The winning number on the
Red Cross Playerphone at Philip
was drawn at the Gem theater
last Saturday night, the number
is us and the holder has not ap-
peared at this time. Look your
numbers over. If the holder Of
number MS does not show up
before the close of the first pict-
ure show at the Gem theater
next Saturday night another
number will be drawn.
The Elbon branch held a dance
and supper at Axel Pearson's on
Friday night the oath. In con-.
nection with the dance a shadow
supper was staged. Both events
were very successful. The total
proceeds amounted to over $400.
Mr.. c. M. Lloyd and Miss Stella
Roush of Philip furnished the
music. Mr.. and Mrs. John
Wright, DR.. ]. w. Barksdole, G.
L. Dorothy and Ed. Lins were
among the Philip people present.
We are able to make almost a
complete report on the war fund
drive. The cash already deposit
ed in the bank considerably ex-
ceed the allotment for the county,
in some instances meetings have
been held and the money raised
but the mere details of sending
in checks has not been attended
to. If any branch has not sent
in its funds by the time this item
appears it should attend to it at
once as DR.. Barksdale, who is in
charge of the campaign must
make report to the Minneapolis
headquarters. The only branch
that has not vet reported in some
form is the North Fork branch.
The other branches of the county
have reported as follows:
Hardingrove allotment $500,
raised $500; Ellwood allotment
$50, raised $3.50; Ashcreek allot-
ment $500, raised $500; Ottumwa

AD WOLGAST
 SEEKS HEALTH
 IN THE WOODS

SOMEWHERE IN WISCONSIN Oct, 26- Unable to obtain penny of the fortune he won in the ring, Ad Wolgast, former lightweight champ ion, is acting as hostler to a decrepit motorboat somewhere in the northern Wisconsin timber country, where he is trying to regain his health. The Michigan bear-cat, who leaped into prominence almost over night, disappeared several months ago and was not heard from until he com municated recently with friends in Milwaukee to announce that he had a job.
 Wolgast shares with Bat Nelson the distinction of being among the few re- maining fighting champions" Unlike Nelson, who owns half the town of HegeSwich, Illinois, and controls the other half, Wolgast is virtually penni- less, his fortune approximately $l50, 000 being in custody of his mother and his wife who are in Cadillac, Michigan.
 In a letter advising his friends of eSpouSal of industry, Wolgast said he planned to go even farther into the woods for the winter and become lumberjack. He hinted that he hoped through the strenuous life of tim Der cutter to regain his health and return to the ring. This, however, is considered unlikely.
 WolgaSt started his ring career as n pork and beaner" in Milwaukee. He wrecked the championship dreams of number of promising Gghtweights and finally was awarded a try at the title in 1910. Nelson and Wolgast met at Point Richmond, California and their battle probably will remain ring epic as long as the fight game flouriSheS. IL marked the climax or a series of premier championship bouts in the lightweight division, and NelsJn'S wonderful exhibition with the late Joe Cans still were fresh in the memory of the fans. The fight was probably one of the bloodieSt ever staged. At end of forty rounds Wolgast's youth had won and the Durable Dane" was beaton.
 For two years Wolgast capitalized on his championship, taking on claim ants over short routes throughout the east and west. He lost his title to Willie Ritchie, San Francisco pretend CT, in sixteen rounds in 1912. Ritchie battered Wolgast badly and the bear cat fouled him, Referee Griffin award ing the bout to the California claim ant.
 Following his defeat Wolgast at tempted to stage several come-backs but never got within striking distance of the title.
 A year ago Wolgast suffered 8 physical breakdown and was sent to a Milwaukee sRnitarium, where be was restored to comparative health. Fol lowing bis release from the hospital he disappeared and no word came from him until receipt of the message that he had become a fresh-watsr sailor.

This they did and after scoring for position they took the bridge together and after some leading and some pushing they went over, although remarks made there remains a lingering suspicion that it waS an ass who made the bridge.

BAKER ASKS HOUSE
TO PASS ARMY BILL

Washington, D. c., May 23.-After
a conference between Secretary Baker
and Chairman Dent Of the house mill.
tary committee today, the committee
arranged to have Secretary Baker ap-
pear late this afternoon at An execu-
tive session in behalf of his plan to
give the president unlimited authority.
in the army bill as to the number OF
men he may call out.
Under the army law as 1t now
stands, the president Is authorized to
call out only approximately 100000
fighting men. This. however. has mot
been construed to restrict his author.
ity to call out men for the special ser.
vices. AS the need for great army
in France has developed, It has be-
come apparent now that the law must
be extended.
