FOOTBALL POINTERS
COLLEGE GAMES

New York. Nov One of the
Srangest features Of the present East
ern college football season is the spec
tacle of the United States Naval and
Military Academies turning out the
strongest elevcns in several seasons
while much larger institutions are I'M
able to support teams according to Of
hclal statements, owing to the pressure
OF war work among the students. In
der normal conditions the Sailors and
Soldiers have but scanty time for
Sridron training as compared with the
periods devoted to football work by the
average college and university squad.
That the two academies should be able
to put such powerful combinations on
the field as those which represent the
Army and Navy this season is little
short of remarkable.
That such is the case. however il
amply proved by the records for the
season up to the close of the month of
October. In this period Of about five
weeks of play the Middies have run up
total of 239 points in five games and
lead all the other eastern elevens in
this respect by a comfortable margin,
The Cadets have not been quite so ac-
tive in this respect being tied with the
University of Pennsylvania for fifth
place.
The Navy also possesses in Ingram
the best individual scorer to date
among the teams of the same section
Ingram has collected 105 points as his
contribution to the success Of the Mid
dies eleven. His nearest competitor.
strange to say. is Oliphant of the Army
who has scored SIS iptc II h.
these cases the scores were made
through touchdowns and goals from
touchdowns alone. In all round scor-
ing McCrei2ht of ellington and JEFF
ferson and Meehan of Syracuse are the
leaders. McCreight has scored four
touchdowns; six goals from touch
downs and four field goals Meehan
has collected four touchdowns. seven
goals from touchdouns and two field
goals.
Another famous Australian athlete
has made the great sacrifice for ac-
cording to late reports from the Euro
pean front Cecil HeaIy was killed in
recent charge. At the time of his
death Healy was an adiutant. having
achieved an excellent record for brav-
cry and resourcefulness under stress of
severe fighting. Healy was one of the
best of the Australian middle distance
swimmers and at the time of his death
held several Antipodean records at
distances ranging from $50 to 400
yards. At one time he possessed the
Worlds record for $50 Yards in open
water but his time was bettered by D.

THE YUMA VALLEY.

The Yuma Valley of Arizona, under national reclamation has forged rapidly to the front as one of the rich and fertile re- gions of the South The change from the old haphazard methods which prevailed during the period when private irriga- tiOn systems were operated to the present condition of inten- sive and practical farming under the government canals is mark ed. This change is particularly gratifying to the Reclamation Service at Washington, D. O.
 Last years crop report is g. most interesting document, and predicates in a measure the re- suits which will obtain when 100, 900 acres are prepared for crop. In 1916 the total area cropped was 28, ,283 acres, and the gross returns amounted to $1 ,435 ,4O3, or an average of $5O.75 per acre. Alfalfa consti- tuted the most important crop in acreage and gross returns, the yield of hay on 1O,88O acres be- ing $266, 898, or $25 per acre, and from seed, grown on 8, 100 acres the returns were $328, ,725, or $40.57 per acre.
 The highest average return was from cotton and seed, $500 per acre. On 467O acres $2, ,289,- 43O lbs. of cotton, or an average of 49O lbs. per acre were pro- duced, and the gross value was S397 APO. The average yields per acre of other crops were as follows: Beans, $44; Truck, STA; Indian corn, $24; Corn sorghum, $25; Wheat, $22. The best evid- ence of better farming is shown by the fact that the average re- turn per acre in 1916 was 45 per cent greater than for 1915.
 The Yuma project, with it's twelve months of growing sea- son, its abundance of water, and comparatively cheap priced land, offers a splendid opportunity for the farmer who is looking for a home where winter SnOwS and summer drouths never come.

Woodrow Wilson 2sth President.

Woodrow Wilson is the 18th president of the United States. reckoning Cleveland's two terms as separate ones because he was the only president serving twice who was not reelected.
 Virginia leads in the nativity of presidents. Eight of her sons-Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, William Hen ry Harrison, Tyler, Taylor and Wilson-have held the highest office in the gift of the nation.
 Ohio has given six native sons to the presidency. They were Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Ben gamin Harrison, Mckinley and Taft.
 Of all the vacations in life the law has furnished most presi- dents. Nineteen chief executives of the United States were law yers at the time they were elect ed. Three are classified as statesmen; two as soldiers, two as farmers, one as public of ficial.
 Seventeen presidents have been college men; one was grad uated from West Point, nine had uo collegiate education.
 English paternal ancestry has predominated among all the presidents. Fifteen were of English extraction. Six were Scotch Irish, three were Scotch, two were Dutch, one was Welsh.
 The youngest president, at the time of inauguration was Roose- welt, who was 46. The oldest was William Henry Harrison, who was 6S.
 Of all the presidents John Ad, ans lived to the oldest age. He was 90 when he died. d.-Miner.

Items of Interest Culled From Our
 Exchanges.

Tucson is to have a municipal play ground and athletic park, the city courcil having appro- priated at recent meeting 2,OO0 for that purpose. This is a move in the right direction and the investment will be re- paid in time a thousand fold.
 The matter of an historical pageant for Tucson has been taken up by the luncheon club of this city. The idea is to have pageant representing the four historical eras through which Tucson has passed, the Indian, Spanish, Mexican and American. Discussion revealed the belief that this ought not to be held earlier than year hence.
 A movement on foot here for some time to acquire city water plant has taken definite step forward this week when the town council of Williams decided to obtain appraisement of the property of the water company. Tbe application was made the Arizona Corporation Commis- sion. The company holds the sale price of the property at $125, ,OOO.
 The Botony Department of the Experiment Station. Univer- sity of Arizona, has recently issued a little publication enti- tied Roses for the Home" This treats, in particular, of perpecJ- ual or ever blooming roses in hybrid perpetual roses, ram blers, and China and Bengal roses. The varieties which are named have been proved hardy for Arizona conditions over a period of several years time and include some of the finest roses that are grown. There is also a fine list of hardy ever blooming climbing roses, which are always appreciated.
 The biggest tourist hotel pro- ject ever planned for Arizona, carrying with it an expenditure of $35O,OOO, has just become known. The Southern Pacific railroad is going to erect on the shores of Roosevelt lake the biggest and most luxurious hotel in the Southwest. It has been announced that land to the ex- tent of several hundred acres had been leased and that the hotel would be completed within tha nQxt nine months As nlan- ned by the Southern Pacific, the new hotel will occupy the site of the Webb Lodge, which at pre- sent does service as a hostelry at the dam.
