Albemarle, June 24. —The quiet little town of Oakboro, near here, was terrorized today when four men. all highly intoxicated, drove into the center of the business district and proceeded to pitch a free-for-all fight in the street. « The fighting was severe and last ed long, and bystanders fearing the Oakboro policeman could not he able to handle the situation. tele phoned Sheriff Furr here, saying that he and his deputies were needed there, that the little town was in distress. Officers hurried to Oakboro but before they reached there the town’s policeman had quelled the battle with the arrest of two men who said they were Bill Layton and Doc Ran som. of Concord. The other two, said to be Bill MeGuirt and Tom Ransom, also of 'Concord, made their escape. The two men taken into custody were badly beaten, reports from Oak boro describing Layton as “skinned up x >in head to foot.” They were bi'ought here by Sheriff Furs and were placed in jail, but not until Ransom created much excitement by breaking away from the officers at the prison door and dashing dawn the street. Officers and civilians joined in the chase that continued until the fugitive was overtaken and captured near the Tally Brunson hospital. He and Layton were in prison here to night, pending preliminary hearings. In the meanwhile Sheriff Furr and his deputies are continuing to scour Stanly county for MeGuirt and Tom Ransom.

' ; THJ CONCORD TIMES EXCITING GAME IS ] TAKEN BY KENDALL MILLS TEAM, 7 TO 6 Mason’s Long Home Run Gives Visitors Thrilling Victory.—Hoard and Har ry Watts Hitj Homers. BY RADIO KING Mason’s homerxin over the left cen ter barrier in the eighth enabled the * Kendall Mills team to defeat Concord, ‘ 7 to 6, at Gibson park Thursday as- > terpoon. It was the eleventh con secutive victory of the current season 1 for -the experienced visitors. For three innings prior to the; 1 eighth the contest ran nip and tuck, j j Lindy . Lewellyn’s Weavers coming ' from behind twice to deadlock the 1 score but only to drop back as the ! Paw Creek crew continued rapping successfully the offerings of Lefty Morris. The Concord moundsman was wild at times, and this aided the 1 Kendall club. Lindy Lou’s team fought desperate- , ly in the ninth to tie the count, a single and two sacrifice wallops get ting a man about to third where he , was doomed to die as the Kendall club pulled in the slack and tightened be hind the zipping shots of George (Lef ty) Smith, former hurler of the St. Petersburg club of the Florida State loop. Smithy’s wrong-sided flings did not give the Weavers scarcely a chance to breathe until the fifth stanza. Harry Watt, the dependable Con cord backstop, boosted the stock of his team in the fifth when he put the wood squarely on one of Smithy’s sizzling curves for a homerun over the leftfield fence. Ahead of Watt were two other Concord players who crossed the rubber with the help of the circuit wallop. This clout accounted for the first tallies of the locals and knotted the score three all. The tables in the following two cantos seemed to turn to the favor of the Weavers only to shift again to the visitors in she eighth when Mas on’s mighty wallop was registered. With the score three all at the be-, ginning of the-sixth, Greason. Outen and Marvin Watt parked singles, the former two trotting home to increage the Weaver score to 5, Kendall 3. When the game reached this inter val it began to rain slightly—sprinkle, in other words—and then in the east ern skies appeared a rainbow. It was an otnen of good luck for the visitors as they tied the Concord score in this frame. Two bases on balls, a passed ball, n double, a triple and a single accounted for the three scores. The rainbow was beginning to fade as Mason lifted one of the fast shots of Morris over the fence, and the spoils belonged to Kendall Mills. It was a heart-breaker to lose—that ball game. It was an uphill fight all the way for Eindy’s youngsters. The cash customers went wild with en thusiasm when Harry Watt plastered one over the fence for a homer and to score ahead of him two others — Marvin Watt and Miller. In fact they were so overjoyed that there was a silver offering for this young King of Swat. The outbreak of Lou’s men could not be. stemmed in • the following in ning. but Kendall emerged to the front in the seventh. The score stood 6 to 5 in their favor. Hoard, the flashiest infielder in amateur ball in this state, parked a homer for his team. Again the stands shook under its burden of roaring humanity and a silver offering was suggested for Hoard. He got it, too. The Kendall hurler was battered rather roughly but he weathered the storm very well after his helpers had lambasted the Concord pitcher rather ruthlessly. Lefty Smith yielded an even dozen blows, two of which were home runs, while Morris, of Concord, was touched for nine hits, two of which were home runs also. Morris gave up two triples also. Despite | the superior hitting registered off him Smithy was perfect in the pinches and had better control than Mr. Mor ris. 1 Heavner socked the apple over the fence in the fifth inning to give Ken dall its third score. The visitors scored in the first and third frames also. An infield hit by Heavner and a triple by Johnson accounted a score in the first, while two errors allowed Johnson to tally in the third cantoy.

