.    Football Games
We haye haa national safe driving
campaigns, safe driving is being,
taught in our schools, and we have,
even had fatal accidents, but all this
has had no  effect on some persons
-who have persisted in racing up and,
down residence streets of the city.
With apparently no regard for their,
own safety or that of anyone else,    j
Some offenders have been apprehended and fined, others have evaded
the police, but the situation continued
to irk City Police and other officials
until 11:30 o'clock last Saturday .eve- (
ning, when two young men seemingly converted the area in the vicinity
ot "West State and North Beech
"streets into a racing course. j
Law enforcement officials have:
been patient and lenient with their j
fines, but -when the local police de-;
partment received five complaints in;
three minutes from the State and*
Beech Streets area Saturday evening,!
that was just too much. I
They drove to the vicinity and!
found the would be "speed demons,"
Sam* C. Sheredy, 19, of Clare, R-3,
and Harry Karyexl, 21, of Mt. Pleas- >
ant, R-2, racing with their cars. The!
young men were arrested and taken]
to police headquarters, where some;
sixty angered residents of the vicin-|
ity gathered "to see what was going'
to be done about it." j
The  offenders   were  taken   before,
Municipal   Justice   "Wm.   B.   DunlopJ
who set the date of arraignment fort
Tuesday,   when   they   appeared   and<
plead guilty to the charge of reckless j
driving.     Sheredy.f with   a   previous]
traffic   violation   against   his   record,
was fined $50.00 and warned that if he
was   brought   into   Justice  -Dunlop's
court again he would be sent to jail.
Karyexl was fined $35.00.
The fine cooperation of the people
is appreciated by the city police, who
cannot be everywhere at once.
Donald Walter, of Goodrich, has
been fined in Justice Dunlop's court
for speeding August 17.
At 11:00 o'clock Monday evening
an Oldsmobile sedan owned by Geo.
H. Berghorn, of Prairie View, Illinois
and driven by his bride of a day, was
spotted bS City Police without license
plates ana the Berghorns were taken
to.police headquarters.
They told officers that he lost his
Mlifold and one license plate a short
time ago and had sent the remaining
plate in to have a duplicate made,
but bad not received it when they
were married September 5 and were
to go on their honeymoon to Indian
River, where they had made reservations, and they only had a week's va
cation,  so they started out anyway.
Local police checked with State
Police, who had not received notice
of a stolen car of this description,
and sent the Berghorns "on their way
with their blessings, but cannot figure
out how they >got this far without being stopped.
City. Police received a report at
3:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon, September 2, that a tiny baby, two small
children and a dog had been in a
parked car in the alley at the rear
of Bill's Tavern for an hour, and that
the children were crying because of
the heat of 98 degrees.
The parents could not be located
• at once -vjfhen all taverns and gas
stations were checked, but the officers
returned to the car later-and found
the parents, Carl Heny and wife, who
had been in one of the taverns that
were checked. They were reprimanded by the officers and told to take the
children home.
The police have had similar complaints in the past and if this negligence of children is continued, offenders will be prosecuted,
Attention is called to the announcement in last week's Sentinel to the
effect that business firms may have
advertising time during . the home
football games this year.
A chart has been placed in the
Citizens State Bank so that merchants can call the-^e and select their
time. A minimum of $10.00 for three
thirty second periods during each
game will be charged, the proceeds
going into "the stadium** fund,
Only one group of periods will be
sold to a merchant on Saturday ahd
Monday,   so   that   all   may  have   an1
opportunity   to   participate,   but   any!
unsold time will be unlimited beginning   Tuesday   morning.

