Reek is being hauled to the six blocks which did not have a reek base completed. The entire base will pro.b~bly not be put on tbose streets but enough so that they can be used throughout the winter. One car of asphalt for this job arrived in Mount Vernon last week and was spotted on the spur track Burt Neal & Sons Win On Cattle And Corn At International Burr Nell, well known local Shorthorn cattle breeder, return- ed he,me Tuesday night from Chi- cago, Ill where he saw four of his purebred steers place in the In- ternational IAve Stock show.

The locals were slow getting started, being behind 6 to 0 at the end of the first quarter, but pulled out ahead and lead 15 to 7 at the half inter- mission. The team lacks good re- serve material at the present, but with more practice sessions some of the juniors of last year's squad might improve sufficiently to take over in the pinches, or some of the so.pbomores may come through. The junior high boys beat Lis- bon's junior high in a preliminary game 35 to 10. John Wolfe proved to have an eye for the .basket as he slipped in seven field goals and a free throw'. Friday evening, Dec. 6, Coach Harold Fisher will take the first and second basketball teams to West Branch for a game.

WORK IS RESUMED ON STORM SEWER Work was resumed last week on the WPA Storm sewer project in Mount Vernon with an average of 18 ,men working. It is hoped that the sewer can be completed before work is suspended. Part of the men have been work- ed on a 15-inch line down the alley back of Mrs. Emma Stein- brenners which will connect with the main 24-inch lines in the Col- ton lots. A second line of 24 inch tile will be laid from First Avenue east across the Brown pasture paralleling a line of similar size tile laid some ten years ago. Tbe remainder of the men have been connecting catch basins on the south end of Fifth, Fourth and Third avenues south to a storm sewer which will drain along south Fourth street. Approximate cost of the entire project will be $10,000 of which the Town will pay 3,500 and WPA l grants will cover $6,500.
