Sailors NeW Coach Enters

Surpassed By FeW Leaders

New York, September 16-The abb
Navy football game upon the seasons
schedule of gridiron contests appears
likely to deprive Golmour Dobie, the
sailors new coach, of an opportunity
to test his tutoring mettle against the
skill and strategy of the soldiers
coaching staff In engaging the services
of Dobie the Naval academy authori-
ties secured football Instructor with
a remarkable record. If the middies'
team is as successful this fall as other
elevens have been in the past under
the coaching of Dobie the Navy team
will be unusually keen to clash with
cadet eleven from the plains of West
Point.
The Naval academy has had several
football coaches of more than ordinary
ability and record, both as players and
mentors, in other years, but none of
these can point to record that equals
in any particular the one that the new
middle instructor has established dur
ing the past decade. Dobie first came
into intercollegiate prominence as a
football coach in 1908, when he took
charge of the University of Minnesota
team. Since that year he has been in
charge of prominent e1evens in the
middle and far west with a success
that is little short Of phenomenal
During the past "A years Dobies
teams have played 81 games, winning
SO; losing none, and being held to a
tie score but four time. In this period
of play the elevens coached by aim

3495 points to their opponents 152, Civ

The Norwoods hammered the offer

of the Birmingham aggregation, to all
corners of the lot during his stay of
five innings on the mound. In fact,
all but one Of the locals seven runs
were made by pounding the slants Of
Mr.. Loveless.

nicked his delivery for eight safeties,

settled down and hurled superb ball.
LOVELESS RELIEVED
Lefty Smith relieved Loveless in the
fifth inning with six runs across the
pan, the bases filled and only one man
down. One more runner scored and
for the remainder of the contest Smith
proved the master of the locals
The second game was far the more
interesting. 1t was really the game
to tell whether the Norwoods or Pratt
city would be eliminated from the
championship. The Birmingham boys
were outplayed and thus they were
defeated and eliminated.
It was a costly play by Frank Welsh
in right field which cost the Birming-
hamers the second game. With the
bases filed and two men out in the
eighth inning Welsh misjudged and
fumbled short fly. All three men
scored, putting the Norwoods in the
lead.
M'WHORTER HURLS AGAIN
creager hurled both games for the
Norwoods. McWhorter. who pitched
the locals to victory Saturday, returned
to the hill in the second game and
had Welsh captured the short fly
victory would have resulted for the
Pratt boys.
Walter Werner. the former Baron,
saved the game for the Norwoods in
the ninth when he made a sensational
one handed stab of line drive off
Watson's bat with two men on the
paths.
The locals gained an early lead in
the second game by tallying twice in
the second round. Another was scored
in the ninth.

GROWS FINE VEGETABLES
ON OVERLOOKED LAND

Included in a load of vege-
tables brought in today by Will
liam Noyen from his tract across
the river were some very fine
specimens of cabbage and Gu
cumbers. Mr.. Noyen is very
proud of these vegetables as they
were grown on land which was
overflowed by the high water this
spring and were not planted until
after the first of July. At that
time Mr.. Noyen set out several
thousand cabbage plants and also
planted abuht three acres of po-
tatoes as an experiment to see
whether late crops could be
raised ON the land. He has sue
ceeded even beyond his eXpecta-
tions and the success of his ex-
pertinent has opened up new
possibilities in the way of second
crops where the land is sufficient
ly rich to stand it. Mr.. Noyen has
entered some of his vegetables at
the Spokane Interstate Fair and
has strong hopes of carrying off
some prizes.

Herrick Buys Rich
Meadow Land
CONSIDERATION REPORTED $lO,7SO
Purchases Holdings OF f. NJ Shields Al Big
Meadows. Will Dixie Land

The largest and most import
ant land transaction that has
been made in this county was
consummated Saturday when
Fred Herrick, president of the
Milwaukee Lumber company,
purchased the holdings Of f. M.
Shields at Big Meadows, on the
ST. Joe river. The tract of land
IS included in Sections 7,8 and
i8, Township 46 n, Range ?,
comprising 438 acres and the
purchase price was SI6,73O.OO.
The tract adjoins that of p. Il.
Sweeney, through whom the deal
was made. The deal has been
pending for the past two or three
weeks and was finally closed and
the purchase price paid over
Saturday.
Mr.. Herrick is one of the prime
movers behind the project to
deepen and widen the mouth Of
the Spokane river in an effort to
prevent recurrence of the dis
astrOus floods of this spring and
of former years and his purchase
of these holdings speaks we'll for
his faith in the success of that
project. The tract which he has
just purchased is all meadow land
and has been overflowed by the
high water each spring. His plans
q 9r the improvement of the land
nclude the building of "a dyke
around the tract and with this
and the lowering of the river by
the large project he anticipates
no trouble in keeping the land
free from water.
