One of the important business transactions that has taken place in State College during the present sum- mer is the sale of the fire insurance agency conducted for a number of years past by Mr. John L. Holmes, to Mr. John T. Taylor, who took poses- sion of the business yesterday. With Mr. Taylor will be associated Mr. Lynn R. Daugherty, and it is the in- tention of these men to continue the former agency of Mi. Holmes along more general and complete lines, mak- ing available to the public not only fire, but accident, life, and other types of insurance service. Both Mr. Taylor and Mr. Daugherty are well known to the residents of State College. The former has been a member of the faculty in the School of Liberal Arts of The Pennsylvania State College since 1918, and recently resigned his position in the depart- ment of economics to enter his new activities. For the past three years Mr. Taylor has been in charge of in- struction in the advertising and in fire and life insurance and he is well ac- quainted with these lines of endeavor, both in theory and practice. For some time he has been very active in pro- moting the welfare of State College, and when the Chamber of Commerce was organized recently, was elected its secretary, a position which he now holds and to which he devotes much of his time. Mr. Daugherty is a graduate of Penn State of the class of 1914. Since 1917 he has been the district agent in Centre county for the Connecticut Mu- tual Life Insurance company, of Hart- ford, Connecticut, and in that capaci- ty has become well known in this vi- cinity. The new firm has leased an office in the front part of the second floor of the Wood building at 118 south Allen street, just over the entrance to the Pastime theatre, and will henceforth carry on its activities in that location. This office will be in charge of Miss Clara T. Bateson, of Scranton, Pa., who comes possessing a wide exper- ience in the insurance business and an expert knowledge of the most modern and approved methods in agency man- agement, being thoroughly acquaint- ed with the latest filing and indexing systems used in the underwriting pro- fession. Pittsburgh Pirates to Play in Hunt- ingdon. When George Gibson’s Pittsburgh Pirates of the National league drop into Huntingdon on September 7th, for a game with Huntingdon, local fans are to have the rare privilege of getting a look at the team that has the inside track to the pennant in the National league race. That the Pitts- burgh boys are pretty sure to be on top at the finish is not guess work, but the assertion is made after a very close analysis of the playing talent in the National. One does not have to go far in testing the playing strength of the various clubs in the old circuit to come to the decision that in every department of the game the Bucca- neers have the edge on their oppo- nents. Huntingdon will present a very strong line up and are determined to make Pittsburgh hustle to the limit to win. Randolph and Donelson will pitch. The outfield and infield will be selected from the best players of the Huntingdon and Mount Union teams. Harvey—Luse.—John Fred Harvey, of State College, and Miss Helen Luse, of Centre Hall, were married at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Milford Luse, at Centre Hall, on Wednesday of last week, by Rev.
