In view of a certain incident which took place last Tuesday night at Kiwanis meeting (on which subject I am unable to elaborate because the party involved issued dire threats if it was publicized) I am forced to the conclusion that the age of chivalry is indeed dead. When a whole roomful of ablebodied men sit by and offer no aid to a lady in distress, but there, with every word, I am jeopardizing the well being of the boss, who was threatened with extinciton should the story be made public. It's not so much that I value his safety; it's the fact that he signs the checks.

Havana's oldest store, namely, Moreland's, is undergoing a new paint job. There's nothing like a fresh coat of paint to build morale. Take for example, if you will, a woman's face.

Summer's nice because people go off on vacations and write cards to the folks back home. I received TWO this week. One is from some cat in Silver Springs, Maryland, inviting me to come up and see him sometime (in true Mae West fashion, no doubt). He promises to show me the sights. The card was signed with a very handsome picture of himself, too.

The other note was from Mrs. Boss, who is vacationing in Birmingham. It reads as follows: "Heap big town, this Birmingham. Just suit your colossal (?) abilities. Wish you were here." The post script reminds me that I'm supposed to be keeping an eye on Mr. Boss for her while she's away. If there are any other wives in town who are contemplating vacations, I will gladly, for a nominal fee, undertake to keep an eye on husbands, and give an accurate account of their activities when the wives return. For another fee, I will check on wives who are vacationing and report to their husbands. For a still larger fee, I will keep my mouth shut about the whole thing.

The attention that has been focused on the activities of the Southern Klan recently caused the boss to be a little upset when he saw me wearing a badge proclaiming my membership in the KKK. He finally got close enough to read the rest of the words, however, and found that the letters stand for "Kat Kolumnists Klub." The membership is strictly exclusive, and needless to say, the president of the organization is THE OFFICE CAT.

The Rappers and the Presbyterians each won two games during the week to remain a close one, two respectively in the league standings.

Thursday in Quincy, Havana pasted the Baptists unmercifully in a 14 hit 17 run win and Monday night were hosts to the Greensboro club in a close 4-2 ball game.

The Presbyterians handed Greensboro a 10-0 defeat in Greensboro last Thursday and won from the Baptists 7-3 in Quincy Monday.

The badly battered Baptists managed to sandwich in a close win Friday night over the TEC (Talquin Electric Cooperative) club, 6-5, which summarizes the week's results.

Havana-Baptists

With 33 times at bat, 14 hits and 6 walks, the Rappers won a lopsided slow game from the Baptists before a slender crowd in Quincy last week. Every man on Bert's team scored a run or two except Thompson who hit safely twice and every player except B. (Billy) Miller and (Jack) Boynton got one or more hits. Dan Miller led with an almost perfect four hits for five trips, his last a home run in the bottom of the seventh.

The Baptists collected six runs, enought to win an ordinary ball game, off three hits, a couple of Rapper errors and four free trips issued by (Harold) Bert, Jr., but that was only about one third of the runs they needed.

Havana-Greensboro

In a close, fast ball game here Monday that saw the Havana batters jump on Clark for an early 3-1 lead in the first inning, Bert, Jr., hurled his best game of the year so far striking out 14 Greensboro batters and just missing a no hitter by allowing one hit, a single by C. Green in the first inning.

A walk and a hit in the first gave Smith's boys one run and three passes and a wild pitch gave them their second tally in the 5th.

Butler started the three run rally in the first with one out with a single. D. Miller made the second out and then the fireworks started with singles by J. Bert, Shelfer and H. R. Bert in sucession to chase across the three runs.

The only other run for the locals came in the fifth inning on a four base knock by Dan Miller.

Clark allowed seven hits, struck out one and walked two for the Greensboro team.

After a bad case of stage fright and first inning jitters last night which allowed the Tallahassee Music Club to score three runs, the Rappers settled down to errorless ball, but the damage had been done, they lost 3-1.

Three passes, three errors and one hit accounted for all of the Tally club's runs in the bottom of the first.

(Harold) Bert, Jr., struck out 14 batters, issued six passes and allowed only two hits. Keaton for the Music Club fanned five, passed three and scattered four hits.

