PIONEERS TAKE
FIRST TWO PAIR
OF CAGE GAMES
Varsity and Reserves Beat
Both Reed City and
St. Louis
Clare High's Pioneers made *a good
beginning In the present basketball
season last Friday by winning both
games from Reed City, 25-22 varsity
and 19-18 reserves.
The Green, and White varsity at
times showed some fine passing and
ball handling in their defeat of Reed
City. Jersey Joslin drew flrst blood
with a nice shot from a medium distance and put the Pioneers into a lead
that was never relinquished.
In spite of many missed shots, Clare
pulled away to an 8-3 lead at the end
of the first quarter. They increased
this to a comfortable 22-14 third quarter margin, but went into a tailspiu
when Cappaert drew his fifth personal
with six minutes of playing time remaining. Reed City put on a drive,
but after several minutes of jitters,
Clare steadied to stall out the game.
Joslin was high-point man with six
field goals, while Cappaert used his
height to advantage in dominating the
backboards. Rodabaugh and Kane, at
guard, repeatedly broke up the Reeds'
offensive thrusts.
The Little Pioneers pulled one out
of the Are with a last second basket
by Joe Johnston. Trailing 16-10 at half
time, the reserves put on a last-half
sprint while holding Reed City to 2
points. >
Bring Casper Home
The Clare High Pioneers made it
two in .a row Tuesday night and
brought Casper back home by virtue
of a 36-21 win over St. Louis. The
Junior Varsity made it a perfect evening for Clare's fans by staging a
rousing finish to win 32-26 in an exciting overtime .game.
Casper should be glad to return to
Clare's green pastures after his stay
in St. Louis. He is evidently suffering
from a bad attack of mange and a decided deficiency of vitamins T I N,
and we hope he will exert all his occult influence to remain in Clare
where* he" will be aiiiiteeiate&i'
The Varsity game was anything but
a runaway the first quarter, with
neither team able to i-core. A 5-4
margin was the best the Pioneers
could manage. From that point on,
however, it was.mostly a question of
the 8is*e of the score as Clare found
the range.
With Bud Rodabaugh and Bud Kane
bombaMing from a distance, and the
rest of the teanvhitting from in close,
St, Louis was up against an offense
that they were unable to stop. The
Pioneers hit a better percentage of
their shots than against Reed City,
but still missed numerous good shot-
as well as free throws. They are improving, though, and the fact that seven players contributed to the scoring
indicates that they are team players
and will give a good account of themselves this season.
The reserves were forced to come
from behind again,- but after Lynn
Hahn threw the game into overtime
with a long shot, Bill Adams put it on
ice. Both the ninth and tenth grade
teams played good ball, with the exception of a bad third quarter.

ST. HENRY'S CHURCH
COLLECTING FOOD FOR
THE WAR STRICKEN
People Not Belonging To The
Catholic Church May
Contribute
Millions of people in Europe and
Asia face utter starvation this winter
unless Americans send help. This
need has prompted the Bishops- of the
Catholic Church in the United States
to call upon, their people to make a
special effort. A campaign is being
conducted for canned foods of all
kinds-fruits, vegetables, berries, meat,
soup, milk, cream etc. Tin canned
food is preferred because it can be
better and more safely packed and
shipped. The drive closes this Sunday, December 16, and it is hoped that
20,000,000 cans will Be collected.
St. Henry's Church, of Rosebush,
and Mission, at Leaton, are participating in this drive very genei*ol*sly.
The front hall of each church is being
used as the receiving center, and the
basement as the s'tock room. )$ext
week the food will be sent to the shipping points and from there on to the
famine areas.
People not belonging to the Catholic Church may contribute if they
like.
Although the quotas for some issues
of bonds in: the Victory Loan have
been met, Clare county was a long
Way short of attaining its Series E
Bond goal. at the end of the Victory
Loan campaign last Saturday evening.
According to latest Federal Reserve
Bank reports only $49,837.50 in Series*
E Bonds ba-ve cleared the Federal Reserve Bank to the credit of Clare county, which is less than half of our Victory Loan E Bond quota of $107,000.
The Consumers Power Company announced this week that it had bought
$15,000 in bonds to the credit of Clare
county during the Victory Loan and
this will add materially to the corporation bonds purchased toward our
Clare county quota.
Even though the solicitation campaign ended officially last Saturday
night, all bonds clearing the Federal
Reserve Bank through December 31
will count toward our Victory Loan
quota and it is hoped that all will
make every effort to purchase as
many Series E. Victory Bonds as possible in the next few days so that our
E. Bond quota in this final War Loan
may be subscribed.
The fact that Clare county has again
come through in its financial support
of those in service will make this first
peacetime Christmas merrier for all
of us and the bonds purchased wftll
strangthen our -back log for a time
when we may be urgently in need of
money. They Have Finished Their
Job—Let's Finish Ours—Now!

