COMEDY OF ERRORS GIVES LIONS WIN OVER ROTARIANS The Rotary club wheel was flat- tened last night by the Lions club by the score of 10 to 9 to give the Lions the win in the wildly played game that put the Salvation Army drive for funds into high gear. High point of the first inning was Henry Harmon making the catch in a salmon landing net to retire the Lions. All during the inning, Jot Werner, pitcher for the Lions, pee. ad off layer after layer of clothing 0 reveal red flannels. Pete Wood of the Lions was per haps the best comedian of the zame. His act between first anc ccond mid-way through the game created confusion. Masking tht throw with his wig, he safely go! to second. Previously he had caugh the ball and batted it safely to cen- terfield. Wood then reversed the field and made second via third. ‘The best costumes in last night’ game saw a riot of colors and get- ups. George Apostol wore a colored mop for a wig, stuffed sweater, and false grass skirt over yellow trunks Pete Wood was dressed as Little Lord Fauntleroy in shorts and with splayed upper front teeth. A second aid kit in a trunk was manned complete with tire pumps for air refills and one crutch. O. R Cleveland acted as cheer leader.

Forty runners broke away from Municipal Stadium in the Annual Knights of Columbus Jaunt and at the first marker two men Rad spurted well out front. As they started to make a turn on their course, two boys standing by the roadside yelled: “Hey, that's the wrong way.” The runners pulled up for a sec- ond and then took off in the direc- tion the boys pointed. Minutes later the two were smack up against a dead end street and minutes after that the whole field was pulling up behind and all was confusion. It was so bad that officials said the race would be run over again next Sunday. What about the two boys?

YOUR LIFE INSURANCE . . . Very often I am asked about policies which provide funds for thecollege education of chil- dray AN Such policies are usually tak- en out'on the life of the father. If you had an Educational Endowment policy, the New York Life would pay a guar- anteed amount, if you live, on a specified date, when your child is, say, 18. Or, if you do not live to the specified date, pre- mium payments would cease at your death but the Company would pay the full face amount on the same specified date. ‘Thus, whether you live or mot, funds would be ready for col- lege expenses. Perhaps you feel you cannot afford to pay the premium rate for the Educational Endow- ment. You might take some other policy with a lower pre- mium rate which, with a Spec- 1a] Settlement agreement, would provide for payments (in case of your prior death) beginning at a specified date when your child is, say, 18. And if you live, the cash value of the policy might, if necessary,, be used fo pay at least part of the expenses. You can select the plan best suited to your individual re- quirements. I will be glad to give you full details.
