SWEET REVENGE FOR
JIMMY FITZPATRICK

Behind the defeat of Yale by Boston
college, made possible by field goal
kicked by Jimmy Fitzpatrick. lies a
rather interesting little story. 1t seems
that n couple of years ago. upon grad.
uating from the high school ut Meri.
den, Conn. Jimmy planned to enter
Yale and to take part in athletics at
that university. Johnny Mack. the Yale
trainer. looked the boy over one day,
however. and remarked that he would
never make an athlete. Mack's hastily
rendered judgment caused Fitzpatrick
to change his mind about going to Yale
and he entered Boston college. The
blow he delivered to the Bulldogs
pride, therefore, brought great delight
to the heart Of the Merlden boy.

Jimmy Ring was the hard luck

from the White Soy, 2 TO o.

He lost and mainly because the
Reds. who had made four runs for the
wobbly Ruether, lapsed into their Ma
tional League habit of forgetting how
to score when Jimmy took the hill.
Moran's men scored less runs for
Ring In the National League season
than for any other pitcher on the team
who worked ns much as he.
After he went into the box I'm the

Miss Olivia Tricon, of New Orleans,

Miss Tricon is veteran of the great

1918. her unit consisting of the $50 en-
listed men, nurses, sisters and officers.
On August 4th they sailed on the Um-
bria from Baltimore, landing at Gibral-

on August 9th. Three weeks later
they proceeded to their destination,

back of the firing i1ne, where they
were turned over to the Italian govern

the service, and has many interesting
souvenirs, such as gas masks. Austrian
rifles, bayonets and shells and other
things which she secured on the battle
fields and which she will be pleased to
show to her friends. The success of
our armies on the field was largely
due to the unselfish devotion of the

is THIS OIL TERRITORY?

N At the time that the De Lamortor
well no. / was being drilled at Laine
Judge Chidsey the local correspondent
of The U. s. Geological Survey, kept
that department supplied with samples
Of the borings from that well, in which
were- found several varieties of fossil
shells which indicated the geological
structure of the stratum through which
the drill was passing.
The Geological Survey has Just is
sued it's Professional Paper No 80,
which gives in full the geology of the
gulf-coastal plains. This reports es-
tablishes the fact the geology of the
coastal section is identical with the
geology of the oil regions Of Texas and
Louisiana as indicated by fossils taken
from the well.
In the De Lamorton well the fossil
shells Rangia Johnsonii were found at
depth of 1925 to 1907 feet. In the
Jennings, Haywood and Crowley wells
of Louisiana these fossils were found
at depths from 1,040 and 1,12O and
1929 and 1860 feet. In the De La
morton well at depth Of 1874 to 1,7O1
feet were found the fossil shells Ostrea.
and this fossil was found in the Jen-
nings No. at 1928 to 1873 feet, and
in Crowley No. 20, the Ostrea was
found at depths, 1889 to 1870 feet.
These facts prove beyond preadven-
ture of doubt that the geological
structure of this section Is identical
with that of the oil sections of Texas
and Louisiana.
The report gives diagram of the De
Lamorton well, partly made up from
logs sent to the department and partly
from boring and this diagram shows
salt water and gas at 2,200 feet, and
blue mari and oil showing at 1900
feet. All oil lands were at one time |
he estuary or mouth of some great |
liver, and the geology of the Gulf
Coast shows that this section was at
me time the estuary Of some great
liver, no doubt the Mississippi, and
ire favorable to the developement of
Ill and gas.

to vote on the question as to whether
or not the council should issue three
year loan certificates for certain i'm.
provements, as outlined in certain or
dlnances passed on the 18th day of

dollars of the certificates for the pur-
pose of building school house for the

CONCTETE HIGHWAY
PAS. TO MOSS POINT.
Eighteen-Foot Concrete Road viii ae
Built to Connect Pascagoula
and Moss Point.

AT joint meeting of the mayor and
aldermen of the city of Moss Point the
commissioners of the city of Pasca-
goula, the supervisors of beat two and
three and the State Highway Engi-
neer, held at the courthouse Thurs
day or this week, plans were launched
Tor the construction of an eighteen
foot concrete highway from the end of
the paved district in Pascagoula to
Randall Ferry in Moss Point. The ap-
proximate cost of such a road will be
100000, of which sum the Federal
government through the State High
way Commission will contribute about
$25,O0O or one-half the cost of the road
outside municipalities
Beats iya and three will be asked
to bond themselves for the remaining
$4,000. The combined assessment of
the two districts is $4,171787, andto
pay the annual interest on the bonds
and reduce same by the retirement of
$4,000 each year, will require an in
crease of cnly il mills on the valuation
Of property in this district.
Under the new state law the mat
ter will have to be submitted to vote
Of the people, but there is no doubt in
our minds how such an election will
go. The board of supervisors will
pass an order for the election
1T their meeting next Monday
Governments statistics show tha con-
,rete roads are the only absolutely
form of a highway. The
'irst cost is practically the only cost,
being nil. Under our
road building system the main
enance of the road rrom Pascagoula |
o Moss Point is costing the people an !
lually as much as will be required to !
,ay interest on the $4,000 bonds and |
etire $4,000 a year, and at that we !
lave never had descent road except !
when newly shelled.
By all means let's have the con-
rete road.
