Last Year Violator
Responds Promptly
To Bench Warrant
James H. Bryan, of Alberta, Michigan, plead guilty October 16 of last
year, before Justice Wm. B. Dunlop in Municipal Court here, of failure to have stamps on apples in
violation of the Michigan Apple
Act, and was given his choice of
paying a fine of $25 or spending
20 days in the county jail. The
court gave him ten days to pay
the fine, but when he had not paid
September 14 of this year, a bench
warrant was issued for his arrest.
Apparently Bryan decided local authorities meant business, because
in four days from the time the warrant was issued here his check for
the fine had been returned.
Frank £.. Baker was arrested by
City I.OUJ-"-* la«t Friday for. .excessive'speed* through a school zorfe.
He was arraigned in Municipal

Te loss of two bicycles has been
reported to City Police in the past
week. One, which was left by the
owner in the city park, was found

1951 Chippewa seasdn.
Spearheading Central's attack
will be junior quarterback Andy
MacDonald, the nation's leading
small-college passer in 1950. MacDonald will have able support in
the backfield, but strength at tackle
and center positions poses a major
problem for Coach Bill Kelly, beginning his first season at the helm
of Central's football fortunes.
Former Clare High School Graduate To
Become Licensed Ham Radio Operator
, Tom Presley, son of Walter Presley of Sheridan township and a
graduate of Clare High School in
19-6, was given recognition for his
experience as an amateur radio fan
in the Cooped Craftsman, publication of the Phelps Dodge Copper
Products Corp.
"Calling CQ—•CQ—CQ—any 20
meter station this K-5 NAR in New
Orleans.
"To most of us, this lingo would-
- n't make any sense, but to Tom
Presley, of the Inspection Department, -this kind of talk fills his
sr are hours in his radio shack at
4815 Monroe St., Fort Wayne, Ind.
"Back in 1934, Tom became intrigued bv the mysteries of radio
as a Sophomore in (Clare) High
School. His shop instructor, being
well versed on the subject, taught
him the fundamentals of radio aud
it wasn't long until Tom was building his own little rigs. In tho years
that followed, all available material
on the subject was gathered with
groat anxiety and he soon became
faced with technecalities that only
proper schooling could answer. Not
having the means for attending a
Radio. School, the Army looked like
the only possible way to achieve
the proper learning, so in 1940 he
joined the Service, A'fter almost
two years of Ai'my life, he did not
receive any opportunities to further
his learning, so in 1942 Tom passed
an examination for Pildt training
and .entered the Air Force. But fate
intervened before hio Iraing was
completed and he, along - with
36,000 other trainees, were put bacb*
in the infantry to build up our
forces' for the big push in Europe,
In 1946 he received his discharge
and took advantage of the G. I.
BUI. By this time, Tom married and
started his family. He took'correspondence course, and after two
years of consistent study, the
course was completed and his diploma earned.
The next problem was equipment.
By purchasing used and war surplus material he soon acquired a
sufficient amount to start his work
shop, and for the past four years,
has been spending his spare time
repairing radios for friends and
neighbors and converting ex-Army
ahd Navy equipment. A business
fund was set up in the Presley family after his first repair job, and
some day after enough is accumulated he will start his own business.
"At present his shop has five
transmitters and six communication receivers, all but one of which
are war surplus."
"In September Tom will take an
examination for a license to Broadcast. He will then becon\e a "Ham-
Operator" and he privileged to tail-
to other hams all over the world.
At present he has enougli equipment to fill out both his shack and
automible with transmitters and receivers. After September listen in
On your short wave band and you
will prohahly hear Tom "shooting
the breeze" with other hams all
over the country."

Achievements Of Herbert H. Dow Outlined
In Book Now On Shelves Of Book Stores
A new book titled, "Herbert H.
Dow, Pioneer in Creative Chemistry" is on the shelves of book stores
today. It is the story written by
Murray Campbell and. Harrison
H-atton, of the achievements of the
man who began experimenting
with bromides in an old mill, and
whose success led him to the top
of the chemistry industry.
Published by Appleton-Cenlury-
Crofts, Inc., this book is a success
story in the best tradition. An interesting account of the personality and achievements of a remarkable scientist, it also reflects the
amazing growth of one of our
greatest industries,
"Herbert H. Dow was essentially
both a creator and a pioneer. His
native genius and foresight enabled him to build a fortune from
the very salts of the earth. As a
young man he entered the rudimentary chemical industry of the
lS90's hy inventing an entirely
new method of extracting bromine
from the prehistoric brine trapped
underground at Midland, Michigan.
His extraordinary talents were to
create process after process and
product after product until he and
his team of. fellow-pioneers had
built up The Dow Chemical Company, today, one of the giants of
the country's vast chemical industry.
Working with borrowed money
and homemade equipment of his
own devising, Dow first manufactured bromides later adding bleach
to his line. Eventually phenol, magnesium, and synthetic indigo were