A Certificate of Merit signed by Governor Kelly and Capt. Donald S. Leonard, State Director of Civilian Defense,
has been awarded to the Clare County
Defense Council in recognition pf its
efforts during World War II.
The certificate, received today by
Laurence W. Jackson, Chairman of the
Defense Council, states:
"The Michigan Office of Civilian Defense awards this Certificate of Merit
to- the Clare County Defense Council
in. recognition of loyal and unselfish
serYice"'rendered by the Council and
its Civilian Defense Volunteers during World War II. Such service stands
as- a mark of distinction and patriotic
devotion in the Nation's achievement
of Victory."
Although Civilian Defense has been
inactive since the surrender of Japan,
its formal dissolution as a legal entity
will take place this month, the interval
between having been allowed to give
Councils time to liquidate their organizations and dispose of funds on, hand.
This has now been accomplished in all
but a few instances.
In a number of Communities various
Civilian Defense programs have been
taken over by other agencies, particularly in the field of protection such
as fire and police auxiliaries. Programs which had served their purpose, or for which there were no other
local sponsors, were discontinued in
September.
In a letter accompanying the Certificate of Merit, Capt. Leonard said:
"The contribution made by Civilian
Defense Volunteers aud their leaders
to winning the Victory in World War
II. and in maintaining our Country in
a state of defense preparedness, will
forever stand as an impressive tribute
to their patriotism and loyalty.
"Their generous donation of time
aud energy to carry on the many essential home front tasks assigned to
them made them participants in the
greatest example of civilian cooperation and organization of all time.
"It therefore gives me pleasure to
forward to you a Certilcate of Merit
awarded to your Defense Council and
the Volunteers within its jurisdiction.
To that I want toadd my personal expression of pride and gratitude for the
fact that the outstanading and exceptional record of Michigan's Civilian Defense Volunteers was unsurpassed in
the Nation."
Chairman Laurence W. Jackson said
the certificate will be framed and hung
in Clare City Hall.

guests of the Clare Kiwanis Club met

MYERS SCHOOL PROGRAM
The Myers School Christmas program will be given Friday evening,
December 22.
Miss Abbie A. Saunders was born
at Vassar, Michigan, June 25, 186->
and passed, away at Chicago, 111., December 7, 1945, at the age of eighty
years, five months and twelve, days.
On September 25,' 1889, she was
united in marriage to Charles- J.
Stone, at Toledo, Ohio. To this union
were born two sons, Fred A. Stone
and C. Selden, Stone, the latter passing away in April, 1922.
In 1894 they moved to Clare, where
they spent the rest of their lives until
Mr. Stone died in 1937 when she went
to live with her son, Fred, in Chicago.
Their years at Clare were spent in
town and on farms. Mr. Stone, with
Orsen Ellis, established the Clare
Steam Laundry in 1894 and operated
it for a number of years. He also for a
time was engaged in the meat business with George Dawson. The most
of his time was, however, spent on a
farm as he liked that life above all
others.
Mrs. Stone was an able helpmate to
him all of that time and continued in
good health until the last ten years of
her life. She has been gradually failing for the last ten years but a remarkable Constitution has kept her
going up to close to the very end.
She was a cheerful and happy woman, always able to see the amusing
side of life and while she was able she
gave all she could to worthwhile projects.
She is survived by one son, Fred, of
Chicago; six grandchildren and two
great grandchildren. One grandchild
passed away in 1930.
Services were held at Staus Chapel
in Chicago, at 8:00 o'clock, December
9th and interment was made at-Vassar,
Michigan, on December 10, beside her
husband in her own family plot.
She was a fine mother and will be
greatly missed by the family and all
who knew her. She was always affiliated with a -church where she lived.
In Clare she was a member of the Congregational Church and, a willing
worker in all church affairs.

