An Impression of the Arcadia Game.
(Bonne Terre Register !

NhohuC 1eEIe NS6lSleF.J
The crowd was eager for the game
to begin. The defeat~of the Sunday
before was still fresh in their minds
but they were enthusiastic as ever
and ready to see some real baseball
The bell sounded and the grandstand
became silent as the umpire announc-
ed "Lsmming pitching for Bonne
Terre. Coshaw for Arcadia"
There was hardly vacant seat and
everyone in the crowd leaned for
ward as Spaghetti Magula picked up
his bat to lead off for the Arcadia
team. Magula wore glasses and this
was too good an opportunity for the
home town roosters to miss. "Come
on four eyes, show US what you can
do" eve will show you how to play
baseball, old four eyes," "Come OF,
boy, give him dark one," sounded
from the grandstand. But Arcadia
failed to score the first inning and
Reed made three base hit for Bonne
Terre and then scored from third.
The fat man from Arcadia mopped
his face, hunched his shoulders and
said, "Just wait till our team gets
startedl
The woman in the white gsorgette
waist smoothed her long white silk
gloves, her bracelets jingling, tilted
her large white lace hat more to one
side, chewed her gum, her gold teeth
flashing and her pink face becoming
red. The little boy with blond curly
hair in the row in front of her cried
for soda pop. The boys broke into
shouts of approval, and the girl in
the rufied organdie dress powdered
her nose again.
The score slowly increased, until it
stood So in favor of Bonne Terre in
the first half of the seventh inning.
With Arcadia scoring four runs and
Grant and Sparks tive for Bonne Ter
re the score was brought to tie. In
the second half of the seventh Downey
of Arcadia was put to umpire in the
place of Bill Smith who was then
transferred to umpire the bases. she
had better take his rule book with
him." suggested the fat man from
Arcadia.
With the change in umpires there
was change in the atmosphere of
the game and the grandstand respon-
ded loudly to every decision of the
umpire.
"Strike one," called Downey, and
in shrill voice one of the young
roosters inquired "When is ball not
a ball2 When it is a strike!"
"Strike two," called Downey, and
half the crowd rose. "Take him out!n
"Take him outi' "Take him out!n
"Robbery!" rose the cry. "He can't
count!" "Whadya mean strike two2"
"Takc him out!" yelled the crowd.
But the decision held to the satisfac-
ton of the fat man from Arcadia.
In the eighth inning Arcadia
brought their score up to seven and
Bonne Terre failing to score ia the
eighth or the ninth lost the game. The
fat man from Arcadia was satisfied
and as the Bonne Terre fans rose,
stretched themselves, and departed
home they said swell, anyway it was
good BASEBALL"

About the Price of Shoes.
iSalenn Post.l

tSalem Postl =
One of our friends, merchant has
taken exception to one of our edi-
torials couple or so weeks ago
touching on the great difference in
the price of shoes and raw hides. We
are quite sorry that this was accept
cd as "knock" on the shoe busi-
ness, and he is quite clearly wrong
in his position, because we have talk
ed with other merchants who sell
shoes and they all agree that shoes
are too high and that there is great
big steal somewhere between the
steers back and the mans foot. We
do not for a moment think nor did
our editorial imply that our local
merchants are profteering in shoes.
In fact we know otherwise because
one of our merchant friends who ad-
vertises in this paper often, volun-
teered to show us an invoice and
showed US the price he was selling
for and we know he is selling them
as close as possible, because we have
seen the figures. We have no apollo
gies whatever to make ever in regard
to our editorials. They stand and we
stand back of them. But our friend
made a mistake and overlooked
good business opportunity when he
failed to make use of the editorial as
the foundation of a good live "ad"
showing that the high cost of shoes
was not due to the local merchant.
We said before that shoes we're too
high; we say 80 again. We believe
the packers are the ones most re-
sponsible. They are selling US back
some of the those war time soc hides.
We have to take our loss but they
don't go us 5000, and now they won't
even make US price on hides. See
ing anything wrong in that editorial
was simply lack of Judgment. We
said then that shoes were too high
compared with the price of hides and
any sensible merchant will agree with
us. Also the shoe wearer.

of the Missouri College of Agricul-
ture. This exceeds the record of the
former champion, Raleigh's Star of
Peace, owned by Longview Farm, by
10 pounds of fat. One outstanding
point about the record was that,
while meyer producing 80 pounds of
fat during single month she was so
persistent in her milk production that
she was giving almost as much at Ithe
close of the record as at the start.

COACH MORRISON PUTTING
HOWARD SQUAD ON EDGE.

Washington, ID. c., Oct 13.--Coach
w. Il. Morrison is still putting the
Howard Football squad through the
rigorous program of training which
he started two weeks ago. The daily
workouts and scrimmages have not
thus far developed worthy substi-
tutes for the places on the squad
left vacant by last years graduates.
II is daily evident that the loss OF
such men as Lawrence, Hurt, Down
ing, Nurse, and others is seriously
felt and will mark the performance
OF the squad in future action. Every
effort has been put forth to create
other work back to It's proper dis
out of green material, which handi-
caps the progress OF the team at
present, full team capable of put
ting into play the system inaugu-
rated last year.
Team work and not individual
stars is the watchword Of the squad.
The daily workouts bring certain
rewards but do not reach yet the
stage of achievement which every
coach requires and expects OF his
men. There are now about forty
four candidates on the field which,
az the days go ont will be appreci-
ably reduced. The extreme warm
weather no doubt plays its part In
the slowness with which the team
works into condition and grips the
system Of play. TO date Coach Nor
rison has been unable to select even
a prospective first or second team.
The Freshman football squads will
be placed on the field next week
From the applications submitted and
looking over the prospective candi-
dates, Howard is assured of not only
large field from which to draw q
team but excellent material for that
squad. The Freshman team hopes to
play Manassas Institute. Manassas
Va; Storer College, Harper's Ferry

Md; and the local high schools

jnyinoible Fort Worth team into a
e-6 tie.
Fort Worth jumped in the first
quarter scoring touch down on
punt and tumble. which put
them on Dallas (5) five yard line.
II then took three t3) downs TO
force the pdgskin across, for Dallas
stuck to their slogan hold that line.
In the third quarter, the Panthers
executed successful forward pass
and the fast end had started on to-
ward a second touch down. But
list as he had made about Is yards,
Dallas half block, Thomas Ford
rushed out from the sidelines ami
with ferocious tackle brought him
10 the earth; incidentally this saved
The game.
AZ end. ellison showed up brill
iantly, breaking up several plays
behind the lines and was the cause
OF the Fort Worth team being held
en- downs many times
One new man, l.. J. Johnson. at
tackle showed lots Of stuff He Is
alert and his quick thinking stopped
all Fort Worth's trick plays.
Gist at left half, was injured In
the second quarter and Vickers re-
placed him Viokers Is known as
the "mule" Of the team, and the
haclfieId was naturally aided by his
being put IN. Ho also made several
10 and is yard gains through the
line.
Columbus Johnson was instrument
al in the game on his ability "a
couple with the other tackle and
guards and "hold the line"
Captain Darnelle showed up brill
iantly by putting the Devils on
the two yard line with a 40 yard
punt. Fort Worth lost the ball on
tumble on the ! yard line and
Dallas tried for a play through the
line. The back field moved, the
players filed up. the refree blew his
whistle, the players arose and the
ball was over. Dardnelle had car
ried II over Ford kicked, hut miss
ed by inches There remained only
one minute TO play and the score
