WADDLE TO STATE COLLEGE
HIGHWAY WORK STARTED
The new concrete highway from |
Waddle to State College, a distance
of over six miles, will be at least
partially built this fall. The Ross
Construction company of Pitts-
burgh, which has the contract, is
getting its machinery and equipment
on the ground ready to begin work.
The Highway Department en-
gineers have - established headquar-
ters. at State College and began
work, on Monday, staking out the
route of the road, which will follow
fairly close the course of the present
road. Herbert Bilger, of Bellefonte,
is a member of the corps and he and
his bride of several months have
taken rooms with a private family,
at the College, for as long as the
job will last.
Charles Cruse, a former Belle.
fontian, has been delegated as inspec-
tor on the job and, with his wife
and child, arrived in Bellefonte the
latter part of the week and will
make their headquarters here.
The Chemical Lime company has
secured the contract for the stone
for the concrete, so that everything
is all set to push the work as fast as
possible.
Rhoads Bros., of this place have
the contract for all the bridges on
the route and they began work ex-
cavating at locations on Monday
morning.
While the route through “the Bar-
rens” will not be changed much
from the present course of No. 250,
when it reaches the Buffalo Run val-
ley it will not follow what is known
as the Scotia road, either back to
Waddle or on to Gray's church. In
fpet it will emrege from “the Bar-
rens” west of the Horseshoe curve
on the Bellefonte Central R. R., cut
north across the Sellers farm and
hit the Buffalo Run highway, Route
550, at the Hartsock farm, now own-
ed by Harry Ebbs, just east of Mat.
ternville. .
PENN STATE FURNISHED
BEST FOOTBALL THRILL.
|
| The best amd biggest football
thrill in any game played last Sat-
,urday was furnished by Penn State
in it’s game with Lafayette on Beav-
er field, at State College. The
visitors kicked a field goal ear-
ly in the game which gave
‘them a tally of three points.
: And then, for two hours, the fifteen
thousand spectators watched a rath-
er listless exhibition of the great
collegiate sport. It was a monoto-
nous struggle, back and forth across
the gridiron, neither team showing
any special brilliance, with no
really spectacular plays to awaken
"undue enthusiasm. :
Toward the end of the fourth peri-
od State = seemed to waken up
and managed to work her way down
to within striking distance of the
Lafayette goal. A delayed forward
pass sent French over the goal
line for .a touchdown but it was
not allowed because the pass was
hurled too close to the line of
scrimmage. The ball was awarded to
Lafayette on its own fifteen yard
line. After two tries at bucking
the State line Lafayette punted. It
was the last minute of play, only a
few seconds, in fact. The punt was
taken by French who threw a later-
al pass to Deidrick, waiting at the
side of the field, and the latter
tucked the ball under his arm and
sped down the field like a frighten-
ed deer. His race to the goal be-
ing cut off by the Lafayette backs
the suddenly veered, ran across to
the right side of the field where he
met the State interference and un-
der cover of their protection com-
pleted a sixty yard run over the
goal line and a touchdown. Lafay-
ette protested the legality of the
play but the referee decided in
State’s favor. An attempt to kick
the goal from touchdown failed be-
cause of the frenzy of the mob
which rolled in billows over the |
field, even before the timekeeper’s
whistle announced the end of the
game.

