the Normalites. The second game was won by Tempe, although they failed to double the score of the Coyotes, the NormaliteS won by a bigger margin than did Phoenix earlier in the season. These were the only games lost by either teams.
 But under all league rulings it is generally understood that the winner is determined on the matter of games won and lost, unless some other pro- vision is made. But in this instance, no other provision was made so in all justice to bother teams. it seems that an undisputable tie exists and that the only fair means to break this tie is to play a third and deciding game on some floor foreign to both teams

triton of their mothers. American Jewish relief investigators discovered new eye disease that had attacked thousands of children, beginning with blindness, resulting when long con tinued starvation had affected the muscles of the eyes.
 So the great eXpanse of ''the de- partment of the east" which sounds like any other part of the map to the people of the United States, is wilder ness of horror and desolation to the American workers in Poland who are familiar with the unbelievable Suf- fering there. In the battle against dis ease and starvation which is going on in the territory east of the Bug river, the American Red Cross is fighting the former, with medicines and doc tors and nurses, and attempts toward cleanliness, while the American Jewish relief workers have entered the lists against hunger, with soup kitchens and milk stations, and children's relief bu- reaus, established here and there, all through the vast stretch of territory.
 If all the people in the territory east of the Bug river could be fed properly at once, disease would soon disappear. doctors in this afflicted region say. If they could replace the rags which they have worn since the beginning of the war, with fresh clothing, the epidemics would cease to spread. If their living places could be made habitable and clean, it would no longer be as it is to- day the most desolate expanse of land in the world. It is toward this end that the two great organizations, one of Gentiles and the other of Jews are working hand-in- hand, differences of creed forgotten, in the great practical need that they face.
 drive for the contribution from this valley for the relief work started yes terday and is in charge of E. l.. Marks, $. J. Mickelson and Herman Lewko- witz. Only those of Jewish faith will be solicited. Others may make volun- tary contributions to any member of the committee.

CLAIMS IF TEMPE NORMAL ID VALLEY
 TITLE OVERDRAW|V
Showing of Local Team Has Been Equally as Good - Third Game Will Be Nee essary to Clear Present Muddle

The claim of the Tempe Normal school quintet to the valley basket ball title, founded solely upon the fact that it has piled up a larger aggre- gate score than has its opponent, Phoenix high, is claim new-yea even foreign-to all sound principles of athletics.
 It is not quite within sound logic how team. which to all intent and purposes, is on an equal footing with q second team in a certain athletic league, can lay stress upon the fact that it defeat this or that team by a larger score than did it's opponent
 We might take, for example, the cent race in the Western Conference football struggle Iowa defeated Min nesota by score of 14 to 3. while Illinois had to be content with a 10 to 3 victory over the same team. Yet Illinois defeated Iowa 10 to and was proclaimed champion of the Big Ten.
 There are numerous other examples that might readily be given. The Cincinnati Reds, for instance, won the worlds baseball championship last fall by defeating the White Sox in series of games, to 3. The scores, in majority of these games, were close. At frequent intervals during the sea- son, other American league teams won from the Chicago White Sox by larger scores than did the Cincinnati Reds. yet none of these teams have laid claims to the honors because of that fact.
 Is League Proposition
 Last fall. the various schools of the valley got together and organized two basketball leagues. the larger schools in one class. to be known as Class A. and the other the smaller schools, to be known as Class B.
 Phoenix high and Tempe Normal were two of the Class A teams. Un- | r-.I.@ .1,V1~ each other twice. Phoenix high won the first game, doubling the score of

COMMITTEE ID PROBE SOFT COAL PRICES IN B|TUM|NOUS FIELDS

The River Bug, which served, until recently. a boundary of the bol- shevik lightning, is today boundary of another kind.
 Its eastern shore bounds on one side the hungriest and the most diseased, and the most stricken territory in the world today. Five million people are at. the point of starvation east of the River Bug, according to figures given out by the American Jewish relief committee. and compiled by the Amer ican Red Cross, and American Jewish relief agents. A great number of them are Jews. The war has left 5000, 0,00O destitute and stricken Jews in eastern Europe. a number as great as the en- tire population of New York city. ut terly helpless. in many cases sick, in every case hungry and dependent.
 East of the River Bug these people are living in devastated houses, in stalls of old stables, on roofless plat form built for refugee families, one family to a platform. in old freight cars, in holes in the ground, or under the open sky. They are weak from many months of semi mi-starvation, for they have gone for five years without one square meal. They are still ter or-stricken from the war. Their num- Der is being reduced every day by series of the most terrible epidemics that ever swept any section of the world.
 Disease Rages
 TypEus, cholera and smallpox are all raging in the territory east of the River Bug The first and most general of these epidemics is carried simply by body lice. At least one member out of every fifth or sixth family is stricken with some form of it, as is inevitable among a people clad in five-yeaT- old rags, people who have not had a bath with soap, or change of clothing since the beginning of the war. No estimate of the actual number of those smitten with typhus in Poland has yet been compiled, but it probably is greater than in Siberia, where the American Red Cross found 100000 cases.
 Dirt and malnutrition are the two great causes of the epidemic of dis ease. All through Poland may be found children of eight or ten years old no larger than youngsters half their age ordinarily are. Two out of three infants do not survive their first year of life. The average child in the ter ritory east of the Bug river has never tasted milk, even mothers milk. American Red Cross investigators say that an abnormal number of children are born blind, because of the malnu-