By RADIO KING. Concord eked out a 9 to 8 victory over Gastonia at Gibson park Thurs day afternoon, scoring the winning run in the hair-raising ninth. Concord’s bright visions of victory almost faded away in blusterous ninth when a storm of Weaver errors linked with Comber hits enabled Gastonia to knot the score, 8 all. When the ninth began Concord was leading by a three tally margin. But the excitement was climaxed in a Weaver victory in the last section of this frame when Bob Morris counted the winning score on Herman Watt’s sizzling single to left field. The thrilling game galloped along at a steady pace, in fact almost too slow, and was quite a strain on local fans who are suffering with heart trouble. Over two hours were re quired to play it, and a dying June sun unrelentingly sent its blistering rays down to give the spectators a perspiring good-time. Wound into the fray was lots of strategy. That accounted for the flock of Pitchers. Comber manager, sent to the mound in effort to halt the driving of the Weaver batsmen. Three new hurlers were trotted to the hillock by Gastonia in the last three and a half innings. None w'ere effective to any great extent and Lindy Lewellyn’s boys were able to crash through to success. When right-handed Weaver batsmen walked to the home plate in the last bracket of frames the Comber manager ejected the right-hander twirling for a southpaw, and visa versa. Gastonia, however, ran out of pitchers and the shortstop was asked to come over to the mound and help out. The offerings of * the' shortstop were whacked fre quently and victory was snatched from his arms in the ninth. Gastonia had the following parade of pitchers: Jenkins, Withers, Hoyle and Porter. The former pitched a splendid brand of ball until the sixth came around. He weakened at this juncture and before manager Fred Morris could call Hoyle to the mound, Concord had tallied two more scores to come in with the one run Hiii to come within one run of knotting up things with the visitors. Hoyle did not last long. He was touched too often for bingles, and Concord deadlocked the score in the seventh, 5 all. Withers came to han dle the situation where Hoyle quit. And, Withers withered under the pounding of the Weavers and he was routed to the dug-out and Porter shoved upon the hill. While all these changes were taking place Concord pushed three markers across the plate to take the lead, 8 to 5. Then the storm of errors blotted for a time the hopes of a Weaver win. Chris Haury, who had been hurling a splendid game for Lindy’s gang, was given poor support in the ninth, and Gastonia managed to rush three runs, through the loose fielding to glue the score again, 8 all. Porter’s wildness and a bobble by a niate and a single by Herman Watts gave Concord its winning run. Bob Morris, Richmond southpaw, rushed into the pitching role in the ninth, relieving Haury. He retired the side without any trouble, Lewellyn taking Harrill’s easy grounder, while Parnell, the bard-hicting Gastonia star, struck out. Chris Haury yielded ten hits to the Combers, but he kept them widely separated and would have caused lit tle damage but for the slack fielding of his mates. It was truly an off-day with Concord's infield. The boys sim ply couldn’t get going right. However, all turned out in favor of .Cindy’s crew. Concord smashed out thirteen hits off the four hurlers, including home runs by Harry Daugherty and Cindy Lou. Daughterty and Outen had a big day with the willow, each slapping the “rock" for three hits in’ five and four times at the 'bat, respectively. Haury collected two safe wallops in three visits to the plate. Casey Morris, Gastonia catcher and brother of the manager, garnered three hits in five trips to the plate. The Weavers are playing this after noon in Gastonia. Either Morris or Newbury will hurl for the locals, it was said this morning by Manager \je welly n.

Just the type of home the young married couple pictures is the model home at Jackson park—not too pre tentious yet comfortable, beautiful and extremely modern. It is out-j standing as a model of the better rural homes of the present day, a work of splendid merit to those in dividuals who made it possible, and worthy of inspection by every Cabar rus citizen. The model home —five rooms with bath —was built snd furnished on the budget plan. The building cost $3,- 200 and required furniture, and other household essentials, valued at ap proximately SI,OOO, to make it the •‘complete home.” In one sense it might be described as the “inexpen- • sive” home, comparing the figures of its cost with new homes where econ omy is not employed so extensively. Although the word “inexpensive” is used that is not intended to convey the impression that the furnishings are not elaborate. Rather the house or bungalow is most magnificently fur- 1 nished and shows clearly how nicely a home might be made when the funds are wisely expended. There is noth ing lacking in the household effects that is needed or one thing which is j not needed. No home is perfect, it has been said, but this model home comes near the mark. Value of Co-operation. The model home illustrates the value of co-operation. What women can do when the men help in build ing homes is clearly exemplified here. The Better Home movement in Ca barrus county is sponsored by the County Home Demonstration Council and under the direction of Miss Ophelia Barker, demonstration agent, of this county. This organization with the help of business establishments of Concord and Mount Pleasant built and fur nished the model home at Jackson park, above five miles from the city on the Charlotte-Concord highway. The business establishments co-operat ing with the ladies include: E. L. Morrison, builder of the home; H. B. Wilkinson Furniture Co., Yorke & Wadsworth Co., Bell-Harris Furni ture Co., Kidd-Frix Co., Peoples Fur niture Co., Concord Furniture Co., Efird’s Department Store, J. C. Pen ney Co., McClellan’s, M. R. Osteen, electrical work; S. C. Kluttz, Mt. Pleasant furniture manufacturer. The furnishing committee includes the following women: Mrs. Ed. Ervin, chairman; Mrs. W. H. Hagler, Mrs. Frank Morris, Mrs. E. Myers, Miss Rebecca Castor, Miss Frances Castor, Mrs. W. A. Foil. Mrs. Harry Moose, Ml#g Mary Harril. Mrs: John Mor ris, -Mrs. Pink Morrison and others. Living Room. The living room is beautifully fur nished with a three-piece fibre suite, a piano, book case, two small tables, and a floor lamp. Upon the hardwood flood is a handsomely designed rug. All of these blend into the color scheme of blue and brown, and green and orange. The living room opens into the dining room with its attrac tively designed nine-piece suit. The rug matches that on the living room floor. Just to the rear of the dining room is the kitchen which is thoroughly equipped, including a Florence oil stove and water heater, and all nec essary cooking utensils and other kitchen furniture. Opening into a small back porch is the door at the left. Girl’s Bedroom. » Entrance to the girl’s bedroom may be made from the living room or the dining room. By the latter one has to enter the family bedroof to reach the girl’s bedroom. The furniture in this bedroom was made by Mr. Kluttz at Mt. Pleasant, with the ex ception of the iron bed. This furni ture as well as the bed was painted by club girls and attractively deco rated. The principal color scheme in this room is .blue.
