and in all probability will not COM

son for their action, but it is thought
that the entire lineup could not
make the trip, due to the unexpected,
and withdrew rather than appear
with one or more substitutes.
Although we will miss watching
the champion Alvarey team of Chi

we will be given treat just as good

Cecil Francisco and Gjerda, two

Lincoln has gone past its mark
and will enter six teams, three MOI ;

The two latest teams to enter

Upkeep Depends on
the Weiqht of Your Car

How much does it cost to drag
around each pound of car you own?
1t may at first seem like an unlm-
portant question, but as matter Of
fact and record the upkeep is re-
duced rs per cent if 50 per cent
reduction in weight is effected. If
it costs you 10 cents. per mile @
operate 5000 pound car, it will
cost you approximately rs cents per
mile to operate a 1.500 pound car.
1t also can be shown that if the
lighter car is properly designed, It
will not only cost less to operate
than the heavier car, but the reduc-
ton in operating cost may be as
much as 50 per cent, or in direct
ratio to the reduction i'll weight.
This latter will be accomplished by
slashing off of weight, and a
scientific redesigning of the car
using lighter yet stronger metals
than those used at present.

Local amateur foot ball players,
managers and captains. have at last
come to the conclusion that form
ing all amateur foot ball association,
as suggested by the writer in The
Bee several weeks ago, would be the
only local method of again putting
the amateur grid game back in the
hnle-light, according to informa-
ton given out by a number of the
we'll known amateur foot ball lead
ers.
Manager Phil Lynch OF the Non
pariels, the crack class A eleven in
the city who is strongly in favor
of this movement, and woho no
doubt will be chairman of the COM
mittee, announced yesterday that if
satisfactory arrangements could be
made and the local grid stars form
the association, Omaha will apply
for franchise in the North West
Amateur foot bali association.
Minneapolis, Duluth, Winnipeg,
Des Moines and a number of other
cities are in the organization. A
home and home series will prob
ably be arranged with the cities of
the northwest association.
Should the Nonpariels be sue
cessful in scheduling this game, it
is expected that large crowd from
Omaha will accompany the team.
The Nonpariels are composed of the
best material in the city, and will no
doubt give the Iowa lads a fast
game. The Iowa Cord Tire team,
by the way is member of the
Northwest association.

game today, being defeated by Iowa,

was unable to roll back the batter
ing attacks of the Iowa backs, who
plunged through for substantial
gains i'll almost every play. Fight
ing hard in the pincfes, the Purplts
players kept Iowa from rolling up
big score. Twice the Northwest

Black had only inches to go to gain
additional touchdowns. !.
A. Devine, quarterback for Iowa
scored both touchdowns for his
team, displayed , good generalship
and made many good gains.
Koehler, Northwestern captain,
scored for the Purple in the sec
ond period when he punched
through the line after Scott had car
ried the ball to within striking dis
tance of the Iowa goal on forward

Governor Comments
on Oranges Latest

Before leaving Saturday on a trip
to the far West Governor Sproul
expressed qualification with the
statement of the officers of the
Pennsylvania State Grange which,
he said, admitted that their criticism
of the overhead expenses of the
State Highway Department had bet
ter not have been made. The Gov
ernor said: THE fact is apparent
that over eighty million dollars are
available for road construction in
the State during the next two years,
all of which, including the Federal
and county contributions to the
road system of the Commonwealth
is to be expended under the plans,
inspection and direction of the
State Highway Department, and
with the department responsible for
the proper carrying out of the work.
THE Federal contributions are
entirely under the care of the State
Highway Department and an official
of the United States Government,
who was in Harrisburg this week,
told us that Pennsylvania was CO.
operating with the Government and
doing its work better than any other
State.
I'VE have a great program under
way" said the Governor, "and what
we want from the grange and all
other good citizens is cooperation
and support in our efforts to make
Pennsylvania institutions the best
in the country. OF course, it will
cost some money to do all of these
things. but we have the money and
let us give our people the benefit of
the best that is to be had in schools,
roads, public charities and to every
activity of the Commonwealth.
The Governor said that he ex-
pected to be back in Harrisburg in
about two weeks.
