OAKLAND To MAPLE HILL
Football Game This Afternoon VIII
Be Hard Fought Contest.

Oakland high school will go to
Maple Hill this afternoon to meet the
fast football team of that place. The
Oaklanders went thru some hard sig
nal practice and a light scrimmage last
night, and were reported to be in good
coalition for the game.
A number of the Oakland men have
been out with injuries but it is be-
lieved the team will be able to give q
fairly good account of itself this after
noon.
Maple Hill, in years past, has had
one of the strongest football teams for
a high school of any in this part of
the state. The Maple Hill men used
to put up a stiff game for more than
one of the larger high schools. This
town produces football players, and
the game this afternoon will be hard
fought one.
The Maple Hill men won from Har-
veyville, 8 to 0, recently, and the Oak
land men got trimmed last season by
Harveyville, so it looks like Maple
Hill would be the favorite. However,
Coach L. P. Ripple is going into the
fray with the intention of taking the
long end of the score.
The Oakland line will weigh about
140 pounds, and the back field is fair
ly fast. The probable lineup for the
game this afternoon is: Marlin, left
end; Tomilson, left tackle; Titus, left
guard Carrothers, center; Longabach,
right guard; Lacrone, right tackle;
Redman, right end; Weddle or Shat
fer, quarter; Way, full, and Pollom,
Peery, Jackson and Hanson, halves.

SEAMAN TO PLAY MERIDEN
Football Game VIII Be Feature of In
dian Creek Grange Fair.

All twenty-seven of the football
men at Seaman rural high school will
be in shape to get into the fray if
they are needed when Seaman meets
the Meriden team at the Indian Creek
grange fair this afternoon, four miles
north of Topeka. A number of the
Seaman men have been out on &C
count of injuries, but they are recov-
cred sufficiently to play in today S
clash.
The Seaman team is expecting a
hard game today, since the Meriden
team took a game from OZawkie last
week, 26 to 0. The Seaman team is
playing a much better brand of foot
ball than it did last season, the men
being heavier and more experienced.
The team is coached by Charles D.
Logan, former Washburn captain
and star, and also a member of one
of the best teams in the A. e. F. in
France.
Coach Logan has announced his
probable lineup for the game today,
as follows: Shields. left end; Henry,
left tackle; Hartzell, left guard; Carr,
center; Hook, right guard; Button,
right tackle; McNoun, right end !;
French, quarter; Catron, left half;
Blanchard, right half: and Cardwell,
captain and full.
Skinner Boies of Washburn will
referee the game. It is called at 3
o'clock.

WILL PLEAD SELF-DEFBNSE

1t was learned today that Gardner
intends to enter self-defense plea
whom he IS arraigned for trial at Rom
ney, probably early in March, on tho
ground that during a dispute with Nc
Zee over tho latter's alleged failure to
clean up house he had vacated on
Gardner's land, Mckee raised an axe
to strike Gardner.
Asa Larrich, with whom Mckee
was chopping wood at the time. testi-
lied that Gardner struck at Mckee
with shotgun and that Mckee ward.
on of the blow with his ak. Stepping
back foot or two, Larrick said, Gard.
ner placed the gun almost against Nc
KEGS right side and shot. It was then.
l-arrick said, that Gardner turned to
him, saying, "You are the only wit.
ness and lint going to kill you. Dead
men toll no tales" Gardner was per.
studded to believe he had inflicted only
a flesh wound and consented to Lar.
rick going for doctor.
While Larrick was summonfng a
physician he also gave an alarm, he
said and in short time q crowd of he
tween $50 and 400 people who had
been attending sale at Capron Bridge
ran to the scene Of the shooting.
