cording to n press dispatch published
in one of the Tulsa Page publications,
of October 10, the Sapulpa high
school claimed to have won the foot

KENDALL'S C0NQUER0R
RATED GREAT PLAYER
Captain Black Considered the
Best Man Haskell Has
Had in Many Years.

Captain Black, who almost single
handed carried the Haskell Indians to
victory over Kendall two weeks ago, is
rated one of the best players the
Lawrence school has developed in
years.
or Blacks playing the Kansas City
journal has the following to say:
"In the many years that the Has
kell Indians have been prominently
identified with football in the Missouri
valley, they have turned out many
football stars. In years past the In
dians have cut quite a figure in west
ern gr,diron circles, but 1t is doubtful
If Haskell ever has had a much better
line plunger than captain Black of the
1917 eleven.
Under the present rules at Haskell,
Indian boys are not admitted to the
institution after they are Is years OF
age. Therefore the teams are much
Younger than those Of former years.
Rules are more strict and therefore
Coach Lubo hasn't the material to
work with that Haskell coaches had :,
few seasons back. However thru the
fplendid performance Of Captain
Black and one or two more players,
Haskell defeated~ Friends university,
~ to 0, trounced Henry Kendall, and
last saturday defeated the Emporia
Normals. To 3, which is something
OF an achievement for the Lawrence
school.
Last year Plack was a star, but he
is much better player this season,
his improvement having been rapid.
In the first game of the year his speed
and his line plunging ability beat
Friends From that time on there
was much discussion in the state about
the ability of Black. Every coach
whose team Is to meet Haskell later
In the season is inquiring about him.
They are trying to form Il defense that
will stop the plunging and end rl;A-
ming of this stocky-built gridiron war
rior whose playing alone will do much
to win games for the Indians this
year. But they arc gong 20 nave n
hard time stopping him. Altho Black
Is a clean player. he plays hard and
fights every minute of the game He
is quick. fast. a quick thinker and Il
versatile player. He takes advantage
of every opportunity to gain a yard.
As a field general he has had few II
any -superiors at Haskell i'm recent
years.
"Rlack has played several positions
hut this year he has been used as
fullbacS and halfback. Last year he
played quarter. He is entirely too
valuable to the backfield to be used
in the line, altho he Is n capable line
man and would be especially valuable
at end because of his speed and de-
fensive ability"

Food Campaign Notes

The following letter has been sent
! out by the United states food adminis-
! traitor seeking recruits in the army of
! food conserNationsts:
Uncle Sam is mighty big and strong,
hlt he Is not so big and strong that
he can afford to break promise.
o There Is not a real American in this
country who would not fight to make
good one Of Uncle Sans promises
| When Uncle Sam says anything, that
means that all his loyal sons and
daughters have said 1t. The honor
and the interest of this nation are IN
| The keeping Of our splendid citizenry.
Here is the proposition: We have
promised to "grubstake" the allies.
! We said, "'You need not farm-you
/ fiGht,"
They did not farm, but how they
| did fight!
| Winter is coming on. There were few
for the sowing and there are fewer
now for the harvest. The pinch has
come In France they are looking
across the sea and sayln:
How about that 'grubstake,' Uncle
sam; how about that 'grubstake!"
They are not whimpering, the

them but food.
II is food that will win the war!
How are we going to get IL?
We are going to save it-save 1t e.
save our pals. because that's what the
allies are in this fight.
we are going to make good on

The allies need more wheat more
meat, more sugar. II Is either wheat
less ana meatless days for us or
wheatless and meatless months for
them.
And we are going to help-everyone
on us. There Is no mistake about that.
we viii make good on the "grub'
stake" promise for the sake of the
felix's who trusted us and for the sake
OF our soldiers as well
We want no regrets after this war
We have had ample warning of the
condition which awaits us unless
every American citizen responds To the
