Two Basketball
Thrillers During
.    the Coming Week
Local basketball fans and townspeople in general will be given the opportunity of seeing the Clare High
School Pioneers meet two of their
most formidable adversaries in the
local school gymnasium during the
coming week.
The Green and White squad will
meet rivals of long standing when
they match wits with Evart High here
this Friday evening and Midland will
bring a strong team here Tuesday
evening of next week to attempt to
repeat their wins of last season.
The Pioneers are going strong this
year with splendid possibilities of the
district championship and will be out
there to win both of these games. The
"Little Pioneers" have lost only one
game this season and have been playing keen basketball, so you will want
to be there at 7:15 each evening to
see the youngsters go into action.•

YOUNG CRIMINAL
TAKEN TO JACKSON
PRIS0NJ0NDAY
Fifteen  Year Old   Eugene
Jacobs Sentenced by
Judge Hart
Eugene Jacobs was taken to Jackson prison Monday, by Sheriff Seaver
Amble, where he will serve a sentence
of six and one-half to fifteen years,
on a charge of breaking and entering
with intent to commit larceny, as he
was sentenced by Judge Ray Hart, of
Midland, in a special session of Circuit court held in Harrison, Friday.
Jacobs, fifteen year old youth of
near Lake Station', blazed a sensational trail of crime which continued over
a period of two mopths time. The
orphan lad was pickejj aid early in October charged with breaking and entering into the Howard's gasoline station and beer garden at Lake, and sent
to the Starr Commonwealth home for
boys, by the Probate Court judge. He
escaped from the home a few days
later and returned to Lake Station
where he broke into the same business
place a second time.
State Police having been notified of
his escape from the home, started
their search for him, and picked him
up near the home of his sister, at
Mesick, after which he was sent to.
the Detention- home/at-Mt."Pleasant
A few days later/ in company with a
younger lad, Jacobs escaped- from the
Detention home, and left a startling
record of crime behind on his journey
across the state to Grand Rapids.
The story, as told by officials, reports that the boys first stole a car in
Mt. Pleasant, which took them to the
outskirts, before the motor stopped.
They abandoned the car aud went
back into Mt. Pleasant and stole
another, which they drove almost to
Clare, abandoning it at the roadside
after locking.the doors; and went into
Clare and helped.i''themselves to
another.
They continued the game of driving
a car until the gas supply had run out,
and then stealing another, on through
the state until they had a total of
seven stolen cars in their record. In
Grand Rapids, they held up a gasoline
filling station with a gun which they
had acquired during their night's journey, and were captured a short time
later by police upon information and
auto license number furnished by the
station attendant.
Jacobs was brought back to Harrison, where the Probate court waived
all jurisdiction, and bound the case
over to Circuit court; and since December 9, Jacobs has been held at
the County Jail. According to the
stories told by Jacobs during his stay
at the jail, he had many plans for further "jobs," had his career of crime
been allowed to develop further.
Additional honor and distinction have been won by the Clare Hardware
& Furniture Company, who recently won first prize in the Consumers Power
Company "Finish Forty Campaign" window contest. It was announced here
last week that the window trim winning the first prize in the Alma district
had also won the Grand Prize for the State.
