The Navy eleven of 1915 isn't going
to be as "easy pickin'" as was the
1914 outfit that suffered three regular
beatings and narrowly escaped two
more.
The outlook for Uncle Sans sailor
boys this year is far brighter than it
was last year. With enough veterans
on hand to form an almost complete
varsity eleven and some very promis-
ing looking rockies" in reserve, Navy
promises to come back" with team
this year that will give every foe a
mighty battle.
The main fault of last year-lack
of a powerful team of substitutes-has
been removed this year. Nays sec
ondary machine promises to be just
about as good as it's regular varsity,
and the navy rooters won't have to
tremble in fear-as they did in 1914
when the substitutes relieve the regu-
lars.
Just now it looks as if the first
Navy team will be made up largely of
the holdover regulars and substitutes
of last year. The coaches want to
start the season with a team of sea-
soned players, and the youngsters, for
the most part, will be used only in
ergencies-unless some of them
show football skill beyond that of the
older men.
Miles, captain of the team, is a fix
ture at quarterback. He got lot of
experience in the pivot position last
year and proved himself to be cool
headed field general, clever man at
handling punts and an exceptionally
fast man in running through broken
fields.
Failing, who shone at halfback and
fullback last year, probably will be as
signed to the fullbacking job. He's a
terrific line smasher and an excep-
tionally fast man for one of his bulk.
Blodgett, whose great work last year
won him considerable mention, is a
fixture at one of the halfback posi-

CONTROL IN GOLF DIFFICULT
Condition of Course Has Much to Do
With Manner in Which Many
SkiIIful Players Play.

Greatness of play in golf in its last
analysis depends upon control of the
ball. What a master player can force
the ball to do marks the greatest feat
in golf.
With a club which measures around
three inches by ~ on it's face, and
ball which runs around 21s inches in
diameter, the expert will do wonder
full things, things which completely
battle the player of ordinary ability.
On the drive skilled players will curve
ball, undercut it so as to drop it dead
or hit it higher to cause it to drive low
and roll long after the drive has ceased
to carry. Pitching the ball on to the
ground dead to the hole is a feature
of approach play which requires ex-
traordinary skill to attain perfection
in. Putting is a delicate task and
holding" the ball so that it has no
spin that will cause it to jump over
the cup is one of the secrets of sue
cess in this.
Skillful players do not play the same
course or even the same holes the
same on different occasions. The con-
dition of the course has much to do
with this. On heavy links or where
the grass is cut short the high drive is
the thing. On sunbaked course
where distance is wanted the long, low
drive with roll is the winner. Obstruc-
lions on the course can be got around
by an expert by causing the ball tf
curve. All of this means hitting tn
ball fraction low, high or to one side
and it takes skill to do this.

Somewhere in the long ago arose
one of the many stories that had to
do with the miserliness of Tom
Sharkey, the war horse of the ring
in the earlier days of pugilism. Here
is the yarn:
Sharkey and friend were walking
along Fourteenth street in New York

Goes to Chicago.

The San Francisco baseball team
and most of the others in the Pacific
Coast league faced the opening of the
drafting season with an equanimity
born of the knowledge that nothing
much worse could befall them than
already has happened. San Francisco
thus far has sold four men and three
others are being dickered over.
Of the San Franciscans, Bobby
Jones and Harry Heilman, third and
first baseman, have been sold to the
Tigers. Walter Schmidt, catcher,
goes to the Pirates, and Roy Corhan,
shortstop, goes back to big company
by way of the st. Louis Americans.

COACHES STILL POPULAR

Former Yale football players
continue to hold their popular
ity as coaches Notwithstanding
that the Blue gridiron star has
failed to shine with it's usual
brilliancy during the last few
seasons. A canvass of the lead
ing colleges and schools of the
country has demonstrated that
the New Haven university has
more former players acting in
coaching capacities than any
one ether college or university
famous in football annals.
Among the other eastern insti-
tutions Princeton, Dartmouth,
Pennsylvania, Lafayette and Sy-
racuse are all well represented
in the coaching field. In sharp
contrast is the fact that Har-
ward and Cornell players do not
apparently devote much time to
coaching after graduation. In
the West Chicago and Michigan
lead in this respect, although
there is fair sprinkling of Min
nesota, Wisconsin, Notre Dame
and Illinois alumni on the list.

