OJEDA ROUTS BIG
REBEL FORCE
Goes Out of Naco to Attack Army
Twice as Large as His Own
Command.

Naco, Ari., March l7.--Instead of wait
ing to be attacked by nearly 1000 insur'
gent state troops, Gen. ojeda, with les
than 500 federal soldiers, went out from
Naeo Saturday and defeated the enemy
In three hours of aggressive fighting
lpeppering the enemy's line with rifle and
machine gun bullets and spraying lead
from shrapnel shells over hills adopted as
Notifications, the Huerta federals drove
the state forces five miles to the south
east. Late Saturday the government
forces returned victorious to the Mexican
border town opposite this point.
Even the victors did not believe the
fighting ended, however, nor Naco secure
from assault. The state forces were as
sembling Saturday night in still greater
numbers to wrest the only remaining
port on the Sonora border from the
hands of the Huerta national govern
ment
With the advantage of unexpected ag-
gression and possessing five artillery
pieces, the little brown, barefooted sol
diers defending the military honor Of the
new Huerta regime fought as wild men
against seemingly overwhelming odds.
Protected by the artillery fire, the
federals scrambled over the hillocks and
fearlessly began firing their rifles at the
enemy appearing in the distance.
It was the group under Elias Gales
which first attacked, the state troops
soon fell back. The other half OF the
ionalist forces under Perfecto
J. 10 hnA - tha
the east and with roar of artillery and
the continuous rattle of rifles the battle
was on. For an hour desperate fighting
continued. Little by little the state
troops fell back from the biting fire of
the aggressors. For full mile the
Huerta soldiers pursued closely the re-
treating enemy, advancing the artillery
from the rear of the skirmish lines.
Bodies of killed and wounded troopers lie
deserted on the field.
On behalf of the state of Arizona,
Sheriff H. c. Wheeler of Tombstone early |
n the day insisted there should be no
repetition OF the shooting across the |
border as at the Nogales battle. This
moved the federal commander to aban- /
Ion his Notifications, and set out after |
he enemy. Five troops of the 9th and |
'th United States cavalry were on duty
long the border, keeping back non-com-
'atants. The ony person wounded dur
ng the fight on the American side was
\. A. Hopkins, deputy United States
MARSHAL He was injured in the knee
While doing neutrality duty on the line.
As at Nogales, American volunteers in
automobiles dared the fire to rescue
rounded under the protection of the Red
ross flag.

HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE.
Must Be Adjusted or We Have no Real
Educational System.

Unless the American high school and
the American college are adjusted, We
have no real educational system" says
Clarence d. Kingsley, in bulletin on
college entrance requirements just Isl
sued by the United States bureau Of
education In these words he sums up
the current demand that the colleges of
the country shall give the high schools
more freedom in their work by ceasing
to insist upon requirements for entrance
that hamper the school in its duty to
the community. He insists that the
college recognize the changing demands
in the high school and base their re-
quirements accordingly He objects
alike to the easy" college that admits
students obviously unprepared and the
institution whose demands are so strin-
gent that none of the public high schools
can reasonably meet them.
Notwithstanding recent changes in the
direction of uniformity, great variety IN
requirements is still found. English is
about the only regularly required sub
ject. Curious contradictions appear IN
the several hundred institutions ex-
amined. Certain subjects are considered
so important by some colleges that they
require them, while other colleges will
not even accept them. Thus, for ad-
mission to the A. b. course there are four
colleges that give no credit for science.
and four that give credit for only half
year of it, while, on the other hand, 81
colleges prescribe one full year of science
Such contradictions as these" saws Mr..
Kingsley, burden the high school, pro-
yincialize college student bodies and dis
credit between subjects" Again, some
colleges rigidly enforce the statements
printed in the catalogue, while Others |
leave much discretionary power to the
officer in charge of admission.
Some real improvements in the rela- |
ton of high school and college are noted, |
however, showing that these two i'm
portant agencies in education are more |
willing to help each other than they have .
in the past. Many colleges now accept !
various practical subjects for admis-
sion. OF the 203 colleges of liberal arts !
examined. % recognized shopwork, IS
branches, so agriculture, and
20 household science" as subjects OF adj /
mission. There is a large and growing
list of colleges that will accept for en-
trance any subject that an approved /
high school counts toward graduation.
The admission 10 college should be
based solely upon on the completion OF a \
high school course; that
the high school should be given free
play. 50 that il may adapt its work TO
he needs of the community; and that
