MARIETTA HAS REPRESEN-
TATIVES ON ALL STATE
PREP TEAM.

The sun has set or the 1918 Bas-
ket Ball prep league season and Ma
rietta has the honor of having two
Representatives on the All Prep State
Team. These two girls are Miss Mu-
riel Williams at guard and Miss Au-
drey Boatner at forward The girls
showed up well and it was difficult
to select an All Prep Team from the
fine bunch of players that the Prep
League turned out, but there was
little trouble in arriving at the con-
clusion that Miss Williams was by far
the best Guard in the whole league,
she is the guard who prevented the
excellent forward Miss Graves, from
even attempting a field goal in the
last game of the Prep League season.
Miss Boatner scored Fl points for
her team this season, and the other
All Prep Forward scored 27 for her
Team.
All the girls deserve the greatest
praise for the pep put forth and the
wonderful playing they pulled on the
various teams. They gave Fulton
High one of the hardest scraps ever
seen on Prep League Court, and
the Fultonites were scared stiff for
it seemed that Marietta was about
to pull the victory.
The Marietta girls have been called
the Battalion of DEATH" the Wild
Cats from Marietta, and any other
number of names that would distin-
guish them as fierce bunch, In
most games they lived up to their
names, and in no instance did they
display any weakness. Their indi-
vidual playing was great and the
Team work toward the close of the
season became like unto machinery.
The Varsity of 1918 will walk down
into the school history as one of the
greatest teams that ever played in
Prep League games, and the names
of the players will be on the lips of
the rising teams as heroines of real
life.
Possibly the person who deserves
most credit for the development of
such a team is Coach A Guthrie. He
surely turned out team that did
credit to any coach.

UNITED STATES AWAKES
TO SPIES PRESENCE
For Three Years this Country Has
Been Honeycombed by German
Agents.
IN. Y. World, June 5, 1919

IN. /. WOIlu, JUNE d lJI ~
The astonishing thing about the
newly discovered plots to smuggle
military information out of the Unit
ed States to Germany is that there
should be astonishment.
For three years the United States
has been hoAeycombed with German
spies and German agents, many of
of them Of non-Germanic origin bat
all of them working for German mon
ey. Nobody in his right mind could
have believed that this system col
lapsed with the entrance of the I'm
tied States into the war or that the
energies of the German spy machine
would fail to respond to the new
needs of Berlin.
Great Britain has not yet succeed
ed in Kidding itself of the German
secret agents who were established
there at the beginning of the war,
and the United States can hope for
even less success owing to the long
operations of the German propagan-
da.

Longworth OF Ohio and Gillett Of
Massachusetts are apparently the
leading candidates to succeed Champ
Clark as boss of the house. Gillett
is acting republican leader. Repre-

can leader, is too i'll to be considered
for the speakership it is said, though
he would doubtless be the almost
unanimous choice were he able to
undertake the heavy duties involved.
If Gillett is chosen speaker Long
worth probably will succeed him as
republican floor leader
Fess, Ohio chairman of the con-
gressional committee, may get the
speakership as reward for the re
publican victory in the house. Many
republicans give Fess a large share
of the credit for organizing the cam.
paign and favor making him speaker
or at least floor leader.
Towner, Iowa member of the COM
mittee on education, and Campbell,
Kansas, are others whose friends to-
day were booming them for speaker.
Uncle Joe Cannon, former speaker
will get complimentary vote in the

for the place.

Clark would make better use of the
minority strength.
