Not new by many years, but the covering is still good; the bladder Is probably worthless, having un dergone the ravages of time and much use. But that ball will recall to the mind of many Ashlanders the time and trouble John went to in his efforts to aid the boys of Ashland, to give them something definite in life to which they could point. Night after night, John would take a group of boys out to the high senool where they would practice basketball. None ever became world beaters as ball players, but this activity kept them from wan dering the streets at night, kept their minds occupied and perhaps made better men of them. John never balked or protested at whatever use his young friends made of him, his time, his posses sions. He was always ready to aid In getting a picnic started, then he probably would see it finished too. He always was ready to take his young ball players to other towns where they would engage in games with other teams. He was always ready to participate in most any activity that the towns people would sponsor. John Rigg is gone; his passing is deeply regretted by all, but he is remembered and honored. The recall movement against Governor Martin is likely to be fruitless, with the exception of razzberries for its sponsors.— Weston Leader.
