The elder Du Pont Is a stockholder In the various Iron and chemical Industries of the country which hare made the family name powerful over the world. He is a director of the Missouri-Kansas Pipe Line company, which now employs his son. ' Just Out of Oxford.

He began work as auy other employee of the pipe line company and Is being treated like his fellow men. Before going to Oxford he was graduated from Princeton. Today, wearing oily and grimy overalls, he is taking the hard knocks of the gas production game. The twenty-fewr-year-old youth hesitated when asked something about himself. "I do cot see what there would be Interesting about a person who has so small a part in the world as I. It would not be proper for me to expect anything because of my family name, as I have te earn through merit that which comes to me." f Dark-haired, clear-eyed and quiet In • demeanor is the newest worker in the gas fields. He didn't want to talk about himself, but repeated questioning brought this out: Follows Brothers' Stefftb "Why shouldn't I work in the gas fields? My two older brothers worked in the rayon mills after completing college. My younger brother, still in college, will do much the same as the rest of us.

He does not go out at nights nnd Is prompt to work. Woodstock To Be First Opponent of McCracken Men--Close Battle Is Expected The recently announced cage schedule for the 1930-31 season of the McHenry Community High School reveals the fact that the boys are in for a busy season. McCracken has filled the schedule to * breaking point in order that McHenry fans may have the opportunity oi seeing their lads in action at home at frequent intervals. Most of the games are to be played with fellow members of the McHenry County League and the competition in this group should add to the attraction. St. Mary's of Woodstock and the Delavan School for $eaf have also been carded and the old rivalry between these schools and the locals both on the court and the CHAKGES IN BASKETBALL RULES EXPLAINED FULL? A player fouled in the act of shooting will be awarded only one freethrow if he makes the basket- In the event the foul prevents a score, twe free-throw* will be awarded as in the past. Failing to remain in the jump circle until the ball is tapped will constitute a technical foul, except when the ball is tapped into the basket, in which case the free-throw will be void. "1 On a jump ball the ball may be^ tapped not more than twice by either player. 4 In case of missed free-throws th§ ball will remain in play instead oi being returned to center. This rule applies to free-throws in case the basa* ket is made. " When time is taken out for freethrows, the watch will be restarted w hen the ball leaves the hands of the gridiron, making one believe that some rousing games will be in progress. j There is also some talk of reviving the old custom of an Alumni-High School game, limiting the Alumni to players graduating within the past two or three years to even matters a trifle. This game, should it go through, will most likely be used to gather funds for charity to relieve needy families in this locality should the occasion demand. The following schedule may be of interest to local fans: Dec. 5--Woodstock at Woodstock- Dec. 12--Harvard at Harvard. Dec. 19--Hebron at McHenry. Dec. 23--Delavan at McHenry.
