One of Lake Placid'* Pioneers Passes Away of Acute Heart TroaWe on January 17—Com- munity Suffer* Great Loss Another of Lake Placid's pion- eers, a man who by his sterling character, marked ability, and in- defatigable energy contributed j greatly toward making our com- munity what it is today, has passed into the Great Beyond. Edwin W. Kennedy, one of Lake Placid's best beloved citizens, died in Orlando, Florida, on Sunday, Januarv 17, at 6:30 a. m. Acute heart trouble was the immediate cause of his death, Mr. Kennedy's death came as a great shock to his many friends and members of his family here, for while he had not been in the best of health for the past year, it was hoped that he would be spared for a long time to come. He was 78 years old. The past three winters Mr. Kennedy spent in Florida. Edwin W. Kennedy was born in Wilmington on December 25, 1847, the son of James and Eliza Par- rish Kennedy. For a number of years he worked in Lake Placid be- fore making it his permanent home. In 1870 his parents moved here and occupied the Parkhurst Farm near the Ware bridge.

Han.- t-ara Hcien pp w ond by the Lake Placid Club. Mr. Kennedy- was a carpenter by trade. He was also an expert guide whose ser- vices were in constant demand. Later he became outside manager for the Lake Placid Club and re- mained in that position for several years. His first business venture was a partnership with the hite George Chellis tinder the firm name of Kennedy & Chellis, contractors and builders. Upon the death of Mr. Chellis, Mr. Kennedy took over the business. Many of the fine cottages and camps in and around Lake Placid are a credit to his ex- cellent workmanship and ability as a designer. Later he engaged in the hard- ware business. He retired from active participation in the business of Edwin Kennedy & Sons in 1915, but always maintained a watchful interest in the affairs TWO RECORDS ARE BROKEN IN LOCAL SKATING TRIALS Scl>ooft>oys Perform in Convincing Fashion—Parody and Farrefl Cot Records—To Select Teas for State Meet Under ideal ice and weather con- ditions and with an interested crowd in attendance, the school elimination speed skating trials on Mirror Lake rink were run off last Saturday. This was the first of the elimination trials for the com- ing state championships at Sara- toga in February. The meet was marked by the lowering of two schoolboy records. Carl Parody, speedy blade star of the local team, skated the 220- yard race in the record time of 19 and one-fifth seconds—one and one-fifth seconds below his own state record made in 1924 at Lake Plid Mr. Kennedy was an ardent Democrat and maintained a con- stant and an active interest in polities. He served as justice of the peace for a number of years before the village of Lake Placid was incorporated. On December 25, 1877, he mar- ried Emma R. Summers of Keene. Following their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy lived at what was known as Seven Gabies at the lake Placid Club where all their chil- dren were born. When the young couple first occupied the house, what is now the extensive Club property was largely given over to farming. Mr. Kennedy is survived by his widow and four children, all of whom make their homes in Lake Placid. The children are a daugh- ter, Effie Myrtle, and three sons, Walter Edwin, Rollie James, and Hugh Annibal. Seven grandchil- dren also survive: Edwin, Orville, and Robert, sons of Wnlter Ken- nedy of Lake Placid; Marion and James, daughter end son of Rollie Kennedy; and Maxwell and Alice, son and daughter of Hugh Ken- nedy. Mr. Kennedy leaves two brothers and two sisters: C. W. ^Kennedy of Lake Placid; Melvin Kennedy of Indianapolis, Ind.: Mrs. %. 8. Parichurst of Kasson, Minn.; and Mrs. Paulina Raycock of Hol- lywood, Calif. Many other rela- :fives also survive in Lake Placid and the West. • Mr. Kennedy was senior warden ojf the Episcopal Church and was one of its oldest and most faith- ful members. He had served as vestryman ever since the organiza- tion of the parish. He was an ac- tive Masfon and was *a charter member of Lake Placid Lodge No. 834 F. and A.M. Funeral services will be held on Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock at tiie Episcopal Church. The service at the ehurch will be preceded by a short service for the family at Mr. Kennedy's late home at one o'clock, Rev. S. T. Ruck officiating. The Masonic Lodge No. 834 F. and A. M. will attend in a body. The last rites of the lodge will be said at the church and at the grave. Pallbearers will be B. R. Bull, W. E. Feek, J. C. Jubin, Jack Far- -\ \\ * H. Wood, and Fred Placid. Parody and Farrell skated dead heat in the senior three- quarter mile in the record time of 2:20 and four-fifths. This cut eight and four-fifths seconds from the state mark. Unfortunately, neither of these records will re- ceive official recognition as state marks must be made in the final interscholastic meets. Dutton made a good showing in Saturday's races, placing second to Parody in the quarter mile and winning third place in the 220. Farrell won the half and skated a defed heat with Parody |n the three-quarter mile. James Barry took three first places in the junior events, 10- year old class. F. Tobin won three in the 12-year old, and D. Tobin brought in three firsts in the 14-year old class. E. Pelkey won the : Dy ^. jtarry; (j. ueorge, second; £>. Frayne, third.

