GUYMON WON GAME
ON ARMISTICE DAY
Credit For Victory Due To Captain
OF Guymon Team For
Generalship

The hardest fought and the clean
est foot ball game ever witnessed in
Liberal, was played by the Liberal
and Guymon Legion teams Armistice
Day.
The crowd was the largest which
ever assembled on Liberals field. wit
messed the game, estimates that there
were between 1000 and $500 in at
tendance.
From the start it was apparent that
it was anybody's game, and after the
fisrt quarter no one expected to see
a score made unless an error was
made by one of the teams.
Both teams played with every ounce
of pep and vim they possessed and IL
was a contest such as is seldom seen
on the gridiron.
Both teams made fumbles which
were costly, but not enough to give
the opposition the point and it would
it would be difficult to say which team
played the better foot ball.
The crowd was wild and raised a
tremendous uproar when the team
they were backing made a good gain.
Possibly the most thrilling moment
for the Liberal fans was when Dutch
Malone intercepted Guymon pass
and ran forty yards thru broken
field. However he was severely tack
led before he could go over the goal
line
The game was scorcless until within
one minute of the closing whistle,
when Beck of Cuymon, ran 80 yards
thru Liberals lines for a touchdown
and Guymon kicked the goal.
This play was due to the super
ior generalship of the captain of the
Guymon team. The game was hard
and took lot of wind. Beck was their
player, the man they were depending
upon to win the game. Instead Of
playing him out he was pulled and
allowed to recuperate, while the Lib
eral team worked itself down. Then
just at the last he was put back, fresh
and in good condition. The wisdom
of this move is apparent. With Beck
new man, and the Liberal team worn
out it was easy enough for him TO get
away for score, and then It was too
late for Liberal to pep" and get q
score, and Guymon had the gamem
safely slowed away.
However It was q wonderful game,
pronounced by several college men as
the equal Of any college game they
had ever witnessed. Rooters for both
sides got their moneys worth and
while the Liberal fans were disap-
pointed that their team did not win,
they have only words Of praise for
the ability of the Guymon team.
1t is altogether proable that the two
teams will meet at Guymon for an
other battle on Thanksgiving Day and
the game will draw crowd from far
and near.

GIVE YOUR DOLLAR"

The drive for funds for the
American Red Cross in Seward
County is tagging; in fact pain
fully dragging. Only little over
an hundred dollars in member
ship for the ensuing year has been
enrolled.
Each year the Seward County
Red Cross advances money to
soldiers, who are worthy Of the
consideration, but this cannot be
done If the people of Seward
County do not pay their member
ship-just a dollar.
Is there a man in Seward
County who will fail to help re-
lieve the "straitened" 'circum-
stances of an ex-service man.
Somehow we cling to the belief
that there is not a soul in the
Southwest who will fail to give
a dollar for such n cause.
The Red Cross of Seward
County has plans for a nurse for
the city and county, knowing the
need for one, but this cannot be
realized If the people fail to an
swer its call for Rd Cross MEM
bership. The local Red Cross has
done much work for humanity's
sake, and the expenditure of
money has been conservative. The
dollar you invest to help the ex-
service man, the worthy citizenry
which suffer disaster, will do q
greater good when working with
others, than if you spend it alone.
Seward County's Red Cross
needs a thousand dollars to fur
ther it's work, to perform its func-
tion for the relief, even to save
the life Of the unfortunate. Will
,lou, Mr.. American Citizen, per-
nit the noble institution TO
weaken just for the need of one

RAILROAD BRIDGE BURNS

The bridge, three miles east of
Mullinville, burned Wednesday af-
ternoon. 1t is thought the fire start
ed from the accumulation Of weeds
under the bridge. All of the through
trains, Nos. l, 2, 8 and a, were de-
toured through Dodge City over the
Santa Fe and on to Hutchinson. The
local trains, Nos. 311 and 312 run
gers were transferred from one train
as far as the bridge and the passen-
to the other. 1t is thought that the
new bridge will be ready for use
within forty-eight hours from the
time the other was burned.

THE BIG AIR FROLIC is
ENJOYED BY THOUSANDS
People Came From Far and Near To
See Greatest Exhibition In
The State

The big air frolic last Saturday and
Sunday was attended each day by
thousands of people, estimates being
around eight thousand saw the ex-
hibition Sunday afternoon.
While the number of palnes adver-
tised did not materialize, there were
eleven ships on the ground, ample
to give everything advertised on the
program with one exception.
There were plenty of planes to
make all the contests interesting, the
races being participated in by num-
ber of them.
The wing walking and acrobatics
could have not been better, as the men
walked and climbed about the plane
in mid-air in a manner to make the
observers hold their breath.
Two parachute jumps were made
daily and these were as pretty as ever
witnessed anywhere.
The stunts by the planes embraced
every trick known to the most daring
aviator, and entertained the multi
tude with their hair-raising stunts.
One plane made twenty-one complete
loops before reaching the ground.
The army planes did not arrive in
the manner advertised, but one huge
plane came and did every stunt
plane could dc.
The fact that there were not more
planes did not in the least detract
from the program, More had prom
ised but failed to male it.
On the whole the entertainment was
good and many words of praise were
spoken by persons from distance on
the completeness and quality of the
show.
The fellows who donated the time
in making arrangements and carrying
them out have met some criticism be-
cause the affair did not pay out, but
we feel that they should not be CEN
sured. They put in hard week free
of charge, and the fact that so
many did not come onto the field
and help in the matter Of the cost is
not to their discredit. If half who saw
the program had bought tickets,
there would have been no deficit. The
Democrat believes they should be ten
dered a vote of thanks rather than
censure. ....
Those who have seen similar shows
in the larger cities say that the Liber
al exhibit was equal to any of them,
and there is really no grounds for
criticism of the program or the
method of handling it.
There seems to be some misun-
as to the closing up OF
roads leading to the grounds and a
lot of unfavorable comment in this re-
gard. Now let everyone be sensible,
and view the proposition from the
proper angle. This was a public prop
osition. No one expected to make
any money out of it except possibly
The aviators. Everything which was
done was for the success of the
show. Liberal folks have no kick com
ng as this was for the benefit of all.
The committe brought show here
equal to anything Wichita ever had,
purely for the benefit of the pub
ic. They gave their time and effort,
neglected their own business for the
public good, so we hope that all this
ak will blow over, and that all will
.ealize the advantage to the commun-
ty is the advantage of every man
living in it, and that next year Liber-
il can pull off another meet which will
