WHY DE PALMA ALWAYS
 OBEYS 4. 4. l. RULINGS
Learned to Be Good Sport When Still in His Bike Racing Age; Is the
 Greatest Driver Now.

Ralph De Palma is. perhaps. one of the squarest automobile racing drivers who ever steered car Ralph got into the racing game a score of years ago. when he won a bicycle race at Buffalo. and with the proceeds he paid for the mount which he pedalled to victory
 He learned his lesson. with regard to squareness, in one of his first motorcycle races, the first contest. in fact. which was run by the Fedora ton of American Motorcyclists at the old Manhattan Beach track of Long Island back in 1903. In that meet Ralph ran under false colors, donuing the jersey, hat and goggles of an other rider, only to be disqualified and suspended. His suspension. which lasted several years aIld which kept him out of not only motorcycle con tests but automobile and bicycle con tests as well. was a bitter pill to the then young speed artist, and it like wise cost him a pretty penny. But he learned his lesson, and not since that time has Ralph De Palma done thing deserving of even a repri- mand from a race referee.

.DNEYS OLD AID NEW
 RETURN FROM MIAMI

Old Dokeys and new Dokeys. and all of them tired Dokeys, returned last evening from a trip to Miami where, on Saturday night forty five Tyros were initiated into the mys- terjes of the dramatic order Knights of, the Khorassan. one of the most remarkable features of the entire trip was the return of Wesley HilL who, while he seemed to have a dreamy, far-away expression, was still able to manipulate the steering wheel of one of his big Globe, Phoe- nix stage line cars which carried over and brought back part of the Phoenix contingent This man Hill drove over a Tyro and returned a Notary, which is going some, con- sidering that generally the Sisters hospital or some other samaritanic institution has it's hands full for a week or so after one of these cere- monials.
 Just what happened over in Miami will never find it's way into print. Had the Gods been kind the editor of The Republican Lodge Lore col umn would have been one of the victims of this latest outrage perpe- trated under the guise of fraternaI- lsnI and then. had he survived, The Republican reporters would have been fully apprised of all that hap pened. Just as soon as the Lodge Lore man gets his accident insurance policies all strengthened up and pays Imperial Nawab Cisney what he owes him, he is going to make an other try at getting into the secrets of the order and then there will be something doing in the Lodge Lore columns
 For the present, however the pub lie, unless Dokeys can be considered part of the public. must remain in darkness as to what really trans pires behind the doors of Dokey tenn pies on ceremonial nights.

ing up in shape for the big con- flict.
 When Coach Peter Venne of the Indian eleven, three weeks ago can celled the scheduled game because Schaeffer Of the Normal wanted some other umpire and referee than best suited his notion, the possibility of these two teams doing battle once more this season looked slim. The pedagogues were considerably put out, too, and after failing to make connections for a Thanksgiving game with which to close the season, their ill feelings gave way to more peeVe. But on Turkey day while Schaeffer was in Phoenix. Venne was encoun- tered, the NormaTs challenge was accepted and then and there McKale of the L. of A. was selected as ref cree for the game.
 It is probable that next Saturdays game in Tempe will be the last to be played in the valley this season. unless, as Schaeffer hinted today, some other eleven accepts a chaI- lenge from the Normal.
 Tempe NormaTs last game was played just three weeks ago tomor- row with the Northern Arizona Nor nal team, and during the time that has intervened the team members have deviated but slightly from con sistent training and practice. In con- sequence, it will be double duty for every man this week, hard practice every night and the very strictest training rules will be observed. Adams, the pedagogues husky half back is out of the game temporarily and whether he will be in shape or not by Saturday is hard to deter mine. One or two otber men are also under the weather. but Schaef- fer figures that he can put out the seasons strongest squad and that with the student body and the bank back of him he can go through the Indians for seasons end victory

Ninth Inning Triple By Chick Puts East Erders Run to Good; Harry
 WestfaI's Long Homer.

In one of the most exciting finishes seen in an amateur ball game in many weeks, the Acre City team Walloped the local Outlaws on the Polk street grounds yesterday after noon. Chick, one of the visitors poled out a triple in the first of the ninth, with one on. and scored the winning run of a ST score.
 Finley WestfalI, pitching for the locals, was met for bingles, some of them good. solid wallops that meant runs. Harry WestfaIl. catcher for the Outlaws, secured the longest home run of the season. in the seventh, when he spanked the ball clear out of the lot, and scored with one ahead of him.

the majority of prairie farmers are ot American birth.
 The water flowing from the Can adlan Pacitic's plant at Bassano, 83 miles east of Calgary, Alberta, through irrigation ditches, waters three million acres of now highly fertile land. The face of the south ern half of Alberta, a great Canadian province, has been changed, for bar ren pralries, where but a few wears ago everybody despaired of growing anything abundantly, literally "blos- som like the rose"
 The enterprise, which was under way three years, was practically completed with the finishing of the great dam across the Bow River at BassanO in the Province of Alberta. Only one other similar undertaking m North America approaches 1t in extenJ-tnat is the Roosevelt Dam and irrigation project in Arizona. OnIy one other work of the kind in the world is bigger-that is the great Assouan Dam in Lower Egypt.
 In the Canadian work 5000 men have been laboring constantly for three years. A battery of steam shOvels, hundreds of concrete ma chimes, 2,000 teams, a corps of engi- neers and survey men. hundreds of freight cars for supplies and ma terial. have been employed.
 Altogether more than S17,0O0.OOO has been spent to turn the territory into a rich agricultural district.

Among it's officers and members are l.. w. Jaycox and II. r. Wilky, both of Phoe- nix.
 A special meeting of the student body has been called to elect a de- batting manager. It is imperative that this manager be elected at once, for arrangements are completed for the University of Arizona University of Southern California debate. Intercol- | legiate debating is going to mean much
 for Arizona, and its success will lie to great extent with the manager elected.
