Platters Lose
to Ashland in
Fremont Tourney
Ashland Quintet Winners 24 to 18
and Advance to Play Against
Fremont Team Tonight.
From Friday's Dally
The Plattsmouth basketball quin
tet last evening lost their second
round game of the Fremont tourna
ment to the Ashland team by the
score of 24 to 18.
The locals seemed to lack the speed
and fire that had characteried the
play during the season and were
early headed by the Ashland team,
paced by Bilford, guard, who ac
cumulated twelve of the scores of the
Saunders county crew.
Ashland took a lead in the open
ing quarter which at the half gave
them a 11 to 6 margin over the blue
and white.
In the third quarter the Platters
forged to the front and for a few
moments held a small lead on the
Saunders crew, but Bilford again
grew hot and put his team out in
front.
The tourney was featured by the
fright that the Nebraska City team,
twice defeated by Plattsmouth, gave
Fremont, one of the favored teams
Nebraska City held a 13 to 3 lead
against Fremont at the quarter, but
Fremont rallied for a 15 all count at
the half. The final score was 32 to 24
for Fremont
Columbus won from David City,
18 to 10. Wahoo, one of the favor
ites, of the tourney, won from Blair,
CS to 14.
Ashland will play Fremont in the
upper bracket this evening while Co
lumbus and Wahoo meet.

present Thursday evening at the
high school gym, had the opportun
ity of seeing the Harlem Globe Trot
ters, colored stars in full action. The
visitors won by the score of 39 to 37
from the Donat's Falstaff. The game
was replete with plenty of clowning
by the visiting players, their antics

visitors led 23 to 17 at the half time
and had plenty of time to win as
well as give the fans their money's
worth of entertainment. Donat, local

J. A. Miller and wife, who have
conducted the service station for A.
H. Ward, last week departed for Ne
hawka, where Mr. Miller has se
cured employment and they will
make their home.
John Gakemeier was called to Elm
wood to look after business matters
and happened along Just as the car
of George Miller refused to work, so
was able to pick Mr. and Mrs. Mil
ler and son Robert up and take them
to Elmwood.

a salesman for the Mercantile store.
but has been working elsewhere for
some time, recently accepted an of
fer cf employment with his former

Bad Boads Halt dicing
Because the Iowa roads (as well as
Nebraska) have been covered with a
coating of snow, slush and ice, to say
nothing of mud, since ths weather
has moderated, C. A. Kupke has been
prevented froiu-.mpving. This keens
Walter. .vOakeiucyer frc-ra moving and
that in turn retards E. H. Miller in
moving here from Adams. However
Mrs. Miller and Maxine are here vis
iting .until such, time as Mr. Miller
may be able to move their household
ejects and farm equipment here.

with many fine gifts in token of the
high esteem in which she is held by
her friends.
.. Still Battling the Lad Eoads
i.John Eppings, the highway patrol
man is still a very busy fellow, for
with the coming of moderate weath
er the huge snowbank3 which had
shut off traffic on the highway are
melting and becoming rivers that cut
the roadway badly as the water seeks
to reach lower levels, between the
snowbanks at ' the roadside which
prevent it from getting into the
ditches, where it is supposed to run.
To add to this, the frost is coming
out of the ground, causing many
"soft" spots to show up that are a
menace to traffic. Withal, he has
succeeded wonderfully and with the
aid of loyal citizens of Murdock is
making a good road out of the long
stretch cf snowdrifts that existed a
short time ago. Last Wednesday he
was able to get over the road with
his maintainer and now has it in very
good condition. As a result of his
painstaking work, this route has
become the outlet for people residing
in the vicinity of Louisville seeking
to get to the county seat, the Platts-mouth-Louisville
road still being in
very bad shape.
Death of William McNamara
Word was received here last Wed
nesday from Fairmont, telling of the
death of William McNamara, brother
of Mrs. W. O. Gillespie. Mr. and Mrs.

