Then came the task of finding a heel that would match the print. At first thought, it would appear to be quite a task But Troopers Conn and Glenn Dafoe didn't find it too difficult. They learned that three or four boys, all of whom live within a few miles of the golf club, were keeping company regularly. This proved to be the "break" in the case. The heel of the shoes of one of the boys matched the print in the cast.

Confronted with that evidence, the boy confessed and implicated the others. They admitted the golf club burglary and six others. Thus, such a discovery through careful observation resulted in clearing up seven burglaries. Incidentally, it may also result in the redemption of the four teen-aged boys. H3d they not been stopped now, their careers of crime might have continued into more Forestville Mr.

Judge Des Jardins remarked that his father was greatly concerned about the future when he left Bad Axe where he was earning $15 a week. The Judge added that his father hated to give up such a good job with a family of nine to embark on his new enterprise in Lapeer.

And $15 a week in 1907 was a good wage, he said. Mr. Des Jardins fears proved groundless as his business in Lapeer proved so successful that he was able to send his nine children through college. WOMEN'S CLUBS Study Radio Skits Armada. Oct.

He said he made as much 30 cents a day, big money then for a 11-year-old boy. Would a 11 -year-old boy today work all day for 30 cents? What do you think? Nor should they be expected to do it. There's a lot of difference between 30 cents in 1907 and 1948.

TO THOSE of us, who knew and loved Billy Phelps, it seems a happy choice by the United States Maritime Commission to give his name to a Libelry ship. 1 think he would prefer to have his name borne by a "tramp steamer' one that sails wherever cargoes are available rather than over a set course, voyage after voyage.

McHaJe said a farm system of a major league club does not grow beans, tomatoes or beets but rather seeks to develop players for the parent club. He did asknowledge "there has been some corn this season at Briggs Stadium but we expect to do better next year." Jack Coulter, one time star cut-fielder for Oweniale and now secretary of the Detroit Federation of Umpires, accompanied Sayres and McHale to Port Austin.