year with proceeds from the Minstrel
Show, which amounted to $277.23. The
P.T.A. contributed $100.00, the Elementary Chorus $50.00, and the proceeds from the paper sale were $35.10,

the new piano was $850.00, and leaves
a' balance of ,$387.67., During the evening the elementary chorus donated
$60.00 and an offering was taken
which will greatly lower the balance
of debt.
For the unveiling of the piano, participants - were Mrs. Clayton Neff, of
the P. T. A., Andy Irwin, of the Elementary Chorus, and Bill Schlafley, of
the Student Council.
The first part of the program consisted* of piano solos, played by Mrs.
Helen Lucille Doherty, Harold Collins
and Mrs, Nelda Jones; and a piano
duo, by Miss Mary Louise Tobey and
Mr. Collins, Miss Doris Gerow sang
two lovely numbers and music lovers

they gave several Christmas songs,
directed by Miss Tobey, with Miss
Gerow at the piano.
Songs by the Minstrel Chorus were*
also enjoyed, which was followed by
a dancing number by Miss Joanne
Richard. The highlight of this part
of the program was the hilarious interlude by Earl Ruby and Harley Holt,
end men in the Minstrel Show last
year. They were most enthusiastic
in talcing up of the free will offering.
Tho*program closed with the High
School song and the last verse of the
Star Spangled Banne2*.

The loss was partially covered by
insurance.

Joslin was high-point man with six field goals, while Cappaert used his height to advantage in dominating the backboards. Rodabaugh and Kane, at guard, repeatedly broke up the Reeds' offensive thrusts. The Little Pioneers pulled one out of the Are with a last second basket by Joe Johnston. Trailing 16-10 at half time, the reserves put on a last-half sprint while holding Reed City to 2 points. > Bring Casper Home The Clare High Pioneers made it two in .a row Tuesday night and brought Casper back home by virtue of a 36-21 win over St. Louis. The Junior Varsity made it a perfect evening for Clare's fans by staging a rousing finish to win 32-26 in an exciting overtime .game. Casper should be glad to return to Clare's green pastures after his stay in St. Louis. He is evidently suffering from a bad attack of mange and a decided deficiency of vitamins T I N, and we hope he will exert all his occult influence to remain in Clare where* he" will be aiiiiteeiate&i' The Varsity game was anything but a runaway the first quarter, with neither team able to i-core. A 5-4 margin was the best the Pioneers could manage. From that point on, however, it was.mostly a question of the 8is*e of the score as Clare found the range. With Bud Rodabaugh and Bud Kane bombaMing from a distance, and the rest of the teanvhitting from in close, St, Louis was up against an offense that they were unable to stop. The Pioneers hit a better percentage of their shots than against Reed City, but still missed numerous good shot- as well as free throws. They are improving, though, and the fact that seven players contributed to the scoring indicates that they are team players and will give a good account of themselves this season. The reserves were forced to come from behind again,- but after Lynn Hahn threw the game into overtime with a long shot, Bill Adams put it on ice. Both the ninth and tenth grade teams played good ball, with the exception of a bad third quarter.

HENRY'S CHURCH COLLECTING FOOD FOR THE WAR STRICKEN People Not Belonging To The Catholic Church May Contribute Millions of people in Europe and Asia face utter starvation this winter unless Americans send help. This need has prompted the Bishops- of the Catholic Church in the United States to call upon, their people to make a special effort. A campaign is being conducted for canned foods of all kinds-fruits, vegetables, berries, meat, soup, milk, cream etc. Tin canned food is preferred because it can be better and more safely packed and shipped. The drive closes this Sunday, December 16, and it is hoped that 20,000,000 cans will Be collected. St. Henry's Church, of Rosebush, and Mission, at Leaton, are participating in this drive very genei*ol*sly. The front hall of each church is being used as the receiving center, and the basement as the s'tock room. )$ext week the food will be sent to the shipping points and from there on to the famine areas. People not belonging to the Catholic Church may contribute if they like. Although the quotas for some issues of bonds in: the Victory Loan have been met, Clare county was a long Way short of attaining its Series E Bond goal. at the end of the Victory Loan campaign last Saturday evening. According to latest Federal Reserve Bank reports only $49,837.50 in Series* E Bonds ba-ve cleared the Federal Reserve Bank to the credit of Clare county, which is less than half of our Victory Loan E Bond quota of $107,000. The Consumers Power Company announced this week that it had bought $15,000 in bonds to the credit of Clare county during the Victory Loan and this will add materially to the corporation bonds purchased toward our Clare county quota. Even though the solicitation campaign ended officially last Saturday night, all bonds clearing the Federal Reserve Bank through December 31 will count toward our Victory Loan quota and it is hoped that all will make every effort to purchase as many Series E. Victory Bonds as possible in the next few days so that our E. Bond quota in this final War Loan may be subscribed. The fact that Clare county has again come through in its financial support of those in service will make this first peacetime Christmas merrier for all of us and the bonds purchased wftll strangthen our -back log for a time when we may be urgently in need of money.

