Jefferson High
to Work Passes
against BenderS
Lafayette Eleven With First
Grid Team in Eleven
Years, Looks Light.

With their first football aggrega-
ton in eleven years, jefferson High
of Lafayette viii lineup against
South Bend High school in the pre-
liminary game to the big gridiron
event of the year. the Notre Dame
Nebraska tilt jefferson High has
for a number of years produced the
stronges- basketball contenders in
the state. It has been their policy
TO produce the best or not produce
at all. Lack of football material
held them back a number Of years
and it was not until this fall that
the faculty and coaches decided that
their was suitable material for a
fast going eleven.
A number of fast basketballers Of
the school comprise the gackfeld Of
the Jefersonitea The line is not
extra heavy but has withheld some
terrific assaults since the starting Of
their schedule and their coach feels
confident that he Will have little
trouble stopping the Bender war
riors.
The Lafayette squad, comprised
Of Is players arrived at the local
Y. NJ G. a. at 10 o'clock last night
and Immediately headed for their
rooms Were going to get a good
sleep and then Wen get ready to
beat this bunch to a FRAGILE" they
said.
The High school squad is not as
optimistic as possible. They have
gone into a good many games sure
that the sailing would be easy and
discovered after the first period that
there were other teams that knew
football and could play it in this
state. Captain Edwards. the best
halfback in Northern Indiana high
school circles will undoubtedly give
a good account Of himself While
he has not developed as much this
season as he did under the direction
Of former coach Granson he is the
banner defensive and offensive man
on the team
With a light fast team, Jeffersoh
High will probably resort to the for
ward pass. The Benders haven't
had much experience in breaking
UP long aerial attacks and may find
it rather difficult to handle.
Coach Burnham has been instruct
ing his rejuvinated lineup how TO
work a number Of trick formations
for the last week, and may have
something up his sleeve that will set
back the dOwnstaters.

ILLITERACY IN
UNITED STATES
Partial Census Returns Indicate
That There Are 5000 900 or
1000, 900 Uneducated.
SOUTHERN STATES IN Lead
Group Of Nine Commonwealth Has
More Than 100000 IIIlterates,
one-Third of Them Native
Whites.

Washington.-Th United States Is
still one of the most illiterate of the
civilized nations of the world, census
figures for 1920 now available in some
detail for % states reveal. The figures
show more than 100000 illiterates in
group of nine Southern states, one
third of them native whites.
Indications are that the army of IL
literates in the United States will not
fall far short of 100000 or 100000.
There has been progress, however, and
notably In the Southern states. Geor-
gia, for example, has 328,S3S Hitter
ates, but the percentage of illiteracy
is 1873, as compared with 207 in 1910.
South Educating Its People.
Alabama has reduced it's illiteracy
from 22.9 per cent in 1910 to 1871 per
cent in 1920; Louisiana from 90 per
cent to 21.9 per cent; Mississippi from
22.4 per cent to III per cent; South
Carolina from 25.7 per cent to 1S.1 per
cent, and North Carolina from 1876 per
cent to 1871 per cent.
posed help of the federal government,
the South should be virtually free
from illiteracy in 30 years. In the
meantime the states that have a large
foreign-born population are faced with
even greater problems than the South.
The New York school authorities last
year had copied from the census lists
the names of adults reported as Hit
crate and have used this list as the
beginning for systematic drive on
illiteracy.
Country Reducing Figure.
One of the striking revelations OF
the war was the large amount of ma
tive white iliteracy, and the 1920 fig
ures tell very much the same story.
While in states like Alabama Georgia,
Louisiana and South Carolina the
problem is still mainly one of the ne
gro, in Kentucky and Tennessee the
native white illiterates actually out
number the cOlored.
The 1910 census gave the United
States an illiteracy record of 7-10
per cent. Indications are that the
1920 figure, unless the immigrant
states of the East show up too badly,
will run around 512 and per cent
still considerably above the illiteracy
figure for England, France, Germany,
and some of the smaller nations of Eu-
rope.
For the most part illiteracy in the
rural districts continues to be much
worse than in the centers of popula-
ton. In Alabama rural illiteracy Is
20.4 per cent and illiteracy in the
towns and cities only 6.5 per cent. .

Connecticut Man Knew Abraham Lin
coin When He Was a Coun-

Winsted, COnn.-Refusal to worry
Is one of the secrets Of a long and
happy life, says Chester r. Woodford
Of Avon, 107 years old. He is the
Oldest living ex-member of the Con

His mother lived to be ninety two
years old and his grandmother at

BAR CLOTH GOOD EVIDENCE
Judge InhaIes Aroma From Towel in
Illicit Liquor Case In Con-
nectlcut.

Bridgeport, Gonna wet bar towel
was waved before Judge Comley's ju-
dicial nose in City court as evidence
in a liquor case. The policeman had
mopped up with the towel the con-
tents of bottle which Steve Bodnar
had broken when officers entered his
saloon and was fearful the odor would
vanish before judicial notice was TAX
en- of it. Judge Comley was able to
steer a steady course from the bench
even after inhaling deeply.
The same cop produced bottle Of
dishwater salvaged from sink In
which Mike Boylar had dumped the
contents of teapot when the police
entered his place. Analysis showed
1t contained per cent of alcohol by
volume. Boylar was fined 5000 and
