Before a large crowd Celina seclr-
ed another victory last Sunday, when
they put the kibosh on Huenke, the far
famed Texas League twirler, winning
the easiest game of the fall series.
The New Bremen man looked to have
the goods, when in the first inning after
Bethel and Behring had singled he fan
ned the three heavy hitters of the team,
Gray, Betz and Varley, In the second
he again came back strong, tanning in
succession Pumphrey, Parcher and
McComb. But he could not hold up
before that hard slugging aggregation.
After again tanning Varley in the sixth
and with two strikes on Gray, he gave
Dolly one to his liking, and the big man
secured one of his famous home runs, the
first made on the local diamond this
season. The ball scared high towards
center several feet over Wissman head
Dolly made the circuit and Huenke went
up. Betz, next up, walked. Pumphrey
flied out to Fredericks and parcher sing
led. McComb walked but Hirsch was
out on a long fly to center One run.
In the seventh Bethel bunted down the
first base line and was safe on, Wehmey-
ers error. Behringer bunted down the
third base line too slow to field. Varley
flew out to Fredericks, Gray laced one to
center Bethel and Behringer scoring.
Betz hit to short and was safe on a throw
to catch Gray. Pumphrey walked, but
Parcher and McComb struck out. Two
more runs.
Then came the heart-rending eighth.
Hirsch singled, but was forced at second
on Betzel' S attempt to sacrifice. Bethel
stole second and Behringer singled.
Varley singled, scoring Bethel Huenke
afraid of another home run walked Gray,
filling the bases. He might as well have
made Gray hit for they are all Athletic
slabsmen in the Celina line up. He got
two strikes on Betz, when the manager
laid onto a dinky out, which netted him
three sacks and cleaned the bases He
also scored a moment later on Pumph-
rey's sacrifice.
Parcher singled. McComb singled and
stole second, but Hirsch ended the
misery for the New Brementes and Cap
tain George Myers by tanning. Five
runs.
Hirsch had the visitors at his mercy
until the sixth, when Wehmeyer singled
over Behringer's head. The ball rolled
into the auditorium and was lost, the
visiting first baseman circled the bases.
It was New Bremen's only run.
Captain Myers tried his best to make
tally in ihe seventh, when he attempted
to score on a two-bagger, which rolled
between Parcher's legs, but wonderful
relay work, caught big George at the
plate, The score:

CONTROL or LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Col. Maus Gives His Views on Right
to Regulate or Prohibit Sale Of
Alcoholic Beverages.

Col L. Mervin Maus OF the U. s.
army medical corps before the Ma
tional Association OF Military Sur
geons, said:
Governments, states, counties and
municipalities have a legal right to
regulate or prohibit the sale of alco-
holic beverages just the same as they
have the right to prohibit the commu-
nifty against malignant diseases of per-
nicious narcotic habits. Everywhere
the liquor traffic is subject to control
and the legitimacy of such laws have
been sustained by the highest courts.
Only recently the war department
has issued an order depriving officers
and enlisted men of pay while on sick
report or unable to perform duty as q
result of diseases and conditions con-
tracted through drinking or other vi
cious practises.
In view OF It's temporary and perma-
nent disabling and disqualifying ef-
fects, both on the mind and body, let
us hope that the government may
soon see the wisdom ofprohibiting the
use of alcohol among officers Of the
and naval forces and officials
and employees Of the civil service.

BREWERS FACING HARD TIMES
Nothing Optimistic In Address OF
President sehssfer at Recent
New York Convention.

For many years, In their national
and state conventions, brewers have
always opened their proceedings with
congratulatory announcements of the
satisfactory increase IN their trade.
But there was nothing especially OPP
timistic In the address of the presi-
dent of the New York State Brewers
association, delivered at it's last an
nuaI convention in New York City.
It's somewhat dolorous reference to
the fact that the liquor interests were
not dealing with a theory. but with a
real condition, namely, that 100000
people in this enlightened country
have prohibited locally or otherwise
the traffic in alcoholic averages, indi-
Gated quite the contrary. The New
York Times calls attention to the fact
that President Schaefer did not for q
moment indulge In the familiar asser-
lions as to the inefficacy OF prohibit
ton. but instead. exhorted his hearers
to fight both its maintenance and its
extension by the use of only one argu-
ment an appeal to the material inter-
ests OF the producers and manufactur-
ers who sell what they raise or make
to breweries and saloons.

intemperance was a disease and a
question to be handled by the doctors.
The utterance has been widely quoted
in the liquor press as bolstering up
the arguments of the anti-prohibition-
lists. What all thinking, common
sense people ask is that the manu-
facture and sale of that which direct
ly causes this disease of intemperance
be forbidden by law. Our national
