Versatile Attack.
The team is said to possess a yer.
satile running and overhead attack al
most impossible to stop and the fact
that in four games this season Centre
has run up the astonishing score of
241 to nothing, indicates it's scoring
power.

against the powerful Harvard team,
however, cannot be foretold
Since the beginning of football at
Harvard in 1874 the university teams
have played, up to the Oregon game
of last New Years day which was
won to 6 total of $50 games. OF
this number 327 were won, 81 lost

CARTER MAY PILOT
QUAKER WARRIORS
IN BUTLER CONTEST

With only one day intervening be-
tween them and the Butler game,
Coach Move sent his squad through a
stiff workout to condition them for the
hard contest that is expected. Scrim-
mage was held and most of the men
were tried out for short time. Every
precaution was taken to see that no
one was injured.
The Quakers are taking the Butler
battle seriously and will be ready to
give a good account of themselves
when they line up against the Blue and
White. Most of the men are in good
condition but several have injuries re-
ceived in the hard battle last week
that will keep them from playing at
their best

the little town down the National road
has it that they have their hearts set
on taking the scalp of the Eagles in
the game scheduled at Exhibition
park for Sunday afternoon. The
whole town, village dog and water
from the old town pump will be
brought along to help import the nee
essary ingredients for victory.
The Eagles are looking on this game
with a covetous eye, also, and will
make every effort to duplicate the
performance of three weeks ago, when
they won by comfortable margin.
Neidheiscr and Peters, the strong
Connersville battery that has been
making a showing this season. have
been secured by Centerville to handle
the Eagles. The local club has made
no great change in their lineup. Haas

Centre College Gridron Wizards
Face HARVARD Eleuen SATURDAY.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22-An intersec-
tional football game of far more than
usual interest features the gridiron
schedule of Saturday, in the meeting
of Harvard university and Centre
college, of Danville, Ky.
Harvard elevens hold the UNIQUE
position of facing from time to time,
the leading opponents of football from
distant sections of the country.
In facing Centre college at Cam
bridge, however, there are unusual
features which separate the comir g
interscctional games which brings to-
gether the supposedly best elevens of
two portions of the country.
Attention was first focused upon
Centre college several seasons ago
sided scores began to be published.
Systematic Coaching.
Gradually the report spread that
the football elevens developed in the
little Presbyterian institution of less
than 400 students, located in the Ken
lucky blue grass region, were not the
result of freak or haphazzard condi-
tons. but the fruition of a system
which compares favorably with those
governing the leading colleges and
universities Of the country.
When the season Of 1919 closed it
was seen that Centre had rolled UP
4S5 points against % for her nine op.
ponents, and that two members OF
the team were selected for the all
American eleven, with a third placed
among the substitutes of that myth
lcal, all-star combination, football
followers throughout the country be-
gan to take Centre college seriously.
She was invited to arrange a game
with Harvard and quickly accepted
. Early today the Centre college foot
ball squad accompanied by more than
500 rooters including the president of
the college, members of the faculty
and number of staid kentucky bust
nessmen, passed through this city on
their way to Boston. The team is in
charge of the coach, Charles Moran,
who also holds the position of Nation
al league baseball umpire in the sum-
mer time. While the invading COM
bination is not boastful it is apparent
that Centre supporters expect the
team to win.
South Backs Eleven.
The entire south is backing the
eleven. Other college coaches and
players helped to put the finishing
touches on the training before the
squad left Danville. Scores of special
telegraph wires will carry every de-
tail of the play from Cambridge to
southern cities, where the game will
be followed by thousands OF football
enthusiasts.
Nine of the eleven players who
formed the regular team of last sea
son and twelve varsity letter men are
in the squad including Captain Alvin

