Western will take another chance
at Central tomorrow afternoon at

expected to be the best of the high
school championship games staged
thus far.
Central has played in first class
style all season, going from win to

first class pitching from krupp,
Brinkman, Walker. and Davis. the
Central lads have been backed in ex-

The Mt. Pleasant lads have won
eleven games, and lost but one this
season. In the brief three-inning
struggle in the rain against Tech they
looked far and away better than the
Manual Trainers.
Western has played in-and-out base
ball. The boys from across Rock
Creek have won seven and lost two so
far. They have played their string
out to the end, and are capable OF
giving Central all it Is looking for.
Tomorrow's game will probably find
krupp and Russell in the battery
points for Central. and either Hair or
Brooks pitching and Cary or McPhcr-
son catching for Western. The game

1t was a great day for the homo
folks. They came in droves, packing
the stands and right field pavilion and
leaking out upon the grass. Circus
seats and common, ordinary planks
front of the stand, and all enjoyed
themselves, watching Walter Johnson
finging the home team to victory.
Clark Griffith was one busy guy.
Acting in a presidential capacity, he
was watching things out around the
gate and in the big stand. That was
a real job for the day, too.
Acting In his managerial capacity,

The political winds seem to be blow
ing only one way in Kansas this year
Ito a Harding landslide. Contrasted
with the troubles which came to the
Republicans at this stage of the cam
paign four years ago. the present news
from the counties produces a grand
and glorious feelin'. Just at this
time the political dope sheets indicate
ticket in Kansas.
Except in the industrial cities of the
state, there is seemingly just one echo
of the ampaign-Harding. And four
years ago the correspondents who
frailed Senator Capper for five weeks
as he went to the grass roots with his
home spun talks, came home with
returns that the Hughes thing was
slipping and the nominee was away
behind the state ticket. This year
the situation is reversed.
According to all present indications
Senator Harding will come out of
Kansas with a majority greater than
that accorded Governor Allen. He
may keep abreast-even finish ahead
of Senator Curtis and the general
state ticket.
