the little pile.
Clancy did some quick figuring.
The blue chips must be worth

Lallo turned over his exposed

Zenda chuckled.

He put in his chips and dealt

INCOME TAXES IN STATE
OF ARIZONA INCREASED

Income tax collection in Arizona has
increased so per cent during the first
six months of this year over the cor
responding period last year, according
to a statement by Frank B. Stewart,
collector of internal revenue.
According to Mr.. Stewart, collection
of taxes for 1922, which were made
during the first six months Of the
year amounted to $892,201.45 against
S542, ,434.89 for the same period last
year.
Commenting upon these figures, Mr..
Stewart asserted that mo more accur-
ate barometer of business conditions
could be found than the amount of
paid income tax. That these figures
reflect healthy and prosperous con-
dition is obvious

the east.
The quartette was excruiating,
which is meant as it is written and
will have to lay that way, no matter
how much anger may be stirred up.
Tom Mccullough won the debate
easily, but should have been fined for
advertising his own business.
Ed Miller read, impressively, the
poem, Landing of the Pilgrims"
Mr.. Koch announced that, owing to
inability to have heat at all times in
the basement of the Elks home, which
had been generously offered the Boy
Scouts by the lodge, it was decided
not to quarter them there. 1t is like
ly, he said, that two rooms in the
basement of Emerson school, well
heated and isolated from the class
rooms, will be used by the scouts.
Rev. FIR. c. Vabre sang 'fThe Rotary
Wheel" winning much acclaim there
by, and Mr.. Koch read Thanksgiv-
ing poem by Charles Hanson ToWne.
Then he conducted rattle of the Ro-
tary button he wore until presented

to get the button and the last-named
was the lucky guy.

"This will then be followed by a
quartette consisting of Dinkey Wheat,
Sidey Gassn1an, Carley Mayhem and

"You may then call on Della Strong

Feeling that after such strenuous
argument the club members will be in

Third Quarter
Shirley substitutes for Booth.
Taylor substitutes for Lockwood.
Lockwood substitutes for Bartlett.
Both teams came back strong, the
high school sure of a victory in the
last half and the Lumberjacks equally
sure they could hold them. Flag
staff kicked to the locals 10-yard
line where Camp rescued the pigskin
and made a spectacular run for 85
yards. 1t looked as if he was head
ed for touchdown until Denman's
speedy half, Knoles, overlook him.
They both came to the ground on the
visitors 15-yard line. Knoles was
hurt and winded and was placed at

Denman of the High, like Stevenson,
has done wonders with his team. Both
are better than the average in the
state.
DR.. A. j. Mackey refereed in fine
shape. Both coaches have compli-
mented him on his good work.
Here are the plays, as they we're
written down by representative of
The Sun, who happens to be one of
the most ardent among the Normal
fans, but who tried in the following
to subject his partisanship to cold dis
passionate fact;
First Quarter
Flagstaff won the toss and chose
to kick. Flagstaff kicked to Fillerup
on his own 30-yard line, who returned
it 10 yards. Camp made first down
on run off right end. Heckethorn
went through hole at left tackle for
two yards and Fillerup smashed the
opposite tackle for thirteen yards
Captain Camp and Vickers each made
good gains around the ends and Fill
lerup went through the green and
browns apparently frightened line to
the ten yard line. Vickers again got
around left end for seven yards. This
brought the ball to the Highs g.
yard line and it was an easy matter
for Fillerup to trample the opponents
line for the remaining three yards
which gave the white and gold war
riors a touchdown in less than -four
minutes of play. Camp then booted
the pigskin between the uprights fol
the extra point.
Denman's boys again kicked off to
our 25 yard line and Fillerup
returned the ball 20 yards. The high
school boys seemed to take new life
and stopped the Normalites for four
downs, forcing them to kick. Apple
gate took the ball on his own 80 yard
line and lodged his way for 40 yards
Williams started around right end but
Rhoton tackled him five yards behind
the line. Williams slipped around left
end for nine yards and then called for
a forward pass which Camp intercep-
ted and advanced the pill to his own
% yard line. Vickers made a yard
through right tackle but Camp lost
it on an end run. Fille1~up smashed
the high school line but could not get
by Applegate. Vickers lost one yard
when going around left end and Nor
NAL was penalized five yards for be
ing off side. Captain Camp kicked
to the highs 35-yard line. Williams
returned the ball to his own Al yard
line. Vic Mcclure tried to penetrate
through center but Rhoton got him
without a gain. Vic smashed through
right guard for five yards. Knoles
kicked to the locals five-yard line.
Camp returned the ball to his own 10
yard line.
Camp attempted an aerial play to
Heckethorn but failed to make ground
Camp and Vickers made small gains
through the line, but the Lunlberjacks
were forced to use their toe. The
kick was fumbled but Vickers recov-
cred it on his own 40-yard line. Camp
and Fillerup each made four yards
around right end. End of first quar-
ter, score, Normal 7, Flagstaff 0.
Second Quarter
The quarter began with the ball in
possession of Flagstaff on the 59-yard
line. Knoles made yards through