". j. SULLIVAN RESIGNS
PRESIDENCY OF BOARD
COMMITTEE TO RECOMMEND A
CANDIDATE TO FILL VAcAN-
CY-NlGHT SCHOOL.

The resignation OF Walter j. Sulli-
van as president Of the Wallace Board
of trade, which had been tabled at a
previous meeting, was taken up and
accepted at the meeting of the board
at noon last Monday This action
was taken upon the urgent request of
Mr.. Sullivan. The meeting was pre-
sided over by ID. A. Callahan, vice
president who stated that Mr.. Sulli-
van had requested him to bring the
matter up and request favorable ac-
ton, since his business required his
absence from the city most of the
time and he would consequently be
unable to attend meetings of the
board of trade and give necessary at
tention to promoting the activities of
the organization. Following the ac-
ceptance of Mr. Sullivan's resignation,
II. J. Rossi placed Vice President Cal
lahan in nomination, but to this Mr.
Callahan demurred, stating that while
he was interested in the work of the
board and would continue to give it
his active support, he did not think it
desirable for a professional man to
head the organization, and besides it
was necessary for him to be away
much of the time which was a further
reason why he should not accept the
position. Other names were proposed,
hut the question was finally disposed
of by the appointment of a committee
to recommend a candidate at the next
meeting The chair appointed on this
committee Herman J. Rossi, Charles
u Seelig and Alfred J. Dunn.
Night School.
The advisability of encouraging the
establishment of a night school under
the direction of the teacher of COM
mercial courses in the high school was
brought to the attention of the board
by Robert II. Hunt, who stated that he

OCCUR O'ALENE SYNDICATE
CROSScUTTlNG SOUTH TO
lNTERSECT FLYNN VEIN

Rush }. White. manager of the
Occur d'Alene Syndicate, stated
this week that the Black Bear tun-
mel had been driven about 700 feet
since passing into the Flynn
ground and that a crosscut is now
being run south to the Flynn vein.
How far it will be necessary to
run to reach this objective can
hardly be estimated, as the cross
cut is being driven at a depth of
200O feet from the surface and
many things may have happened
in that distance to change the
dip of the vein. However. the
crosscut has now been advanced
to an extent that makes the in
tersection of the vein probable at
any time. From the portal of the
Black Bear tunnel to the present
workings in the Flynn ground is
approximately 1900 feet.
The new compressor for the
Occur d'Alene Syndicate will be
in operation before the end of the
week. Up to this time the COM
pany has been using the Black
Bear compressor. The Syndicate
holds options on control of both
the Flynn groups, aggregating
about 40 claims.

CLEVELAND CAPITAL IS
BACKING U. S. COPPER
PLANS TO BEGIN EXTENSIVE DE-

H. V. Edwards, manager of the Unit
ed States Copper company, returned
from the property of the company the
development is being done at this
time and will not be until the compile
ton of a permanent wagon road to
the property, which is now under con-
struction. The old road was washed
out. but the new one is being built in
a permanent manner and above dan
ger from high water. The distance
under construction is about nine miles
and it is expected that it will be COM
pleted this fall. The property is sit
uated on Clear creek, a tributary of
Prospect creek. and is about II miles
from Thompson, in Sanders county,
Montana. AS described by Mr.. Ed
wards the U. S. Copper vein crops out
for over 5000 feet and varies in width
from p to 40 feet showing good val
ues in copper on the surface. A tun-
mel has been run on the vein for 200
feet, disclosing an average of 3 feet
of ore that assays from 2 to 30 per
cent copper and also some values in
gold. Development of the property
will be taken up as early as practic-
able next spring, when a lower tunnel
will be run that will cut the vein
about $50 feet below the present tun-
mel. The distance to be run will be
about 1900 feet. The plans or the
include a compressor
and all necessary buildings and equip
ment for permanent and extensive de-
