GRID RIVALS IN
 FINE CONDITION
 FOR TURKEY DAY
Players on Both Squads in Pink of Shape, Coaches Say-Game to Be Played on High School Athletic Field - Teams Stronger Than in Past

With every member of both squads in tip-top physical condition, neither the Coyotes nor Indians will have an excuse to offer should defeat be their lot when the teams clash in the annual Thanksgiving day football game, the premier gridiron event of the season in the Salt River valley. The game this year, for the first time in his- tory, will be played on high school athletic field.
 Never before in the history of ath- letic relations between the two schools have the teams been in such splendid condition as now. Not an injury is evident and even customary bruises | and scratches are conspicuous by | their absence.
 Tuned to High Pitch With nearly two weeks of rest the teams are tuned up to a high pitch for 1 the battle and indications point to one of the hardest fought football strug- gles ever waged between these repre- sentative teams.
 l Both teams are stronger this year than heretofore. The Indian teams of past seasons have been largely indi- vidual squads, each player performing | himself rather than for his brother players. While the 1919 eleven does not boast a Butler, the team play is fully 50 per cent better than in 19f? The players have been give to un- derstand that they are only one cog in the bit of machinery designed tc grind out victory for the Phoenix In | dian school football team, and with victory as the goal, the players work | in harmony to achieve that end. Coach Duran has been fortunate in having one of the largest squads that has ever turned out at the Indian school to work with. Three full teams have been practicing the entire sea- son and to see the various elevens in action, it would be difficult to pick out l the first squad.
 | With plenty of substitute players Duran need not worry about injuries Many of his second string men are fully as good as the varsity playess although, perhaps, less experienced.
 Finish Training Today
 Geary also is abundantly supplied with second string men, In the back | field, for instance, he has Ward ol Campbell for the fullback and half back jobs and either Norton or Braw- ner at quarterback. He also has sev- eral good substitute linemen.
 Both teams will apply the finishing touches to their work this afternoon with fast signal practice and the coaches will then rest their hopes with the pigsk1n chasers.
 The game will be called at o'clock sharp and will be played unless un- favorable weather conditions prevent

Gilbert high and Chandler high com prise class B.
 Each team in both divisions will play at-home and at-home games with the other three teams. At the end of the series, the winners in class A and class will meet to decide the valley title. The winner of thi sgame will then meet the winner of the Florence Casa Grande game for the inter valley title.
 Should either the Tempe Normal or Phoenix Indians win the Salt River valley title, however. the leading high school team will be recognized title holder among the high schools. The two institutions mentioned are not en- titled to high school rating, it is stated. and for this reason cannot claim the valley high school title.
 Although the schedules, announced below, are practically complete, it is stated that all teams in both divisions will undoubtedly meet teams outside the association.

iFALLACY OF TAKING
UNUSED RESOUR-
CES

This is favorite but misleading
slogan of professional reformers.
; 1t Is a popular way Of striking at
undeveloped water powers, to confis-
cate them.
The main oppositions which comes
from the farming element, hinges on
yet another feature of the PROPOSE
ton.
They point out that IL taxation of
unused resources is allowed that ev-
cry farmer who does not farm his
piece of land to the full limit Of it's
capabilities is liable to have his tax
es raised.
Mines that are not developed
would have to pay mora taxes and
there would be no end to the things
that might be brought in under the
Flaw.
1t is recognized by businessmen
that lack OF capital in business enter
prises often handicaps the develop
ment of unused resources and It is
principle of business to deal Justly
with all kinds OF property without
|confiscating it with taxes.

TWO.YEAR TERM FOR MOORER.
Convicted of Causing Death of Little
Thelma Cammef.

Charleston, June 6.-Circuit Judge
R. Withers Memminger in the court
of general sessions yesterday imposed
a sentence of two years in the State
penitentiary or the public works on
c.. NJ. Moorer, convicted Of man
slaughter, for killing little Thelma
Cammer with his automobile. Moor
er is 26 years of age. After striking
the little girl, he did not stop his
machine to ascertain the extent OF
her injuries. He also changed Ii
cense numbers after the accident.
This case has been attracting much
attention.
It was brought out in the testi-
mony that Moorer ran over and killed
child while riding in car with
Mrs. Blackwell, who was separated
from her husband, and whom Moorer
has since married. After running
over the child Moorer drove on with
out stopping to see what had happen
ed. On the stand Mrs. Moorer said
that it was her request that they go
on, that she could not stand the sight
of the dead child.
It was brought out that Moorer
changed the license number on his
car after the accident. This Moorer
admitted, but said that he had pre-
viously found the license number and
had hung it over his number expect
ing that some one would see it and
thus get it to it's rightful owner. The
number he found, he said, was the
one displayed when the accident oc-
Cured. He knew that trouble would
come and he did not want a false
number on his car, and so he re-
moved it, he testified.
Moorer claimed that he was riding
about Is miles an hour and that
when he applied brakes he had re-
duced it to about 10 miles an hour
when he hit the child.
