WILL BUILD
INDIAN SCHOOL
PIsns and Specifications Now lie Hands
of lsdian Agent James
]. ConkIin
THIRTY CHILDREN OF SCHOOL ACE
New School Will Be Near Indian
Mission Church

James ]. Conklin, acting Indian
Agent in charge of The local tribe
of Kootenai Indians, received
notice Monday from the Depart
ment of Indian Affairs to the effect
that an Indian day school would
be established here and that bids
would be solicited from local con-
tractors.
The plans and specifications are
now in the hands of Agent Conklin
but will be returned to the Depart
ment on January Doth.
The site for the new school has
been selected and consists of two
and half acres, owned by the
estate of Tamia Abraham, located
hundred yards north of the
Mission Catholic church. The
dimensions of the school will be 80
by "a feet and the plans call for a
strictly modern building and equip
ment. 1t is estimated that the
site and new buildings planned will
cost the government about S. 900.
Agent Conklin states that there
are about 80 Indian children OF
school age residing in this vicinity
and that most of the older Indians
{ highly favor the plan of sending
/ their children to the school. On
drawback for the school is the fac
E that during the spring and fal
o months of the year many of tn
r Indian children live with thei
y parents from 10 to II miles ava
from the Mission on their variou
allottments.
Agent Conklin states that
1 similar building is to be erected fe
q the Kalispel Indians at Cusicl
n Wash. and that local contractor
a may put in bids for the two built
n ings if they so desire.

RELAY CARNIVAL
Red and Blue Team Likely
TO Fight II Out With Ok
ford Runners in Big Event

Pennsylvania relay races THIS
afternoon will bring together the
greatest lot Of college athletes that
has ever been seen on one athletic
field. The question in the minds of
thousands Of Philadelphians is what
will Penn do against this great array
Of talent. Pennsylvania holds the
intercollegiate track team champion
ship OF America, and she viii be ex-
pected to maintain her supremacy I'm
this branch of sport. Pennsylvania
should be able to do this unless the
series of hard luck which has struck
the team continues. PENNSYLVANIA
VIII be better represented IN the relay
championships than any other col
lege. In the two-mile race Pennsyl-
vania has no chance, but IN the four
mile race Penn will have one OF the
very best teams that has ever been
put out by any American college.
McCurdy, Madeira, Bacon and Lang
ner are all good mile runners.
Whether they will be able to defeat
the Oxford team no one can tell This
viii depend greatly upon the ability
OF Gaussen and Sproule 10 run the
mile distance. They are both great
three-mile runners and II they can
beat 4 minutes 80 seconds, the oxford
team should win, but otherwise.
Pennsylvania would have chance.
In the special events Pennsylvania
also expects TO do well. In the shot
put Dorizas, the Greek athlete, may
be able to get a place, though he will
be opposed to the greatest field Of
shotputters that have ever been seen
IN college competition. In the discus
Dorizas Is almost a sure winner. as
he should do over 13O feet. He should
also do we'll in the iavelin throw.
though this IS a new event for him.

HIT AND RUN
WON FOR Chicks
Did Trick Not Lost Art by
Any Means to the
Chicks
SOME MANAGERS
BAN THE PLAY

While the hit-and-run play is often
Bsed in baseball. it is really a lost
art Nowadays when the hit-and-un
IS successful the batter usually comes
through with a clean-cut safe line
arive for one or more bases. which
when the play is pulled off as it
should be. is next 20 impossible. Hit
lnd-run requires a scientific batter,
says an exchange His object Is to
shove the ball toward the direction
which the infelder has vacated in
Drder to cover the bag toward which
he runner had started. II might be
he second baseman OF the shOrtstOp.
The batter is supposed TO so place the
ball that n the inhelder can reach
Il at all he has TO cover enough
ground 10 make a double play impos-
riblc, and nine times out of ten, II
Be manages TO throw the batter out
A. first the play has succeeded in
moving up the base runner.
There is a chance for the ball roll
hg safe. but the double play Is alb
tOiutely eliminated. But Il IS but
seldom that one sees the hit-and-run
play worked In this way. Nowadays
The batter gives the runner the sign
20 start, and then he takes a wallop
n the ball Sometimes a three-base
hit results, on which the runner could
have scored, even II he had not start
fd TO advance, but more often a high
Hy goes up. and when the play is
luccessful IL is because the batter
gets tho ball into safe territory. Con-
seding that baseball has advanced in
many respects there Is no doubt that
he teams of few years back were
more adept at the hit-and-run game
han they are today.
The Chicks played the old hit-and-
run game all last season and grab
