They are fit and trim. Hargiss re-

bail, have staged a mighty comeback.
They have three more games on
their schedule. one with Washburn,
then Baker, and the last, the Turkey

Baker cannot stop them, we think.
Altho dope never holds on the annual
Thanksgiving day battle with the two
schools in Emporia, the College men
are not likely to whip the fast Normal

So it's up to WaShburn to put the
brake on the Normal machine, and
put it on hard.

not been defeated this year. All their
games have been won by large scores
and their goal line crossed only
once-by Pittsburg.
Coaches Schabinger, formerly of C.
of E., and Hargiss of the Normal are
two of the cIeverest coaches in the
conference. They are shrewd enough
not to rate the Ichabod aggregation
as a weak team. They realize fully
that the game will be a hard one, but
both expressed confidence in the abil-
ity of their ~ ellow-Jackets."
Washburn's record thru this years
conference race has been checkered
one-full of upsets and not a few re-
Versals-but the Ichabods have a fine
machine.
Entering the first game of the sea-
son against Kansas university with a
line that was the same from end to
end as the old championship line of
1920, Washburn suffered a crushing
blow when the Jayhawkers won, % to
7. A tumble by K. u. and a recovery
by Crawford of Washburn made the
only Ichabod counter.
The Ichabods entered their second
game with Pittsburg Normal. They
were defeated 81 to z, a sickening
game. The Pittsburg men played
smooth, well oiled ball, while WASH
burn fumbled disgracefully and missed
tackle after tackle.
But the supporters of the Big Blues
realized they We're in a temporary
slump, a fit of staleness, and the next
game with Ottawa saw the Ichabods
fighting tooth and toenail to retrieve
their lost power. Altho the game did
not turn to a Washburn victory,
neither did Ottawa win. The final
score was 0 to O.
Then Washburn played her next
game at home, with Baker U. She
fought-hard. The game ended with
the Blues victors-17 to IS.
Again, on the following Saturday
| the Blues won by a one point margin,
this time against Paramount, until the
Washburn game undefeated this year.
The final score was to s. Stevens's
goal from touchdown won the game.
| Fans declared it to be wonderful ex-
hibition of football. and praised loud
| ~ the prowess of the Ichabods.
Now. with their power returned, the
| support of the fans solid behind them.
Washburn enters today the hardest
game of her 1921 schedule. The Nor
mails are slated to pillow ahead into
| the final games, then to the confer
ence titles. The 1chabods think diff
| ferently. They have made a hard
! fight against the spreading germ of
| staleness and have won.
| Today's game will show If the Ia

CHICAGO. April 20-The unequal
recession in prices is still the most
notable feature of the trade situa-
| tion. The uncertainty is confusing to
buyers. Hence the circulation of the
request that business houses rubber
stamp all their outgoing mail with
Buy what you need when you

Compliance with that advice seems
to he general. Information from
many trades is that buying in small
quantities is brisk. The mail order
houses report gains. but neither vol
ume nor amount of sales indicates s
prosperity. The feeling is. however,
that there has been decided inn
proVement and the period of loss has

The condition of the farmers is
