COLLEGE GAMES
Alabama Skins Auburn.

Tuscaloosa, April 23.-(Special. 1.-The
 first installment of the annual Alabama
 Auburn baseballic bout was pulled off on
 the university campus this afternoon with
 a to 1 result in favor of the locals.
 Perfect weather, a large and good na-
 tured crowd, well played game and way
 ing college colors all contributed to make
 the day one to be long and favorably re-
 membered by the Tuscaloosa fans.
 Dr. Pollard nominated Smith to do the
 twirling for the Crimson White,' while
 Reynolds was placed at the firing pit for
 the A. P. l. lads. Smith easily out
 pitched his opponent, which fact tells in
 nutshell why Alabama won. In fact,
 the 12 hits secured from Reynolds deliv-
 cry counting for only three tallies, was piece of horseshoe luck for Coach Don- ahos aggregation.
 The first run came in the first inning. After Watson and Pratt had singled and Pope walked, Noojin put one to third that caught Watson at the plate but allowed Pratt to score when First Baseman Me- Coy of Auburn dropped the ball. Auburn tied things up in the third. Red Smith got life on Pratt's error, was sacrificed to second, got to third on a wild pitch and was worked across the plate on very tight 'squeeze."
 In her half of the fifth the university batsmen went after Pitcher Reynolds with vengeance, Smith, Reidy and Watson getting bingles in rapid succession and the first two counting on Pope's two-base hit.
 Pope further ingratiated himself with the grandstand in the fifth by figuring in hot rad fha Orange and Bfue.'
 Hannon and Smith, the respective Ala bama and Auburn shortstops, played gilt edge ball all the time. Score: R.H E. Alabama .. .. .. .. .. 100 O20 0O0-3 F 2 Auburn .. .. ... 00 900 000-1 5 3 Line ups:

 MT. Munsey in this article clears away vast amount of the distorted and awfully befogged ideas about this financial crash. The article is clear, convincing, forteful.

Uncle Sam is Doing Good Job Ct
Woodyard Cleaning to Prevent
TImberIand Fires.

Tlmberland Fires.
Uncle Sam has begun houseclean-
Ing job that probably will last 20
years. The old gentleman always did
hate to see rubbish lying around IN
the wood yard. being mighty neat and
particular In his habits. and Il wasn't
the work for women folk. and the cap
1talist hired men couldn't be trusted.
so he just rolled up his sleeves and
went to work himself. The national
forests is the official name of the
backyard space that Uncle purposes 10

and then he will invite the neighbors
In to have q good time and shoot all
the bears aud squirrels they feel like.
The underbrush and fallen timber ac-
general injury 10 the live trees. but q
menace In case OF forest FIRE. so that
the thing to do is to clean up every
where and burn the rubbish.
A thinning out of inferior trees,
leaving the finest aud most perfect
stand of timber. Is going on at the
same time. says the New York Tri-
bune. AS mater Of fact, Uncle Sam
Is. too shrewd to bend his own back at
tho job, but he supervises, through his
foresters, the work OF private con-
tractors and sawmill men. He let's
them cut down the undesirable trees
and makes them destroy the waste
and old stuff A ranger goes through
the forest and marks the inferior
trees, such as have punk knots, spike
tops. low forks and scars of fire or
frost. These make good merchantable
lumber, while their removal bettera
the environment of the choice specl-
mems that are saved. The sawmill
man doesn't dare to take anything ex-
cept the marked trees; and he must
cut them so that they will not damage
standing trees when they fall, Sad
must leave low stump instead OF a
high stump, as under the old reckless
methods. After settlers have helped
themselves to what they want OF the
waste the rest is heaped up in conlcal
piles. All the small stuff. rnder-
brush and branches. is put in the cen.
ter and the heavier pieces stacked on
the outside. II wouldn't do to bnrn
this mass in dry season, because that
would start forest fire that would
clean up too thoroughly. Nature sup
plies a safe means of solving the prob
lem during the winter months by
wrapping heavy blankets of snow
around the conical heaps. Along
comes the forester with gasoline
can, bores his way into the center OF
the pile. puts on the oil and applies a
match. The fire burns slowly and
eats It's way through the heart of tho
wasteful material The flames don't
rise TO the surrounding trees, because
the BLANKET Of snow keeps them down,
and in few hours a circle of black
Goals in the snow shows where the
pile OF waste stood.
After cleaning and burning, the for
est officials look after replanting in
places that need 1t. Sometimes the
tops OF first-class seed trees are
shaken over the ground, u rough and
ready way of planting.

FIND BODY OF NAN IN BRUSH
Had Long Lay Hidden on Wolcott
Mountaln-Always Been Thought
to Be a Murder.

Southington, Conn. July 31.--Tht
finding by berry pickers Thursday OI
the skeleton of a man which had lone
lain hidden in the bushes on Wolcott
mountain revived the story of what
has always been thought by the people
of Southington and Wolcott to be q
murder. Four years ago Robert Perry
who lived at the foot Of the mountain
disappeared after receiving a legacy
OF $4,000 from England. Later his
wife disappeared after telling a story
to the effect that Perry had gone t.
England to claim more money. For
weeks townspeople searched the
mountain side and even partially tore
down Perry's house and dug up the
cellar to find traces of his body The
Southington Water Co.. which EN-
ployed Perry as caretaker, assisted
In the search. Mrs. Perry was mar
ried three times before she met Perry
and when the first and second hus,
bands died the medical examiner here
was called In to view the bodies. He
made no report on either case. Her
third husband got divorce.
