THREE YOUNG MEN KILLED
IN CROSSING ACCIDENT.
Ford Coupe Hit by Passenger Train
Below Howard Friday Afternoon.
Three young men lost their lives
when a passenger train west-bound
cn the Bald Eagle Valley railroad,
smashed into the Ford coupe in which
they were riding, on the brick works
crossing about half a mile east of
Howard, at 4:21 o'clock Friday after-
noon. The victims were: ;
Paul Diehl, aged 14, son of Wil-
liam Diehl, of Hartleton, killed in-
stantly.
Leo Welch, aged 17, son of David
L. Welch, killed instantly. ;
Cecil Calvin Smith, aged 20 died
in Centre County hospital at 8:25 Fri-
day evening.
Smith was the owner and driver of
the Ford coupe in which the young
men were riding. They had gone
from Howard down to the home of
David Hanna and were on their way
back to Howard when the accident
happened. The road they traversed
parallels the railroad track for fif-
teen or twenty rods and the young
men evidently gave no thought to the
approaching train which was thunder-
ing along back of them. In any event
when they reached the. crossing they
made no effort to stop but turned
sharp across the railroad.
The engineer of the train threw on
the air but as he was running about
forty-five miles an hour it was im-
possible to stop the train and the car
was hit full on the side. Both Welch
and Diehl were thrown from the car
and landed on the track, but were
caught under the train, Diehl’s body
being picked up a hundred feet from
the crossing. His skull was crushed
and he was cut and biuised. Welch's
body was found two hundred feet from
the crossing. He had been rolled and
dragged by the train and the body was
badly crushed, many bones being
broken.
Smith was found in the wreckage
of the car which was carried on the
cowcatcher of the locomotive several
hundred feet. He was still alive, but
suffered a fractured leg, a punctured
lung, numerous cuts and bruises and
internal injuries. He was brought to
the Centre County hospital but died
the same evening. Smith, who lived
with and was the principal support of
his grandmother, Mrs. Amelia Smith,
who raised him from childhood, was
a graduate of the Howard High school
class of 1925. He had been in the
employ of the Sheffield Farms com-
pany during the past year.
Leo Welch was a Howard High
school student while Diehl, who was
living with his grandmother, Mrs.
Joseph Diehl, was a grammar school
student. Diehl’s body was taken to
the home of his parents, at Hartle-
day. Welch was buried in the Schenck
cemetery, near Howard, on Monday,
and Smith’s funeral was held the same
day.
Corner W. R. Heaton, of Philips-
burg, viewed the scene of the acci-
dent and exonerated the engineer of
the train of all blame.
Railroad Rumors Running.
On Wednesday the Inter-State Com-
merce Commission granted the re-
quest of the Pennsylvania R. R. Co.,
to be permitted to abandon that part
of the upper end of the Lewisburg
and Tyrone branch between Fairbrook
and Stover Station. Some years ago
the part between Scotia and Fair-
brook was abandoned and the rails
taken up. y
There s a condition , however, in the
permit clause of the Commerce Com-
mission’s grant. It says, in substance,
that before the road is abandoned and
the tracks torn up it must be offered
for sale as it stands so that if anyone
else thinks they can operate the sec-
tion to be abandoned they will have a
chance to buy. This clause has start-
ed a lot of rumors. Some are to the
effect that the Bellefonte Central is
considering its purchase. What for?
Well, your guess is as good as ours s
we will venture nOne. :
We do know that local interests
have been buying into Bellefonte Cen-
tral and there has been’ considerable
speculation as to what it means.
There is no traffic advantage ap-
parent in the acquisition of the L. and
T. by the Bellefonte Central for at
Tyrone it would meet the same termi-
nal conditions it does at Bellefonte.
We are inclined to think that if the
local company is interested at all it
is only for the 100 lb rails on the sec-
tion to be abandoned.
American Legion Making Plans for
Armistice Day.
The Brook—Doll post of the Amer-
ican Legion, of Bellefonte, has com-
pleted tentative plans for the cele-
bration of Armistice day on November
11th. They provide for a public meet-
ing in the Diamond at 11 o’clock, the
zero hour, with music and prominent
speakers. A big parade will be held
at two o’clock in the afternoon when
the new bugle and drum corps of the
Legion will make it’s first public ap-
pearance. Later in the afternoon
there will be a football game on
Hughes field between the Bellefonte
High school and Lewistown High
elevens, and in the evening the Legion
annual banquet in the Legion home on
Howard street.

Pledges of Support.
The drive put on last week by the
business men of Bellefonte for a fund
{ sufficient to support the Bellefonte Y.
M. C. A. during the coming year
proved a success. The men started
out to raise $5000, the amount needed
for support, and at a meeting held on
Friday evening the reports showed
that the goal had been almost attain-
ed. In fact they were just $400 short
of the desired sum, and it is under-
stood that this small deficiency has:
practically been made up.
In addition to the money raised for
support pledges of $2000 were made
toward a fund of $3000 for fixing up
the swimming pool. Additional
pledges of $200 have been received
since Friday evening so that the small
sum of $800 is all that is needed to
guarantee the restoration of the pool
as one of the big winter attractions
at the Y. And the men who have been
in charge of the drive feel confident
that this amount will be forthcoming
in due time.
With an assurance of ample support
for another year secretary Heineman
will be able to devote all his energies
to injecting new lifeblood into the
Association generally. He has al-
ready mapped out a program of win-
ter sports that should prove quite at-
tractive to the young of Bellefonte as
well as some of maturer years. If
the people generally would devote just
a little of their time every week to the
Association there would be no ques-
tion as to its success.
This is a personal invitation to
every woman in Bellefonte and Cen-
tre county, who is in any way inter-
ested in the work of the Y, especially
as it effects the physical, moral and
spiritual welfare of the youth of thi
community. :
This call comes not from the board
of directors nor from any official of
the institution, but from the women
themselves, and is the result of a pre-
liminary meeting, at which it was
decided to ask every woman of the
community to attend a meeting to be
held at the Y. on Monday October
24th, at 8 p. m., at which time action
will be taken to effect an organization
among the women to work in conjunc-
tion with the management for the
good of the community. Officers will
be chosen and a name by which the
women’s organization shall be known
will be selected.
In view of the fact that the opening
of the swimming pool is almost in
sight, and that the scope of the work
of the Y will be enlarged, the mothers
and friends of the boys and girls feel
that the time has come for all to take
a hand and do their share to help
make he Y. M. C. A. the real commun-
ity centre of Centre conty.

