IOWA CITY, Iowa, Nov. 16-
Further changes in lineup over the
combination which was used against
Northwestern ars apparent this week
as Coach Jones prepares his Hawk
eyes for the state championship
against Ames next Saturday.
Reed, characterized as the best
member of the freshman squad last
year, has bacrled his way to per-
manent berth on the varsity. He
was kept down the first part of the
season only by the fact that he was
understanding Captain Laun, but his
aggressiveness and nerve. in spite of
the fact that lie is one of the light
est men on the squad, have resulted
in his being moved by james from
second choice right end to first
choice man Cor the left wing. Reed
has played in every game this year,
and has wor6ed up from the third
team to the second and finally to
the regulars.
With Reed at lefs. end, Triplett has
been moved in to left tackle position
and Mckee mas been put on the Sec
ond team. In practice this week the
new combination has been working
well and in all probability the men

Trainer Jack Watson is successful in
putting him in condition, and Jack
says MendenhalI will be ready to
play if Jones wishes to call on him.
Duncan, however, has been perform
ing.in rare form in recent games and
will probably start in the left half
position. Laun is improving in physi-
cal condition and with proper caution
this week will probably be able to
last the entire game against the
Mayser combination.
Coach Jones has said that from
now on there will be little hard
scrimmage for his eleven, as he be-
lieves that the good to be obtained
from scrimmage work so late in the
season is very limited. The men
will practice interferences, forward
passing, and new offensive forma-
lions, plays, and tricks. Continued
cold weather will mean that the for
ward passing on Saturday will be
interfered with, mas
much as it g impossible to hurl

London, May What seemingly
is a new great offensive, with its OBJ
ject the capture of Verdun, has been
launched by the Germans north east
of that fort.
The French officially admit that be-
tween Haudremont and Douaumont,
the Germans have entered the French
first line trenches for nearly third
of mile, and that northwest of Yer
dun the Germans have penetrated the
French underground passageways.
Except for few yards of trenches,
however, the French declare the Ger
mans have been driven out with heavy
casualties.
Both German attacks were deliver
ed after heavy bombardments. Aside
from this, there have been only the
usual heavy bornbardnents at other
points on the French-B Belgian front.
Berlin stated that Russian torpedo
boats Intellectually shelled German
positions on the northern coast of
Courland. In Galicia the Russians
have made further advance against
the Teutons while along the Black
Sea, the Russians have repulsed Turk
ish attacks, the Turks retreating with
heavy losses.
Except for small infantry encount-
ers which Rome claims resulted in
the Italians favor, there have been
only bombardments along the italian
front. Germany announces that an
allied transport was recently sunk in
the Mediterranean by mine with six
hundred Russians aboard.

Three Of Latter Killed and
the Remainder Severely
Wounded.
BOY is KILLED, TWO
CITIZENS KIDNAPPED
Believed Mexicans Were
From Carranza Garrison
Across Border.
= AssocrArrp PRESS.


e Paso, Texas, May Mexican
bandits, supposed to be Villa follow
ers, Friday night raided and looted
BoquiTlas, Glen Springs and Deemers,
Texas, and killed three American
soldiers, according to report today
to General Funston from Major o. B.
Meyer, Of the Fourteenth cavalry at
Maria, Texas.
A ten year old boy was also killed
and two American citizens were car
ried across the border, according to
later reports which, however, threw
some doubt as to whether the BAN
dts had any connection with Villa.
The raid was made Friday night
and early Saturday through the south
ern limits of Brewster county, in Big
Bend districts of Texas, taking in
three little settlements near the Dor
der, Glen Springs, Boquillas and
Deemers.
It Is reported also that six Ameri-
can soldiers were wounded. General
Funston Immediately ordered two
troops Of the Eighth cavalry from
Fort Bliss and two troops of the
Fourteenth cavalry from Fort Clark
and the raided districts to reinforce
small detachments already enroute
there from Alpine and other points,
and It was said here that If neces-
sary, troops will cross the border to
run down the marauders. Mean
while the conference between Scott
and Oregon was given over to talk
about the raid today, and later 0bre-
gon was understood to have tele-
graphed to Carranza about the raid.
THE SOLDIERS KILLED.
Privates Coloe, Rogers and Cohen,
Of Troop A Fourteenth cavalry, were
the soldiers killed, while the boy was
a SON of C. G. Compton.
The bandits crossed the border and
attacked nine soldiers composing the
patrol The Americans fought from
a hut from eleven o'clock at night
until dawn. Then the hut caught
fire, three being killed and all severe
" wounded, they retreated.
Later a posse of citizens started
after the bandits and is still on their
trail, as far as is known. The ban
dts, however, had raided the towns
before the posse got after them and
took two men with them, apparently
across the border, where it is believed
they killed them. The fact that the
marauders shouted viva Carranza as
well as viva Villa, and that a small
Carranza garrison, just across from
Glen Springs, has been missing for q
week, led to report that they might
have been Caranza soldiers.
It is reported that Governor Fergu-
son has ordered Texas militia to hold
themselves in readiness to go to the
border. It is unknown whether the
posse of citizens crossed the border
There are no definite reports as to
the number of bandits, though it was
said about seventy Of them attacked
the American soldiers, while esti-
mates of their number ranged as high
as five hundred. They carried of
their dead and wounded an much
loot. It Is unknown how many were
killed. Private Tyree, who took part
in the fight, is still missing.
