Local Paragraphs.

The McGoldrick Lumber COM
pany has completed its logging
operations on the Rimrock bench

last season, and it is said the saw
mill at the foot of the lake will be
in operation again next spring.
A St. Valentine program was
given by the seniors of the high
school last Friday afternoon. A
number of visitors were present.
Valentines were distributed to all
the students of the high school.
The good sleighing that has
been enjoyed in this vicinity for
several weeks is reported getting
thin on the railroad crossings and
on the roads west and south of
town.
About seventeen members of
Twin Lakes Local No. 46, farm
ers' union, enjoyed a sleigh ride to

eral good time enjoyed by all.
The Red Cross Locals won the

nasium last Friday night, defeat
ing the CGur d'Alepe college team
by score of 10 to "a. The game,

y The resignation Of Capt. Nc
Cubrey creates vacancy again in

much drilling done if the company
is to pass the inspection March "A.
There are plenty of young men if
they could be encouraged and
induced to enlist, and Colonel
Edelblute is optimistic enough to
believe the company can be kept
if everybody interested would get
in and boost.

Tuesday by G. r. Klopf to be

MAJOR LEAGUES WILL
NOT STICK TO RULE

New York, Dec. 30.-lt still appears
highly improbable that the major
leagues will stick to any twenty-one-
limit player rule. This would allow
for eight pitchers. four catchers, five
iniiclders and four outnelders. This
would seem to DE enough men to play
out a season with, and so it is; but
how about following seasons?
A big league player does not come
up from the minors ready made. He
has n lot to learn and requires care
full schooling. Managers such as Nc
GraW prefer to keep youngsters on
the bench n couple of years before
sending them to the firing line as
regulars. First Of all, they want the
recruits to get the feel Of the big
show. Playing before a small crowd
on 4 small field is quite different to
playing before thousands in L modern
stadium.
Young infielders and outfielders
must learn where to play for various
batters. They must learn which op-
ponents are speedy and which are
slow. With this comes the Judgment
of where to throw the ball on hurried
plays and the power to cut off many
runs in the course OF Il season. Pitch
ers and catchers must be taught the
weaknesses Of the batters Base rum
ners must know just how much Of a
lead it is safe to take on each
moundsman. When teams are cut
down to actual playing strength. there
Is no room for future talent, and the
source from which the stars of to-
morrow may be expected to arise is
cut off,

SHUCRUE BESTS
CHARLIE White
Jersey City Lad Given Bet
ter of Fight by News
paper Men.

New York. Dec. S0.-Joe Shugrue
of Jersey City. outfought Charlie
White OF Chicago in ten-round bout
at Madison Square garden last night.
Shugrue had the better of seven
| rounds. Ringside weights were, Shu-
grue 1884,, White 1907.
1t was a clean fast fight. Shugrue
forced the pace nearly all the way,
while White, during the early rounds,
was cool and seemingly confident. He
met Shugrue's rushes with snappy left
hooks and right counters, but he de-
pended mainly on his left hand.
Shugrue Jabs.
Shugrue shot jab after jab to the
face and White retaliated with left
hooks and short right crosses, one of
which cut Shugrue's nose in the open
ing round.
Although honors were even in the
fourth, in the fifth, sixth and seventh
Joe forced the fighting and frequently
blocked Whites returns cleverly.
White Aggressive.
In the eighth the Chicago lad show
ed responsiveness and sent in some
hard blows. This was Whites best
round. Shugrue kept up his jabbing
tactics in the ninth. having the best
of this session.
The final round was full OF fast
work by both men. White took the
honors of that round in hurricane
style.

LAWYERS AND LAWMAKERS.

In 1903 Thomas Jefferson, then
president of the United States, wrote
this: II served with General Wash
ington i'll the legislature Of Virginia,
before the revolution, and during it
with DR.. B. Franklin in congress. And
l never heard either of these men
speak ten minutes at tine,. nor to
any but the main point. which was to
decide the question. They laid their
shoulders to the great points, knowing
that the little ones would follow Of
themselves. If the present congress
crrs in too much talking. how can
1t be otherwise in body to which
the people send $50 lawyers, whose
trade it is to question everything, yield
nothing and talk by the hour?"

Baltimore, Nd, Dec. 2S.-Consider-
ing his great work in the ring and
since winning the bantamweight
championship, Kid Williams has made
remarkably few friends 1t is hard
to account for this. According to all
precedent, the Baltimore Viking
should have the tistic world at his
feet, for he is the only champion who
is doing any real fighting worth men
tioning.
In the ring Williams takes all sorts
OF chances He has more fighting
ability to tho square inch than any
other boxer of today OF any degree or
class. When he jumps through the
ropes he seems to forget that he has
a title to lose. Instead of playing safe,
his one object is to land crusher
with the Very least delay possible. And
the number of times he succeeds is
really remarkable when it is consitl-
cred that he is member of the light
est class.
AS a rule the percentage OF knock.
outs varies according to the size of
the men engaged. The heavyweights,

tertlay.
No Sport for Wcaklings.
DIR. George w. Ehler of the Univer-
sity Of Wisconsin, chairman of the
committee, in the report said that the
association should go on record to
point out the dangers of the game
that exist for those who are physical
ly unfit, either because of age. weak
ness or lack Of training. He urged
that all candidates for teams submit
to L rigid medical and physical exam
ination and the strict supervision of
players. both in practice and the play
ing OF regular games.
Investigation by the commission,

cause of an outcry against the game

not be maintained and the sensation

or the thirteen players reported to
have died during 1914 from the re-
suits OF participation in football games
or of practice. Or. Ehler said that
only three Of these were college men
and that only one was member of Il
regular varsity team. All other deaths
reported he said. were of boys on
high school, athletic club and irrcgu-
lar teams.
"One of these deaths among the
boys" DIR. Ehler said. occurred as
the result Of blood poisoning from a
scratch received on the arm in a
game. So far as can he learned this
boy was the only well trained and fit
athlete of the ten non-college men
who have died from football.

Tho results OF last season only en-
phasize that which all college men
have insisted upon from the first
that no one should participate in foot
ball who is not physically AT in every
respect. and then only after he has
had proper training and has learned
to adjust himself to the conditions
arising from the game
DIR. Ehler said that it was a cardi-
nal principle in college athletics that
no student should be permitted to par
ticipate in football or any other com
petitive athletics without a prelimln-
airy medical examination to protect
the individual against unsuspected or
ganic weaknesses
