Jury Finds Oelwein Driver Guilty of Reckless Driving A case in Fayette district court which occupied four days'-time was of considerable interest itf this vicinity.

It involved C. C. Becker of Oelwein, charged with reckless driving. Trial of the case was started a year ago but County Attorney M. M.

Cooney became ill and was unable to resume his duties for some time, resulting in a mistrial. The case went to the jury, composed of five women and seven men, Friday afternoon and they returned a verdict of guilty in 10 minutes. This is reported to have broken, all speed records for verdicts in Fayette county. This case has its the fall of 1931 when Becker and two companions, driving east on No. 10, ran into the rear of a load of corn in October, 1931, injuring a man by the name of Kane and injuring a team of horses so that they had to be killed.

Becker was also injured in the mix-up so that he was confined in the Oelwein hospital for a time. Attention, Californians, Spend the Winter in Iowa!

The site will be cleared as rapidly as possible.

Use of picks was necessary to break up the ice which had formed as the result of pouring so much water into the smouldering ruins, Strange to say, as the rubbish was removed it was found that the floor of the building had scarcely been damaged at the rear where fire was the worst. CORN HOG SIGN UP PROCEEDS SLOWLY Less Than Half in Sumner and Dayton Townships Have 1 Signed to Date Sumner, Leroy and Dayton townships have 60 signers each on'the corn and hog contracts, according to a careful check made. by D. D. Offringa Monday.

These figures represent a high percentage for Leroy township, but far less than half for Sumner and Dayton townships, according to the number of farms listed in the Bremer county atlas. There are 2,021 the county, it is said, and to.date 870 farmers have signed contracts'. However, the county atlas shows there are only 1,775 farmers in the county. Maxfield township had another signup day on Saturday, Feb. 10, at which time all those who had not signed up previously were invited to be present either to sign up or to complete arrangements with the committee.

According to word received from Franklin township the committee in charge expects to have the clean up campaign completed not later than Friday and possibly as early as Thursday, Feb. 16. This means that every farmer will have signed a contract or the necessary information will have been furnished or secured on the work sheet of every corn-hog grower in the township. Jackson township met at the high school, Polk township, at the Horton school and Warren township at school districts 4, 5 and 6, for one more sign-up day on Wednesday, Feb. 14.

Frederika township had another sign-up day on Monday, Feb. 12, and Jefferson township was planning another sign-up day at the City hall at Denver on Tuesday, Feb. 13. All the remaining townships will either have another sign-up day or the committee members are planning gn seeing all farmers in regard to signing the contract or filling out the work sheet.

FIRST HATCH OFF MONDAY The first hatch of the season at Wescott Winks hatchery was taken off Monday, consisting of about 1,400 chicks.

Vierth, former publisher of the Sumner Gazette, son of Mr.

and Mrs. Frank Vierth of this place, will be interested to know that he was elected president of the Young Democrats club of Monroe county at AJbia at a meeting held last Wednesday evening. A brief account of the meeting and his picture Meskel Takes over Fayette Co. Clerk's Duties Saturday Contest over the office of clerk of courts in Fayette county came definitely to a close Saturday when Philip Meskel took over the duties of that office from Edgar A. Traeger in accordance with the decision of the state supreme court handed down last month.

The 30 days designated by the high court in which Mr, Traeger might file a petition of rehearing expired Feb. 9. However, shortly after the court rendered its decision, Mr. Traeger indicated that he would not attempt any further action, and both were prepared to make the change, L. L.

Fisk also assumed the duties of deputy to Mr. Meskel on the same date. Miss Josephine Kniel who has served as deputy to Mr. Traeger, has returned to her home at Elgin to remain with her father, her mother having died recently, 'A PRINCE TO ORDER' FIRST SENIOR PLAY Cast of 12 Will Present Comedy Next Wednesday Evening "A Prince to Order" is the title of the first of a series of four plays which will be given by the Senior class of the high school, under the direction of.

29 Fire That V. M. Vierth, former Gazette publisher, but now connected with the Albia papers, had a penchant for fires and fire alarms, is common knowledge to all Gazette readers. Here's what he had to say in "The Village Wiseacre" in the Monroe County News, regarding the Diamond Bros, store fire here Jan. 29: I lived in Sumner fifteen years.

During that period there wasn't a fire that was worth writing home about. I've been away from the community three years and in that time there have been two conflagrations which were worthy of space in the metropolitan dailies of the state. Can it be that despondency over my departure has brought about a carefully organized plan to destroy the old town? Or rather, is it recurrent exhuber- ancc over my absence which finds its only outlet in a celebration around a bonfire which must be something more pretentious than just the common collegiate blaze furnished by old packing boxes. If the folks of Sumner have suddenly decided that they must burn things up, I wish they had reached the decision several years ago. I probably would have died many times of heart failure, however, so perhaps it is just as well that they waited.

