HIGH SQUAD OFFERS
STIFF OPPOSITION
TO QUAKER SCRUBS

Football prospects at the high
school are now taking on brighter
hue. The players all turned out for
the practice at Reid field Wednesday
night and they put up some stiff oppo-
sition against the Earlham scrubs.
Coach Stenger spent most of his time
in developing the technical points Of
football in Wednesday nights scrim

The two teams did rot play reg

most of their time in defensive play
in order to help the high school
eleven in their preparation for the
coming game Saturday. High school
had the ball most of the time and
took advantage of the fact by
practicing the forward pass, end runs
and trick plays. The perfection CT

element of the red and white offense

were executed in the scrimmage, 1t

is not the only one who is WORKING
hard this year, however. Mattox, CAY

several others are making good IN

are working hard on the gridiron for
the purpose of bringing home the

their work is excellent.

Coach Stenger is intending to win

PHILADELPHIA. August 31.-Busi-

of progress is slow. A generous
amount of business is being done in

provement in marketing conditions
for cotton and the big rise in cotton
prices In the last two weeks have re-
stored confidence and stimulated busi-
ness throughout the entire south.
When 1t is realized that for every cent
added to the price of cotton seventy
million dollars is added to the pur-
chasing power of the south, some
idea may be gained of why the effect
of the advance is felt in every line
of trade here.
Local dealers in dry goods say that
they have not enough stocks to sup
ply the demand which has sprung up
since the advance started, even If they
were willing to sell at prices quoted
a week ago Wholesalers are placing
larger buying orders than at any
time this year, as they realize the re-
tail buying soon will absorb all
wholesale stocks.