One man was killed and several injured in a car-bus crash which demolished the automobile and overturned the bus, seven miles South of Havana on highway 27, last Sunday afternoon about four o'clock. The accident occurred at the Leon end of the Ochlockonee bridge and drew an estimated crowd of 2500 Sunday drivers and sightseers, according to the highway patrolemen who investigated the crash.

Henry Cogman, negro of Havana, and driver of the car, a new Mercury, died early Monday morning in Campbell's Hospital in Tallahassee from injuries received in the wreck. He never regained consciousness following the accident, hospital authorities said.

Three white person, passengers on the bus, received injuries in the crash. Two of the injured white passengers were taken to Tallahassee hospital.

They were Mrs. Ella Jane Friddle of Richmond, Va., and George Harrley, state motor vehicle commission worker of Tallahassee. Both have been released.

A third passenger, Miss Ida Dollar of Quincy, was under observation in Gadsden hospital, for injuries which hospital authorities described today as "not too serious."

Car Hits Bridge

Cpl. Tom Aaron, highway patrolman who handled the investigation, said witnesses gave this version of the crash.

Cogman, traveling west toward Havana, apparently lost control of the automobile as he came over a small hill leading toward the Ochlockonee river bridge.

The auto careened off several guard rail posts and struck the bridge buttress, then spun around and went squarely into the path of the eastbound bus.

Aaron said the impact tossed the auto back off the bridge buttress, then spun around and went squarely into the path of the eastbound bus.

Aaron said the impact tossed the auto back off the bridge and folded the right front fender and bumper of the big bus unto the wheel, causing Driver James E. Chapman, of Tallahassee, to lose control.

Bus Skids Over

The bus skidded off the highway and overturned on a bank on the lefthand side with the front up toward the top of the bank.

The bus was bound from Birmingham and Montgomery, Ala., and was traveling about 55 miles per hour, Chapman said.

The auto was owned by Bob Ellinor of Havana, Ford Tractor dealer here. Cogman was the only occupant at the time of the crash.

damage to the bus was estimated between four and five thousand dollars according to officials of the company.

Horace Diggs, Greensboro negro, was charged before a coroners jury Monday with second degree murder and the case bound over for the next term of Circuit Court. His bond was set at $2500.

Witnesses testified that Diggs struck Fannie Madry, a negro woman, in the head and the side knocking her down. She never regained consciousness after the blows.

The altercation between the two occurred about 10:30 P. M. last Saturday at Madry's home about one and a half miles out of Greensboro on the Chattahoochee road. According to witnesses this was not the first time Diggs had beaten the woman.

Held For Circuit Court

Two Quincy negros were bound over to Circuit Court last Monday, one J. D. Mosely was charged with forgery and the other, Otho Brown with the theft of an automobile.

Mosely was also tried on a drunkeness charge before County Judge Frank Thrower and sentenced to 60 days on the gang.

Brown who was out on $750 bond nad had been previously charged with forgery will be tried on both counts before the next Circuit Court.

A sixty nine car procession of Southern Klansmen, costumed but without masks, passed through Havana last Saturday night shortly before 11 o'clock, enroute from Quincy to Tallahassee.

The parade of some 200 to 250 persons followed a fish fry and initiation of new members held near Greensboro earlier in the evening, according to Bill Hendrix, of Tallahassee, agent of the organization.

The caravan of cars passing through the streets in an orderly fashion, attracted little attention here. Reports from Tallahassee indicated that a similar lack of concern was shown there, both by the few spectators who witnessed the parade and by the Klansmen themselves. None of the latter were masked, and only a few wore dark glasses or made attempts to hide their faces, witnesses said.

Tallahassee police furnished an escort through the city for the caravan, which was led by a vehicle bearing a lighted cross.

Box score on the cars by counties gave Florida 48, Georgia 19 and Alabama 2. Gadsden county led with 21, Leon had 14, Walulla 3, Duval 2, Dade county 1, and six from scattered counties.

The parade passed on through Tallahassee to the south and presumably broke up or wound back to the recently built headquarters some 15 miles west of Tallahassee.