Mrs. Eddie Craig returned home
from Lincoln, whore she had visited
her mother, Mrs. E. D. Friend, who is
in a hospital there. he found the
mother greatly improved and with
hopes for her complete recovery. This
will be pleasing news to the many
friends of the patient, both here and
in the vicinity cf her home near
Alvo.
Mr. and Mrs. L. Neitzel Sick
Mrs. L. Neitzel has been very
poorly for some time and confined to
her bed for several v.eelts. To make
matters worse, Mr. Neitzel was also
taken ill and had to ho. taken home.
With the two of them sick, their
daughter, Mr3. O. J. Hitchcock, came
from her home at Ilavelock, bringing
a nurse with her to assist in look-
! mg after the parents. It is hoped

ing of the voters of Murdock wa3 held
to place in nomination candidates for
members cf the town board to be
voted upon at the election Tuesday,
April 7, in conjunction with the

Monday evening and after transact
ing various matters of routine busi

7. The nominees are I. C. McCrory,
August Ruge, R. A. Kuehn and Ferd
Kcsenow. All are excellent men for
the place and have the interest of the

not jgo wrong, regardless of whom
they may select.

ine woman s Missionary society
and the Young Peoples Missionary
uircie or me cananan cnurcn are
carrying on Stewardship contests
during the month of March.

Services Ecsuned.
The regularly appointed services
were resumed in both the Louisville
and Murdock Evangelical churches
last Sunday, March 1. The faithful
worshlpcprs were happy to be back
at their accustomed places of wor
ship after the last few weeks of se
vere weather. The Nebraska Con
ference Concerted Lenten program
was begun last Sunday, as the con
gregations were challenged with "The
King's Business." Lenter guest boxes
were distributed at the close of the
services to be used during the season
to receive the daily contributions of
Christ's followers.
Callahan Church Notes
F. C. Weber, Pastor
We certainly enjoyed having a fins
attendance Sunday. It was like home
coming to many of us. We are hop-
ing that all can be more regular now.
The greatest need of the world to
day is emancipation from the power
of sin and envy and hate. There is
desperate need of economic help for
a world wasted by war; but the call
for -moral and spiritual help is great
er still. Repentance means a com
plete reverse of ruling motives in in
dividual and social life. The Chris
tlan message is still good news, and
Is to be carried to the ends of the
earth by the followers of Jesu3. God
has plenty of spiritual current, but
it does the world good only as it
passes through the human lamp.
Taken to the Hospital
The condition of L. Neitzel, whose
illness is mentioned elsewhere in
this department, became very grave
the latter part of the week and on
Thursday he was taken to the Bryan
Memorial hospital in Lincoln. His
friends trust that he will show im
provement as a result of his treat
ment there. The condition of Mrs
Neitzel, who is also ill at their home
here, remains about the same as ear
lier in the week.

Life
Feels Very Grateful
John Epping. the road patrol man.
is very grateful to the volunteers
who aided in getting the roads open
ed to traffic and also to those who
aided in this gcod work by providing
the men with places of shelter to
get' warm, and' furnished them with
hot coffee and lunch to keep up their
energy during long hours of shovel
ing snow in the sub-zero weather.
It was a fine example of co-operation
on the part of everyone. Charles and
Fred Buell opened their homes to the
workers and provided them with hot
coffee and warm lunch. W. O. Gil
lespie who operates the school bus,
not having occasion to use it during
the time the roads were blocked to
transport pupil3 (since there was no
school) installed a stove therein and
drove to the place where the men
were at work, placing it at their dis
posal to provide them with a warm
place to cat their midnight lunch
and also to step in and get warm,
as the biting cold made working dif
ficult even when they kept steadily
at the job of shoveling out the huge
drifts. The kindness and aid of all
these people is greatly appreciated
by Mr. Eppings and his crew of work
men. Village Board Meeting.
