FALL WHEAT CROP SHORT

Some weeks ago the Star-Nfirror called attention
to the large of wheat in the Palouse country
that had been winter killed. 1t suggested survey
with view to determining the that should be
reseeded in the spring.
The Palouse Republic seemed to take exceptions
to this 1t insisted that Whitman county all right
and that if any survey made the farmers them
selves the best qualified to make it. The last part
of this is right The farmers the best qualified for
such duty and it the idea of the SarMirror that
the be made by competent farmers One thought
was that men of limited could be assisted with
seed and perhaps work to the end that the farm output
be increased much possible in this critical year
But the statement that Whitman county winter
wheat all right hardly justified in the light Of
later Developments AS proof of this the Colfax Com
lnoDer has report on conditions in which it says:
Farmers from all parts of the county whit
mani reporting severe losses of fall sown grain.
In the western part of the county reports state that
% per cent of the crop must be reseeded Com
missioner Manchester says 80 per cent of the grain
south of Cofax has been frozen out. The same COM
plant comes from Pullman, Cotton and Uniontown
AT Garfield and the northern part of the county
losses in fall grain is reported. N NJ
Crider well known farmer of Thornton, says that
the farmers in that part of the county have lost so
per cent of all fall grain"
This presents serious situation, that applies
to Latah and other counties well Whitman And
the situation is rendered all the serious by the
late spring, making it just that much difficult to
plant the extra acreage
1t. will do good wink at this condition to
attempt to brush it aside. Palouse farmers face
to face with problem that challenges their best
thought and energy They are entitled too, all
assistance they get from every direction

CROSS-COUNTRY
 TEAM FOR YALE
Elaborate Schedule Arranged for Eli Runners Coached by Queal

New Haven. Nov. 3.-Yale's cross- country team has decided upon the
 most elaborate schedule this fall of any of the athletic organizations of the university. It will be the only team to be entered in, 8 genuine in- tercollegiate competition. It has been entered in the Intercollegiate meet i'll Van Cortland Park, New York. NoV "A. and the squad. has gone into train ing, following the fall track games last Saturday, under the coaching of William Queal, who has developed Yale's distance men the past four years.
 Captain Walters has six veterans, a larger number than any other Yale team can exhibit this fall. They in- clude Aikenhead, German. Comegys. Driscoll and Hincks, with Captain Walters. Of this number Hincks. who ran third in the dual games with Harvard last year, is. the most relia- ble in the six-mile events. Dr1Scoll won the mile run at the fall meet Saturday in 4 minutes, 5S seconds. about 25 seconds slower than the usual time for Yale games. Walters and Hincks did not start. John Dan- aher, the former Meriden High school star, displayed promise in the fall meet. Captain Walters has taken nineteen of the candidates to the training table, the novices including Bunyan,, Danaher, Gales, Fisher, Gib- son., Kraus, Levine, Lunt, Marlin, Miner Sheldon, Waterman and Will son.
 An unusually promising freshman squad has just been formed and dual meets have been arranged with Princeton and Harvard. The team will run the Crimson 1921 distance fiers in Cambridge on the morning of the Yale-Harvard freshman foot ball game, Nov. IT. Fennimore Coo per, the former Taft school track star. is probably the most promising mem Der of the 1921 team. although he is strongest in the middle-distance events. The freshman squad is made up of the following: Boyd. Cooper, Cannon, Glass, Lukens, Lit, Lump kin, Norton, Parsons, Reker, Semean, Smith, Simpson, Schmitz, Sauer, Tag gart, Tyler and Williams. A series of paper chases was begun this after noon by Coach Queal to round the varsity and freshman teams into con- ditiOn.

THE sLoWEsT PITCHER.

Baseball writers did not let out whoop of delight when they heard that Byron Houck would be a mem Der of the St. Louis Americans next season. Houck joined the Athletics in 1912. He was given thorough tryout. When Manager Mack wanted to send him to the Baltimore club he jumped to the Federals. Person. ally, Byron Houck is a mighty fine chap, but as a pitcher for the Ath
 letics he caused the scorer and the fans to get many gray hairs. In the arst place Houck was one of the nlowest pitchers ever known. He some times, in fact frequently, used near ly a full minute between pitches. '

REFEREE STOPS BOUT
'Kfd" McPartland Sends Johnson and Moran from Ring for Not Trying to Battle Earnestly.

New York, Nov. 3.-L.eo Johnson, the dusky scrapper from Harlem. and Vtc Moran, the New Orleans light weight, put up so bad bout at the Harlem Sporting Club last night that Referee Kid Mcfarland hustled both out of the ring in the third round The action of the referee was loudly applauded by the spectators, who had booed the boxers from the first round till their involuntary exit.
 It was so palpably an Alphonse and Gaston affair that Mcfarland entered vigorous protest. There was no improvement in their work in the second session. and the referee told them he would send them out of the ring unless they put on some steam In the next round. They began to play tag with each other in the third and were ordered out of the ring.
 The management announced that the money the boxers were to have received would be given to some pa- triotic fund, probably the Red Cross.
 Joe Burman, the Chicago bantam, and Willie Astey put up the best bout of the night. Burman winning de- cisively. Burman dropped Astey for a short count in the first and third rounds and had him, groggy at the bell in the eighth. Astey covered up and refused to fight in the closing rounds.

 Continuance of Games As in Past.
 New York, Nov. 3.-Athletics and physical training are indispensable equally during war and peace, pr. Thomas A. Storey, head of the hy giene department of City College, urges in the current issue of College Mercury, the student publication. Prof. Storey, who is also director of all physical training education in the state, declares in the article that there never has been a time when 1t has been more essential to maintain ath- letic, recreational and physical train ing activities than now.
 ''In face of overwhelming evidence which far sighted public men in mili- tary and civil activities attach to physical training in it's broader sense there is every reason to feel that we at the College of the City of New York did exactly the right thing last spring when we decided to continue our physical training. recreational and athletic activities as long as we could get enough students together to make a class, play a game or form q team.
 Every young man should train; train for efficiency, train for longevity, train for happiness. It makes no diff ference whether the future brings peace or 8 continuation of war; the importance of this training will be as great under the one demand as un- der the other"
