lin was always in trouble but the
necessary hit did not come. On the
other hand Rowland was moving OPP
posing batters.
In the fifth frame Wentworth took
a big lead. Terry was safe on an
error. jenkins walked. Milan, bat
ting for Morrison, slammed out a
liner that was fumbled. This error
filed the BASES. Amos hit a hot one
to third. The visitors inield blew
up. Grouse pegged to first, Brazil
muffed the ball and before he could
recover it, three men crossed the
plate.
In the fifth Wentworth threatened
again. Daniels was hit. Hampton
and Bradfield got safe on errors. With
none down it looked as if more run
were certain. Tomlin was yanked
and Brazil sent to the box. He saw
ed the game by striking out Terry,
Jenkins, and Milan in short order,
In the sixth Terry scored when he
knocked a clean three-bagger and
the ball was thrown over third in at
tempt to catch him.
Rowland, however, was beginning
to weaken under the strain. In the
ninth they got to his delivery and
three hits, coupled with two walks
enabled the visitors to tie the score,
And in the fatal tenth, Brazil's single
scored the final run from third. Our
men could not do anything with
Brazil.
Every Wentworth man played gooC
ball. No one has any kick coming
and the bleachers showed real spirit
Brazil and Brunt starred for M. M

Wentworth's baseball team dropp-
ed two games this week to Missouri
Military Academy, the first by the
score 8 to 8, the second, 5 to A. The
opening game was an easy win for
the visitors but the last was won on
ly after Rowland had begun to weak
en- in the ninth and Brazil had stopp-
ed the attack of the W. M. A. team
by replacing Tomlin in the pitchers
box. The days were cold and cloudy
and were very disagreeable for spec
tators. Cornelius and Rowland both
pitched good games, but their sup
port was not of the best, especially
in the first game. The real strength
of the M. M. A. team lies in Brazil,
their giant pitcher. When he enters
the box, the amateur character of
the game ceases. He pitched the first
contest and was called to save the
game in the second. He went to the
mound in the sixth when Wentworth
had jammed the bases with none out
and he famed three opposing bats
men.
First Game.
The first game began with Corne-
Illus of W. M. A. opposing Brazil of
M. NJ. A. In the very first inning
Mexico scored. Brunt struck out.
Cooke let the last strike get by him.
He advanced to second on an out
and to third when Brazil was safe
on an error. He scored on a wild
throw. Thus the first run was made
and that without the semblance Of
a hit. And it continued in that way
during the rest of the game. The
number of earned runs on both sides
were two and Wentworth got the
same number of hits, eight, as M. M
A., but errors, errors, errors, told the
story.
The visitors scored three runs il
the third on two errors and hits BY
Brazil and Fuller. Another was add
ed in the fifth on errors, another il
the sixth the anne way, one more il
the eighth, and two in the ninth. Tn,
last two scores we're made on clear
hits by Fuller, Brunt, and Stewart.
Wentworth counted in the fourtl
when Terry got safe on an error
advanced while Jenkins and Morri
son were whiting, and scored wheI
Amos slammed out one that was to
hot to handle. The next run came i
the eighth on three scorching single
by Jenkins, Milan, and Amos. /
the ninth, Hampton got safe on a
error, went to third on Bradfelds hi
and crossed the plate when Jenkin
singled.
Hampton, jenkins, and Amos bal
ted we'll for w. M. A., getting tw
hits each. Brazil starred for M. n
A., by his pitching and hitting. TheI
were no fielding stars. Wentworth
team made several costly error
Cooke, Amos, and Terry all contribu
ed bad hobbies. Cornelius pitched
good game, striking out eight me

Second Game.


The second game was a hard n
to lose, for w. M. A. held the lead
until the ninth inning and the visitors
won out in the tenth. Rowland start
ed out in great style, moving down
the Mexican batters right and left.
Tomlin, who was pitching for M. M.
A., was wild and the yelling kept up
the ~grandstand made him wilder.
The result was that he could not To-
cate the plate, walked many men,
and hit others.
Mexico went out in one, two, three
order. But Wentworth got danger
u the very first inning. Two men,
Bradheld and Terry, reached second
anG third but the scoring hit was
lacking. NJ. M. A. counted n in
the second. Brazil got to third on err
rors and crossed the plate on Cookies
wild throw.

There is a big difference
between the yield of crops
planted with an inaccurate plan
ter and one that's accurate. You
use the same amount of seed
but the difference in the crop
often amounts to as much as
FIVE, six or seven-yes, and
more bushels per acre.
Here is a point we want you
to think over: If a planter

ADJUSTMENTS
DANGEROUS RAYS"
 BY MRS. RINEHART |S
 AT COLUMBIA TODAY

Dangerous Days by Mary Roberts Rinehart, is the latest of the Goldwyn Eminent Authors series. It is a novel that has been widely read throughout America and Europe. Its promise as a photoplay was recognized and this book has at last been adapted by Goldwyn. Mrs. Mary Roberts Rinehart is one of the best known authors in America and thousands of people will be eager to see her work on the screen.
 Thrilling situations in dangerous Days" give the Goldwyn actors an op- portunity to exhibit their abilities in the dramatic art and under the direc- tion of Reginald Barker an all-star cast has been gathered for this pro- duction.
 Lawson Butt, famous foir his work in several of the largest productions of today plays the lead in the role of q munition manufacturer, against whom the designings of German agents are directed. He successfully overcomes their diabolical plots and preserves his valuable store of munitions for the use of the allies.
 It is well known that while the stress Of war lay on the world like the black hand of destiny, agents of the Imperial German government were working in America prior to the nations partici- patton III the NOIlu War. 10 prevent them from joining forces with the Eng fish. French and other allies, and this story reveals how valiantly Americans responsible for the success or failure of the war strove to ward off the sim ister danger.
 Lawson Butt is supported by such well known actors and actresses as Florence Deshon, Pauline Starke H Milton Ross. Clarissa Selwynne. Frank Leigh. Barbara Castleton. Bertram Grassby and other popular favorites of motion picture audiences.
 II is only recently that the works of famous authors have been available for the screen. and GoldWyn's have the novels of many of the best known lit erarY men and women for adoption to the photoplay. There are some books that have not sufficient action in them
 for the making Of a good photoplay, and there are others that abound with action and thrilling situations Of the kind that are needed to make a picture of absorbing interest. It is from books of the latter type that the Gold UyH Eminent Authors pictures are be ' ing made.

The cost of construction, exclusive of engineering, will total in the neigh borhood of $27O,O0O for the eight and one-half miles or at the rate of a trifIe over S31, ,0O0 per mile, which, consider ing the high costs of material and labor, the peculiar conditions which had to be met. and the high character of the work accomplished, is regarded as most reasonable.
 Lack of Water Handicapped Building
 One of the handicaps of the situation was that this section of the road is en- tfrely without water. To overcome this it was necessary to lay pipe line the entire length of the project, water being obtained from the railway on one end and from city water mains on the other
 This road is of solid Portland cement concrete construction, IS feet in width. five and q half inches in thickness at the edges and six and half inches at the center, with shoulders of three feet on either side of the paved portion. This has been adopted as standard specification by the state highway de- partment as being sufficient to with stand the shock of heavy traffic. as well as providing ample passing room.
 That portion of the Bisbee-Douglas highway constructed under the Cochise county bond issue was built under the direction Of the late J C. Ryan. former
 county highway engineer, and who also represented the state as division en- gineer.
 The new work has been under the direction of W. C. GetZ. resident en- gineer. and l. P Frazier. division en- gineer. with a corps Of assistants from the state highway department.
