LOOK OUT FOR TIFF DENTON
 IN THREE-CUSHION BILLIARDS

Tiff Denton failed to win the three cushion billiard championship but he starred throughout the Cleveland tour nament and set records that made the old timers gasp. In his game with Byron Gillette of Buffalo, Denton made 17 in single inning and stopped only then because of his nervousness in his first tournament for the championship. Had he made one more billiard he would have equalled the highest run ever made-1S. This latter mark, how ever, was not made in a championship match or tournament and does not stand as a record, so Denton's r looks safe for some time to come.
 The second record broken by Denton was the mark for short games. The previous record was 36 innings, held Jointly by Charles McCourt, Frank Day of St. Louis, and Alfredo De Orc. Ii is the opinion of those best versed ir billiard lore that Denton's mark of 3C innings will stand for many years, and it is likely that if he continues to i'm prove, Denton will become one of the greatest stars the billiard game ever knew.
 R. l.. Cannefax established his cham pionship beyond all doubt and proved that he deserved the title which he first won from Charles McCourt. It is a curious fact that Cannefax won his first championship from McCourt in a match game and won his latest cham pionship. which he will hold for one year, in an open tournament in which McCourt was his closest competitor McCourt was also the only player tC defeat Cannefax

his running mate. While not as shifty as Mann, in carrying the ball, Mango is the hardest tackler in this section. His interference was one of the large causes of Arizonas successful year. Quarterback goes to Slonaker of Ari- zona, the same position that he won in 1917. As an open field runner and a passer he is easily the most dangerous backfield player in the southwest. He is a good field general and fair kick CT. Claud Mann of New Mexico, runs him a close race at quarter
 Gerpheide is selected as fullback. This boy (of New Mexico) is a won- derful player, considering the fact that he has had no prep school or college experience. He is an excellent defensive player and the only real line buclzer in this section.
 Several football men in the south west have picked an honorary college football team for this section. This ar = ticle was written by J. F. McKale at | Official Football Guide and will be the the request of the editor of Spalding $ only article dealing with college foot ball in this section that will appear in the 1920 guide
 This is the third successive year that Coach McKale has been asked to write the article relative to southwestern football. Coach McKale has seen every player in action, and the majority of 1 the teams he has seen play twice.

MILLIONS LOST EACH YEAR BY IMPROPER
 STORAGE OF COTTON

Millions of dollars are lost every year through the improper storage of cotton, according to a bulletin re- ceived here by George Gam, freight and passenger agent of this division of the Arizona Eastern railroad. The bulletin contains important excerpts from "The Traffic World" which set forth the results of government tests
 These tests disclosed the fact that a bale of cotton stored flat on the ground and exposed to the elements will lose almost half its weight in six months time. A 492-pound bale of cot ton was so stored with the result that within six months it's actual weight was reduced to 232 pounds. Another bale, properly stored, only lost two pounds weight in the same period oi time.
 Each of the seven tests under vary- ing conditions are described in The Traffic World as follows:
 These tests occurred at press no. of the St. Louis Compress company Little Rock, Ark Seven bales of cot ton were purchased by the department of agriculture and stored under vari- ous conditions from November 25 1918, to June B, 1919. Weekly ob-  servations were conducted and com plete reports prepared upon the con- dition of the cotton throughout the period.
 Briefly, here is what the tests dis closed:
 Bale No. i, fully protected in ware house, weighed 4s4 pounds at tht start and had a net marketable weigh of 492 pounds when reconditioned a the end of the test.
 Bale No. ?, exposed on dunnage ant turned after each rain, or once week, dropped in net marketable cot ton from 4s7 pounds to iS0 pounds (Seven pounds lost)
 Bale No. 8, on dunnage on edge covered with tarpaulin and left with out further attention during test dropped from 4s9 to 4s5 pounds. tFoul pounds lost)

SEAT SALE FUR MICE
 NE|LSONCONCE AT
 ELKs ID OPEN TO-DAY

The seat sale for the Alice Nielsen concert at the Elks theater on Friday opens at the Elks box office this morn- ing at nine o'clock. There is bound to be a big demand for seats. Miss Niel sen is the best liked of all the American prima donnas.
 One often hears the question: "For how many years did Alice Nielsen reign as the queen of light opera in Amer ica?" ''Oh, it must have been ten," the average theater going music lover will answer, which shows what an impress sion Miss Nielsen made, for it was only after five seasons-two with the Bos- tonians and three at the head of the Alice Nielsen Opera company-that she left the light opera field to gain equal honors in grand opera. But the parts she sang remain fresh in the minds of all who saw them-the red sash and the black knickers of Yvonne in The Sere- nade," the wooden shoes and the Dutch cap of The Singing Girl" and the three changes in "The Fortune Teller Irma, the flower girl, Musette. the Gypsy and Fedora, her twin brother. And though an honorable career in grand opera and concert extending the world over lies between those days and the present, it is the same dainty, petite Alice Nielsen. able at this mo- ment to step into those same old cos tunes. who will sing the following pro- gram at the Elks next Friday night Incidentally. she is bringing the same beautiful voice and the same unusual ability.
