DODGE -PLYMOUTH Phone 283 25 Seconds Tip Louisville, 14-13 LOUISVILLE Louisville High came within 25 seconds of win ning the Southeast Nebraska Eight playoff here Friday night, bowing in a 14-13 football thriller to Syracuse, its nemesis this year. There were only 25 seconds, left to play when Syracuse, the favorite, came from-behind to punch across the . equalizing touchdown. Bruce Smith scored from the one-yard Jine to knot it at 13:13. Then with the championship at stake, Larry Ruge plunged for the extra point to break the deadlock. It was a disappointing climax for Louisville which had lost to Syracuse in the regular season, 28-20, but battled back here to hold the upper hand most of Frl- day night's game. Louisville took a 6-0 lead in the first quarter when quarter Local Men Play With Trteynor Team Saturday evening the Treynor, la., football team journeyed to Clarinda, la. to engage the town team of that place. In the game the Clarinda team was winner 21 to 6. Accompanying the Trey nor team were Howard Eaton and John Porter of this city as well as Wayne Maotdas of Belle vue. Wayne departed Sunday to join the army. Omaha Filter Center To Close January 15th Effective at 9 a.m. January 15 the Omaha filter center will no longer receive calls from this area of the Ground Observers Corps. The reason is that the build ing occupied by this part of the Civilian Defense has been sold and the government unable to continue the occupancy of the same. On and after the 15th of Jan uary all calls will be re-routed to the Des Moines Filter Center as a matter of economy. The Ground Observer Corps needs the support of all those interested in Civilian Defense. If you can give of your time when Ifhese alerts are sounded call P, F. Rihn or A. C. Mc Lean. The local center had alerts on October 14 and 15 and again on November 13th between the hour of 1 p.m. and 10 p.m. but on both occasions the ceiling was too low and no planes flying. The Right Word Is Important Contrary to common belief which is influenced by confus ion of terms, gas is a cause of a very small percentage of fires in the U.S., W.T.Gleason, dis trict manager of the Central Electric and Gas Co. here says. He said figures from the com mittee on statistics and origin of losses of the National Board of Fire Underwriters show that for the decade from 1946 to 1955 only 1.73 per cent of fire claims reported were caused by gas. Gleason said freauently stor ies about fires and explosions blame gas when gas was not in volved. This may be because gas is often used as a shortened term for gasoline and as a syn onym for other gaseous subs tances which have nothing to do with "gas" as most people know the word in every day life. Unfortunately, he said, "gas" 1 a short word which fits into headlines readily. REALTY TRANSFERS Irene A. Troop to George T. Troop, 11-2-57, W 38' Lot 2 Blk. 46 Young & Hays Add Platts mouth, $1.
