BASEBALL BOWLING OTHER SPORTS
INDIANS TO
PLAY GREAT GAME
Much Interest Being Shown
in Next Game at Nor
gantown. -

MoRGANToWN, Oct. 1.-THE re-
ceipt Of further information in regard
to the Carlisle Indian football team
which plays here on Saturday strength.
ems the prevailing local belief that the
Redskins will give West Virginia fully
as hard aibattle on the gridiron as did
Pittsburgh and the Navy. Data just
received here shows that the Indians
made over thirty first downs against
the strong F. & NJ. team at Lancaster
last Saturday and the fact that Captain
Ribbetts and Leroy, Carlisle half
backs, did most OF the gaining through
sweeping end runs aided by powerful
interference by both the linemen and
other backs, makes 1t imperative for
coaches Tobin and McIntire to develop
% the highest point OF efficiency their
defense against end runs.
1t is not believed that Carlisle will
be able to successfully execute forward
passes against West Virginia. West
Virginia possesses in King. Rodgers,
Harris and Lentz three skillful defend.
ers against this mode of attack, and
then, too, Carlisle. in her earlier games
does not seem TO have relied upon this
method of attack for gaining ground,
Prefering rather to follow the old Car.
Isle system. the chief and most sue
cessful points of which are a smash
ing series OF off.tackle plays from close
formation and sweeping end runs from
kick formation. Glenn Warner, pres.
ent Pitt coach, tutored the Redskins
at Carlisle for ten years or more and
while he was there he developed to per-
lection the system which he is still
en- ploying at Pitt and which the In.
dams have retained under Leo Harris.
the present coach at Carlisle, who, by
the way, is Warner protege. In lie.
Roy. Carlisle has halfback whom all
critics who have seen Carlisle play be.
lieve will prove to be one of the best
nj the long series of famous backs the
Indian school has turned out. Frank
Mount Pleasant, who coached at West
Virginia Wesleyan in 1914 was one of
the best known VI Warmers Carlisle
PRODUCTS. Then there was Jim Thorpe.
the great all.round athlete who won so
much fame at the Olympic games, and
Guyon, Carlow and scores OF others
who in their day were the best grid
iron performers the fall sport coulo
boast. If Leroy comes up to the ex-
FGctations OF those who have seen him
riay this year and equals the fine rec.
crds of these men, then West Virginia
will certainly have to be on her guard
for Saturday.
The West Virginia team will be in
better shape for the Saturday encoun-

ter than had at first been hoped. Mere.
9Th, the Fairmont boy, who has been
I laying such a steady game at guard,
and whom it was believed would not be
able to play against the Indians, will
lie ready to take his place on the initial
kickoff according to announcement to-
cay. This leaves both Singleton and
Weimer available for Harrick's tackle
position if it is decided at the last
minute not to take the chance Of as.

DOUBLE BILL AT WVU
AT MORGANTOWN
FsirmOnt High Will Play in
University Town on
Saturday.

Tairmont people who go TO Nor.
gantown for the football game satur-
day have q double dose Of the great
fall game, inasmuch as Fairmont
High will play Morgantown High at
the University athletic field in the
morning and West Virginia will meet
the famous Carlisle Indians on the
same field in the afternoon.
Tickets for the Carlilse-West Viz.
gtnia game were placed on sale here
at Martins News stand Tuesday and
q large number have already been
disposed Of. The pasteboards are 90.
Ing at $1.00 each for the best reserved
seats and standing room on the day
OF the game will go at the same price.
30 there has been considerable slim
illus in the buying. The fact. too.
that the High school game will be
played in the morning making it de.
sirable to go down on the Penna
train at 7:15 a. m. draws attention
away from the fact that there is no
train service in the afternoon from
Fairmont to Morgantown.
Returning the train service is good
IS both the B. & o. and Pennsylvania
have regular trains arriving here
shortly after nine o'clock from the
University town. Many will drive
from here II the roads remain in good
condition.

TACT that Carlisle is exceptionally

a fire on Sunday evening last week.

ten o'clock the came night. A
brother, John Friday, and his hired
man had gone over to the farm early
in the evening to do the chores and
it was while they were in the barn
that they heard the cracking noise of
the burning house. When they look.

the house was completely enveloped
in flames. Nothing could be saved,
but they managed to pull to a safe
distance two wagon loads of coal that
were standing close to the burning

self out they were busy saving the
barn and other nearby buildings. The
home was partly covered by insurance,
but the loss on valuable contents, in
Guiding money and papers cannot be
replaced. How the fire got started
remains a mystery.

tor for the State of North Dakota.
Judge N. c. Young of Fargo, has
been received and the executive COM
mittee is already at work dividing the

by the committee, directors will be
appointed in the different centers of
the county and the work of organic
ing will be taken up.
The organizations already formed.
or in the process of formation will be
absorbed into the county chapter,

The state supreme court last FRI
day handed down a decision in a case
that had been appealed as a test case
from Ransom county which upholds
the teachers retirement fund law of
North Dakota. The authorities of
Ransom county in order to test the
constitutionality of the new law had
refused to pay over the ten cents per
pupil levy for this fund and the mat
ter was accordingly taken to the
courts. Awaiting the outcome of the
decision a number of counties over
the state have been holding up the
levy which will now be paid in at
once. The work of the trustees of
the fund has been somewhat hindered
but they have always expressed them.
selves confident as to the outcome.

THREE SONS "DOING THEIR BIT

Charles Lothspeich, residing north
of Langdon, has three sons who are
responding to the call for service of
Uncle Sam in the present war. His
oldest son. Charles Lothspeich, Jr.,
is head sergeant of Co. E., a young.
er son, Ben, was one of the first
Langdon boys to step into the ranks

L%othspeich, who is at home on the
farm holds a serial number in the
draft made July Goth and will be on

former residents of I%Illinois, ranks
among the most patriotic Americans
of this community. Another Cava.
lier county family, the Slamas, resid.
ing between O%snabrock and Milton +,
have three sons whose serial numbers
of the June registration have drawn
places in the draft that subjects
them to the examination. There il
