Local Team Knocked
Out of a Ball Game

Assistant Manager A. G. Nc
Closkey of the local baseball
team had a game arranged with
the Winslow aggregation to be
played at that place on Sept. 7.
The boys were making prepara-
tions to make the trip, which
they decided would be in autos,
when a telegram came from the
Winslow bunch saying that they
had no team there. If the me
tropolis. " with a boasted popu-
lation of four thousand, cannot
procure a sufficient number of
ball players for one team, they
must be sadly in need of en-
thusiasm and ginger" down
that way. Snowflake, which has
less than 1000 inhabitants, can
get together two or three good
ball teams any old time. Or,
was it that the Winslow boys
became afflicted with that some
times frigid ailment, ''coldfeet?"
The local team had an invita-
tation to play the soldiers at Ft.
Apache, the boys at the post
agreeing to give them a banquet
and dance by way of apprecia-
ton if they would visit them,
but having already negotiated
with Winslow for a game, could
not accept the soldiers offer
and it was too late to get word
to them after hearing from the
Winslow contingent.

Educational Institution
Worthy Of Patronage

The S. S. A. has an enviable
record in the past for having
among it's graduates men and
women of character and worthy
accomplishments.
Among its lights are students
who have been honored with the
following citations in schools of
higher education: Presidents of
Glasses, Dramatic and Debating
Managers of college grade, and
citations for efficiency at grad
uation. We have the distinction
of having three of, the graduates
of the Brigham Young Univer-
sity this year.
Look up the men and women
whom society and business point
out as successful and note the
large number who claim member
ship in the Alumni of the S. S. A.
We are proud of this glowing
record of the past and we are
simultaneously aware of another
fact, that the brightest year in
the history of the Academy is
about to open. Sept. p is the
date that school starts with the
promise of an unprecedented
impetus.
The corps of teachers is a
guarantee of the faithful service
the students will receive. We
are specially to be congratulated
on having so efficient a Princi-
pal. Prof. Silas l.. Fish's sue
cess in school management and
in classroom work can hardly be
spoken too highly of. Everyone
recognizes the recommendation
his principalship gives the school
There is little question that
the enrolment will be the larg-
est in history. 1t is expected
that the spirit of reconstruction
will take hold of people through
out the Stake and that, in prepa-
ration for doing their part, boys
and girls will come to the Acade-
my in unparalleled Numbers.
Come early and get the full
benefit.

,',-r ,.stimated to contain between
@. hundred and four hundred

rnc5 r,~1,s smaller herd in the Ora
rso Mountains near Globe; and
lSo+ tba state of New Mexico
o.eo has a small herd near the
saad ~. Of the Pecos River. There
~. also several small herds in
,,jrate pastures in northern
New Mexico.
Bringing a herd of elk into a
,,nc5ing, farming country is
Tke getting a bear by the tail
and not knowing how to let
roose. The comparatively small
hand of elk that was brought
into northern Arizona, in 1913,
has. by good fortune and the
circumstance of having been lib
Grated in a very isolated region,
crown with remarkable rapidity
into what is really one of the
important small herds of the
country. Now elk have a pestif-
pro0s habit of running in large
bands, of demolishing all ordi-
nary fences, and Of exhibiting
an astonishing preference for
cultivated crops over any known
wild forage. Whenever elk are
introduced into a farming COM
munity, there is a howl Of pro-
test a wall Of complaint, dam
an claims against tbs state. and
the damnation of elk enthusiasts
in particular and game enthus-
lasts in general.
The Pine Cone believes that
the day of the elk as a free
ranging game animal is forever
gone, and that the species should
in general be confined to the ma
tOnal parks.
Those ardent enthusiasts who
want to bring the elk back into
every mountain range of the
Southwest do not realize that
their program, if carried out,
would endanger the whole game
protection program. From ours
ms the elk, the local settlers
would soon learn to curse game
conservation in general.
Believing that game conserva-
ton should be governed by COM
mon sense, the Pine Cone sug-
ge's the following program:
" Stop the further intro
uucuon OF elk absolutely until