NeuU Thedter Opened

The new U. s. theater was opened last Friday evening with an exceptionally fine bill of vau- deyille and moving pictures. While the opening night had been postponed several times be- cause of delay in getting the electric machinery installed. the first performance was well pat ronized by the public, standing room being at a premium.
 For his initial show Manager Black had secured the services of Willis and Chapman. a team of vaudeville artists. and James, an expert on the piano and mar imbaphone. The work of these people was very good and it was well received by the large crowds that attended the opening night and the two succeeding evenings performance.
 In addition to the vaudeville features. three reels of pictures were shown.
 Manager Black expresses him. self as being well pleased with the patronage he has received so far, and he hopes to merit a con- tinuance of the same.

Arizona State Fair


 The State Fair Commission at their recent meeting perfected plans and program for what will no doubt be the best State Ex- position and greatest week of Sports and Amusements, ever held in Arizona.
 The dates selected this year are November -2Oth, lncIu- sive. following immediately after the closing of the great fall race meeting at San Francisco, where all the best race horses in the United States will be congregat- ed.
 They will all be seen this year at Phoenix as this is the last meeting of the year. and direct ly in their path back to their eastern winter quarters.
 The feature attraction thls year will be the S5,0O0 Arizona Grand Prix, Auto Race, to be staged on Saturday. of Fair week. This will be the longest auto race ever held on a one mile track, and will no doubt be very excit- ing as the element of danger is greatly enhanced by the small circumference of the mile oval. The damage to the track by the heavy racing cars going at such a terrific speed render it neces- sary to hold this event on the last day of the Fair.
 Hon. George Purdy Bullard. Superintendent of the auto de partment. announces that De Palma. Resta, Cooper, Oldfield. Rickenbacker. Burnam and all the great dare devil drivers in the world will be on hand thls year. This event which will be one week before the annual Cor ona Road Race, will give Ari- zona great publicity throughout the United States as the Arizona Grand Prix and the Corona Road Race are the only great auto events to be held in the west this year.
 The Far Commission have also arranged a program for a great Cowboy Tournament, Cowboy Sports being included on each day of the week, instead of two days only. as in the past. $2,- GOO. co will be offered in prizes and it is the. aim of the Fair Commission to have rodeo which will surpass anything of the kind ever held in the State.

DestructiOe Hail Storm

Last Sunday evening about 6 o'clock a hail storm struck the Snowflake valley and dld a large amount of damage. The storm continued for nearly 30 minutes; hail-stones as large as English walnuts fell in large quantities. covering the ground in places to depth of three or four inches. Fruit trees were stripped of their fruit and leaves; gardens and grain fields were ruined, and alfalfa fields were badly damag- ed. The area covered by the storm was not large, belng con- fined to the town of Snowflake and it's immediate vicinity.
 MT. Jno. R. Hulet, of the A. c. M. l., was at his home in when the storm occur red, returning to Holbrook Mon day evening. Mr. Hulet inform ed the editor of the News that, at this time, it is impossible to give an accurate estimate of the loss that will follow the storm. Many windows were broken in the town of Snowflake, and roofs of houses were damaged. Some fruit still remains on the trees but this may be so badly injured that it will be worthless.
 Such storms are unusual i'll this country, nothing like it bav- ing occurred here for several years.

Ford Expert FaDors Motor Oil
 From Western Crude


 c. T. Hobart, head of the ser vice department of the Ford Company is quoted in a recent article in the National Petroleum News as favoring an automobile oil made from an asphalt base crude.
 Our experiments were first made with oil made from Penn syIvania crude" said MT. Ho- bart. We found we had better success, however, when we used an oil made from western crude. as it does not thicken up at as low temperature.
 This opinion from an automo- bile expert is especially interest ing at this time, since it bears out the decision of the Interna- tional Jury at the Panama-P Pacific International Exposition, who awarded highest honors among automobile oils to Zerolene. an oil made from California asphalt base crude.
