‘ Kannapolis, Dec. 17.—Battling
for neighborhood supremacy, Kannap
olis high school and Concord Hi will
take up their warfare tonight at the
Concord high school gymnasium in a'
double barrel program. The local
girls meet the Concord lassies in the
preliminary game at 7:30 and the
Concord boys clash with the Kan
napolis Little Wonders at 8:15
o'clock.
The boys’ classic is one of the old-,
est annual inter-scholastic games in j
this section of the state, the relation
* ship being free from any sort of im
purity.
„ The game tonight should be as
- close as a Scotchman in a thrift cam
paign, judging from the way the teams
stack up ou paper. The Concord lads
are in good fighting trim, according
to Coach Bloomfield, who has devel
oi>ed a scrappy combination from a
- gang of newcomers. Gene Hoover and
Bill ,Mabrey are the only letter men
}>ut the 1 robkies- are showing up just
Us good as these fellows. Its a .bas
ketball axipin that a home club al
ways has a big idvanfhge, beepuse
the players are familiar with the
support cf loyal fans is,a big on'cour
» agement. The first f part of that
clause sounds true enough bat, as for- ,
the loyal support df fans, Kannaiio
lis is planning as large an outpouring
as Concord. Maybe larger, for the.
entire Toweler student body has been
asked to; make the trip.
Tin' Mauldin troupe has been j
working out easy iu preparation for
the struggle. Four victories thus far i
* this season pumps a world of confi
dence into the little brigade, but
Mentor Mauldin has warned them i
against over confidence of victory ;
against Concord.

|er, well-known and prosperous eiti
sen who died Monday morning at his
fhome in North Kannapolis, were held
Wednesday afternoon in the Saint
John’s Reformed Ohurch, at which
the deceased waw a member. The Rev.
L. A. Peeler officiated. A large com
pany of friends and relatives was in
«attendance to pay their last respects
and there were many beautiful floral
1 offerings. All classes of the high
1 school senior body ceased and the stu
dents attended the services singly and
in groups. Touching tributes were
paid to the life and character of Mr.
Archer and there were tender expres
sions of sympathy for the bereaved
ones. Interment was in the Green
lawn Cemetery, China Grove.
| PI LL BOARDS FLOOD TOWN.
j Kannapolis is becoming' lopsided
with pull boards, raffle cards. Every
where one turns he i smet by a “tako
a-chance" agent who is so insistent
one thinks he is in a Jewish conven
tion when he enters, but soon learns
he has not money left to stage an
American picnic.
These cards or boards were intro
duced as ten cent ebanee cards, the
lucky person receiving a neat box of
candy. Soon 25 Cent chances were
presented and accordingly larger
premiums. Now one agent is offering
a diamond ring as a prize and sell
ing Ills goods' at something over one
dollar per chance. A Ford touring
car iu the offing is the latest thing
heard of around here.
Harvey Rae Peeler lias arrived
home from Crnnsauius College to
spend the Christmas holidays with his
parents, Mr..and Mrs. 11. J. Peeler.
