the plucky little Crimson quarterback, and gain after gain was recorded. Ftnally the Crimson worked the ball to the three-yard line of the sol : diers, where Stevenson plunged across for a touchdown. ,OConnor missed goal.
 Alabama gained the ball again and again during the remainder of the con- test, but lacked the punch to tally. The soldiers worked the pass frequent ly, but failed to get away for any ma terial gains
 TIME STOPS MARCH f
 In the final period time alone saved the Crimson from having another touchdown recorded against them. With McWhorter and Collins back in the game, the ball was gradually worked to the Crimson goal. The ball was on the 12-yard line for first down when time interfered.
 The play of the soldiers was excep- tionally good. The teamwork was fine, considering the fact that they have played together in but few contests. Local fans were thrilled by the dashes of McWhorter and Collins. while the spread formation of the Crimson all ways found numerous supporters.
 For the soldiers, McWhorter, Collins and Thrash played the best game, WHlle StOWerS sessions and stevenson performed brilliantly for the Kelly outfit.
 FIELD WAS SOGGY
 The field was in soggy condition and the playing of each team was somewhat handicapped. The soldiers, however, could do little with the Crimson line at critical moments and relied almost entirely on wide end runs. Alabania's style of play was the same, featuring, of course, the for ward pass and wide end runs.

TREE.PLANTING TIME IS AT HAND.

OWNERS Of land in Oklahoma are receiving circulars
from hortioulurss who offer to sell trees Among
the trees that urged for this state that bear
nuts Farmers Of Oklahoma are needing the suggestions
to plant nut trees
In some parts Of the state notably in Washington and
Carter counties pecans thriving OF course there
some losses, just as there crop losses and business
losses and financial losses But We can't get away from
the fact that nut trees money makers
One land owner IN suburb, is buying walnut trees
and may also plant almond Experts have developed
the soft shell walnut stand winter weather
Heretofore there has been the idea that these would
grow only in the climates OF California and along
the Mediterranean But wizards have been at work and
now walnuts raised in our northern states.
The limits OF nut culture are not confined to farms
Nuts can be raised in the back yards OF city property
Oklahoma City should plant enough trees this fall to
assure supply that would be ample for local consumption
when the trees mature which would be in only few years
Plant trees. Plant some kind, at least but why not,
plant the kind that will supply shade and also bring
revenue1
