out Ike Bartb; Of Albuquerque,

as a bad move politically but
they saw no other way. They
didn't need to throw him out for
they had all the majority they
could use any way and in doing
It they have given him that, we
believe will make him the recog-
nized leader Of the Democratic
party in New Mexico in 1870. If
it does, we shall feel that the
hand of Providence is in it all.
With Barth as the leader and a
few old has-beens discarded, the
Democrats and Independents
who would be Democrats if the
party is rid of its fossils, can
easily control this state. Of
course it makes it harder when
the party now in power has all
the state funds to manipulate

they can be beaten despite that.
The following are a few of the
things Bartb told them in >his

STERLING HIGH
HERE SATURDAY
Local Team Is Not Expecting Hard
Game in View of Beating Mo-
line Gave Sterling.
BY "PIGSKIN PETE"

Rock Island high school foot
ball squad will meet Sterling at
Douglas park next Saturday. As
Moline defeated Sterling 50 to 0
the Islanders are not expecting a
hard time coping victory. If Rock
Island can score more points than
Moline did dope will show that
Rock Island is the better team of
the two. The game will be called
at 2:30 instead of 3 o'clock so as
to allow the Sterling team time
to catch their train.
Olsen, star halfback, will prob
ably not be seen in suit until the
Davenport game. In the Moline
contest he was injured and it was
thought best to allow him to rest
up for the Iowa contest In spite
of bad weather conditions, the Is
landers have been hard at work
every night and are improved con-
siderably, especially in the break
ing up of forwards.
There have been rumors floating
about that the game with Moline
may be contested and may be play
ed over, but nothing definite can be
discovered as yet. If the two
schools do meet in a post-season
battle it will be some fight.

ZUPPKE DRIVES
uLINI IN COLD
DRILLING RAIN

Urba1a. Ill. Oct 3O.-Bob
Zuppke drove the Illini in a cold
drilling rain last night, but the
weather had no effect on the
morale of the athletes. A pro-
tracted session against the fresh
men, who impersonated the Ma
rooms, was held to school the Illini
on Chicago tactics.
1t is evident that Milt Olander
and Laurie Walquist are not to be
called on for much work this Week
Olander,. however. will be back at
his tackle job again, while Wal
quist undoubtedly will start in the
backfield Last nights arrangement
included Depler at center, Apple
gran and MOhr at guards, and Ross
Petty at Olander's tackle. SmOth
was given another trial at end.
Zuppke will not settle on his
lineup until Friday. There is a
chance that either Smith or Doepel
will be seen at an end, provided Al
MOhr is transferred to guard.
Doepel played well in the Wiscon-
sin game. but Smith has had less
experience.
Zuppke will call off hard work
after today's practice and spend the
rest of the time in formation drills.

positions. They smash interfer-

turning the runner to the inside, to

Both are close followers of the
ball. This was shown in last Sat

among the best. They are heavy,
