NEW TEAM SHOWS FAST GAIT
Grain Celebrate Their En-
trance Into the Metropolitan
League by winning First
Game They Bowl.

Now that the Omaha bowlers are through
counting all the money they won at St
Joseph they are figuring IL they have
enough left to take them to Pittsburg to
the annual tourney Of the American Bowl
ing congress. The rollers OF the big balls
have buckled down to business since their
return and some fast matches have been
pulled off.
One Of the principal events OF the week is
the advent OF the Grain Merchants team,
which takes the place Of the Chicago Liquor
House team. They rolled the West Sides
and celebrated their first appearance by
taking three straight games. Weeks. their
captain. has an average of 1856. which is
going some for a cellar Lacquer" The
newly organized Borsheims are also going
some and Spetman. who bowled his first
game with them Wednesday, made an aver
age Of 1877, which gives him second place
among the individuals. The 81. James have
a fair lead for the first place. but the race
between the Stars and the Mixers is close
and exciting, while the race between the
Bungalows and the West Sides for last
place is also close. Everybody should get
into the merry-go-round which has been
started. The other one was won by Geddes
and Rosecrans with 1851; Rosecrans and
Lahecka, los. second place. and Gwynne
and ortman, 1,o7s. third place.
Thursday night will be the big night for
the Metropolitan league bo~lers. They will
assemble at the alleys and go over to Ort-
mans for the banquet. Every bowler OF
the league should be there and be ready
with a speech or song.

NEW YORK. Feb. 6,-George Stallings,

announced that he will take his players to

their superfluous flesh for the season Of

he, land a little more than that before the
season opens TO find the men l want.
There's nothing to be gained in being In
too much of a hurry. We want to get nine
men on the field who will play fast and
with good team work and am going to try
them all around until | find what looks like
the right combination with which 10 begin
the season. II II isn't right we will still
have some reserve players and from them

Some Fast Games.
Some fast games have been played in the
basket ball league of the Young Mems
Christian association, especially those OF
the class "A'' teams. which have been won
by close scores, two being decided in the
very last minute OF play by sensational
goal throwing. The Tigers lead class A
with two games to their credit Team
work is winning for them. Leo Wilson has
been the star, having scored fourteen points
on field goals in the T~fger-Zenith game.
The Zeniths are second, but they are inn
proving as the men find steady positions
assigned to them. The All Stars are round
ing into condition and will make a better
showing the rest of the journey.
Glass "B" games are almost as interest
ing as the class "A" but the teams are far
less evenly matched, some runaway scores
resulting. The Cubs, comprising the high
school squad, and the FLYERS hold the lead
at present. but are up against a few stiff
games and may drop a few notches. The
Has Beens and Are Nows are composed of
prominent business men in town who play
the game for the fun in it, but who are
nevertheless keeping their younger oppo-
nents guessing.
The games this week are: Tuesday at $50,

More Care In seheaaIc..

Princeton and Yale are not showing the
reckless abandon in the arrangements lof
their schedules that prevails in other quar-
tiers. The failure TO close a contract with
Harvard for a game in 1909 was a severe
disappointment to the Jungleites. The
Princeton-cornell game is a thing Of the
past and just at present the four con-
tests which stand out NEST prominent on
the perspective list are the games with
Yale. Army. Dartmouth and Navy. With
the adoption OF a new coaching system Il
was hoped at Princeton that a longer play
ing season and a longer schedule would be
adopted, but nothing authentic along these
lines is in sight at the present time.
At New Haven there is no sign CT a
radical departure from the schedule sys-
tenn IN vogue during the last two years.

HEAVY FOOT BALL SCHEDULES
East and West Teams Prepare for
Epoch Making Season.
SOME NEW COLLEGE ALLIANCES
Colleges Are DESTROYS of Increasing
the Importance of Their SEIZED
uIes During the Coming
Season of 10O0.

NEW YORK, Feb. eff the preliminary
announcements of the big university foot
ball teams of the east and west can be
taken as a criterion, 1909 will long be re-
membered as AN epoch-making season in
the ~gridiron sport. Due to the continual
ton of old and the forming of new alli-
ances in college athletic circles, the COM
ing autumn will fairly bristle' with foot ball
games of unusual csliber. II the progress
along these lines is to continue during the
next few years the pigskin millennium may
be expected to be heralded in a few seasons
by the announcement of a game between
Yale and Pennsylvania.
With few exceptions the larger eastern
universities appear DESTROYS of increasing
the Importance OF the games which will go
to make up their 1909 schedules. In this
respect Harvard and Pennsylvania appear
to be the leaders, as is fitting. since they
divided between them first place in the
gridiron ranking during 1898. The Crimson.
flushed by its victory over Yale. is in the
throes Of a schedule which, II adopted in
its entirety. will astonish even the hard
working Quaker elevens of other years.
accustomed, as they have been, to wading
through a list Of contests running into
double figures. While Harvard's schedule
is not yet ready for official publication, It
is certain that during the months Of Octo-
Der and November Yale, Cornell, the Army
and the Indians will all be tackled in addi-
ton TO either Brown or Dartmouth, to say
nothing OF the preliminary contests in
which Maine, Bowdoin, Vermont and Tufts,
or teams of this csliber. will figure. With
this list of games in sight it is not surpris-
ing that the much-talked-of Harvard
Princeton game has been put over for a
year at least.
The University OF Pennsylvania foot ball
management Is gradually working out the
schedule for the Quakers for the coming
season and. not to be outdone by the
Johnnies. Cornell, Carlisle. Michigan and
possibly the Army, will figure as the i'm
portant contests of the autumn. In addi-
ton to these contests Swarthmore. Lafay-
cite. Pennsylvania State and Brown will
require dates. together with at least one
southern university. Not satisfied. how
ever. with this tentative list Of games, the
old agitation for a revival OF the foot ball
series with Princeton is in fun blast again
and. like the constant dripping OF water
which wears away the stone. il may be
that the Tigers and the Red and Blue may
be seen once again mingling on the grid
iron.

INCREASE IN COUNTY SCH0LASTICS.
TabuIated Statement Shows Material Increase

10 School Money.

County Judge A. N. Henson

work of compiling the names of
the children in Randall county
who are entitled to public free
school money from the state for
the next year. For the county
there is an increase of nearly
twenty per cent over that of last
year which is quite percentage
and goes to show just how rapid
ly the county is developing.
True, good schools have brought
many to the county who would
have located at some other point.
The consolidated rolls which
Judge Henson has just complet-
ed and forwarded to Austin
shows that there are 81 of schol-
astic age within the Canyon City
Independent District and 391 in
the rural districts making a
total of 708 for the entire county
Last year 285 were registered
within the Canyon City Inde

were 304 in the rural districts
an increase in the city of 80 anC