CENTRE COUNTY GIRL ;
WINS DIAMOND MEDAL
At the state convention of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Un-
ion held in * Warren, Pennsylvania,
last week, the Centre county organ-
izations received many honors. The
county was on the honor roll of the
Standard of Excellence and ten lo-
cal unions, Bellefonte, Pleasant
Gap, Centre Hall, State College, Un-
ionville, Blanchard, Philipsburg, Half
Moon, Port. Matilda, Howard, each re-
ceived a cash award of five dollars
for excellence. Julian and Wingate
had also completed the requirements
but failed to get work reported in
time. As the standard exacts many
different lines of work, and each one
includes a gain in membership, the
showing for the county is excellent.
Mrs. Maude H. Bell, of State College,
has served as president during the
year.
Another honor that came to the
county during the convention was
the diamond medal for declamation.
Miss Beulah Harnish, of Wingate,
won the medal in a competition with
an unusually strong group of young
orators. It was Miss Harnish’s first
competition outside of the county.
She won a silver medal some years
ago in a contest staged by the Loy-
al Temperance Legion in Wingate.
The gold medal came to her in a
county convention, and two years la-
ter, a sufficient number of contests
having been held in the county to
furnish a class of gold-medals, she
competed in the county convention
for the grand gold medal which she
won. She is now in line for the
Grand Diamond medal contest, which
is held on alternate years at State
conventions and each year at Nation-
al. Mrs. V. C. Ridge is director of
the department in the county.
Second place was won in the State
essay contest for 7th and 8th grade
students by Gene Ziegler, of State
College. The prize was $8.00. Mrs.
Maude Herrman is county director
of the scientific temperance instruc-
tion department and Mrs. R. M.
Beach presented the plan of this de-
partment recently at the teachers’ in-
situte in Bellefonte.
Mrs. W. A. Broyles, of State Col-
lege, was elected as editor of the
state publication. the W. C. T. U.
Bulletin. The Bulletin has a circu-
lation of about thirty-five thousand
and its issuance is one of the major
details of the organization program.
Those attending from Centre coun-
ty were Mrs. Frank P. Knoll, Miss
Gertrude Adams, Mrs. W. A. Broyles,
Mrs. Fred Henry, of State College;
Mrs. Ida Witmer, Miss Beulah Har-
nish and Mrs. Harnish, of Wingate.
WESTERN UNION EQUIPPED
WITH TELOPRINTERS
The Western Union telegraph of-
fice in Bellefonte and the National
Air Transport at the aviation field
have been equipped with teloprinter
machines. Up to this time, however,
manager Mack Hall, at the Western
Union, continues to hammer out
messages in the old way as he has
not yet become sufficiently familiar
with the new machine to manipu-
late it expertly. So far only one
machine has been installed in the
telegraph office but two more are
to be addded later which will con-
stitute the full equipment, and then
the the old-time key and ticker will
be thrown into the discard.
The machines were installed in the
N.A.T. hangar because the De-
partment of Commerce will discon-
tinue giving that company radio
service today. This does not mean
that the big wireless station is v
be moved from Bellefonte, as suc
is not the case. In the future, how-
ever, it will be used exclusively for
Department of Commerce business.
With the teloprinters the N. A.T.
will be able to have twenty-four
hour service on weather reports
both east and west, and will also be
able to send any messages they
have to go out from here.

SUNDAY MORNING FIRE
DESTROYS OLD BUILDING
An early Sunday morning fire,
which had all the earmarks of a de-
liberate case of arson, completely
destroyed a frame building down
near the old glass works site, and
which belonged to Isaac Underwood
and was used as a storage place for
second hand machinery. Fortu-
dis-
tance from any other buildings and
the only contents were a second
hand traction engine and thresher.
The fire was discovered shortly
after two o'clock by the watchman
lat the P. R. R. engine house, who
promptly turned in an alarm of fire,
but the building was old and dry and
by the time the firemen arrived on
the scene it was parctically burned
down. It is stated on fairly reliable
authority that only a few minutes
previous to the fire a man in a Ford
car, without lights drove up and stop-
ped attherear ofthe building. He
was there only a minute or two when
he left and drovein toward Belle-
fonte. He was hardly out of sight
when the fire was discovered.
——Frank L. Murphy, general
manager of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Gas company, was in Millers-
burg, last week, in’ the interest of
‘securing a franchise to erect a gas
plant there of sufficient capacity to
supply Millersburg, Halifax, Liver-
Newport and Millerstown.

plant similar to the one erected at
Axe Mann and now supplying an
excellent quality of gas to residents
of Bellefonte, State College and in-
termediate points, will be built.