Tlie glimpses shown here of today's modern highly technical apparatus are d'emonstratable evidence of the force of Herbert H.
Dow's creative ideas and perser-
verance." .
A Fussin' And
A Feudin'
For some time Spikehorn Meyers,
for many years a bear den operator
north of Clare on US-27, and his
most recent competitor, C. C. Rock,
who likewise operates a bear den
in the vicinity, have heen neighbors
—but not neighborly.
Recently a large bear has been
seen in the highway nearby at night
by motorists and Spikehorn not
only says its Rock's Kodiak, -which
he allowed to escape from his enclosure, but also that it is a "mean
bar".
Lasj; Friday morning Spikehorn
reported to Conservation Officer
Bill Griffin'that his albino deer had
been killed hy a bear during the
previous night—and Spikehorn insists that is was Rock's Kodiak that
clawed up Ms pet albino.
Griffin investigated and believes
the deer was killed by a bear, because of teeth marks on the albino's
nose and a broken neck. However
Griffin will not say what bear did
the dirty trick. There was hay piled
along the fence of Spikehorn's enclosure that would allow a bear to
climb in, but there is no apparent
means of the bear climbing out
again.
The only fur that has flown in
the feud up to the present timeis
bear fuV, but those boys have nice
"fur" of their own in case they
should get real personal about it
all.
Seriously, anyone who may see
the hear at large is warned to keep
away from it, as Kodiaks can be
really mean.
■Sgt. Robert Ford Peyton, who has
been serving in Korea since April,
is enroute home. He left Japan
September 8 and is scheduled to
arrive in the United States September 25. He expects to receive his
honorable discharge when he arrives in the States'and will make
his home at Marine City, Michigan.

Green Sox Defeat
Leaton In Eleven
Inning Battle
The Mt. Pleasant Green Sox defeated Leaton, Central Michigan
Base-fcj_.il League 1951 champions,
4-3 in an eleven inning pitchers'
battle Sunday. The Sox had defeated, the champions by the same
score Memorial Day, but were later
drubbed 14-9 in a league game.
It appeared that a big run in the
first would turn the trick for the
Sox as the Leaton batters failed to '
hit the ball out of the infield until
the ninth inning. Three Sox errors
in the ninth gave Leaton a 3-1 lead
and after the Sox tied it up in the
bottom of the inning, neither team
scored until the last of the eleventh
when, the Sox drove in the winning
run after two were out.

In the opening of the second
quarter Workman went 17 yards to
the .14, Figg drove to the three, and
Workman went off tackle to score.
Neil Green converted to put the
Bluejays one point ahead. After the
kick Clare failed to advance and
kicked to the Bluejay's 28. A Shepherd ground attack carried the ball
to the Pioneer's 28, the Bluejays
went to the air and -with a series
of passes carried the ball to the
Pioneer one yard line and plunged
over for their second touchdown.
Green again converted. Shepherd
14-Clare 6.
The Second half opened with a
Clare fumble on their own 36, in
three plays the Bluejays carried
the bait to the Pioneer's four and
Shepherd fumbled but Green picked
the ball up and scored. His attempt,
for conversion was wide. Shepherd
20-Clare 6.
Late in the fourth quarter Clare
recovered a Bluejay fumble On the
50 yard line and Ray Lucy broke
through center and -went all the
way. His kick was wide. Shepherd
received on their 41 and on the first

Pioneer 10. Figg carried the hall
over on a line play and Green
kicked successfully for his third

Clare's five; gained 233'yards rushing to Clare's 189, 56 yards passing
to Clare's five; with 310 yards
gained to Clare's 194. The Bluejays completed' six passes in 13 attempts and Pioneers two out of
five.
Brush Up For Cheboygan
This week has hp§n speut work-,
ing to correct mistakes which were
evident in the Shepherd game. Attention has been given to the defensive ends and the generalship
of the team.
Last Friday night's game was
Rich Smith's first Varsity game at
quarterback, and with a game or
two, under his belt he should prove
to be a capable signal /aller.
Coach Bill Seitz was satisfied
with the rdnning attack Of the
ptamc, especially that of Ray Lucy,
Mike Dwyer and Dick AVoodworth.
The line operated up to expectations for* the first game, but defensively the team did not measure
up to its ability.
Loss of the first game has not
dampened the spirits of the Pioneers and Ihey hope to bounce into
the winning column with a victory
over Cheboygan, They will lea^e
for Cheboygan Friday noon and return Saturday morning.
The Junior Varsity was scheduled
to play Midland there Thursday
evening.

