encounter South River High Schools
quintet this term, according to the
schedule recently issued by the South
River manager, a short time ago.
South River has boosted of n of
the strongest teams in this section
for a number of years.
Under the direction of Coach
Waddel, the Crimson and White
passers last year made a creditable
record, but South River, with one
of the best teams in this county and
this section of the state, was not
played. There was considerable talk
about a game DR. a series, but the
local coach of that period failed to
complete plans for a meeting.

Of the local high school has not de-
feated a South River team during
the past five years, or since Johnny
Fitzpatrick was appointed coach of

is quite a record and all the more
reason why the two schools should
meet on the court every year.

C~o-ordinated Service
In the Public Interest

at is clearly in the public interest q 3 = thatIosl transportation
facilities should be developed in the most economical and ac
fectve way from the point of view of the community"
The foregoing is the expressed Judgment of the Federal
Electric Railway Commission which made a nation
wide investigation and study of the problem of local
transportation.
Unnecessary competition between trolleys and buses
does not develop economical transportation, nor is
a useless duplication of service effective"
From the point of view of the community" trolleys
and buses are both desirable, SO the logical, the sem
sible thing to do is to coordinate the two services IN
der a single responsible management subject to prop
er municipal and State supervision.
In this way, and in this way only, both trolleys and
buses can be utilized to best advantage, without waste
of money or man power, and made to provide a max
imun of service at a minimum of cost.

The annual meeting of the Gen

pewa people will no doubt be
pleased to learn that their friend
and benefactor, Mr.. Webster
Ballinger, of Washington, d. c.,
attorney for the Chippewas, will
also be in attendance at the coun-
Gil. This will be pleasing news to
the Chippewas, for there are many
who do not understand the exact
condition of Chippewa affairs as
they now stand and all will well
come the visit of Mr.. BaIlinger in
order that every thing may be
explained to them in detail.

has authorized the payment of the