A Certificate of Merit signed by Governor Kelly and Capt. Donald S. Leonard, State Director of Civilian Defense, has been awarded to the Clare County Defense Council in recognition pf its efforts during World War II. The certificate, received today by Laurence W. Jackson, Chairman of the Defense Council, states: "The Michigan Office of Civilian Defense awards this Certificate of Merit to- the Clare County Defense Council in. recognition of loyal and unselfish serYice"'rendered by the Council and its Civilian Defense Volunteers during World War II. Such service stands as- a mark of distinction and patriotic devotion in the Nation's achievement of Victory." Although Civilian Defense has been inactive since the surrender of Japan, its formal dissolution as a legal entity will take place this month, the interval between having been allowed to give Councils time to liquidate their organizations and dispose of funds on, hand. This has now been accomplished in all but a few instances. In a number of Communities various Civilian Defense programs have been taken over by other agencies, particularly in the field of protection such as fire and police auxiliaries. Programs which had served their purpose, or for which there were no other local sponsors, were discontinued in September. In a letter accompanying the Certificate of Merit, Capt. Leonard said: "The contribution made by Civilian Defense Volunteers aud their leaders to winning the Victory in World War II. and in maintaining our Country in a state of defense preparedness, will forever stand as an impressive tribute to their patriotism and loyalty. "Their generous donation of time aud energy to carry on the many essential home front tasks assigned to them made them participants in the greatest example of civilian cooperation and organization of all time. "It therefore gives me pleasure to forward to you a Certilcate of Merit awarded to your Defense Council and the Volunteers within its jurisdiction. To that I want toadd my personal expression of pride and gratitude for the fact that the outstanading and exceptional record of Michigan's Civilian Defense Volunteers was unsurpassed in the Nation." Chairman Laurence W. Jackson said the certificate will be framed and hung in Clare City Hall.

MRS. ABB1E1ST0NE PASSES AWAY IN CHICAGO DEC. 7 Wife of Pioneer Bussiness Man Laid at Rest \ in Vassar MYERS SCHOOL PROGRAM The Myers School Christmas program will be given Friday evening, December 22. Miss Abbie A. Saunders was born at Vassar, Michigan, June 25, 186-> and passed, away at Chicago, 111., December 7, 1945, at the age of eighty years, five months and twelve, days. On September 25,' 1889, she was united in marriage to Charles- J. Stone, at Toledo, Ohio. To this union were born two sons, Fred A. Stone and C. Selden, Stone, the latter passing away in April, 1922. In 1894 they moved to Clare, where they spent the rest of their lives until Mr. Stone died in 1937 when she went to live with her son, Fred, in Chicago. Their years at Clare were spent in town and on farms. Mr. Stone, with Orsen Ellis, established the Clare Steam Laundry in 1894 and operated it for a number of years. He also for a time was engaged in the meat business with George Dawson. The most of his time was, however, spent on a farm as he liked that life above all others. Mrs. Stone was an able helpmate to him all of that time and continued in good health until the last ten years of her life. She has been gradually failing for the last ten years but a remarkable Constitution has kept her going up to close to the very end. She was a cheerful and happy woman, always able to see the amusing side of life and while she was able she gave all she could to worthwhile projects. She is survived by one son, Fred, of Chicago; six grandchildren and two great grandchildren. One grandchild passed away in 1930. Services were held at Staus Chapel in Chicago, at 8:00 o'clock, December 9th and interment was made at-Vassar, Michigan, on December 10, beside her husband in her own family plot. She was a fine mother and will be greatly missed by the family and all who knew her. She was always affiliated with a -church where she lived. In Clare she was a member of the Congregational Church and, a willing worker in all church affairs.
