OPELOUSASLOSES
TO CARENCRO BOYS
Local Basket Ball Team Suffers
Defeat at Hands Of Cham
pion Lafayette Club

The Opelousas high school basket
ball team journeyed to Lafayette on
last Friday to engage the crack Car
encro quintette in a championship
game. While Opelousas suffered
what looks somewhat like a severe
drubbing, the local boys, in Coaches
Mendoza's and Roberts opinion, show
ed up to much advantage. The
game resulted in 20 to 4 victory in
favor of Carencro.
Carenero has fast team and the
members of the club, it is said, have
been playing together for two years,
while the Opelousas boys only recent
ly got together and began practicing.
The 0pelousas' coaches claim that in
few months the local high school
will have one of the best basket ball
teams in this section, when they hope
to get their revenge on the winning
team of last week.

II. C.L. HITS WORK
OF The RED CROSS
Peace Program of Association
Considerably Nose Costly
Than War Activities

The high cost of giving aid and re-
lief to the families of American sol
diers has hit the Gulf Division of the
American Red Cross, according to
statement given out by Harry L.
Hopkins, Director of Civilian Relief
fer the Division. In this statement
Mr.. Hopkins points out that during
August the Red Cross in Louisiana,
Alabama and Mississippi spent twice
as much for this purpose as the av-
erage monthly sum expended during
the twelve months preceding Aug
ust.
During August the Gulf Division
| A. R. c., spent $12,264.25 on aid CIV
EN- to the families Of soldiers through
the 224 Home Service sections of the
Division. During the twenty previ-
Gus months the Division had spent
4,624.76, bringing the total up to
$126889. 10. OF this total $69, 451.24
was devoted to giving aid to the fam
lilies of soldiers, sailors and marines
in Louisiana, $5,684.58 being the sum
spent during August.
1892 Families Aided.
In all, 1892 families in the Gulf
division were furnished information
and financial relief through the
month of August the total number
of families aided, which includes the
20 months prior to August, being
| 1856, 16O. Of this latter total 1854 of
the families resided in Louisiana
1902 of these families being served
during August.
"The Gulf Division is proud of this
record" said Mr.. Hopkins in MAX
ing public the figure for the report,
particularly in view of the fact that
the Gulf Division is the only division
, in the Uunited States which has q
Home Service Section for every chap
ter. However, these figures by no
means represent the total activities
of these sections.
''For instance the New Orleans
Home Service Agent had aided 1718
transient families here, 214 of these
families being assisted during August
The Division of Civilian Relief sends
out IL, 900 letters month on an av-
erage.
All Part of Program.
"All of this work is part Of the
peace time program of the Red Cross
which has already been adopted by
81 Of the 224 chapters in the division
"The reason for the increase il
the amount of money spent for the
: relief of the families of soldiers, sail
.ors, and marines during August may
be found very largely in the fact tina
most of the able bodied men are dis
charged by this time and are able t.
take care of their families themselves
Those who remain are the men wh'
: are still in hospitals and who can d
nothing for the persons dependen
: upon them.
"Of course the significance Of al
this is the emphasis it lends to tn
: need for the thorough establishment
