come and look over his stock. The
progressive merchant invites your
trade through his advertisement and

accept his invitation. A newspaper is

came off victors over the Governors

Presbyterians won every first place ex-
cept the shot put which was won by a
Ferris man.
Captain Chisholm won first places in
the one hundred and two twenty yard
dashes as usual and was followed
closely in both races by Jerry Marks
who won second in both events. Harry

having no trouble in out leaping his
competitors. Schultz, the freshman,
from Middleton, won the two-twenty
yard dash, stepping it off in fast time.
There were no hurdle races so that he
could not compete in the races in which
he shows of to the best advantage.
Gallagher ran the quarter mile race
for the first time this season in varsity
competition and experienced little diff
liculty in defeating all others.
Milton Jackson won the standing
broad jump and scored second in the
running broad jump. Chapel scored
several points in the shot and hammer
events.
Neither Garlock, the phenomenal
freshman quartermiler nor Wood
whose speciality is the discus throw
participated in the meet.
Next Saturday Alma runs up
against the Ypsilanti Normals who
have the strongest track team in their
history and who have beaten every In
tercollegiate college but Alma, this
spring The budding teachers are
hopeful Of taking the Presbyterias in
to camp also but they will have lively
time if the locals show the same form
that has marked their work during the
fast meets of this spring.
Captain Chisholm has regained his
old speed and by the time the big In
tercollegiate is at hand he will be much
faster than he has ever been in the
past, which is saying good deal.

Wednesday afternoon Alma High
School scored its eleventh straight
victory in baseball by trouncing Shep-
herd High, 3 TO 2 in one of the best
games of the season on Davis field.
Despite the cold weather, fast base
ball featured the afternoon contest
Both pitchers were in fine fettle and
except for the breaks i'm the game it
might have continued indefinitely with
honors even. Taylor who was on the
mound for Shepherd allowed seven
hits and struck out eleven men while
Highfeld the Alma twirler allowed
the same number of hits and struck
out twelve men.
Errors were the contributory causes
to all the scores made during 80
game, but these were due more to the
cold weather than to poor defensive
work. Captain Perry led the hitting
for Alma, banging out three clean
hits besides playing a superb game be-
hind the bat Mack Wood was the
originator of two hits, and Mann and
Highfeld one apiece. The locals ran
bases like veterans of years standing
securing good many stolen bases.
Several Shepherd runners were cut
down at the plate by fast throws from
the infield and outfield though there
were several close decisions.
Next Saturday Mt. Pleasant High
School will come to Alma to play a
return game with Coach Luchtmans
boys OH Davis Field. The first game
of the series resulted in a big victory
for Alma but judging from the pace
Mt. Pleasant boys have set during
their game since, Alma will have TO
play their best baseball to take this
game. However, Coach Luchtman is
putting the team through week of
hard practice and it will be no fault
Of his if the boys fail to take the game
/ by large score.

was an event that will not be easily

utors to the program were Madame
Lillian Hawkins-Jones, Mile. Jennie
Mae Hicks, vocalists, and Mrs. Claire
Smith and Miss Hazel Ames, pianists.

applause, and the general opinion eX-
pressed by music lovers and others
was that the talent exhibited was of
a high degree and marked ability

section, compelling him 10 marry

it bore evidence of Negro paren-
tage. The doctor accused the girl
of miscegenation and she confessed
that Simon Carroway, black man

was the father of her child. Car.
raway has disappeared, but the
authorities declare they will pro-
tect him, and are looking for him.
He is 35, and the head of family.

SUCCESS NOT COMPLETE
British Observers Believe Russians
Will Rally on River San.

London reports Friday that the
Russians have been pushed back
many miles, first across the Dunalec
and now across the Wisloka river,
which roughly parallels the Dunajec
fifteen miles to the east, all the dis
patches from Germand and Austrian
sources insist, but the English news
papers still refuse to concede a great
victory to the Austro-Germans, al
though they admit that great ten
tative success has been achieved.
There is great faith in England in
the recuperative powers of Russi n
arms and the disposition now seems
to be suspend judgment on the ques-
ton Of whether the Russiass, if drlv-
en- from Dukla pass, will be forced to
abandon their advance against Hun
gary and, indeed, their positions in
western Galicia.

that the Russians should have 70
trouble in holding their line on the

TURKS CLAIM VICTORY
London Apprehensiye Over German
Move in Baltic Area.

London reports Monday a late
Turkish official announcement claims
a victory near Gapa Tepeh, in the
Gallipoli peninsula, which is said to
have resulted in the retreat OF the
colonial British troops to the shelter
of their warships. This account
however, does not agree with the
British official report published sat
uprdav, which declared the British
were resuming the offensive after a
stubborn resistance on the part OF
the Turks.
Petrograd continues to assert that
the German advance toward Riga Is
only raid, but an uneasy feeling IS
growing in London that these invad-
ers are in force sufficiently strong to
seriously threaten Russian communi-
cations.
Other sectors on the eastern front
record only minor engagements,
while the western battle lines evil
IDENTIFY are taking a breathing spell
after the strenuous activity of the
last fortnight.
