Winslow Wins.

Last Saturday afternoon the
first gridiron battle of the sea-
son to be fought in Winslow was
staged at the race track grounds,
when Winslow met and defeated
Prescott by a score of 81 to @.
At the beginning of the game
the two teams appeared to be
quite evenly matched, but before
the first quarter was over our
boys had demonstrated the SUI
perior training they had received
under Coach Portor.
In the first quarter Winslow
kicked off to Prescott who was
downed on the 15-yard line; on
the first play LaPrade broke
through the line causing Prescott
to tumble. Parks recovered the
tumble for a touchdown and kick
ed goal. Prescott again received
the ball and Mckinley, playing
left half, showed real class with
smashing drives off tackle and
through our guard. Two for
ward passes netted Prescott sew
eral yards, but our boys held
and the ball went to them. Clev-
er executed runs by Sutton and
Sutherland took the ball to the
ten-yard line. Parks on a smash
carried the ball over, but was
brought back, Winslow being off
side. A star play came in the
second quarter when Sutton, aid
ed by good interference by Parks
Sutherland and Dunklin, carried
the ball for a second touchdown.
At the opening of the second
half Of the game Prescott kicked
to Winslow, who began a slash
ing attack with off tackle runs
and line bucks a punt terminal
ing on Prescott's fve-yard line
did much to turn the tide. Pres
cott attempted to gain on line
plays, but clever work by Hub
bard, LaPrade and Grayson stop
ped their advance. Prescott punt
ed and Dunklin returned ten
yards. Sutherland pulled off the
prettiest run of the day when he
circled the end for forty yards,
aided by perfect interference
from Parks, Sutton and Cress-
we'll. With the ball on the ten
yard line Sutherland smashed
through tackle and scored one
more touchdown. The punt out
was missed.
AS the last quarter began it
was clear that Prescott was una
BILE to fathom the beWildering
series of open and mass plays.
Our boys repeatedly gained with
Sutherland, Parks and Sutton
taking turns carrying the ball.
Two clever runs by Sutherland
were called back for offside, and
Prescott got the ball. For the
first time they were able to gain,
and with forward passes kept
Winslow on the defensive for a
time. Winslow punted, Pres
cott missing, and the ball rolled
over the line, giving Winslow a
safety and two points. Our lads
now began another march to the
goal. Sutherland made beau
tiful gain around the right end,
and Parks dashed through the
line for downs. Sutton made
thirty yards for touchdown; no
goal.

Babbitt Clerks Hold Convention

The democratic legislature did
not pass a law making it a crime
against the peace and dignity of
the state for Babbitt's clerks in
their twelve stores to hold a con-
vention, so this year the big and
growing mercantile company
held the first annual convention
of all their employees at Flagstaff
last Sunday, and so successful
was the experiment that it will
hereafter be a regular yearly
feature. The Winslow store,
under the leadership of the
manager, L. w. Quinlan, was
represented by a full delegation
of twenty. After a thorough
survey of the Flagstaff store the
visitors were driven around in
autos to the nearby points of in
terest, and in the evening ban
Quet was served at which Mr..
QuinIan presided as toast-master.
The affair throughout was a
signal success, socially and in a
business way, giving the en-
ployes an opportunity to meet one
another and exchange ideas.

Cheer Up the Lonely.

Myra Brown, "a Sherman
street, Denver, Colo, writes the
editor that she is a lonely refn-
ed lady, and wants some real
nice bachelor or widower, who is
past forty, to correspond with
her. She prefers a member of
the masonic order, but a non
member is not barred. The edi-
tor fills all the requirements, ex-
cept he is neither a widower or a
bachelor, but he is a little timid
on taking a chance, being a
strong advocate of President
Wilson's policy of peace at any
nrice.
