IN CLASH TODAY
AIl-Americans and Northeast
Gridiron EIevens Meet at
PhilIies' Ball Park

The Army Navy game in New York
is not the only gridiron classic being
staged this afternoon. Right here in
this city followers Of football will have
an opportunity of seeing the famous
Union A. A. all American eleven, Of
Phoenixvillc. in action when they stack
up against the Frankford eleven ut the
Phillics' Ball Park at 2 80 p. m.
Every one in Frankford has been
talking about today's game since Mon
day, when the Phocnixville lads nc
ccptcd tbe challenge of the Yellow
jackets. The Northeast eleven feels
confident that it can end the season as
runner-up to Heine Miller's ll-Ameri-
cans. and is anxious to make better
showing than Holmcsburg, which played
Union last Saturday, but lost 1870.
Seldom does the football public have
an opportunity to see as many all
American players on one team as are
represented in the Union outfit. The
lineup contains such headliHerS as
Iud Wray, Heinie Miller Lou Little
and Hobey Light. of Penn: Johnny
Scott, Bodic Weldon and Joe DuAlOc, Of
Lafayette; Swcde YOungstrum. of Dart
mouth, and Stan Cofall. the giant full
back and former all American at Notre
Dame. The playing Of Cofall last Sat
urday was the talk Of the thousands that
witnessed the game.
The Yellowjackcts boast backfield
that rates among the best in independ-
cnt ranks. Bob Remmy, captain and
quarterback, is q good general. has not
I Ill nd ID ha rI
man to stop in broken field. Nemzik is
line plunger of more than ordinary
ability, and Kaufman, the burly full
back. has ability, strength and nerve,
a combination that has allowed him to
gain ground almost at will Mellow,
! the other halfback, Is also good.
In Shirar and Ray Miller, FrankfOrd
has two exceptional ends, both being
good at catching forward passes and
sure deadly tacklers. SmOndet, ut
center, Is expected to make I.ud Wray
know he was in a game, Frankford fol-
lowers say. AS in number OF other
big games this season it will be brother
against brother when Heinie Miller and
Ray Miller come together and bets are
being offered freely favoring Ray.
All arrangements have been made for
the posting of the Army Navy score
as play progresses. The new ball will
be put in play by Receiver of Taxes
Freeland Kcndrick, who will be pre-
sented with the pigskin by Jake Gray.
The latter has awarded the ball to the
winning team at the conclusion Of the
match.
The followers of the rival forces will
reach the grounds on special train from
their respective communities. Both
will be accompanied by bands and other
musical selections will be rendered by
a soldiers jazz band, which will be on
hand for the occasion.

CROP IMPROVEMENT
NOTED IN MIDDLE WEST
Associated Press)

Chicago, July 13-Marked improve
ment in the principal food crops of
the middle west has been reported in
the last few weeks, in contrast to un-
favorable prospects earlier in the
season which gave rise to some alarm.
There is no danger that the country
will starve this year." is the COM
ment that j. R. Howard, president Of
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
tion. made on reviewing the situa-
tion.
President Howard reported that
the corn prospect was now very fair
and that wheat was really better
Corn production promised to be a lit
tie under normal. but it was well cul-
tivated and clean and would turn out
with good weather in July and Au-
gust.
While the wheat crop would moi
be normal. the crop condition was
very fair. As against lighter acre,
age there was heavy carry over. Mr.
Howard estimate dthat 80 per cent
of last years wheat remained OF
Kansas farms today. In Kansas anC
Oklahoma a better wheat crop thar
last year is expected.

MR.. wYcKoFF's MISE IKE

Editor Star: read IN last weeks
Star the article written by Allan
Rodgers for some soldiers graves.
Also an article written some time ago
by him on the same subject.
And suppose this is a fair sample
of the way some men blame the gov
ernment for every conceivable thing
from now back to "thee- quarters of a
century" This man should be better
posted on what he is writing about
before he blames the government toO
much.
What are the facts in the case?
There is a fine monument erected by
the government to the memory of
the soldiers killed at the DAde mas
sacre. The monument is in the gov
ernment cemetery at st. Augustine.
There are good many names on the
monument / do not know Just how
many, but presume that they are
all on that were killed at that time.
And there is no reason to think that
there are any of the soldiers bodies
left out there in the woods at Fort
King. The government does not do
business that way. Look at the graves
OF the soldiers killed near Lookout
mountain, in Tennessee. those that
fought on the southern side as well
as those on the northern side. Very
much better than our private ceme-
teries around here and cared for by
the near relatives and friends of
those who have passed away from
this life. Jno. S. Wyckoff.
Citra, July 18th, 1920.
Mr.. Wyckoff is mistaken. 1t is
more than forty miles from Fort King
to the scene of Dade's massacre. The
lsoldiers killed at Fort King are buried
there yet. And Allan Rodgers is not
given to blaming his government. He
| is a loyal citizen and his eldest son is
buried in France, the very first OF
our Marion county boys to die there.

"a big time. John Oglesby, banker,
fired off a pistol and shot this young
Dutchman in the eye. Jimmie saw it.
So did about four others.
@Then the German boys case was
taken up and it was fixed for him to
sue for the worth of his eye. The
other side got every witness to leave
town but Jimmie. They wanted him
TO take some money and leave the
county, but Jimmie said:
No, sir. I'm going to stick to that
poor Dutchman,' and he did. He made
a good witness, recollecting every
thing that had happened. and the
German boy won his suit
Why He Was Hired
paul Sorg heard Jimmie testify
and he said when Jimmie came back
from Cincinnati:
He made hell of a good wit
ness and he'll make a hell of good
secretary and he hired him.
After that-after that-Oh. / can't
reeollect nothing any more. A word
or two and forget
Whatever it was old "Gib" couldn't
remember, Jimmie Cox did go to work
for Representative Sorg as his sec
rctary. He stayed with him until
about 1898. when he resigned, with
the friendship of Sorg and the idea
of going back into the newspaper
business as publisher.
The Dayton News was for sale.
1t was owned by banker named
Silrms, who couldn't see any advan-
tage in owning a plant that cost him
money and brought him no pleasure.
Sorg assisted young Cox to finance
the deal. which didn't require a great
deal of money.
Jimmie was married then to Mary
Harding and they had a couple of
children. With a family dependent
on him he worked furiously. "Doc"
Loves and his ring of politicians were
the targets of the shafts in the News,
but the objective of Cox was circula-
tion, and The News began to get it.
