2 UNDEFEATED
TEAMS TO MEET
HERE TOMORROW
Oakley Coming Friday Equipped 10
Provide Real Tussle Says
Dope PeddIer.
(By Wee Gee)

The Filler high school football
eleven will have a real chance to
/ show its ability in a real way Friday
when they come up against the
husky eleven from Oakley. This
team will be remembered from last
year as having regular eleven.
From returns from games played so
far this season Wee Gee believes
they have a strong team this year.
They have played only two games
this season defeating Albion 60 TO 0
and Castleford 124 TO 0. These two
wins will give them confidence and
fight to stage a real contest when
they meet the local boys on the home
field at 3 o'clock tomorrow.
Coach Denman however, is prepar-
ing his warriors for the fray and the
invaders will earn every yard they
make. When the local mentor was
asked about the game he replied,
1.-The fans can come expecting to see
a real fight when we meet Oakley
here. They have good team and
only through playing football and
fighting every minute of the game
will we win"
There may be a few shifts made
in the lineup for the next game.
The fans can also be on the lookout
for some new plays Filler is work
ing on a play which they have hopes
OF perfecting in time TO use against
the Oakley eleven.
With the exception of few sears
and bruises from the last game the
local boys are all in good condition
10 enter the game Friday, and every
one can be counted on to do his best
TO add another scalp TO their ever
collection.

many running full blast Tuesday
Wednesday saw renewed activity on

now gives every assurance for the
successful harvesting of the crop.
IL is estimated that previous 60 the
unweicome rain storm OF two weeks

crop had been harvested.
Damage Not Great
Estimates OF the damage done the
unharvested crop varies from 2 10 8

Counsel for several large estates

such payments to beneficiafies OF

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-"American
cotton growers have sustained 4
loss of more than $500. ZOO. 900 this
year, based on present prices. and
the supremacy Of America as q
cotton-growing nation has been So
riously menaced because of the
depredations Of the boil weevil,
which can and should be controlled,
declared Edward e. Bartlett, jr..
president OF the New York cotton
exchange today.
"The problem involves the CO.
ordination Of the various orgauiza-
tions which have declared war on
this pest" said Bartlett.
Urges Federal Control.
These should be under the
leadership of some agency with suf-
ficient prestige and financial back
ing to carry the whole South along
with 1t. In my judgment, the
United States Government is best
fitted to undertake this task and
to carry it to success"
Bartlett is opposed to the idea
that prosperity of the Southern cot
ton district can best be promoted
by a limitation Of cotton production
and consequent high prices for q
short crop. The serious loss OF
production in the last three years,
he said, is already reflected in the
attitude Of English sellers and man.
ufacturers Of cotton. Cognizant OF
the situation confronting American
cotton growers, the British Govern
ment and its agents are making
every effort to stimulate cotton
production in India, Egypt and
other Of their possessions to re-
place American cotton in her
markets.
Turn to Egypt.
Many Of the British cotton spin.
ners who specialized in American
cotton fabrics, and would have no
other" said Bartlett, are now
suiting their machines to the raw
material grown in Egypt, India and
other parts Of the British Empire.
Sales of spot cotton on the Liver
pool cotton exchange, heretofore
predominantingly of American-grown
cotton. have Of late been giving
way to increasing volume OF Egyp.