The Stuart game bird releaser,
invented by Jack Stuart, of Far-
well proved very efficient when,
given it's first field test at the
Fanners Sportsman* Club of Flint
bird dog trials at Lapeer, Sunday,
September 9.
At its first tryout for bird dog
trials, the Stuart releaser proved
to have many advanages over hand
releasing. The birds were in good
condition to fly when they were released and it was impossible for
them to fly away before they were
pointed by the dogs, * -
The Stuart releaser is built in
two sizes, one ion pheasants and*
one for quail. The releasers are
constructed of aluminum- and wood
and when tripped, the bird is
thrown by a screen. In Sunday's
demonstration, pheasants were tossed from five to eight feet in the
air and took wing in a natural position Without lighting on the
ground.
The releaser holds the bird until
it is pointed by a dog and then the
handler trips it, !_ v _,

The smaller size is designed for
quail, in localities where pheasants
are not used, and is very desirable
to use for dog training at home
with common pigeons.
The releasers are finished"** in
dead grass> green color, and with a
little grass or brush .thrown over
thorn, are difficult to find except

The Stuart releaser will be used
at the Great Lakes Grouse Dog Association pheasant trials at Midland

Broken Into
City Police and victimized businessmen are considerably vexed because of four breaking a'nd enter- '
ings here the past week.
At 7:45 a.m. Thursday of last
week a breaking and entering at
the Brewer Implement Store waa
reported to the police. Entranoe
was gained through a broken rear
window on the east sidei of th»

open on the south aide of the building and about $105 was tftkan.
Electrical service was cut off frpitt
2;00 until 4;29 a.m, while.Consumers Power Co. employees wero
working on high tension lines ;.__
this vicinity. ' , .;*
At 1:00 o'clock Wednesday morning City Police found the front, door
of Gorky's Lunch unlocked-and investigation revealed' that entrance
had been accomplished by breaking
the glass in a back door. Apparently nothing had been taken. The fact
that the person or persons involved
had left through the front floor
leads police to believe that they
might have been frightened away
by the appearance of a police patrol car in the alley. ' - .'.'.
At 6:45 a.m. Friday a breaking
and entering was reported ' __t
Tfiaycrs' Dairy. Two windows were
broken on the west Bide of the

Dodge car stolen from Harrison,
was found parked at the scene ot
the breaking with broken window
glass on the car,
City Police are investigating

Dunlop in Municipal Court here, of failure to have stamps on apples in violation of the Michigan Apple Act, and was given his choice of paying a fine of $25 or spending 20 days in the county jail. The court gave him ten days to pay the fine, but when he had not paid September 14 of this year, a bench warrant was issued for his arrest.

Former Clare High School Graduate To Become Licensed Ham Radio Operator , Tom Presley, son of Walter Presley of Sheridan township and a graduate of Clare High School in 19-6, was given recognition for his experience as an amateur radio fan in the Cooped Craftsman, publication of the Phelps Dodge Copper Products Corp. "Calling CQ—•CQ—CQ—any 20 meter station this K-5 NAR in New Orleans. "To most of us, this lingo would- - n't make any sense, but to Tom Presley, of the Inspection Department, -this kind of talk fills his sr are hours in his radio shack at 4815 Monroe St., Fort Wayne, Ind. "Back in 1934, Tom became intrigued bv the mysteries of radio as a Sophomore in (Clare) High School. His shop instructor, being well versed on the subject, taught him the fundamentals of radio aud it wasn't long until Tom was building his own little rigs. In tho years that followed, all available material on the subject was gathered with groat anxiety and he soon became faced with technecalities that only proper schooling could answer. Not having the means for attending a Radio. School, the Army looked like the only possible way to achieve the proper learning, so in 1940 he joined the Service, A'fter almost two years of Ai'my life, he did not receive any opportunities to further his learning, so in 1942 Tom passed an examination for Pildt training and .entered the Air Force. But fate intervened before hio Iraing was completed and he, along - with 36,000 other trainees, were put bacb* in the infantry to build up our forces' for the big push in Europe, In 1946 he received his discharge and took advantage of the G. I. BUI. By this time, Tom married and started his family. He took'correspondence course, and after two years of consistent study, the course was completed and his diploma earned. The next problem was equipment. By purchasing used and war surplus material he soon acquired a sufficient amount to start his work shop, and for the past four years, has been spending his spare time repairing radios for friends and neighbors and converting ex-Army ahd Navy equipment. A business fund was set up in the Presley family after his first repair job, and some day after enough is accumulated he will start his own business. "At present his shop has five transmitters and six communication receivers, all but one of which are war surplus." "In September Tom will take an examination for a license to Broadcast. He will then becon\e a "Ham- Operator" and he privileged to tail- to other hams all over the world. At present he has enougli equipment to fill out both his shack and automible with transmitters and receivers. After September listen in On your short wave band and you will prohahly hear Tom "shooting the breeze" with other hams all over the country."