HURST GETS DECISION
over MARTY REESE

Ray Hurst Of FIT. Thomas, KY, was
given the newspaper decision over
Marty Reese, Of Mill Creek Valley, o..
in their 10round bout at the Eagles
hall Thursday night. The fight was
even at most times four rounds going
to each man and two being even.
Hurst floored Reese for the count of
nine twice in the second round and
finished the fight strong.
Reese was found to have a broken
right hand after the fight which he
said happened in the second round.
This slowed up his attack and forced
him into clinches many times when it
seemed as if he were trying to stall.
Billy Ray. of Cincinnati, easily best
ed Kid Drenner, of Covington, KY, in
the first preliminary bout of six
rounds. The boys were lightweights
weighing in at 122 pounds. They mix
ed things up during the last rounds
much to the amusement of the spec
tators.
Good PreIirninaries.
Young Sandow and Fri Butler both
of Cincinnati furnished some excite
ment in their eight rounds of milling.
Sandow was given the~shade because
of his fast footwork asd seeming ease
in boxing. This bout furnished the
best exhibition of scientific fighting
during the evening.
In the main go Reese had the ad-
vantage in skill but Hurst would come
back for more ever time. Hurst
forced the fighting most of the time
and stopped some good passes as a
result. The blow that floored Reese
was straight from the shoulder blow
which caught Reese on the point of the
chin. 1t was neat pass and came
near ending the evenings entertain
ment.
All the matches were clean fought

they ahve been great rivals in the past.
The Little Giants hope to defeat the
Engineers by greater margin than
did Earlham.
Notre Dame and Valparaiso will
meet at South Bend with the Cath
olics as the favorites. Valparaiso,
while presenting a strong lineup, so
for has not demonstrated its ability to
cope with elevens in the class of Notre
Dame.
Franklin will have a hard opponent
at Greencastle. The Methodists this
year have a fighting eleven and are
out to hang up a record.

SAM D. HAS A SCARE.

Sam D. May, representative in this
section for the Bluefield Hardware
Co., had an experience the other day
on one of the rough roads in the
northern part of the county that fore
ibly reminded him Of the dangers and
pitfalls that lay m the path of the
travelling public. He was returning
to town in his jitney, and crossing a
rough section of road the exhaust
pipe was knocked off and the sparks
from the engine set fire to the gaso-
line near the carbureter. AS soon as
he discovered what was up he took
distance and surveyed the situation,
and thought of his happy home and
the possibility Of separating himself
from his mortal sphere in case he re-
turned and endeavored to extinguish
the fire. After further dcliberation
he returned, secured bucket from
the rear of the car, filled it with
water and easily put out the fire. The
car is now undergoing repairs.

In Mass-Meeting Leading Citi
zens Sign Pledge to Assist in
Enforcement of Laws and
Remedying of Evils.

a meeting of men was held in the
town OF Grarham Tuesday night, call.
ed by the Rev. Thos. Priddy, who is
holding. revival there, for the pur-
pose OF waging campaign against
the Illicit sale of liquor and the con-
sequent law violations that have pre-
vailed III that town for sometime.
torty-seven of the leading citizens
OIL Graham responded to- the call and
signed the pledge to- assist in the
stamping out of the evil. These for
ty-seven men. were summoned before
the grand jury and appeared here
yesterday. Four Of them were exam
lned by the jury, and the rest were
discharged. The information secur-
cd by these four was sufficient to ena-
bic Commonwealths Attorney Spratt
to take action that may result in dis
closures winthin the next few days
that will be beneficial to law enforce
ment. a Graham paper stated TINT
Judge Kegley had summoned the cit
liens of Graham, here, whereas the
subpeonas were issud at the Instance
of the Commonwealth Attorney. The
Court House was filled yesterday with
Graham people-prcachers, LAWYERS.
merchants, doctors, and Just plain
citizens to give evidence before the
grand jury.
One citizen of Graham expressed
the opinion that this move on the
part of the Rev. Mr.. Priddy was the
beginning of movement in the coun
ty to enlist the support of the best
people in the enforcement of the
law, and that the move would spread
over the county and over the State.
The commemorative Attorney is
helpless, says this citizen, unless the
people give him their support and
assistance in stamping out this evil.
Persons with even ordinary pow
ers of observation" said the Graham
man, have wondered how the liquor
seller can ply his trade, and the boot
egger enjoy his harvest without mp
parent difficulty, in the face of both
State and Federal laws. The trouble
seems to be that many of the lead
ing citizens and public servants, and
the people generally have delegated
the enforcement of tn law to the Fed
raj authorities. Mr.. Good Citizen will
become aroused one of these days
and woe be unto those who may be-
come victims of his wrath. Such n
sentiment as this must prevail be-
fore the country can be rid of the
iniquitous law violater and criminal
who is making the prohibition laws
of tho State and Nation appear fare
