For Akron High
School Team.
Cleveland Boys Won
Football Game.
Planets Undiscourased and Are
Working Hard.

The opening of the football season in
Akron resulted In defeat for the local
eleven but it was by no means bad
defeat. In fact the score would have
been tied had the second half gone
6ve minutes longer. The game was
between the local High school eleven
and Cleveland South High school. The
cleveland team had a slight advantage
I'm weight and a vast advantage
IN practice. II was not until the Sec
bnd half was more than half over that
the local eleven settled down to play
ing form. At the call of time In the
second half zettle and Davies were
hitting the Cleveland limo for great
gains. But little can be said of the
defensive work of either team. Nor
rls, the fullback, and Donley, right
tackle, went through Akron's line al
most at will and It was these two play
ers who were responsible for Akron's
lefeat. Donley seldom failed to make
less than four yards on tackle bucks
through the right side, while Morris
went through the local line in man
nsr, that was heart-rending to the local
High School rooters. Bad fumbles by
South Highs quarter back cost the
Cleveland eleven n touchdown in the
first haif as the locals line was like
feather In a strong wind. However
they put up strong defense when
South High was dangerously near
their goal and held for downs when
South High had the pigskin within
one foot of the coveted goal ilne Dav-
ies kicked off In the second half and
Donley and Morris tore through Ak
ron's line like a mad bull after red
flag. After seven minutes Morris
planted the pig skin behind Akron's
goal line and kicked goal. Score:
South High Q, Akron High o.
1t looked as IL South High would
walk over for second touchdown but
Donley was tackled hard and lost the
ball and local player fell on it. Then
the red and white players woke up.
Davies went through hole in the right
side big enough for a moving van, for
is yards. Zettle followed, and the two
players were working the ball steadily
toward South Highs goal when time
was called.
The bright star Of the game was
Gregory, captain and quarterback Of
the local eleven. He goC into almost
every play and never grew weary of
shouting words of encouragement.
Although he was laid out no plucliily
returned to the game and his tackling
stopped Donley and Morris on more
than one occasion When they had
broken through theline and were speed
ing down the field. If the other play
ers had only played with the same vim
and dash there might have been a
different story to tell.
Davies and Zettle hit the line in the
second half in O manner that showed
TINT there are good halfback and
full back on the local eleven. In fact
the whole eleven picked up near the
end Of the game and showed that there
Is good material In the team, which
will be heard from later In the season.

The Pardee supporters claim that
the young men should be terribly in
suited by the inference drawn from
the folders issued by exvMayor Young,
to the effect that Mr.. Pardee is too
young and inexperienced for the du-
ties of the office he seeks. The attl-
tude Of these supporters was differ
ent last spring while they were work
ing against Judge Tibbals. They even
had the inexcusable temerity at that
time to state that Judge Tibbals was
in his dotage, and therefore unfit for
holding the Office. No greater insult
could be offered to the intelligence of
the voters of the county. And If the
statement that Mr.. Pardee is too young
for office be accepted as an unkindness
to young men, what must the opinion
of the people relative to the statement
that Judge Tibbals is in his dotage
Which is the worse, to insult beard

PLANETS UNDISCOURAGED.
1t has required few days for the
members of the Planet football team
to recover from the effects Of the game
at Shelby, for the local men were prac-
tically unframed physically, and sus-
tanned a good many bruises. They are
undiscouraged, however, by the re-
suit of their first game and are now
training daily for their next game,
which will be against the Canton team
next Sunday.
Someone started rumor TO the ef-
feet that the Planets had disbanded,
but such is not the case, by any means
and the club expects to have as strong
an amateur team as there will be in
the city. Amateur, of course, means that
the players are non-salaried. The in
PRODUCTION of paid players takes team
out Of the amateur sport at once and
makes it professional.

One of the statements made at the
meeting before the Republican County
Executive committee, at which the
Nestors are alleged to have talked,
was wholly overlooked by the Beacon
Journal. In fact, it was the opening
remark Of a short address delivered by
Chairman Clyde F. Beery, and he ought
not to be sighted in the distribution of
publicity, for he is good fellow. A
man who was in attendance at the
meeting says that Mr.. Beery began
his address with the following remark
my friends, we have very dangerous
situation on our hands" When Judge
Upson began to speak, he stated that
he had come to the meeting. by request.
1t would seem that Mr. Beery spoke
correctly as to the danger Of the sit
uation, especially since the party has
been compelled to drag its Nestors from
their firesides and make them fight
shoulder to shoulder with the young
men.

1t Is said that in case of the election
Of Mr.. Jared Barker to the office of
Sheriff of Summit county, Mr.. w. e.
Eckerman will be appointed chief
deputy. Mr.. Eckerman denies this,
however, and as an argument against
it, states that his present business is
more profitable than the position Of
deputy sheriff. The opinion generally
is that If he accepted the position un-
der Mr.. Barker, 1t would be with a
view to getting into line for some of
the higher county Offices. He has long
been one of the most enthusiastic
workers of the G.. o. p, and it is only
natural to anticipate that there Is a
reward ahead for him.

NO WORD FROM McGOyERN OR

known that he would like very much
to make match to fight either Terry
MeGovern or young Corbett," and
has formally challenged McGovern
through Sam Harris, his manager,
pect of coming to terms. When Simms
declared himself to Harris, that
doughty gentleman was all smiles and
indicated that he thought the match
would draw well, and could easily be
arranged, but nothing has been done
since to show that Harris was sincere.
Simms believes that good offer for a
fight between him and either Mccoy

the International club at Buffalo, and
he Is anxious to have the matter ar
ranged.

In the meantime Art will fight the
fights that are in reach and do the
things that are nearest. He is train
