FOOTBALL TO SOON
SUPPLAN BASEBALL
The Present Athletic Hero Will
Retire into the Back Ground
For a Time.
PROSPECTS AT EARLHAM
THEY ARE CONSIDERED GOOD BY
THE COLLEGE AUTHORITIES
OBJECTION TO SOME OF THE
RULES.

In another six weeks Richmond
knights of the gridiron will be on
their way to college athletic fields, to
forget the classics and sciences while
they master the art of line bucking
and skirting the ends.
The end of the baseball year is
drawing to close. 1t will not be
long until the diamond hero goes back
to the hot stove company and the foot
ball player takes his place in the
sporting limelight.
Several Richmond athletes, who
have heretofore made good reputa-
lions on prep" school teams have re-
ceived Inducements from larger col
leges TO enter and play football this
fall. Richmond has number of ath-
letes who will participate in college
athletics during the coming college
year.
At Earlham the prospects for a win
ming football team are considered good
by the college authorities. With the
appearance of Laurence. the dimin-
utive kicking quarter back of two
years ago, in the line up. the Quakers
chances of winning portion of their
schedule is bright, as Laurence has a
happy faculty of locating the center
of the goal posts on punts and drop
kicks With Clifford Carey in the
fold. Earlham should again be able to
do something. Carey was largely re-
sponsible for winning every game the
Quakers won last year. He always
made the winning touch down in close
games, and in those where the local
BOYS had a runaway, Carey was the
man who made the majority of the
points
There is considerable talk among
local foot ball men as to the freshmen
and conference rules forced on the
smaller colleges by the larger univer-
stiles These rules are branded as
foolish by local gridiron enthusiasts.
The Freshman rule. which prohibits
the playing OF Freshmen on the yarsi-
ty teams. the rule limiting the number
of games to be played each season.
and the four-year rule. are all classed
as "hoaxes" and there is an opinion in
Richmond that these will be done
away with after the present year. The
foot ball rules will remain practically

good, and is well liked by both players

Notes From the Benches.

The locals put up good game In
the field Sunday. They made only
ono hobble and this was excusable,
n the team can put up this kind Of
a game on the grounds when they
are in their present condition It
ought TO show the teams around this
country some fast fielding when the
grounds get in condition.
Dummy Laughlin left Monday
evening to Join the Leavenworth
club In the Western association.
Laaghlln is, In the opinion OF many,
the fastest player ever seen on the
local grounds and his loss Will be
felt.
Willie Weller is rounding into
form and will make the other men,
beers OF the team 90 some to keep
up with him In both hitting and field
ing.
Smith will be out OF the game for
probably month. This will bring
the list OF players down to ten and
will necessltate the using Of a pitch.

SCHOOL WILL
CLOSE TOMORROW
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Tomorrow the present session Of
the city schools close and teachers In
the various departments are now Civ
ing the end Of the year examinations
Although the closing of the session
has been anticipated, 1t had been
thought possible until this week to
continue for another month yet.
Under tho state laws, the school
board is prohibited from overdraw-
ing at the banks for the purpose of
continuing the schools after the vail
able cash has been exhausted. OF
the funds which should have been
expended in this years school expen-
SEES about $4,000 are still outstand-
ing in unpaid taxes. This Is the first
year OF the Independent school dis
trict taxes and the collections have
not been as complete as should have
been the case. The outstanding taxes
are for the most part in small
amounts ranging from 1Oc to $40
To collect these will require more
time than can be given unless the
schools run on money borrowed eth
er from the teachers by withholding
salaries or from the banks by over
drawing. This Is expressly forbidden
so the school board at its meeting
this week had to order the close of
the session Friday
The abrupt dismissal will disaf-
range the work somewhat but 1t is
thought that this can be overcome by
special arrangement, at the opening
next fall. The graduating class Will
be enabled to complete its work this
year and will receive diplomas at the
regular commencement exercises.
Next year the matter of tax col
LOTIONS will be more thoroughly pro-
vided for and the deficit which has
occurred this year will be forestalled.
Under the arrangement made several
weeks ago, the official city tax as
SCISSOR and collector will have charge
Of the Independent district taxes and
by combining the collections OF the
city and district there will be less
likelihood of property owners becom-
ing delinquent.

BATTLE ROYAL THIS EVENING,
Team Is Playing the Canyon Aggrc.
cation on Canyon Grounds.
From Thursdays Daily.l

The closest contest OF the games
yet played is that which Canyon and
Amarillo is playing this afternoon
on the grounds at Canyon. Canyon
has a team to bring out the best eff
forts OF any opponent and in the Sc
rles with Amarillo will, as usual,
bend all energies toward getting the
winning scores. There are more
seasoned men on the Canyon team,
and larger men, than there are on
the Amarillo team. 1t is heavy hit
ting bunch. too, and the Amarillo
field is likely to have plenty of work
to do.
with the line up that the home
team had today and the showing
they have been making lately, the
management we're well satisfied with
their chances in the games. Several
Of the Amarillo men are young and
are light, but they have shown abll-
ity to play the game hard and have
developed team work that makes
their play effective. This afternoon,
hcCloskey the veteran pitcher goes
in the box for Amarillo. This Is
McCloskey's first time in the box
here but the entire team has great
confidence in him and his presence
in the line up will greatly strengthen
the team. The batting order Is Nc

team plays at Canyon today, tomor

managers and the oklahomans have
gone on to Roswell where they arc
playing a series.

Alva, Okla, will be the next team

the grounds here. Tho oklahomans
are said 10 have bunch Of baseball
men that play the game hard but
they have not appeared in this part
OF the country yet this year so the
first indication OF their ability will
be given in the games which the
team will play at Canyon. The Alya

team is playing a series. They then
20 to Roswell for games with the
Cadets on Friday and Saturday, Mon
day they will be In Amarillo for a
series Of three games with the team
here.
In the meantime, however, Captain
Foy will have chance TO try the
nettle OF his men in a series OF games
at Canyon beginning Friday. The
Randall county people have unmls-
takably got good team and the
games there will be the closest cons
tests yet played. The fielding and
hitting shown in the last game with
Roswell was the kind that can show
a safe margin against the Canyon
men and the Amarillo team is ready
20 give that performance, and bet
ter, now in every game.
