Oakley Lost to
Twin Falls Friday
Another Victory For The Local Boys
Places Them High In Basket Ball
Sky.


Coach Nafziger's fast basketball
team won their second game of the
season from the Oakley team here
Friday
The high school gymnasium was
packed with enthusiastic spectators
all who anticipated a very good game
and expressed their faith in the home
team by their continuous cheering.
The game opened with good playing
and fast team work on both sides,
but the Twin Falls boys had the adj
vantage of being used to the floor
and therefore kept the ball near their
goal most of the time. Several spec
tacular shots by Captain Glasgow
made the first scores for Twin Falls
other basket shooting throughout the
game was done by Neuman, Lavender
Carter Hodges and Strong. Through
out the first half the Twin Falls boys
played the superior game, and greatly
outclassed the visitors in team work
and basket shooting. AT the end OF
the first half they had succeeded in
running up a score of Is to 3.
The Oakley boys came back strong
in the second half and for time made
even scores with Twin Falls. Quick
passing and fast team work kept both
teams covering the floor, but Twin
Falls gradually lead away from their
opponents and at the close of the
game Twin Falls had % points to
Oakley's IA.
Oakley has an exceptionally fast
team and proved a good match for the
local boys, but since they have team
made up of new and inexperienced
material, with the exception of one,
they were outclassed by the two and
three years of playing of some of the
local team. Coach Stout brought only
five men with him because of the scar
city of material there this year.
The following is the lineup of the
two teams:

There were numerous contributing
causes, but the chief of them were
the following:
l. Famine and distress caused by
the long war.
2. Hostility to the governments
servility to Germany.
g. fractional strife among the num-
erous races making up the dual mon
archy
4. The ardent desire for peace.
5. Socialistic influence exerted by
the Russian Bolsheviki.

because of the racial factions of
which it is composed

active on the buying side.
Trade in corn was light and prices
influenced by the strength in oats
were slightly higher than the previous

Heavy receipts of hogs at the yards
had a depressing effect on the provis-

States was lacking a definite military
policy and referred to the system of
war government as 'disjointed."
Il felt it my duty to speak out,
said Senator Chamberlain in the let
ter.
He asked the president for an APP
pointment to go over with him the
testimony before the military affairs
committee showing in efficiency in the
war department. He received no re-
ply to this suggestion.
"As for General Crozier l have no
criticism of him personally. We
haven't, however, been able to do
what every one of our allies has done,
that is to retire these gentlemen who
have not been up to the standard in
the work of the war.
Take the machine gun. / am not
going into that detail. Here was the
Lewis gun, manufactured in America
for Great Britain and she had 10000
of them on the battle front. America
was prepared to put them out in great
quantities and yet, while we stood on
the edge of a seethlng volcano we
were trifling along, through the ord
nance department, trying to find
machine gun. Nine guns to go up
against the millions of Germany! 1t
may be that we are now prepared to
begin their manufacture in quantities.
with 100000 rifles in America,
rifles of every description, and with
rifles being manufactured for Great
Britain here the ordnance department
went to work to improve the Enfield
rifle. l think they have better gun
but here while the house was burning
America was determining what in
strumentalities to employ to put out
the fire"
The senator then attacked the mill
tary men saying that they did not
know of clothing shortages and that
the evidence showed this to be true.
He said that President Wilson did
not know it because he depended on
the secretary of war for information,
and Secretary Baker did not know be-
cause he depended on others who did
not know.
At this juncture, Senator Chamber
lain produced pile of photographs,
showing cssntonment conditions, in
Guiding the use of wooden machine
guns He instructed the clerk to pass
the photographs around among the
senators.
my integrity has been assailed,'
said Senator Chamberlain.
Il want to show that they have act
ually used wooden machine guns. i
/ had a boy to go to France I'd want
to have him trained with something
else than wooden cannon and tele-
graph poles.

Death of Edmund Krull.

Among those who went across
to France in the service of the
military branch of the post Of
flee department was Mr.. Ed
mundKrull, who had been a>clerk
in the Nogales post office, from
which post he enlisted in the
postal service for the army,
going across in December. Re-
Gently Mr.. and Mrs. H A. Smith,
with whom he roomed, received
a letter dated February 18th, in
which he wrote that he had been
in the hospital since December
31st, but was improving and ex-
pected to be returned to- the
United States shortly.
Mr.. Krull wrote that shortly
after his arrival in France there
had been received $4,000 sacks
of parcel post mail-Christmas
parcels for the soldiers, and that
the entire force had BEEN over
worked in effecting their proper
distribution. The lot made a
pile that. would fill the Nogales
town park to the height of a
building like the Nogales Cafe.
1t was that overwork that had
taken the young man to the hos
pital. The letter came about a
month ago. J
Yesterday Mr.. Smith received
word from the East-from his
daughter-conveying the sad in
telligence that Mr.. Krul1's name
had appeared in a recent list of
casualties transmitted from
France, So the recovery suffi-
Icient to return him home had
failed to materialize. Mr.. Krull
was a very pleasant young man,
and he had been sent to Nogales
from some other point to fill a
terth in the post office here at
a time when experienced help
was needed greaetly. He had
Iendeared himself to all who met
him, and had made good in all
relations. His early demise is
regretted by all.

The superiority claimed for the
American weapon is supported on
three counts: Quicker firing as re-

flight resulting from bullet design and