The first half ended 14 to 12 in Placid's favor, and during the re- mainder of the game the two fives were never more than two points apart, the game establishing a record for these parts in the num- ber of times the count was tied. The teamwork of two fast, hard lighting quintets was the outstand- ing feature of the contest, which was marked by close guarding, speedy passwork, and accurate shooting. The game was a splen- did example of this popular sport at its best. Wilson dropped in the winning basket for the Lakers with only | a second or two to play. The whis- tle blew just as the ball nestled in the basket. The game was a thriller from start to finish. One spectator said that he thought he was as tired as any of the players, the nervous strain was so great. The contest brought out a big crowd. A good delegation from Saranac was on hand to root for its favorites. Father Booth of Dannemora handled the game to the entire satisfaction of all con- cerned.

Lyons rg Ladocum McCutcheon lg Dougnau i APPLICATIONS CONSIDERED FOR SECRETARY Or C Of C The directors cf the Lake Placid Chamber of Commerce have had several mtetings during the past two weeks to consider applicants for the position of secretary of the chamber made vacant by the re- signation of Secretary E. C. Paar- man. . Several applications have been I received for the position, but as yet final decision has not been made. TO ESTABLISH KNIGHTS TEMPLAR Nearly twenty Knights Templar from Lake Placid, members of De- Sota Commandery of Plattsburtr, went to Plattsburg Monday night to attend the regular conclave of the order and to present a peti- tion and resolution favoring the organization of a new commandery to be located here and to be known as the Adirondack Commandery. DeSota Commandery was natur- ally reluctant to lose such a large number of mmbers, nearly fifty in all, who would dimit to the new commandery at Lake Placid, but were glad to see the new command- ery established here and gave their endorsement to the new organi- zation. Further steps in the organiza- tion of the Adirondack Command- ery will be a petition to the Grand Commandery of the Knights Tem- plar of New York State for a dis- pensation and charter. In addition to the fifty or more members of DeSota Commandery who would join here, there is an eqtial number from Franklin Commandery at Malone and others living in Sara- nac Lake and the immediate vicin- ity of Lake Placid. The new AdK rondack Commandery would have a charter membership of over one hundred. Among those who attended the conclave at Plattsburg Monday night were John F. White, R. C. Prime, Dr. F. C. Day, F. B. Guild, Willis Wells, R. F. Isham, E. C. Paarman, D. B. Colburn, Earl Pierce, Dr. G. A. Wilson, Walter C. Torrance, George E. Milson, James d'Amico, Carl Strobel, and Seth Bull.

The trip was not a long one. As originally planned, it was to go out on pake Placid however, snow conditions were good and the night was clear, so the party, after it had gatherd on Main street, decided in favor of Stevens hill After an enjoyable hour or more of practice and ski stunts on the hill, the party numbering about forty and including a sprinkling of out-of-town guests, gathered at the Venetian Garden restaurant where the genial \Harry\, a fellow club member, served heaping plat- ters of Italian spaghetti steaming hot from the kitchen. The tables, arranged together in the form of a large rectangle open at one end and occupying the center of the room, were tastefully decorated for the occasion. Following the supper an inform- al business meeting was held. Ar- rangements of details in connec- tion with the cross-country ski race for the Baldwin trophy are being worked out by a joint com- mittee of the local dub and Sara- nac Lake. Interest in the event, both here and in the neighboring village is growmg daily.

