Amherst sail, Ralph Prittie, E. E. Foster, holds victories over both these Richard Zilch and Ernest Schoeff- the first frame Dukes had la 19-11 lead and things looked ' bad for the home boys. The sec- jond quarter was an entirely dif- ! ferent story as the Comets started 1 to roll and outscored Wellington 23-11 to take a 34-30 halftimr lead. The Comets continued to go in the third period and piled up a 24-9 margin in that period. They sioweci down in the last quarter but camc out on the long end, 63.44) at the garne's end. Ru;s rjodson was especially hot in the first half and he set a season's record as he garnered 31 points for the evening. Bob Schroecicr marked up 16 points ard Dick Beam had 12 for the marKcrs. In the preliminary Wellington Reserves edged the Comet seconds 29-27 in an overtime game. The first half was slow with neither team able to do much : ' scoring. By the end of the third ! ai ..t uia n onn , quell IL1 rvillliciai iinu a lead. Wellington rallied in the last quarter and took the lead snortly before time ran out. The Comets tic(i jt Up however, and f d the ame int0 an extra peri()d Tne DUkes tallied four points to two for Amherst in the overtime and came off the winner.I TtllflpTltl f lOfl Man UlllULlllllUU UltUl Dies At Hospital Burial was made in Crownhill cemetery on Wednesday of this week of the still unidentified transient who died last week in Amherst hospital. Found wandering around town in a dazed condition, he was first taken to the village jail and then to the hospital where .he died a few hours later. The only clue to his identity was the murmured name of Charles O'Leary. All leads to his identity have so far proved valueless. Approximately 55 years of age, he had no iden tification of any sort on his body. Photographs and fingerprints were taken by the sheriff's department in case a chance of learning the man's identity should ever appear. Rev. C. C. Vandersall conducted the burial services at the grave. Burial was under the direction of the Zilch Funeral Home. A. Nabakowski left Saturday on a short vacation of two or three weeks at Hot Springs, Ark. The three crews were headed up by Harry Earl, Roy Stevens and W. J. Durling. Twenty-two high school boys assisted the men by going to every house in town to collect the clothing. Trucks were donated for the drive by the Amherst Lumber company, the A. Nabakowski company, and the U. S. Automatic corporation. Packing of the garments was Sirica m me Boa.nidsium ui uic Congregational church as soon as tne urst collections were in. Assisting in the packing were either had the clothing all ready Ior collection or naa tanen me bundles to the various depots, Although no quota had been set, the national goal was at least one garment for every person. Including the shoes, bedding, yard goods, and stockings (too numer- ous to tabulate) the Amherst drive exceeded the goal by a wide margin. Collection depots will remain jn the churches, schools, the post .office, and the gas office in Am- hcrst, and in the various places jn the outlying districts, until the end of the month. No further house-to-house canvass will be made but all clothing left ini the depots will be picked up. The largest, single contribution came from one home where the workers were given 96 garments, 22 pairs of shoes, and 24 yards of material. Other large contributions helped to swell the total collection, Zilch said. Zilch expressed appreciation for the help given in the drive and for the cooperation of everyone in the community. Booster Club Meeting Members of the Booster Club are urged to attend their meeting January 24 (tonight) at 8 p.m. at the high school in the study hall. Election of officers will be the main feature of the meeting. Kick Anthony Gets Discharge After 30 Months' Service Cpl.

Found wandering around town in a dazed condition, he was first taken to the village jail and then to the hospital where .he died a few hours later. The only clue to his identity was the murmured name of Charles O'Leary. All leads to his identity have so far proved valueless. Approximately 55 years of age, he had no iden tification of any sort on his body. Photographs and fingerprints were taken by the sheriff's department in case a chance of learning the man's identity should ever appear. Rev. C. C. Vandersall conducted the burial services at the grave. Burial was under the direction of the Zilch Funeral Home. A. Nabakowski left Saturday on a short vacation of two or three weeks at Hot Springs, Ark. The three crews were headed up by Harry Earl, Roy Stevens and W. J. Durling. Twenty-two high school boys assisted the men by going to every house in town to collect the clothing. Trucks were donated for the drive by the Amherst Lumber company, the A. Nabakowski company, and the U. S. Automatic corporation. Packing of the garments was Sirica m me Boa.nidsium ui uic Congregational church as soon as tne urst collections were in. Assisting in the packing were either had the clothing all ready Ior collection or naa tanen me bundles to the various depots, Although no quota had been set, the national goal was at least one garment for every person. Including the shoes, bedding, yard goods, and stockings (too numer- ous to tabulate) the Amherst drive exceeded the goal by a wide margin. Collection depots will remain jn the churches, schools, the post .office, and the gas office in Am- hcrst, and in the various places jn the outlying districts, until the end of the month. No further house-to-house canvass will be made but all clothing left ini the depots will be picked up. The largest, single contribution came from one home where the workers were given 96 garments, 22 pairs of shoes, and 24 yards of material. Other large contributions helped to swell the total collection, Zilch said. Zilch expressed appreciation for the help given in the drive and for the cooperation of everyone in the community.
