This paper is independent in poll
ties but is always glad to say q
friedly word for candidates OF either
party in a personal way. We had
the pleasure of meeting N. Conner
Jones. Republican nominee for Re
preventative and found him a very
genial man. We are assured by 9th
cFs of his general worth and inte-
gritty and our belief is that he
would ably serve us in the next
legislature. Baca county feels that
she ought to have the representa-
tive this next term and we are sure
ProWers county could not seriously
object. Mr.. Jones is long time
resident of this region, coming to
Baca county more than a score of
years ago, and has been engaged in
all lines of work from COW puncher
to banker. He knows his fellow
men well and is acquainted with
the needs of this region. Our cause
in his hands would not suffer at
the capitol. He would represent
the farming interest admirably. OF
course as former newSpaperman
formerly editor of the Two Buttes
SentineD we have an especially
warm feeling for him.

HOLLY HIGH PLAYS
ITS FIRST LEAGUE GAME
Local Football Team Goes to Rocky Ford
and Altho Beaten Played Good Game.
Other Notes Of Interest.

Both teams appeared on the field
at 2:40 and after resting few min,
utes went through their signal work
a few minutes before o'clock.
Rocky Ford won the toss and
elected to kick and Holly received
the ball .at the west goal. The
first kickoff was fIuke and Ger,
ter Smeltzer received it Is yards
from the kick off position and re
turned 1t to its starting place be
fore being downed Evidently this
must have started Shelter on the
war path. From this time on he
played the game of his life and time
and again their 1870 pound fullbael'
was dropped In his tracks while
trying to make center plrlnges.
The first quarter was contested
most furiously and only by Il; fol
ward pass grabbed out OF the air
and an open field ahead would
Rocky Ford have scored the first
quarter.
The second quarter looked like
Hclys best bet and only the time
keepers whistle saved Rocky Ford
end from being crossed, with Holly
covering the ball. This quarter
ended with Holly marching up the
field to the tune of very successful
forward passes, end runs and line
plunges which were so well general
ed nv quarterback Blair and exc
cuted by our backfield, Shackelford
Adkins and Wagner that it became
very distressing moment for
Rocky Ford.
Third quarter put Holly on defen-
siye more than the second quarter
and by continued line plnuging ami
end runs Rocky Ford pushed over
another touchdown and goal. This
began the decentralization OF Holly's
team as Guard Knuckey wa
knocked out. due to kick in the
kidneys. Shortly after halfback
Adkins had to be withdrawn be
cause Of a poor knee made poorer.
New men who especially dlstin-
gnished themselves in this game and
showed promise of good develop,
ment are Hardy at End. Appel at
Guard, Lewis at End and Hays at
End and backfield. One of the
really bright spots of the game was
the forward pass executde from
shackelt0rd to Blair. 1t seemed al
most uncanny at times Blairs abil
ity to spear the ball out OF the air
but unfortunately he was always
covered up from having, an open
field ahead of him.
