The writ directed to Clayton King, warden of the Illinois State Farm, Vandalia, calls for Crowell's appearance in court Dec.

11, at 10 a.m. Crowell was sentenced early in October to two concurrent sentences of six months each on charges of driving while intoxicated and driving without a valid driver's license, according to records in the sheriff's office. Shipment of Grain Sets River Record Increase in grain shipments contributed to a record for the number of southbound barges on the Mississippi River last week, the Army Corps of Engineers at Rock Island reported today. Downbound traffic through Lock 15 at Rock Island totaled 33 towboats with 204 barges loaded with 139,200 tons of grain and 6,700 tons of miscellaneous products. The previous downbound grain record was 123,750 tons, set just the week before, the engineers reported.

The record grain shipments were attributed mostly to the short harvest period which resulted in jamming area elevators and in some cases dumping it on the ground. Northbound commercial traffic on the Mississippi for the week ending Dec. 2 totaled 24 towboats with 84 barges loaded with 109,250 tons of petroleuin products and 15,800 tons of miscellaneous cargo. Traffic last week included three towboats making their first appearances in the Rock Island District, which extends between Saverton, and Guttenberg, Iowa. The Huffman, headed for Red Wing, with empty grain barges, is 125 feet long, 35 feet wide and has 2,400 horsepower with triple propellers.

The Mimmi, headed north for Dubuque with 2,500 tons of salt, is 96 feet long, 25 feet wide and has 1,400 horsepower. The third vessel was the Atchison, pushing five empty grain barges to Meeker's Landing across the river from Oquawka, with 1,530 horsepower. It is 118 feet long and 28 feet wide. Crossing- (Continued from Page 3) on Dayton," Herring advised. He did not specify the protective measures.

The traffic count shows that about 1,190 cars on Dayton are stopped daily at the intersection to make way for an average of 530 cars on Academy Street, Herring said. This shows that a stop sign is needed at Academy, not at Dayton, he added. McClurg retorted that he saw no gain by taking the sign from Dayton Street. "It will only cause confusion among children now walking on Dayton Street," he said. Aldermen's opinions on the issue varied.

Some favored retention of the present stop sign and others did not. At least two aldermen were against reducing the speed limit from 30 to 20 mph, as requested by the safety council. Aid. Donald Stoffel (1st Ward) suggested that the proposal to retain the stop sign at Dayton Street be introduced as an ordinance at a future City Council meeting. "This way we can either accept or reject it," he said.

Meanwhile the now-controversial sign remains on Dayton Street with no ordinance backing it. "You could not prosecute anyone for running the stop sign," noted City Atty. John Hanlon. Pair Accused of Robbery Win Continuance James Edward Geary, 21, of Wyoming and Charles David Jacobs, 19, of Kewanee, two of three defendants named in a grand jury indictment on a robbery charge were in Knox County Circuit Court Monday. Geary was brought here from the Stark County jail in Toulon, from which he escaped late the night o' Oct.

29 or the morning of Oct. 30, and was apprehended in Missouri. Jacobs was brought here from the Putnam County jail at Hennepin, where he was being held on another charge. Judge Keith E. Scott continued their case, and the two others.

The judge granted a request by a Kewanee attorney to withdraw as Geary's attorney and then named William H. Henning, public defender, to represent the youth, who previously had been released here on $5,000 bond. As his case was continued, Geary is to be returned to the Stark County jail. Jacobs' attorney was unable to be present Monday. He had been free on a bond in magistrate court, it was reported, and Jack R.

Kirkpatrick, assistant state's attorney, asked that he be required to file bond in circuit court. In lieu of bond, it was stated he will be held in jail here and not returned to Putnam County. Further action in this case is expected Dec. 19. Two defendants, Robert Emmett Welsh, 33, of 141 Virginia charged with aggravated battery and attempted robbery, and Howard Arthur Young, 26, of Maquon RFD, charged with burglary, indicated they wanted to employ counsel and their 1 Top College Stars Picked In Draft CHICAGO (UPI)-The longest National Football League draft meeting in history ground to a finish today after taking 21 hours and 43 minutes to divide rights to what the pro's consider the best 280 college football players.

There were no major surprises in the selections from 9:05 a.m. (CST) Monday when San Francisco picked end Dave Parks of Texas Tech as the No. 1 choice until 6:48 a.m. today when the Chicago Bears chose a future, Dick Niglio of Yale, to wind up the drawn-out proceedings. The 14 teams drafted a total of 76 "futures," players who still have college eligiblity and thus can't be signed by the pro's, but whose matriculating class graduates this year.

With the usual pro gamble on the unknown, too, they dipped into the rosters of 154 colleges, tapping most of them for only one player. Nebraska, landing two No. 1 choices, guard Bob Brown by Philadelphia and tackle Lloyd Voss by Green Bay, was the most lucrative source, furnishing nine players. Notre Dame, despite an unimpressive 2-7 record, was touched for seven players and both Mississippi and Syracuse for six. Five schools furnished five players each, Pittsburgh, Iowa, Michigan State, Georgia and Wichita.

It was believed that the 76 future choices also was a record, since last year the clubs chose only 64, an unusually large number. Church People Are Asked to Take Civic View "This church, as well as the City of Galesburg, has a challenge in the future," declared Rev. Wilmot T. Lippert in the course of a talk before the congregation of Central Congregational Church Sunday morning. The minister commented that the city "stands at the threshold of a greater day." He said the school system demands a new day, and Galesburg's "business and industrial outlook must be brightened, its social understanding requires greater depth." The minister's comments were made in giving a summary of recent voting by Central Church members, which resulted in the decision to remain separate and not to unite, as had been proposed, with the United Church of Christ.

Auction in Bankruptcy Nets $16,500 Nearly 400 items were sold for $16,500 Monday in the bankrupt auction sale of Howe-Anderson Bakery, 79 S. Chambers St. The local firm, in an inventory check, placed a value of $62,000 on its equipment. Leo F. O'Brien, trustee in bankruptcy, said that if the firm had sold out as a going business, more money would have been realized in the sale.

Because the bakery is no longer operating, the costs of moving equipment is expensive, he said. O'Brien said three pieces of equipment, an oven, rack washer and a proof box, received no bids at all. Buyers came from as far as Minneapolis, New York, N.Y., St. Louis, Chicago and Burlington, Iowa, to purchase bakery equipment, trucks and office equipment, he said. Money received in the sale will be distributed by order of priority, O'Brien stated.

Government liens will have to be determined, then general creditors will receive pro rated shares, he explained. The bakery filed a bankruptcy petition in U.S. District Court at Peoria after ceasing operations last September. Colonial Bakery of Peoria has leased the routes from the local firm and is currently using the former bakery building as a merchandise distribution center. O'Brien said that the Peoria firm will eventually leave the building altogether.

The Galesburg firm was founded by Bartlett Howe and L. T. Anderson more than 40 years ago. The bakery was sold 10 years ago to A. W.

Gummerson, E. L. Sundberg and W. M. Stringer.
