A., satur- day, the Spark Plugs played the Bear Cats, runners-up in the evening league, in a one-sided game, over whelming their opponents, 60 to s. The Spark Plugs proved too big and their experience was very much in their favor. Wallin for the Sparkies caged 1 field goals, a record in both leagues with Nelson eight and Yan- kaska seven. Ingraham and FIoden were the principal point getters for the Bear Cats.
 San Toys In Second.
 The second game between the San for second place proved far more in- teresting to watch with the Ramblers on the short end. The San Toys found themselves after three weeks of poor basketball. Every man on the team worked hard and they showed a return of old time form which characterized their playing at the beginning of the season. Bear cat Nelson played splendid game at left forward and his unerring eye, sometimes half the length of the floor, caged five baskets from inc field. Torello, a bundle of nervous energy, demonstrated his knowledge of basketball to the amusement of the spectators when he missed some easy shots. Tn spite of his misses he accounted for two field goals and was in the game every minute giving his best. Kalgren, Tuttles and Williams starred for the Ramblers

RumOrs of Man Hit
By Train End in
Lookup for Drinking

Rumors that man had been hit
by a train at the lower College ave
nue. crossing early last evening were
apparently verified when Deputy
Marshal George II. Simpson found a
man near the crossing in an APP
parently intoxicated condition wan
dering about and declaring that he
had been hit by a train. Dark stains
on his face apparently verified this
statement for it looked like blood
in the night. When they arrived at
the police station Deputy Marshal
Simpson told the man to wash the
blood off his face but it would not
wash off and closer inspection show
ed that streaks of road tar were on
his face instead of blood. 1t became
evident that the man had run into
the surface of the road instead of a
train and he was locked up and will
probably tell the judge the story of
his accident this morning.

School Prosperous

The Community Bible school is
still prosperous. The third week has
brought a healthy increase both in
interest and members. Twenty six
new scholars have enrolled during the
past four days, which brings the total
Nenrollment to 226. But even more
significant than the total registra-
ton is the gradual increase in the
daily attendance. The average this
week has been 1876 as against 116
| last week and Ill the first week.
This bespeaks the cumulative in
terest.
The last picnic of the junior de-
partment will be held this afternoon.
Each one is to bring his own lunch
with drinking cup, also a little money
for punch. The truck will leave the
church at l o'clock sharp. No one
| will be expected to go who is not
regularly enrolled at the school.
Only those who can swim are to have
their bathing suits. Plans for a field
| day in the near future have been dis
CuSScd.