Repairs on Syndicate Bldg. (Progressing Satisfactorily With the exception of 'certain repairs on the roof, practically all of the work necessitated by the recent fire in the Syndicate building has been completed, according to a survey made by the Gazette the first of the week. Rewiring and replastering in the Dr. R. H.

Stafford apartment was finished last week and painters have been on the job putting on the finishing touches this week. Damage to the roof, estimated at $30, will be repaired as weather permits. Electricians were still busy Tuesday placing wires in conduit in other parts of the building. Through an oversight, the Gazette last week failed to say that. Drs.

R. H. Stafford and H. F. Turner returned to their offices the day after the fire, damage there being at a minimum, although there was some damage done in the Stafford apartment at the rear of the building.

Redecorating the office roms occupied by Hahle Gannon and Drs. H. M. and H. H.

Karsten was completed Tuesday night, while the rewiring will require another day or two. No plans for protecting the exposed exterior wall on the'west'side have been made as yet. Grundy Co. Republican is Candidate for Congress 0. A.

Ontjes, former state representative from Grundy County, on Wednesday announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination as congressional representative from the Third district. Ontjes seeks the post now held by Rep. A. C. Willford of Waterloo, Democrat.

He served in the Thirty- ninth, Fortieth and Forty-second general assemblies. He was speaker pro tempore in the Fortieth and the Fortieth special sessions. Opponents of Ontjes in the Republican primary, who already have announced their candiddacies are John W. Gwynne of Waterloo and Leo Mak, also of Waterlo.o LOCAL FIVE LOSES TO WAVERLY 25-23 Hetzelmen Lead for Three Quarters but Lack Winning Punch Displaying an offense the like of which has not been seen here for several years, Coach Hetzel's Sumner high school cagers lost a game with Waverly on the local floor Friday night by the narrowest of margins. The final count was 25-23 which the Stephensonmen won in the final minute of a closely fought game.

The Orange and Back stepped right out in front in the first quarter and held the edge all the way, the count standing 18-17 at the end of the third quarter. Minkel led the scoring for Sumner with three sinkers and two free throws. Traeger was next with two baskets and two gratis marks. Platte and Sexton had two each, and the latter a free throw. Although Frisch did not connect with the basket he was the ace player for the home crew.

Waverly considered Traeger so dangerous that they placed two men on him. Zoller had the best basket eye of the county seat boys, with four to his credit. Heist had three, and Nygren two each. Weires didn't make his usual showing on the score book. The box score: Frisch, f.

Sumner Opens with Tough Game in County Tourney What high school basket ball team in Bremer county will upset the dop bucket this week? Fans are placinj their guesses on the outcome of th county tournament which opens Waverly Friday night, continuing through Saturday afternoon and eve ning, To agreat extent it will depend what team is "hot."

The house or representatives Monday of last week passed an appropriation bill of 000,000, extending the CWA to May 1. But the senate is still debating the subject.

Insofar as Sumner is concerned, it appears that the termination of the plan will leave two projects incomplete. One of these is the repainting af the interior of the school house and the other is the water main extension on the "diagonal" street northeast of the Great Western station. Both of these were started when the entire CWA quota here were on 30 hours per week. When this was cut to 15 hours, only six working days were left in which to finish physical impossibility. The, local contingent of 30 men has been putting in hours per day on Wednesday and Thursday of each week since the time allotment was cut in two.

Mayor H. C. Frank informs the Gazette that the water main extension is' not half completed. However, he is hopeful that the necessary legislation will be enacted in the next days. If it isn't, he hasn't any solution for the project which isn't half done.

A. F. Miller, chairman of the purchasing committee of the board of education, states that the repainting project at the school has likewise suffered because the working hours have been cut in two. The interior of the ymnasium and three rooms on the first floor have been painted. When the project was first considered, it was with the understanding that five men were to be the quota.

But when approval was given, provision for only two was made, later a was added and finally last week a fourth joined the crew. The CWA payroll in Bremer county last week amounted to $2,929.13. It is understood that in case an extension is granted, that perhaps a week or more all records to 'Ibe Feb. 15. Whatever is allotted after that date will be through new applications.

Walter Waskow, Buttermaker, Goes to Little German Cry. Walter R. Waskow, who has been the efficient buttemaker at the Farmers creamery in Arlington for several years, presented his resignation to the board of directors effective March says the Arlington News. Mr. Was- cow has accepted a.
