COLE.—Just nine days after the
death of his wife John Leach Cole
passed away at the Centre County
hospital at 8.30 o’clock, on Wednesday
morning, ignorant of the fact that
she had preceded him. The cause of
his death was pneumonia, the result
. of an attack of the grip, and he had
been ill less than three weeks.
He was a son of Edward T. and
Margaret E. Leach Cole and was born
at Belleville, Mifflin county, on Octo-
ber 25th, 1863, hence was in his 65th
year. The family came to Centre
county in 1868 and located on a farm
near Zion where Mr. Cole grew to
manhood and, following in the foot-
steps of his father, engaged in farm-
ing. He also served one term as post-
master at Zion. Five years ago he
retired from the farm and moved to
Bellefonte, later going to work for
the Keystone Power corporation,
where he worked until becoming ill
early this month. He was a lifelong
member of the Zion Lutheran church
and in politics a staunch Democrat.
On November 1st, 1887, he married
Miss Ida B. Shaffer, who passed away
on Monday morning of last week.
Their only son, Nevin E. Cole, died
very suddenly a few years ago. Sur-
viving him, however, are three broth-
ers and two sisters, Lawrence Cole,
of Dayton, Ohio; William, of Gale-
ton, Col.; Mrs. A. C. Koontz and Sam-
uel Cole, of Dayton, Ohio, and Mrs.
A. G. Robb, of Altoona.
Brief funeral services will be held
at his late home, on east Bishop
street at two o’clock tomorrow (Sat-
urday) afternoon, which will be con-
tinued at the Lutheran church in Zion.
Rev. C. E. Arnold will officiate, assist-
¢d by Rev. Robert Thena, burial to be
made in the Zion cemetery.

widow of the late William Grauer, for
many years residents of Bellefonte,
was found dead in bed at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. Jacob Sitnek, Al-

afternoon. She had gone to her room
about two o’clock for a brief rest, as
was her daily custom, and remaining
longer than usual, members of the
household went to her room and found

bed, already cold in death. Cerebral
apoplexy was assigned as the cause.

Bellefonte and it was here she mar-

“Altoona Preparing for Spring Motor
Racing.
The puffing of a shifting engine
moving a trainload of lumber on the
special siding Monday signaled the
famous Altoona speedway as a small
opening of the sixth season as the
‘army of workmen swarmed over the
mammoth board oval preparing it for
the annual Flag day 200-mile cham-
pionship classic on June 16, the track’s
tenth event.
Delayed by the late spring in prep-
arations, intense activity will prevail
at the colorful bowl for the next eight
weeks, getting it in readiness for the
arrival of the eighteen noted racing
Pilots who will face the red starting
ag.
From the present indications, the
Flag day event on the speedway at
Tipton will be the only major classic
held in the east, except for the In-
dianapolis sweepstakes, during
the fore part of the 1928 racing sea-
in 1925. He is survived by one son | son, according to A. H. Means, sec-
and a daughter, Plummer A. Swartz,
of Elizabeth, N. J., and Mis Lydia,
at home. Burial was made at Lew-
istown on Monday. I

HOLT.—John Holt, a lifelong resi- |
dent of Bald Eagle valley, died at the
Philipsburg hospital, on April 13th,
following a lingering illness with a
complication of diseases.
He was a son of Russell and Eliza
Bowman Holt and was born at Julian
seventy years ago. He is survived by
his wife and one daughter, Mrs.
Jones, of Port Matilda. He also
leaves two brothers and three sisters,
Isaac Holt, of Julian; Zachariah, of
Unionville; Mrs. Martha Ludwig, of
Bellefonte; Mrs. Verna Harris, of Ju-
lian, and Mrs. Anna Weaver, of Som-
erset. Burial was made at Julian on
Monday of last week.
retary of the A. A. A. contest board
at Washinton, D. C. :
“The intense speed of the race cars
in our previous nine big classics have
made it necessary for us to spend
thousands of dollars in strenghtening
the racing deck to protect the drivers
so far as humanly possible,” declared
Frank P. Cramer, president of the
speedway. “While it is impossible for
us to completely protect the pilots be-
cause of their own daring, as well as
their terrific speed, yet we are using
every effort to prevent further trag-
edies similar to those which cost the
lives of Howdy Wilcox, Jimmy Mur-
phy, Joe Boyer and the many others.”
With a crop of ticket clerks already
filling advance reservations for the
classic, racing experts predicted
another monster crowd of spectators
would witness the classic on June 16.
i Thousands of orders have already
been filled.