VFW WINS FROM
FARWELL TO TOP
SOFTBALL LEAGITC
Bauers Take Close Came From
Van Zaftdi's for District
Championship
The VFW took Temple 2-0 in their
final game of the season to finish in a'
tie  with   Farwell,   each  having  two'
losses   for   the   season.     The   Vets
sewed up the game in the fifth by
scoring twp big runs.   However, Temple wasn't through for the night. With
one out in the las$, of the. seventh,1
Temple put men on second and third
but Bud Hendershot ended that threat.
by striking out the next two batters.
The nightcap was played between
Bauers and VanZandt's for the Isabella-Clare District championship. Little
Joe Willey was the ball game for(
Bauers. Joe got the first hit off Cooki
and followed by scoring Bauers' first
run, which tied up the game at 1-1. i
In the fifth, Joe again came through
to start a five run rally and followed
Armentrout's fine catch in the sev-,
enth with an equally sterling one for
the final out, giving Bauers an 8-7
win and the championship.
* The VFW playing Farwell for the
League Championship made a shambles out of the game as Farwell went
to pieces, winning 12-2 and avenging
an early season defeat. Farwell has
been either very good or very bad all
season and found that the Vets were
no team to have an off night against.
The game was never in doubt, witli
the Vets nicking Colosky's delivery
for 13 hits, while his ma*tes were
making nine errors to turn the game
into a rout. Bud HenderphQt was in
fine form and the VFW hitters were
tagging the ball for a change. All in
all a great night for the Vets g.nd a
sad one for Farwell.

o'clock Mo.nday morning.   IVlr. Meth-1
ner was Working on a machine four
rods west of the barn and had finished the job and went to the. tool
shed to get grease when his boy^ told
him the barn was afire.    He turned
toward the building to see it ablaze I
all over.   Neighbors said the roof of'
the building raised up as though there \
had been an explosion and one theory
of the cause was  spontaneous  combustion.    *
The 40x90 main section of the barn,
a 36x56 foot wing and adjoining milk
house were destroyed, There were
nine head of young cattle in the barn
when the fire broke out, but seven
were saved. Also lost in the fire were
100 tons of hay, fifteen acres of straw,
650 bushels of oats, manure spreader,
wagon, small tools, milk cooler and
equipment, and a new 15%x35 foot
steel silo which had been unloaded

The Clare and Coleman fire departments were called and although the
fire in the barn was beyond control,
damage to the nearby tool shed and
granary was confined to the roof of
the tool shed. Fortunately the farm
home was some distance from the
other buildings and the wind blew the
flames and embers in the opposite
direction.
The loss, estimated at $30,000, was
covered by only' $4,000 Insurance.

across three runs in the fifth, one in
the sixth and one in the seventh, to
tie the game at 5-5 at the end of the
regulation seventh inning. Both

The gates will open next Wednes-*
day for the Glare County Fair and all

Indications are that the exhibits of

An inovation for horse racing will
make its first appearance on the?
Clare County Fair Grounds this yeai.
when the Clak Mobil Starting Gate
will be used. This new modern system has been used before ■ in Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky and at
the large pari-mutial tracks but this
summer will be the first time it has
been used in Michigan.
This method of starting is approved
both by the horsemen and spectators
as it tends to- eliminate false starts'*
and excessive scaring of the horses-
back and forth in front of the'agrand-
stand.
The device consists of a set of
wings adjustable to any track, attached to the rear of a specially pow-~-
ered new pick-up truck. The starting
judge stands in the rear of the tru^fk
and operates the mechanism control-
ing the wings-'and the speed of the ve_-
hicles. *      '*
At the beginning of the   heat'   the^-
starter will be stationed at the head i
of the stretch with the wings extend-*'
ed across the track and as the horses-'
approach the starter   in   their   positions, the vehicle will move steadily*
increasing its speed until the wire or
judges stand is reached.   Then if ev-*-
erything is in order, the   word   "Go"'**
will be given, the starter will press a*1
button and the wings will fold quickly
against the sides of the truck, which,
will speed away off the track.
The gate is owned and operated by
John C. Ifemmis, of Harrison, -an&
George S. Hillman, of Carson City,,
both licensed startei-s by the United*
States Trotting Association.
Another new feature of this year's*
fair is the calf scramble, in whiclu
boys of 13 to 17 years of age inclusive
will compete for calves which they
wil}. take home and feed for a year-
The calves will be returned to next?
year's fair and sojd at auction in front:
of the grandstand and aftef the price
of the calf has been taken out the balance will be turned over to the boy
who' raised the calf. Boys wishing to
compete should see Secretary, Ras„
Harrold.        ' ■       .    .    , "^
The new midway  located immediately behind the "grandstand will be'
occupied by Playland Shows,   among
3J^b^»ii'§^b.igfe;|t anfl best ajid.thfij
usual midway atti-actioiis.   * ^
The Clare, Harrison and Farwelf
High School bands will present
marching maneuvers and massed eon^ '
