TWIN FALLS TEAMS WIN
Filler Girls and Pioneer Boys Go Down
to Defeat Before Locals.

The Twin Falls high school basket
ball teams won another double-header
last Friday night when the Filler girls
and Pioneer boys were taken into
camp. Both games were really walk
aways" for the local players and once
more demonstrated that the Twin
Falls teams are of championship cali
bre.
The girls game was especially in
teresting, due to the fact that Filler
had drafted one of their teachers to
play a guard position. Miss Mable
Micklewait, who graduated from Twin
Falls high school, 1912, and captain of
the state championship team that year,
was In the Filler lineup to help stay
defeat. But even this was of no avail
and at the end of the first half the To-
cal girls had scored II points and at
the same time held Filler scoreless.
During the second half the scoring
went on at even faster pace and the
final score stood 20 to 3 for Twin
Falls. The Filler girls were held with
out a single field goal, their three
points coming from foul throws The
Twin Falls girls displayed their usual
championship form and will doubtless
make strong bid for state honors
again this year.
The boys game, while not so close
was an easy victory for Twin Falls
The Pioneer old-time aggressiveness
and accuracy in basket shooting did
not show up and the visitors were
simply Outclassed in every department
OF the game At the close of the first
half the score stood 19 to for Twin
Falls and the final score was 80 to A.
The Pioneer boys while outclassed put
up hard consistent fight and played
clean ball. They complimented the
Twin Falls boys on being the cleanest
players they had met this year.
Friday night Of this week occur
two more big games. The Wendell
boys and girls will invade Twin Falls
to add to their already long list Of vic
tories. Wendell has been playing bas-
ketball all fall and has Gooding, Sho-
shone, Jerome and Pioneer already on
their string Of scalps. The Wendell
teams promise to be the best by far
that Twin Falls has met this year. In
fact the Wendell boys beat Twin Falls
21 to Is in practice game at Wendell

give the locals a battle royal II not a

some OF the stately old-fashioned
dances of ye olden time. Beautiful
danes In the flowing dresses of the
colonial period passed in review of the
spectators on the arms of courtly col
onlal gallants of the knee breeches

minuet and lancers and the slow
gliding waltzes Repeated applause
was given the ladies and gentlemen
who donned costumes to help make
the occasion a success.

Professor Davies of Spokane, deliver
his lecture In the Lyric theater on Or
chard Pests and Their determination.
Prof. Davies Is considered one Of
the most expert horticulturists in the
northwest and has been instrumental
In formulating many of the remedies
for the prevalent orchard pests. His
lecture, which was largely attended,
dealt for the most part with technical
treats of the pests put into terms that
could be easily understood and which
will prove of untold benefit to the or
i chardists here who are just beginning
to need the aid in combating the des-
tructive tree pests and diseases. The
Times will at an early date, If possi-

Treasurer Sampson of the Northwest
Pacific Distributors, and Field Man
ager Yost in the evening were the
principal speakers at q large gathering
in the Commercial club rooms to talk
over problems of the producer and
the association Mr.. Sampson is a
very fluent speaker and spoke earn
estly on the need for cooperation
among the farmers and the commun-
ity to get results worth while to both.
He spoke at some length of the aims
of the Distributors in bringing re-
suits to the producer. The question
which has agitated the local CONNER
cial club on account Of the labels put
on the apple boxes the past year in
which too much credit was given to
Payette and too little to Twin Falls
as the producing district was also
treated very fairly by Mr.. Sampson.
He stated that this year no stenciled
labels would be used and that care
would be taken to give the locality more
prominence than given last year al
though the address of Payette as
sub-central station must Of necessity
appear on the boxes here. The ques-
tion Of buying boxes locally was fav-
orably discussed and the matter prac-
tically left to the discretion OF w. s.
Starr and M. J. Higley.

WTSCONSIN'S BONING
 LAW CALLED SUCCESS

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 25--"BoX- ing under the control of the state Athletic commission had reached its highest standard" said W. H. Lig- inger, chairman of the commission in presenting his annual report to- day. Tt has also demonstrated that the commission is more than self sustaining. The state derives almost $14,OOO fom this department for the year"
 The commission eXacts 3 per cent of the gross. receipts Of each boxing match held under it's direc- tion. Expenses of the body, includ- ing the secretary's salary are not allowed to amount to over $3,OO0 per annum. The state therefore is en- riched by about $11,O0O through its control of this branch of athletics.
 Last year, boxing clubs held l32 matches in Wisconsin, averaging four bouts to the show. Ten boxers were suspended or barred from the state during the twelve months, Among these was Packey Mcfarland who was adjusted guilty Of stalling.

ALLIES CENTER IN BELGIUM
 Paris. August 25-That the Ger mans have broken the allied armies center in Belgium is now believed To be certain by those who are in position to know, and it is also rmmorcI that last nights advices from the front, confirm the news ,r the occupation of the unrorrined town of Nancy by the Germans.
 According 10 the war offices an- nuuucements ere today there have been more casualties piled up in to- days fighting than during any Stug- gle that has taken place between the allies and Germany since the invasion Of Belgium by the latter. At many points the allies dercn- >iye wall was broken down by the Gcrmuns but rc-inforcemcntS would invariably fill the gap, while in other places the Germau'S infantry Was compelled to retire. The fight ing on both sides was desperate, but the most EanguinaTy and dce+- per-atc of all was that which took place about half way between Brussels and Mons.

ALASKA BOY TO
GET FIRST VIEW

George Herring, a 17-year-old Fairbanks boy, who graduated from Fairbanks high school last spring will matricuIate at the University of Washington as a law student with the coming year. He has spent 15 years of his 17 in Alaska and Yu- kon Territory, having come north with his parents from Seattle when only two years of age.
 Speaking of the coming experience of George Herring, the Fairbanks News-Miner says:
 Georges ideas of the outside world have been obtained altogeth- CT from reading, hearsay and last, but not least, from the educational pictures of the movies. He has never seen street car, an ocean steamer, a modern railway, a uni yersity or a Webb Perfecting press printing 6O,OOO complete 16 pages i an hour. There are hundreds of novel sights for him, most of which he knows about or has witnessed produced on picture screens or in magazines, but which he has never actually seen It will be a wonderful trip for him and when he walks down second avenue some evening in the near future when it is white with the glow of hundreds of cleo uric signs and globes and he has to elbow his way through the crowds that throng the sidewalks, he will get a surprisingly new view of life"
 George Herring is a nephew of State Senator W G. Potts, part owner and manager of the Arling- ton hotel, Seattle,
