New York's "Federation of
Jewish Charities" is living
through a severe crisis. It has
no funds, and it needs more than
ever. The deficit in the Fedora
ton is great and people have no
money to make it up. .r.
1t is planned to start a new
drive, but little practical results
are expected, because there is lit
tie money in the pockets of the
people so that a drive cannot
bring in much.
! Another proposal was to accept
from business men merchandise
or articles of trade rather than
money. The plan is a good one,
since many~of such articles are
needed by the Jewish institutions
(which the Federation maintains.

critical period will soon pass, and
our Jews will continue to sup

Denver, April 30-"Range man
agement experiments to determine
maximum carrying capacities and
beef production have been under
taken by the Colorado Agricultural
college in cooperation with the Uni
ted States forest service,' said Lynn
H. Douglas, grazing inspector of the
local forestry office, who recently re-
turned from Fort Collins.

period of five or six years and deter
mine the best methods Of handling
foothill range, will be conducted on
the agricultural colleges 600-acre
pasture by E. J. Maynard, who is in
charge of animal Investigations for
the college.
"There are thousands Of acres of
pasture land owned by stockmen in
Colorado, which are similar to those
on which the experiments are being
conducted, and the results of the
work will be valuable to the ranch
men," said Mr. Maynard, who went
to Sedalia, Colorado, last night to
select steers for the management
tests.
The steers will be weighed periodi-
cally after being turned into the pas
ture which is merely fenced, native
range and the condition of the forage
will be inspected. When grazing
should begin in the spring and the
length of time it should last will be
important points determined in con-
nection with the experiments.
After the Investigations are COM
pleted, the agricultural college will
compile and publish bulletin which
will give the results of the work.

GRADS GETTING
ORGANIZED FOR
ALUMNI BATTLE
Culver Masters of 1920 Team Calls
Meeting of Prospects for
Friday Night.

Culver Masters, fullback of the
1920 high school football team, will
direct the alumni aggregation at
Augustai.a field Saturday afternoon
against the present upholders of
the crimson and gold. Masters is
busy lining up talent, with which
he hopes to make showing against
the younger and more hardened
lads. Among the stars OF years
gone by that he hopes to pit against
the school team are Jack During,
Claude Mercer, Pat Sexton, Butch
Herbert. Meyer Morris, Bill Glea-
son, Frier McCollister and Morri-
son. He has the assurance of these
men that they will be on hand, but
of course needs many more before
he can feel sure of having IL men
on the field when the final whistle
blows. All others who would like
to test their unusued ability should
report at the meeting called for
Friday night at 1880 at the high
school gymnasium for the purpose
of getting acquainted with a set of
signals.
SOdCu hIEHLHel Is giving HIS
charges plenty of signal drill, so
that there will be no slip-up in this
respect on the day of the game.
He says the youngsters are conf
dent they can take the measure of
the former greats. They are count
ing on better teamwork and better
condition to Offset added years and
greater experience. 1t should be a
battle worth watching.
Hunter, a newcomer to the high
school grid circles, held down a
backfeld position at last evenings
workout. The manner in which he
carries the ball, coupled with speed,
is expected to earn him a first team
berth before long. Shelter is dis
playing dash and pepper at the
quarterback position Many critics
expect him to develop into one of
the best prep school field generals
in the state this fall. He has the
physique and necessary fighting in
stinCt to make him valuable Olson
is also displaying consistent form
behind the line. together with An
derson and Rincke. The line is a
beefy affair and should prove its
HeLLle III the OpeuluS game.
The second team. or scrubs, is
to be taken care of this fall in the
matter of games. Contests between
the lightweights and East Moline
high teams have been arranged,
and it is expected dates can be
agreed upon with the Moline sec
ond team.
Coach Kimmel believes in every
player knowing how to tackle. Con-
sequently. he is putting the tackle
dummy through much hard usage.
