say regarding the chances of the
Sheridan high school to turn
another state championship team:
Coach wright's Sheridan high
footballers viii NOE capture the
state championship again this com
Ing season unless the same rapid
strides in the individual players
capacities fill tho gaps left open
by graduation of many of the Blue
and Colds stars of last year.
Though far greatly advanced over
this time last year. the locals face
the same hard task that confront
ed them last year, in meeting the
opposition, with a comparatively
green eleven.
That ices not mean. Sheridt..
will not win. It means thai to win
a great obstacle must be overcome
in play. That is experience.
wright's men did it last year.
Work will do 1t again this year.
Frankly. last year. Sheridan
high seemingly had little hope of
prestige to be gained in Interstate
play with other teams. Wright did
start with nothing" last year. Ho
ended by %tuTning out the greatest
eleven Sheridan has ever boosted.
This is said notwithstanding tho
fact that the Nielsen Heights had
a team some years back that was
unsecured on in all OF It's contests.
1t went through the season with
out a defeat registered against is
slate n compared favorably with
last years aggregation.
Wright Did Unforeseen.
wright did the unforeseen with
green talent. He whipped Into

credit to football in the entire sec.

Dome Removed 60 Relieve Pressure
New Building Be Construct

MILTON, July 29.-For the past
forty-five years. one Of the outstand-
ing features OF the town of Milton, has
been the dome and flag pole, on top of
the County Court House. And vet
that which has been familiar object
to the thousands who have lived in
Santa Rosa county during nearly a
half century past, will never greet
their eyes again. For, in accordance
with the recommendations of archi-
tect Willis. who made a careful exam
inatton Of the Court House a short
time ago, the dome and all the struc-
ture above thereof proper, has been
torn down and will be replaced with
a simple flat roof surface.
Relieves Strain.
This super-structure was removed
from the top of thecourt house for the
double purpose Of removing that
amount of weight, and Of relieving
the building Of the strain caused by
the vibration Of this upper structure,
both at this time.
New Building Soon.
This action is being taken by the
Board of County Commissioners as a
temporary protective measure, for the
safety of the occupants of the Court
House as well as the county records,
until such times as a new building can
be erected, which will probably be
commenced at no greatly distant date.
