Hoeft  Outpitches  Nearhood  to  Win
Game; Sand Laker8 Allowed
But Four Hits.
The Saline nine showed a superior
quality of ball in defeating: the Sand j
Lake team, Sunday afternoon, by a i
score of 4-3.    The game was played
to   settle   that   of   two weeks  ago,
when the locals and the Sand Lakers.!
battled: to a 2-2 tie, as the game was*.
called in the ninth because of rain
and wet grounds.
Airtight ball was played by both
teams. Sand Lake had three errors,
Saline six, and both showed a league
brand of fielding. Durkee and On-
sted of Sand Lake, and Estermyer
and Ormsby of Saline, thrilled the
crowd by making difficult catches of
fly balls and scooping up what appeared to be sure hits. Estermyer)
as in last weeks game, managed to
steal in for a run.

Saline Site Considered
\„   F°r Ventilator Company
»und   at   City limits and Tracks
Probably WiU be Chosen
for Factory.
. The Western Rotary Ventilator
Company of Los Angeles and Detroit
is planning to locate a factory here,
it was learned last week.
Nothing definite is known as yet,
but a final decision is expected soon.
The site which probably will be
chosen consists of about three acres,
belonging to John Feuerbacher, that
lay along the railroad tracks at the
north city limits. Mr. Feuerbacher's
son, Edward, now .runs a blacksmith
shop on the property and another
son, Clarence, is an official of the
ventilator company.
It is expected that the new plant
wiU employ eight or ten men at the
start and that after a time that
number will be increased to approxi*
mately 25. This will mean much to
the continued growth and proseprity
of Saline.
The company has sold a number of
ventilators in the east and because
of the fact that the home plant, Los
Angeles, is at so great a distance
several orders bave been lost, it is
said. If a plant is set up here the
fault will be remedied.

that type of work.
The membership of the camp will

The entire camn is under canvas

COUNTY FAHi MANAGER
Have yon read the liners Ads?
Prospects Bright for Annual Expo-
sifion; Premium Books -Now
Being Distributed.
Floya Clark, Ypsilanti, has been
named manager of the 1931 Washtenaw county fair. Mr. Clark will
hold ©ffice for approximately two
months.
Mr. Clark, for more than 10 years
in charge of the Gotfredson farms
near, Ypsilanti, was selected by ip.
committee composed of R. H. Alber,
Ernest Lohr and Frank McLane, all
directors .of the Fair society.
The new manager, who fills uie
position held by R. C. Merithew,
Manchester, from 1927 through 1930,
has been exhibitor at many fairs and
directors of the society today said
they believed him well qualified for
the post.
The new fair book shows 22 divisions will comprise the 1931 exposition. The opening, Tuesday, Sept.
1, will be Children's day, with the
Ann Arbor Kiwanis club sponsoring
the entertainment. Children under
15 years of age and boys and girls'
club members will be admitted tree.
Judging in all Departments will
begin Wednesday, Sept. 2. Judges
for this year's exposition have been
especially instructed to give reasons
for their platings. Thursday will be
known as Homecoming day, with one
of the features being a huge livestock parade. The closing day,
Friday, Sept. 4, -will be known a>
Pioneer day. All animals which win
places will be paraded and the usual
program of horse racing and other
entertainment will be presented.
The celebration of their Centennial
Anniversary by the Presbyterians of
Saline, on Sunday, July 19, was a
great success in every way. Each
committee in charge of preparations
for the occasion had done its work
thoroughly, and the church was
beautifully decorated "with large
banks of flowers. At about 9.30 in
the morning the visitors from but of
town began to arrive and were
greeted at the door by the reception
committee. From the time the first
people came until late in the afternoon the church was the scene of
many greetings and happy reminiscences.
At ten o'clock the organ played the
prelude, and the services began. Special music has been arranged for the
occasion and was sung by a large
choir made up of the present and
former singers of the church. Two
anthems were sung by the large
choir- and the other music for the
morning consisted of music by the
Men's quartette, a cornet solo ana
the church orchestra.
Dr. Crooks, President of Alma
College spoke on, "The Church of a
Hundred Years Ago". He proved to
be an excellent speaker and delivered
an address, that was most .'appropriate for the occasion.
After a short session of the Sunday School, a bountiful dinner was
served in the dining room by the
young ladies of the church. At the
the repast a large cake which bore
the inscription, The Presbyterian
Church of Saline, 100 years old was
brought in and handed to Rev. Kircher. The cake was cut into many
pieces and everyone present was
given a portion.
At two o'clock the afternoon
program began, and more music was
furnished. Arthur Lutz read a
history of Saline Presbyterian
Church, and copies were given to
all present. Mrs. Aprili then read
.a number of letters from members
-who were unable -to be present.
The meeting came to a close late
in the afternoon with the summing
up of the blessing of "Godly Parents"
by Rev. C. E. Kircher. The register
shows that there were approximately
•400 guests during the day. Many
-came from other states—Ohio, Illinois, Maryland and Nebraska. Saline
and other cities of the state supplied
the largest number of visitors, however, Detroit, Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor,
Wayne, Milan, Lansing, Kalamazoo,
Rochester, Manchester and several
parts of Michigan "were represented.
