HALL SLIPS NEW
WORDS INTO LIST
TO
Society and Clubs
Edited by Eva Nealon
and M'.u Vlrg:nli Fredrick, daugh
ter or Mr. ar.d Mr. D. O. Frederic.
E
Court Hall, champion spelling
leader for the Elks' club, who will
defend his title against the eminent
Gustavus Newbury tomorrow even
ing in the annual spell-down at the
Elks' club, waa today attempting to
place a few words in the list so that
the referee could use them on the
Newbury followers.
Although the allegations were de
nied by the title holder, it was
learned from a reliable source that
included In the words he had
turned In were "hexacoslhedroid"
and "neoimpressionism."
Mr. Hall devoted last evening to
memorizing a group of rules, includ
ing "nouns ending tn y, preceded by
a ccnsonant, from their plural by
adding es and changing y to 1."
Mr. Newbury declared this morn
ing that although his opponent could
probably recite the rule perfectly,
he had no idea which letters were
consonants, and It was doubtful
whether or not Court could tell the
plurals from the singulars.
Court has asked for protection
against Mr. Newbury's skull tap
ping, which he developed while
teaching school in the Griffin Creek
section. Mr. Hall said today that
Gus was in the habit of exercising
such authority, and does not wish
to get thumped for winning the
match again this year.

revtcd against the Jackson County
Bank for a considerable time before

of any bank or banking Institution
shall, upon conviction, be sentenced
to not less than one year tn the
county jail and fined not less than
I $1000 nor more than fl000." Both