Council Elected Miss Sarah M. Love
Borough Tax Collector.
Bellefonte will now make a try with
its first woman tax collector, Miss
Sarah M. Love having been elected to
that office by borough council, on
Wednesday evening, as successor to

Finance committee, reported that he
had seen two of the county commis-
sioners and they stated that they
would be satisfied with whoever coun
cil would elect. :

Mr. Eckel nominated Miss Love. Mr.
Badger nominated A. O. Kline, Mr.
Brouse seconding both nominations.
Mr. Cunningham moved that the nom-
inations close and the motion carried.

the same time, whereupon Mr. Eckel
stated that he was authorized to pre-
sent her resignation as assessor to

promptly accepted.
John Kelly Must Face Court Trial for
Causing Boy’s Death.
At a hearing before justice of the
peace John M. Keichline, last Friday
evening, John Kelly, of Bellefonte,
was held in $3000 bail for trial at
court for furnishing moonshine liquor

of Coleville, a week previous, thus
causing the boy’s death. On Saturday
another warrant was sworn out charg-
ing Kelly with furnishing moonshine
liquor to William Mills, a minor, and
on this charge he was held in $2000
bail. Not being able to furnish bond

Halfmoon township schools will join
in holding a vocational fair at the re-
modeled school building, next Thurs-
day, October 27th. The program will

be dedicated. The address will be

sion librarian of Harrisburg, and Miss

American Red Cross, will bring mes-
sages regarding their plans and pro-

Dr. Dunaway, of State College, will
probably speak on racial origin of
Pennsylvania population, and all will
know what to anticipate when Mrs.
Haller and Miss Vought, also of the
College, are on the program.
The reports from organizations
must, of necessity, be very brief, and
for this time should note only (1) the
success in the development of special
work; and (2) the surmounting of
unusual difficulties in club life. The
written complete reports should be
given to the secretary.
The public is most cordially invited
to hear this important program,
which will teem with the idea of “My-
: ‘| self and Others.”

rainy weather, on Monday afternoon,
Samuel King, of Armstrong county,
made his escape from Rockview peni-
tentiary. He was one of more than a
hundred prisoners employed on the
construction of the big dam.in Nit-
tany mountain and his absence was
not noticed until late in the afternoon.

identity of the man. King was sent

years for entering and larceny. He is
36 years old, five feet five and a half
inches in height and weighs 157
pounds. He was dressed in a light
shirt, light blue trousers and blue
overalls.

The Scenic 100% Program.
During our nineteen years exper-
lence in exhibiting we have never
offered the theatre going public a
more notable program than the one
we have scheduled for next week.
On Monday and Tuesday we will
show Paramount’s remarkable specta-
| cle “Metropolis.” It is the camera
! depicting, as it
does, what life on the globe might be
conceived to be a thousand years from
today.
On Wednesday and Thursday First
National's most popular feminine
star, Billy Dove, will scintillate in
“The Stolen Bride”, a picture that is
genuine entertainment all the way
through. Lloyd Hughes supports
Miss Dove in this splendid film-play.
To conclude the week, Friday and
Saturday, we will show another First
National success, “The Prince of Head
Waiters,” with Lewis Stone, Priscilla
Bonner and Lilyan Tashman carrying
the leads.
This constitutes what we call a
100% program. Few towns, any-
where, have the advantage of the
consistently good pictures we are
showing. “The Way of All Flesh”,
shown at the Scenic the fore part of
this week as just part of the regular
program, is really a screen classic and
in other places might have been
played up as a smoke-screen to cover
up a lot of old and cheap pictures, but
we don’t resort to such subterfuge.
We show good ones all the time and
if you miss any you are likely to re-
gret it as much as those who didn’t
see “The Way of all Flesh” have rea-
son to do.
Come in, next week. See our 100%
program and we guarantee you 100%
pleasure.

every motorist.
Up to this time you have been buy-
ing tires with no further guarantee
than factory adjustments that often
proved unsatisfactory.
Now we are in position to insure
every standard make of tire we sell
for an entire year. We insure them
against every road hazzard, such as
blow-outs, accidents, stone cuts, glass
cuts, bruises, rim cuts, wheel _mis-
alignment under inflation and negli-
gence.
We will make all repairs free and,
in addition, if the tire is rendered
useless within twelve months of the
date of its purchase, we will put a
new tire on your rim without cost.
We have a fine line of auto acces-
sories. Come in and see them.

——The further along the work of
remodeling the Moose theatre pro-
gresses the more apparent it becomes
that Bellefonte is going to have a
mighty creditable play house when it
is completed. Plasterers are now at
work, When they are through the
finish will be put on. While the re-
pairs are being pushed as rapidly as
possible it will probably be the first
of the year before the house is ready
for its opening.
