FOR THE CHICAGO TEAM

Alonzo Stagg. physical director Of the uni

talented and accomplished pigskn kicker to
take the place of Walter Eckersal who closed
his football career last year.
Stagg declares that Maroon eleven with
out good kicker would be like a fish withou.

With this in mind Director Stagg has re-

pective candidates a pigslin with lesson on
how to boot the ball. They are requested TO

No one, probably, realized more than Stagg
the effectiveness of good punting and goal

Five Events Are
Decided

Lovers of light harness racing were
treated to some good sport at the regular
monthly matinee of the Los Angeles Driv-

terday afternoon. Five events were down
on the boards for discussion, and some
of the best matinee horses in the south
land were on the track at one time or
another.
Fresno Boys race against Silver Dick
in the last number on the card was easily
the feature of the afternoon. This 3-year-
old PAGER of Paunder's was up against a
stiff proposition in the Payton performer
but he behaved with more than ordinary
credit
Fresno Boy has been in training but
few months, while the horse he raced
against yesterday is an old matinee cam
paigner, but the 3-year-old made the
older horse quit in both heats. In the
first heat Silver Dick carried the Founder
colt along at fast gait. the quarter be-
ing negotiated in 80 and the half in los,
but Fresno Boy came away in the stretch
and won handily. This also happened in
the second heat and the Founder entry
was heartily cheered when he returned to

ARMY NIGHT SCHOOL
MILL OWNERS GENEROUSLY GIVE
 NEW ROOM.
The Salvation Army's Efforts te Estab- lish . Night school are Sec 0nded by Mill
 ReOnle..

Captain odom and his corps of Sal- vation Army workers have been re- warded in their efforts to have first class night school for the poor chil- dren of the Peoples Cotton Mill, as the mill owners have given them the other half of the house where the school is now held. This Is received with gratitude by the Salvation Army as their school had grown to such large proportions that 1t was almost impos- sible to handle the children in the one room that they had.
 The work in the new place will be- gin January 1. and 1t is expected that the additional room will enable the teachers to take care of great many more children, many of whom have applied, but who have been turned away by a lack of room.
 While the mill owners have known that we needed the extra room. l at- tribute my success In getting t largely to the story that appeared a few days ago in The Advertiser relative> to the night school" said Captain Odom last night. All who have seen our school have commended us on it and that the school is benefit to the children there is evidenced by the manner in which they recite when called upon.
 After the first of the year we will have room enough to take care of nearly all of the children at the mill who want an education. Heretofore we have taken only the smaller ones, as the larger children and young men and women did not enjoy studying lessons with little boys and girls, hence 1t would not be conducive to suc- cess to put them together. Without another room we had to turn them away. think that the most of the new room will be taken up with these older pupils and doubtless we will be able to do good in that direction.
 Although we are all very busy with our Christmas tree celebration right now, the school keeps going just the same. I feel that when we get the ether school to running in good shape and the older pupils started to work. that we will have an ideal night school for mill children. and that many a little fellow will get the rudiments of an education there that perhaps never would under different circum- stances"
