RANGERS VICTORS'
 IN MERIDEN GAME
Nyborg and SaVisky Win by
 Brilliant Playing

The Rangers A. c. football team journeyed to Hanover Park In Meri- den and defeated the fast West Sides Of that city yesterday. The game was cleanly played and excit- ing throughout with both teams showing to its best In both the de- fense and offensive plays.
 The first quarter started with Allan kicking for the West Sides booted the pigskin to the Rangers 20 yard line. The Ranger warriors then advanced the ball to the West Sides 3 yard line due 10 the smash- ing offside tackle plunges of Ny borg and kupecz, two of the Ran gers back field men, and also the end running of Sarisky. After sev- eral vain attempts to push the ball across the West Sides goal line the Rangers lost the ball on downs on the enemies yard line. When the Rangers did finally score in the last quarter it was a pretty forward pass, Nyborg to Sarisky, which netted the local team a gain of 40 yards and also for the first touchdown of the game.
 The West Sides did their best work in the third period, when Allan and Reynolds plowed through the line and brought the ball down to the Rangers 20 yard line. At this ner- iod of the play the Rangers line held strongly, which the West Side team found 1t difficult to penetrate fourth for gains. The playing of Captain Puppel. Anastasia, Sovieck and Maher was a real treat to the fans that witnessed the game, as holes were visiblc~from the side line for Rangers backfield men to go through them. Siefers and Kas- brow, snappy ends for the Rangers, were very noticeable in breaking up the West Sides so-called trick plays. Conrad, the Rangers quarterback, played sweet game for the locals and directed all the Rangers plays.

Whether the county will pay

cost of construction of bridges over

AYES, probably will be discussed by
the county council at a special meet
ing next Wednesday.
Merle n. A. Walker, attorney for

No definite answer was given.
The commissioners apparently are
inclined to stand on the gentlemen

which the county was to build the
Delaware st. bridge over Fall Creek

It developed Friday that the city

WATSON'S MOVE
ROUSES COMMENT
At WASHINGTON
Vigorous Internal Revenue
Bureau Probe Now Fore
caSted.
By Times Special

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON. July 26,-With
Senator James Couzens. Michigan,
as chairman of the special Senate
committee to investigate the Inter
nal Revenue Bureau, succeeding
Senator James E. Watson, Indiana
resigned, it is believed a vigorous
inquiry into ramiflcations of prohi-
bition enforcement will result.
Various interpretations are being
placed on Watson's unexpected res
ignation. One theory is that the
Administration is playing for Cou.
zens' support in Michigan to offset
the La Toilette movement.
Another theory is that Watson,
who did not figure in the Cleveland
convention picture and was sighted
by William NJ. Butler, the President
campaign manager. is tired of hold
ing the Administration bag and de-
cided to retire.
In any event Watson evidently in
tends to escape the criticism he has
been receiving for blocking the pro-
hibition investigation. Watson OBJ
jetced to the investigation last spring
and made a speech in the Senate de-
claring nobody expected prohibition
would be enforced for ten years. y

Banker Sails for England
Says German Loan Must

By United Press
NEW YORK, July 26.-Demanding
that security for American investors
in German bonds be the basis for
tn esale of the bonds in this country,
]. P. Morgan sailed today for Eng
land on the Minniwaska, where he
expects to advise allied statesmen at
the London conference on repara-
lions.
The banker made it clear in a for
NAL statement he was not going in
an official capacity, that this was his
annual vacation, but, if he were
asked, he would be glad to advise
with members of the conference.
TT goes without saying that as
bankers we should not ask the Amer
lean investor to buy German bonds
unless and until the allies have. in
their own time, in their own way
and for their own reasons, deter
mined on a policy which will in our
opinion give security to the bondhold-
ers." Morgan said.
IF this very simple and obvious
s<act is borne in mind il will, think,
be found that most of the questions
now under discussion answer them
selves"
