VACATION HAS
NAUCHT TO Do
WITH A|'SQUAD
High School Closed Weak, Bst The
Football Team VIM Drfll Full
Time-Honnouth Saturday.
BIZ .ALBI AL.

Although the high school IL clos
ed this week, because Of teachers
institute, the football squad will
report every afternoon at 3o'clock.
The next game will be with Mon
mouth at Douglas park next Satur-
day. Coach Kimmel Is grooming
his boys to play strong. offensive
game and to run up . big score on
the downstate team.
The team came through the Keo-
kuk game with only minor injur-
les, although it was the hardest
fought contest that the Islanders
have played so far this year. Sat.
urday's game was the first scholas-
tic contest the locals have played.
and. after seeing what the. team
could do against q squad of its
own strength, the coach has set to
work strengthening the weak spots.
Last night long drill was held
with more than two teams out and
the same program is expected all
this week. Most Of the locals
games have been won by small
margins, with the exception Of the
Forester battle, and most Of the
drills this week will be devoted to
building up q strong scoring ma
chine.
Duncan Makes Good.
Duncan made his first appear
ance in an Islander uniform last
Saturday, and, after the showing
he made, he will probably be one
Of the strongest boys on the high
squad. He played quarter through
out the game, displacing Shelter in
that position, and showed good
form. Joe tore the ligaments in
his shoulder the second week of
practice and has had to sit on the
sidelines ever since. He is one of
the fastest men on the squad, and,
In addition, totes a mean, stiff arm
that enables him to get away. He
also is q punter and passer Of no
mean ability and will be used by
the locals In that line.
Captain Henke has apparently
been shifted to fullback to stay. In
previous games he was used In
that position only As . makeshift /;
but in last Saturdays contest he
played the whole game at full. and
Anderson was moved over from
right guard to tackle. Although
Henke is not naturally . backfleld
man. his best games being played
at tackle. he performed in good
style behind the line and ID the
best full that Is on the squad ct
the present time.
Three Rivals Well Paired.
All three tri-city teams are run
ming strong for the championship
Rock Island Is the only school
that has played through this far
in the season without losing q
game. The islanders defeated the
alumni, Greenbush A. c.. Moline
Forcsters and Keokuk. Moline wa
smothered in the first game of the
SESSION BY thu alumni, 60 to o
Since then the. "Swedes" have tax
On Spring Valley and Ottawa IN
TOW. Davenport also lost to the
alumni and has conquered Genesec
and Galesburg.
|, All the dope was upset IN the
game Saturday between Galesbufl
| and Davenport. All the chances
were for Galssburg TO have . walk
away, but the red and blue squad
won, 81 too. Many arc inclined
to view this victory - . huke. but
the game mart Saturday between
Galesburg and Moline will deter
mine whether 0alesburg has Z
weak team or Davenport . strong

This il the promising array of
professional football talent that
will match BRAND and Drawn with
the Independents. Sundays game
will provide the hrsf real test for
both teams. The game ought to be
. darb In point Of general interest.
The Independents have put three
contenders out Of the champion
ship running BY overwhelming
scores. The Staleys have played
only two games with mediocre
teams. As q team Of all-stars pick
ed from a wide college and pro-
fessfonal field. the Starchmakers
look formidable enough to oppose
the pick Of the professional field
Thereby hangs q proverbial tale
The Independents have met and de-
feated two soAcalled all-star aggre-
cations so far this season. The
class Of those victims was con-
vincing enough on paper, but II
failed to Withstand the acid test on
the gfidfron.
Teamwork . Mystery.
It 10 admitted that the Staleys
have . formidable eleven, but this
has been advanced solely upon pa
per estimates. With the teamwork
. virtue. the Staleys will prove q
good match for the Independents
on Sunday afternoon at Douglas
park. Without teamwork-Well,
there are Muncie and Hammond
to sympathize with them.
There is nothing quite 80 discon-
certing as to compute the chances
Of an unknown quantity in the
realm Of sport. Even the most as
tute calculations are often the most
susceptible to upsets. The fact that
the Stalcys have been developing
an 11-mAn brand of teamwork
would do justice to all their ad-
vance notices. Also, the fact that
they have scored only 4 little more
than enough to win over lesser
teams should be no criterion
against them.
The Staley Manufacturing COM
pany OF Decatur has gone to end
less expense to organise . winner
in the professional football field
Money is no object; furthermore. II
will not be. II money can buy
teamwork-better still. perfect it
the Staleys will give them all
run for the worlds title.

CAMPBELL FUNERAL HELD
Ex-Service Men at Funeral of Calhoun
 Man Killed In Action

Anniston, November 23.-(SpecIal.)- Ex-service men in uniform, with hell nets and side arms, attended the fun eral Sunday afternoon of Sergeant Samuel N. Campbell, the first Calhoun soldier to lose his life in action over seas in the World war. Funeral ser vices for the local soldier, whose body had been brought back to his home from England Saturday, were held in the First Baptist church and a large congregation assembled to honor the memory of the hero. After the church service the casket draped in an Amer ican flag, was taken to Pine Grove cemetery, under guard of honor com posed of ex-service men. At the grave Rev R. E. Zackert, state chaplain Of the American Legion, conducted the service impressively. salute was fired over the grave and taps were sounded as the body of the local soldier was consigned to the grave.
 Sergeant Campbell received fatal in juries in an airplane accident in Eng land in May, 191S dying in an English hospital from injuries received ;n that disaster
