet: Van Horn No. 3, ne nw nw, sections. 3-l_n-' 6w, south offset to Daily Crude Oft com/ pany's Van Horn No. 1, developed 20 barrel an hour natural production and gauged 324. barrels the first 12* hours on test. . ....".- , First pay was drilled' at 3,904-06 feet with a second pay at 3,908-10 feet, and the hole bottomed at 3,910 feet. Geoioygists- again were having .a field day as a/result of the Drake failure. Farther south in section 15, McClanahan's Perkins according to most geoligists-missed "jife Monroe "altogether and drilled ;a'solid" section of Dundee lime.