The date of the race, Feb- ruary 13, as originally set, may be changed, owing to recent arrange- ments in connection with skating meets in Saranac Lake and Lake Placid covering that date. Any change, however, will not inter- fere with the successful staging of the race. » Last night the dub, together with the senior class of the High j School, held a benefit dance in the school gymnasium with music by the Lake Placid Club dance orches- tra. Receipts from the dance are divided, the club's share to go to- wards defraying expenses of the cross-country race. It has been suggested that th«» Ski club put on an ice carnival, which would probably be held on Mirror Lake rink, during the time of the New York State ski cham- pionship tournament here, Febru- ary 20-22. The club meets on Main street opposite Grand View Sunday af- ternoon at 2 o'clock for its regu- lar weekly outing. Out-of-town visitors are welcome to come out with the club for the afternoon's run. HIGH SCHOOL FIVE WINS OVER TUPPER LAKEJUINT Game in Doubt Until Last Minute —Brace and Wfl*on Score Win sag Baskets Lake Placid high school quinte f won over Tupper Lake oh t>»e school court last Saturday n ? ght IS to 9. This was an Adirondack Interscholastic League game, and gives Placid a percentage nf 500. The boys dropped their first league contest to Saranac Lake before the holidays. Tiie Tupper game was close and exciting, with tight guarding marking the work of both fives. Placid won out in the last two minutes on baskets by Bruce and Wilson. The local team bombard- ed the basket all thru the contest, but inaccurate shooting kept the score down as it has in all games this season. Wilson opened the scoring for Placid. Tupper dropped in two long shot a, and the first quarter ended 4-2. Fouls by Bruce and Randal] tied up the score, and fin- ally after considerable play in Tupper's end of the court, Bruce and Randall each dropped in a basket, and the half ended 8-4. Tupper started the second half with a rush and soon jumped into the lead 9-8. Randall scored a foul, the only point Placid made during the period. The quarter ended 9-9. Fast and furious play marked the last quarter. In the final minutes Bruce shot a long basket and Wilson followed suit with one under the basket just as the whis- tle blew. The local boys meet Plattsburg there in a league game Friday night. Both fives have downed Tupper Lake, so a good fast con- test is on the cards. Placid and Plattsburg are tied for second place in the league standing with a percentage of 600. Coach Mc- Cutcheon is placing emphasis on shooting in this week's drills in an effort to eliminate weaknesses in this department that have crop- ped np to date. League Standing W L P. C.

As arranged at present races will be held on the Mirror Lake rink here on February 12 and 13 and on the Pontiac Rink, Saranac Lake, February 15 and 16. Eight events in all will be contested by these two outstanding blade stars. The exact division of the events be- tween Placid and Saranac Lake is not known as we go to press. Arrangements for Thunberg to appear here and at Saranac Lake were concluded last week in New York City by Henry Uihlein, 2nd, — honorary president of the Lake Pla- cid Skating Association, and Charles H. Goldsmith, president of the Saranac Lake Amateur Skat- ing Association. Mr. Uihlein has long been active in skating mat- ters. He is a former vice-presi- dent of the I. S. U., and for some time was president of the Adiron- dack Skating Association. Special Events In addition to the major match races between Jewtraw and Thun- berg, plans are also being perfect- ed for an invitation skating tour- nament in which many of the country's outstanding skating stars will display their wares. Plans are now under way in Lake Placid and Saranac Lake for such an in- vitation tournament. There will also be many special features in connection with the Cup match races including a program for the junior skaters and other interest- ing features. Jewtraw Here This Week Charlie Jewtraw is expected to arrive in Placid from New York City the latter part of this week to begin intensive training for one of the hardest tests of his entire career. The form that he display- ed when here over the holidays gave every indication that he is in the form that won him major SECTION THREE SKATING MEET HERESAIJAN.30 Keen Interest Among Essex and Clinton Connty Schoojboys in Elimination Trial* or, MrrrorRrak Everything is in * readiness for the section three school skating meet to be held on the Mirror Lake rink on Saturday, January 30. Schoolboy skaters from Essex and Clinton counties will contest in the various events for the right to represent their schools in the state mterscholastic championships to be skated at Saratoga on February 6th. The following high schools are expected to send in their entries: Keeseville, AuSable Forks, Platts- burg, Rouses Point, Elizabethtown, and Bloomingdale. These teams will be in addition to the Placid skaters who, from- their showing in the school meet last Saturday, will make a strong bid for the hon- ors. Additional entries may also come in before the closing date. Bialis and Parody Leaving for St John Valentine Bialis and Carl Par- ody are leaving for St. John, N. B., where they will represent Lake Placid in the World's International Skating Championships on January 26, 27 and 28. Bialis, on his past record, will give & good account of himself in the senior events. He is rapidly rounding into the form that he has displayed in the past. He was runner-up to Charles Gorman in the Middle-Atlantic championships skated at Newmirg, N. Y. on Janu- ary 1. This will be Parody's last year to skate in the intermediate cluss. He has high hopes of winning the championship in his class as he did in the meet a year ago. The form that he displayed in the school trials last Saturday is evi- dence that it is going to take ex- ceptionally fine skating to beat him. The best wishes of skating fans here go with these two Placid representatives in their quest for further laurels on the tee. ^ ^ r •..••• mm** Bruce rf Ferry d'Amico & Smith If Pimstein WiteOn c Murray Randall rg Schryn Fay lg grown field baskets: Placid—Bruce, 2; Wilson, 2; Randall, 1.

She starts out to find a young man who has stolen large sums of mo- ney while in her father's employ. Just as she seems sure of success he disappears. How she finally succeeds in her quest, aided by old friends of her. mother, and finds romance and ad- venture into the bargain, makes an intensely interesting story There is much of dramatic action, and the comedy lines are bright and unforced.
