SHOW NEED OF
BIG GUATEMALA
ROAD PROGRAM
Despite Financial 'andicaps
Highways and Ra roads to
Be Constructed.

GUATEMALA CITY, April 11.-Addi-
tional lines OF communication in various
parts Of Guatemala are considered by
the Interior Department as the key IN the
reconstruction and development upon
which President Orellana has embarked.
Because Of financial conditions 1t is con-
sidered impractlcable even TO attempt the
elaborate campaign OF railroad construc-
ton which will be undertaken as soon as
the country is on its feet. but meanwhile
a program Of highway construction, river
transportation and n short piece Of rail-
road building has been begun By the De-
partment of Fomento under Minister Lie.
Alberto Mencos.
Minister Mencos has named nine Guate-
mala engineers to construct the short
stretri Of railroad from San Felipe 10
Quez lrenango, which will give Los Altos
direc, railroad connection with the Pa
cifc ports and with the capital. San Felips
is at an elevation Of approximately 1000
feet above sea level. while Quezaltenango,
capital Of the district Of the same name,
is about 1000 feet above sea level, and the
distance between the two is only sixty
miles.
The need for this road has been recog
nized by all political parties of the coun-
try, but It had never been attempted
until President Orellana took office. The
section to be benefited will pay for the
building of the road by a high tax on
liquor and yielding an annual Income of
IS 900, 900 pesos, which is now in opera
zion. with the road complete, highways
will connect with other important cen
tiers and will permit the shipment Of
produce from this section, one of the
| granaries Of the republic and rich In tim
Der and minerals. by rail instead of by
oxcarts and muleback.
In connection with the building OF
'thls railroad an extensive hydro electric
plant is to be installed, utilizing the
waters Of the Salama River, which
descend in n short distance 10000 feet.
This power plant will light all important
cities and the railroad will be electrified.
The present program looks to repairing
old highways, the building of some new
, roads in level country and the establish
ment cf n gasoline launch service on two
of the aavigable rivers. These highways
will connect with Salvador on the south.

BIG BANNER IN

Fire Chief Issues Warming
Against Source of Roof

Downtown pedestrians today were re-
minded of the city wide campaign by a
huge banner, flung across Washington
street half way between Pennsylvania
and Meridian streets, bearing in foot
high letters the slogan: Lets Clean
'Er Up-and Make Indianapolis Safe,
Sane, Sanitary" This banner, placed by
the fire prevention committee Of the
Chamber of Commerce and the city de-
partments, will remain flying until April
%, which marks the close of the clean
up drive.
North side residents were visited for
the second time during the cleanup
campaign by units of city wagons.
Fire Chief O'Brien has issued a warn
ing to every one TO use great care in
burning trash so that roof fires and
fiue blazes will not occur, as "the big
idea" back Of the Let's Clean 'er Up"
drive is to remove the many risks which
attend trash piles throughout the city.

It is the fad here at present for young
men to have the pictures of their sweet
hearts on their cigarette cases. This is
in return for the honor shown the young
men when the girls took up the idea Of
putting the likenesses of the males on
their stockings. A jeweler on Rue de la
Paix has found a way to embellish the
gold and silver cases with the photo
graphs so that the features of the men
are plainly recognizable. This same
jeweler however, reports that it is not
so easy to change photographs on the
cases and he implores the girls to stick
TO their beaux.
Sleeves that cover the arms, trains.

lS.-In spite Of the light rain that
fell during most Of the afternoon,
the largest crowd that ever witnessed
a foot ball game in Carroll county to-
day saw St. Johns defeat Western
Maryland by s to 0.
The Methodists went to defeat with
colors flying. Coach Hoban lined
up the strongest team that could be
picked from the st. Johns strong
men. but the best they could do was
to obtain q single touchdown Not
withstanding the Western Maryland
ers' lighter players. the men from
Crabtown failed to plug through the
center whenever they made the at
tempt. Duncan, Western Maryland's
150-pound center, put up a fine de-
fense. Western Maryland made no
substitutions until near the close of
the last period, when Smith went in
for Long.

fore the Anal whistle blew he took

The Michigan attack was one of the
most brilliant ever seen on Ferry
Field. Repeatedly the Wolverine
backs plunged through the Badger
line or circled the ends for long gains
Only the lighting spirit displayed by
the Madison eleven prevented an
overwhelming Michigan victory. Con-
testing every inch Of ground and at
times menacing the Wolverine goal,
the Badgers held the Maise and Blue
scoreless during the first two periods,
their all-round play being equal or
nearly so to that Of the Yostmen.
The Wolverines opened up in the
third period, however. accurate pass
ing by Capt. Goebel and Kipke paving
passes and an end run by kipke
brought the ball to within a yard of
the Wisconsin goal. whence Cappon
carried it over. Goebel scored the
added point on a kick from place
ment.
In the next periad the aerial attack
produced another touchdown. kipke
taking toss from Uteritz on the
Wisconsin 45-yard line and. aided by
splendid interference. carried the ball
across the line.
With only a few minutes of the final
period remaining, Wisconsin also
opened an aerial attack. a series of
short passes putting the ball on the
Michigan 20-yard line, where Eagle
berger took 1t for an end run to
within nine yards of the goal. An
substituting for Irish, put the ball
behind the Michigan goal line, scoring
the first points Of the year against
the Wolverines.
