daring plays that made football history
 He said yesterday that the high school scuad had some good material in it though he has not vet looked over the lineup. He is still more interest ed in football than in anything else and will be glad to see the Phoenix high school put forth team that will clean up every other school team in the territory.
 The team has been coached by Birch and for the last two nights by Ernest Stroud. Good progress has been made but the presence of Rockwell on the field will make a vast difference in the team work.
 Three games have been definitely arranged for The first will be Nov. when the second team of the Uni versity of Arizona will come up for a game at Eastlake park. Tucson's first team is too heavy for the high school boys and a little too strong a proposi- tion for a first game. Later op-well, a few victories may produce enough confidence in the boys that they will want to tackle the university.
 Friday morning. Nov. 12. Williams will come here for a game. This is fair week and the game will be in the morning so as not to interfere with any of the fair attractions. The big game of the season will be Nov ,, Thanks giving Day. It will be with the Pres colt high school team at Eastlake park. Prescott has a fine team trained by an excellent coach, F. H. Hart.
 The high school boys are doing their level best to learn the game. Twenty four of them in their new suits ap- peared on the grounds yesterday af- ternoon at 2:30 o'clock und went through all sorts of practice. They ended up with a scrimmage. Pau, Brooks was elected captain of the team but the others who will defend the honor of the school have not been se- lected yet. Many of the boys have played football before. Brooks was with the Hastings. Neb.. team fast year. Herbert Fresten. who is pretty sure of a place in the line, played with the Fl Paso high school. Grinsted played with St. Vincents. Los Angeles and with Reno high school Verne Latourette, a brother of Lyman Latourette, who made the university team this year. is another boy woo may be relied on to make his place. Harry Groves is show ingSup well. His record as a runner will make him very valuable on the team. Goebel is another man who is pretty sure of a place on the eleven. He has the proper football germ fin him He is a brother to the big Yale guard who was picked this year by Walter Camp for the All American team. an honor every football player in the counte' strives for.
 Tucson Smith. who played on the Tucson high school team last year, and Alton Stoner. one of the more re- cent candidates, are developing into good players. Gregg Irvine looks like good football material. With little ] more snap to his work he will have a fair chance of making the eleven. Earl 1 Hawley and the two Smiths. Leslie and Ernest, are working hard for places and there are stillD others whose work | is just as deserving of notice.

A JOYFUL PAsTIME
It's Really Pleasure to Cure Ca
 tarrh By Breathing Hyomei


 It isfft a pleasure to saturate your stomach with vile nostrums or to shock the tender membrane of the nose and throat with disagreeable sprays and touches
 But strange to say there are a few thousand people'who do not keep abreast Of the times and are hoping against hope that these ancient meth ods will rid them of catarrh.
 If the readers of the Republican who suffer from catarrh want to ban ish, this vile and disgusting disease forever go to Lovett's drug store to- day and get a complete Hyomci (pronounced High-o outfit for s1.0O.
 If it doesn't cure it won't cost you a cent because the Lovett drug store will give you your money back.
 Hyomei is so simple and pleasant to use; pour few drops from the bottle into the inhaler and breathe it in. As it passes over the mem brane and into the lungs with the air you breathe it soothes the raw membrane and kills the catarrh germs. Don't experiment longer. Leading druggists everywhere sell Hyomei for catarrh. colds. bronchitis. etc. Drop a postal for our free book, Booths Famous People, Boothe's Hyomei Co. RuffalO N Y

NO use
TO SIGNAL MARS FOR The MAR1IANS
CAN'T SEE US.
authorities

Washington, Sept. sS.-This is a
most interesting date for star gazers
and others interested in astronom-
ical science. 1t IS not only the day
of the autumnal equinox, when the
sun crosses the celestial equator go
ing south, and the winter half-year
begins, but it is also the date OF the
opposition of Mars, when that planet
is at its minimum distance from the
earth, IS, 900, 900 kilometres.
Some scientists have suggested
that it might be a good time for
Mother Earth to try the experiment
of signalling to her nearest neighbor.
Aside from all other considerations,
the success of such experiment is
manifestly impossible at this time,
for when the two worlds are nearest
together the earth is invisible from
Mars. This is because of the fact
that at the time of the opposition the
sun and the twoplanets are in line.
Thus, when the earth passes between
the sun and Mars, the bright hemiS-
phere being naturally turned toward
the sun, the other one, turned to-
wards Mars, remains plunged in dark
ness and is consequently invisible.
1t would, therefore, be in vain for
the Martians to try to discover some
thing on the earth at this time. Even
if great electric lights should be plac-
ed on every square yard of the whole
terrestrial hemisphere, turned toward
them, they would, nevertheless, be
unable to discern the illumination,
for they would be looking in the
direction of the dazzling sun.
