OAK PARK
TEAM PROMISING

Oak Park, champion of the Cook
County High School Football league,
again looms up as the favorite for the
title honors. In its initial contest on
Saturday afternoon the suburbanites
showed conclusively that they have
one of the greatest offensive machines
ever seen on a local prep gridiron.
University High, which was expected
to give Oak Park a hard tight, sue
cumbed to the largest score of the day,
losing SO to 0.
Coach Zuppke has demonstrated the
possibilities of the new rules and has
taken advantage of many points over
looked by other prep coaches. The
forward pass, with its many complica-
tions, has brought many touchdowns
in the early season games, while it pro-
duced or was largely responsible for
over half of the touchdowns scored in
Saturdays game.

Greeley.-That the bed OF an an

streams are stin pouring. winds under
meath the plains in the vicinity of
Pierce is the opinion of those who
have been sinking wells In that re-
gion and was further substantiated
when James Gault discovered the pet
rifed bones OF a mammoth In the ex-
cavation for a well on his farm east
of Pierce.
Dan Kinney of Eaton, in 'witching
for water on the Gault place. located
the well when others had failed. The
depth is twenty-seven feet and big
stream was encountered. sending out
a flow sufficient. Gault says. to irri-
gate his farm OF 100 acres.
There was no evidence Of water for
twenty feet, when suddenly the strata
became moist and what first ap-
peared to be a big rock was uncov-
cred. Close inspection showed it to
be the remains Of a mammoth. The
opinion of those who have explored
the country is that they are the pet
rified bones OF one Of the big ele-
chants which roamed this territory
millions OF years ago and browsed on
vegetation along the river. The same
kind of fossils are found along the
