TO GO AFTER MONEY
hamber OF Commerce VIII Push
Topeka- Dover Road.

Putting the prod in the campaign to
put over the Dover hard surfaced
highway is the favorite pastime at the
Chamber of Commerce these days.
The campaign to raise one thousand
dollars to finance the road campaign
was started some months ago, but up
to date a little less than one-half or
the needed sum has been returned to
Headquarters by the merchants and
business men of the city.
1t is the plan to urge the merchants
and business men who have been
assessed to finance the road project to
Immediately meet the assessment SO
that the work of circulating the high
way petition can be begun at once.
Now that the war is over and the
restrictions on road building materials
have been removed. it is desired to
start the petition at once SO that as
soon as the ground opens up in the
spring the work of construction can
be started. All merchants and BUSH
ness men who have received notice of
their assessment are urged to make
their payment at once to the Cham
Der of Commerce.

Fisher, county attorney. the result is
a bullet hole in his favorite green hat.
After years as an officer in the pur-
suit of desperate criminals: after
scores of thrilling adventures and
hair-breadth escapes. Fisher came
near losing his life by an inglerious
accident Saturday afternoon during

Maroon to Pile Up
Big Score

The Fordhasn S. A 7. c. eleven ran
roughshod over the St. Johns College
team, Of Brooklyn, yesterday afternoon,
winning by the ssore Of ~ to O. The
Maroon men outplayed their rivals in
every department Of the game. Captain
Frisch was the individual star. Time
after time this elusive back would
break away from his Interference and
brush tackler after tackler aside for
gains of from twenty-five TO forty
yards. On one occasion he received a
punt on his own zo-yard line, and with
the aid Of good interference ran
through the entire St. Johns team for
touchdown.
The Fordham team played we'll on the
defence and St. Johns Was unable to
score q first down. Not once during
the entire game was the Brooklyn team
in the Maroon territory and never
threatened to score.
St. Johns won the toss and received
the kickoff After three attempts at
the Maroon line the visitors were
forced to punt. Frisch ran the bali
back fifteen yards, and with the aid OF
Gilmartin and Manly the ball WAS car
ried to the st. Johns io-yard line,
