The football team OF st. John S
College Cadets defeated the eleven of
Gallaudet College tMutesl of Wash
ington. on the college gridiron this
morning. 81 to Z. in game that was
marked by some brilliant work and
stubborn defense at different stages.
With the score standing Z TO ;
against them at the close of the first
half. the cadets went into the final
sessions. and by uncovering a slash
ing offensive. literally swept the
Silent Men, off their feet. Four
touchdowns were registered by the
cadets and Tickey was successful i'll
all tries for goals Two of tine touch
downs were made by Eyerstine. and
one each by Gregg and Kirkpatrick.
The work OF the latter in skirting the
ends was the outstanding feature OF
tho game. The cadets also did some
highly c0mmendable work with the
forward pass, and hit the line for sub
stantial gains. The Mutes scored a
touchdown in the first period as the
result of blocked punt, but after that
they at no time threatened.
The Mutes led the way in the scor-
ing in the first period. when one of
their forwards broke through the line
and blocked Tickey's attempt 10 punt.
Lafontain, left wing man OF the Silent
Men. grabbed the pigskin while on a
dead run and sprintod so yards to a
touchdown. The try for goal was sue
cessful. Gallaudet lads had mustered
surprising strength and held the local

The bankruptcy of agriculture. is the
warning of f. b. White. president OF

Pointing TO the depression in agri-

just issued said that the potash duty

disastrous blow at this time He de-
nounced the idea of protecting the
domestic potash producer at the ex-
pense of the farmer as threatening the
prosI Gritty OF the nation.
"a five year graduate duty on pot

trous blows which could be aimed At
the present time at American agri-
culture Mr. White said. The Amer
lean farmer needs protection far more
than does the domestic potash pro
ducer. and what is more 10 the point.
the farmer deserves that protection.
The protection required by agricul-
ture. however. is not that of a high
duty on potash. Instead it needs to
be guarded against any unfayorable
legislation. an example of which is
this joker" in the Fordney Tariff
Bill.
''The farm can stand nothing more

Walton was chosen by the county, not
in his capacity as President of the
Board. but as an individual. To render
the required services. Likewise
James NJ. Munroe was chosen as the
third arbitrator and each was paid as
part of the county's expense in carry
