MARION FOOTBALL
 SEASON OPENS TODAY


 Marion, September 23.-(speciai) )--The Marion institute football team opens the season tomorrow with game on the col- iege field against the Tuscaloosa High school
 The visitors are reported to be a speedy and brainy set of pigskin artists, who have developed remarkable form under the skilled coaching of vandeGraaff of Alabama fame. It is expected that the teams will be evenly matched in weight and . close and exciting game is ex- pected.
 Coach Clarkson has large number of new men on the squad this fau and he reports that much has to be done in teaching the new candidates the funda- mentais of the game. The fact that 50 many men are now inexperienced men and that a number of injuries have crippled the squad is leading to some apprehension regarding the final score tomorrow

PROSPECTS GREAT
 FOR CENTRAL HIGH
Material Plentiful-Over 40 Men in Coach Pritchard's
 Football Squad

Central High school football squad he'd their first hard workout of the season yesterday afternoon in East park. Over 40 students reported.
 The prospects of winning il for Cen tral High grow each day. Although seri- ously handicapped by the absence of old men from the lineup. Coach Pritchard intends to put one of the best high school teams in the state on the gridiron. Of the o candidates. 15 are back field mon.
 The back field promises to be a fea- ture of the Crimson machine. With Cap tain Goodall and DorslSey from last year s eleven and an abundance of new ma terial Coach Pritchard Is hopeful of pro- ducing back field that will be even stronger than that of last year. In Bill Although light. he is fast man and quick to act. He is practically assured of a regular berth. Roberts. Barker and Kelly are three mon who possess speed. Kelly is probably the best of the trio and odds favor last years star end to earn place at halfback. Numerous others show signs of experience. but from the above six it is practically assured that the regular backfield will be selected. The weight of the backfeA will average about 15o pounds.
 On the line Coach Pritchard is sure to have a strong factor, both on Sne offen- sive and defensive. Hall Is showing good form and will undoubtedly be regular center. At guards, McPhall, last year s man. is showing good form. while Putnam and Craig, also veteran, are receiving favorable mention. Rox, Herzog and Self are fighting 1t out for the tackles, which is considered the weak spot. At ends. the candidates are numerous and promising.
 The followers of Central High may rest assured that one of the best teams that ever represented the high school on the gridiron will be seen in action this sea- son.

We should not be too selfish in
trying to decide this question. Cit
les like ours depend for trade and
prosperity to large extent upon the
development and prosperity OF the
surrouding country. The Light and
Power Company In building their
transmission line or system, are
reaching out to the farm and ranch
lands providing service 10 these dis
tricts. BY furnishing cheap and
convenient power for pumping they
are helping to reclaim land which II
has not been possible to irrigate
before. In some places the water
Is being pumped from the under
ground supply; In others 1t is being
lifted from canals to the land above
them. Electric power is also being
used in many ways on the farm to
tighten labor. and reduce the expens-
es OF farming. This service is ca
gerly sought by the farmers and

dicament OF increasing the existing
rates In order to make both ends
meet or to avoid appealing to the
taxpayers for aid.
There is no need for this uncertain
~ as TO the facts. The State Public
Utilities Law was made for this very
purpose. among others This law
fixes regulation as the official poll
cy of Colorado toward utility corpor-
Ations. II gives the Public Utilities
Commission full authority over the
rates. service and other conditions
Of the corporations. and full power
TO conduct expert Investigations in
which the corporations must open
their books and records. II there is
doubt over the reasonableness OF the
cost of electric light and power ser
vice. the Utilities Commission stands
ready TO learn the facts and to re-
duce the rates II they are too high.
Why should We spend $4,000 to
satisfy ourselves that We are getting
the lowest possible electric rates
when we have State Commission
standing ready TO do this for US at
comparatively little, II any. eS-
pense! This course is certainly less
hazardous and less expensive than
mortgaging the city for $4,000 to
build a duplicate and unnecessary
electric building. The majority OF
states now regulate their utilities
Just as Colorado Is beginning to do.
