Washington, Nov S.-Thousands of tons of coal held by jobbers and wholesalers was made available for emergency distribution today when the fuel administration decided to al low the dealers to take small mar gin of profit on coal they had con tracted for at high prices before the government prices were fixed. Today's ruling provides that the jobbers may sell at margin of 15 per cent above the contract cost to purchasers, to be designated by state fuel administrat- ors.

PINE BLUFF GOES
 INTO BIG GAME
 BADLY CRIPPLED
Locals Are Determined to Win, However, as Cham
 pionship in Balance.

Crippled but game to the core, the Pine Bluff Zebras will go Tn the game with LOnOke High school team at Ath- letic field this afternoon at 2:30 de. termined to win.
 The loss Of two regulars will handi- cap the locals to some extent but with a large supply of second string men to pick from, Coach Bassett thinks he can put out winning combina- ton. The Lonoke team is one of the strongest that the locals have fac ed this year, and the game will be hard fought. The ,scrappy bunch from Lonoke always puts up the fight of their lives when they meet Pine Bluft.
 The game today will have a great deal to do in deciding the champion ship of the state. Lonoke las defeat ed Little Rock and has pus them out of the running. It remains for Pine Bluff to strike blow and cinch the honors this afternoon.
 Enthusiasm is running high at the school. The students are taking more interest and many citizens are anx- iOus to see the game and help the To- cal boys to victory. A large crowd is expected by the boys to crowd the Athletic field to overflowing. A great deal of "pep" was shown at the schools yesterday. A "pep" meeting was held at the High school yester- day, and almost all of the students bought tickets, thus assuring a large crowd of the student fans at the game.
 Tho Lonoke team arrived last night and are Quartered at the Jefferson hotel. They are husky-looking bunch, and are out for victory. They average 145 pounds to Bassett's 140.

 Woodeocks In London.

Woodcocks. which during the pAsl few days have been flushed within 300 yards of. the Marble. arch," are by no means such rare visitants to Lon don as some ornithologists, seem to lmagin> says the London Chronicle. They have from time to time been no ticed in almost every park or "open space" that contains sheltering shrubs. and occasionally during very hard win ters or their periods of migration. they have found temporary refuge even in the little derelict churchyards of the city. At the beginning of the last century the boys of Westminster school used to get good woodcock shooting among the wilsls of Ohelsea and Ecttersea. Most of those young sportsmen took preliminary lessons from a learned professor who lived near Deans yard and styled himself Instructor of young gentlemen in the new art of shooting flying"

 The wrist watch has been very slow n coming into its rightful place in these United States. It is about 10 years since it appeared. At first it was considered g piece of jewelry which could only be worn upon femi- nine wrist. The bracelet in gold and the timepiece were often combined. There are, of course, some manly indi- viduals who wear bracelets even with out the pretext that they need them as watch settings. The old Roman leeionaries and the fierce Numidians wore their bracelets high 0C the upper arm SO that they could flex their bulging biceps against them.

PRESIDENT EBBETS
RECEIVES SUPPORT
FOR SUNDAY GAMES

NEW YORK, Nov. Hanging
grimly to his convictions. Charles H.
Ebbets, president of the Brooklyn
National club, Is drawing nearer and
nearer the goal OF Sunday baseball in
the Stats of New York. Today he
announced he had obtained the in
dorsement OF Mayor John Purroy
Mitchell for Sunday games, and other
candidates have expressed themselves
similarly.
In addition to the weight that will
go with the public statements OF these
candidates, Ebbsts has the distinction
of being the first man ever to get
an expression from a candidate on the
subject OF Sunday baseball.
For years the Brooklyn magnate
has labored for o law that would per-
NIT Sunday schedules in the East. He
has had q petition constantly at his
baseball park, where fans were in
vited TO sign a plea for the games.
He sent his team into action recently
in a Sunday pastime for the beneflt
of the militia of mercy. For his trou-
BILE he was arrested and fined.
In his reply to questions bX Ebbets,
Mayor Mitchell made the Following
statement:
81 am in favor OF legalizinE Sun
day baseball provided that the games
be held at points and under condI-
tions which will not injure the feel
ings OF citizens who desire to practice
the religious observance of Sunday"
