HigginsvilIe's SOuthpaw Gave
The Athletics a Beating.

The Athletics q beatlng.
The Higginsville team de-
feated the Lexington Athletics
Sunday on the Higginsville
grounds by the score Of 4 to o.
in the last game of the league
season. This gives the pennant
for the last half to the Higgins
vile team, who will play a post
series with the Concordia team,
winners of the pennant in the
first half.
Quiet a number of fans from
here made the trip to Higgins
vile, all of whom thought to the
last minute that Jack" Wheel
err, a local boy, who is in the
army but now home on a fur
Tough, was going to take part in
-9
the game. He had been passed
on by the big Three" two
weeks ago, making him eligible
for the last two games. A num-
Der of the local rooters let a few
"sheckles' get away from them
by thinking that way. The Ath-
letics took their fielding prac-
tice just before the game start
ed, Wheeler going to his position
in left field, and working out
there during the entire fielding
practice. He was taken out just
as the team was coming off the
field.
Forschler, Higginsville's big
left handler, held the local ag-
g~regation off all through the
game, and also hit two into the
race track himself, one for three
bases and the other for two.
Shahan, the Lexington pitcher,
was taken out and put into
center field in the seventh in
ming, Lehman going to the box
for the Athletics in the last two
innings.
The first game of the series
between Higginsville and Con-
cordia will be played at Hig-
ginsville next Sunday.

NEW MEN ON FOOT

Prospects Are Promising And
Many Are Trying Out.
N. n. a. Trumpeter.

From The ". NJ. A. Trumpeter.
simultaneously with the opening OF
school the interest in football begins
to simmer and boil. On the very
first day over fifty men answered the
call to practice and since then the
number has been greatly increased.
The goal posts are in place and it
is only a short while until the bat
Ting elevens win be tearing up and
and down the field.
But what of the prospects? They
seem to be good. There are at pres
emit only four letter men in uniform
as last years team was nearly all
lost by graduation. These four are
Masters, guard; Mullendore, end;
Bradfeld, half; and Taubman. This
quartet has proved its worth and
Taubman and Bradfeld are consid-
cred especially fast. But some Of
the best Of last years reserves are
back in uniform and they should be
stars this year. Among these play
ers are Patrick, Reid, Haysler, Berg,
in the line and lie Flore in the back
field. Some company men are also
looking promising. Corzatt Clam
mer, and Nail should develop into
valuable men. Besides all of these
there are many new men who show
much ability. More will be said of
them next week. The team may be
a little lighter than usual but from
all appearances it viii show great
speed and stiffness. Furthermore
the men have the best kind Of fight
ing spirit and that means more than
anything else.
Coaches Wikof, Muench, and Glenn

Three STORY HOUSES
WILL Be ERECTED ON
FLAT ROOFS OF ROME
tBy Associated Press,

ROME, July 1S.-Rome will become
a city of odd appearance if the plans
for the solution Of the housing problem
proposed by some Italian engineers
are put in operation. The proposal
is to build on the fiat roofs Of most
of the buildings in Rome light houses
of three and four stories.
The engineers have placed their
ideas before Henry Colt MacClean,
United States commercial attache to
the American embassy. They have
asked that American capital become
interested in the project. The material
for the whole of the scheme, according
to the engineers suggestions, would
come from America because of the
adaptability of American light con-
struction methods in the choice OF
materials and means of assembling.
