DAWSON HIGH BADLY
DEFEATS ALBANY BOYS
WIN BY SCORE OF 20 TO O IN
FIRST GAME OF SEASON.
GOOD CROWD OUT.

The Dawson high school football
team played the first game Of the sea-
son at Baldwin park Friday afternoon,
and defeated the Albany high school
second team by a score of 20 TO 0.
The game was we'll played through
out, with the Albany lads handicapp-
ed only by their weight. A heavier
team of the same timber that COM
posed the A. H. S. scrubs would have
been a hard problem for the Dawson
boys. A crowd OF considerable size
witnessed the game, which did not
contain a dull moment.
By line plunges and end runs the
Dawson boys marched steadily down
to the Albany goal line, while line
buck by Captain Carl Bridges carried
it across. Jack Jones kicked goal for
point after touchdown. Score Dawson
II, Albany 0.
In the second quarter Albany show
ed good fighting spirit and threatened
to score Fake plays and forward
passes were used almost exclusively
by the Dougherty boys. Their failure
to score did not weaken their spirit
in the least, but it spelled their doom.
Jack Jones, on an end play, made a
brilliant act of broken field running,
and without interference OF any kind
went through Albany's defense for
touchdown after fifty yards. Attempt
to kick goal failed. Score at end OF
half was Dawson Is, Albany 0.
The third quarter was the hardest
fought with neither team making any
Il l.
were tailed in this quarter.
With the ball in Albany's possession
on their own fifteen yard line they
made the mistake of trying a forward
pass instead of punting in the fourth
quarter, and the pass was inter
cepted by Jack Jones, and carried
across the line for ain additional six
points. The kick after goal failed
again A brilliant end run by Tom
Edwards carried the ball once more
well into the Albany territory and an
other end run by Bridges tailed the
fourth touchdown for the Dawson
lads. Bridges made another end run
for the additional point. Score at the
close OF the game was Dawson 70,
Albany 0.
Referee, Woodruff; head lnesman,
Cobb; timekeepers, Allen and Cham
bliss.
The Albany lads deserve special
mention for putting up the good fight
which they did Hopelessly outweigh
ed they fought losing battle with
never say die spirit
Jones and Bridges were by far the
outstanding stars of the game. Tom
Edwards and Ross Collier also come
in for round OF applause. The line
worked like a machine, and although
little wax on defense presented a
wonderful offense Practically the en-
tire scrub team was given chance to
play in the last quarter

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its
Natural Color, Gloss and
AttractiVeness

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray' streaked and faded hair beauti-
fully dark and luxuriant. Just a few
applications will prove revelation If
YOUR hair is fading, streaked or gray
Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur rec
ipe at home, though, is troublesome:
An easier way is to get a bottle OF
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
at any drug store all ready for use.
This is the old-time recipe improved by
the addition of other ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractiveness.
By darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because it does it SO naturally,
SO evenly. You just dampeH sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and
luxuriant

HOURS FOR NEGRO SCHOOL
ARE CHANGED BY BOARD
Principal ]. B. King Ask for Cooper
alton of All Parents.


At a meeting of the board OF educa~
ton it was decided to change the
hours of the white and colored schools.
This was thought to be an advisable
plan to follow, as occasional conflicts
occurred between the young members
of the two races. :,
Hereafter the co1ored schools will
begin classes at 9 o'clock instead OF
$50 as heretofore. and J. B. King,
principal asks that the colored people
keep their children off the school
grounds until 8:45. By cooperating
with the teachers OF the negro schools
in this manner they will help all con-
cerned, and will keep the children
from lingering on the streets. The
hours for the white schools have not
been altered.

ADVERTISING PAYS
Federal Council of Churches Sends Out Statement Advocating Use Of Newspapers In Religious Work.

Washington, Nov. 10.-Newspaper advertising by churches throughout the country is urged as part of the campaign to "call people to the church" in a. statement issued today by the commission of evangelism Of the federal council of churches.
 Cooperation by business offices of newspapers to make the advertising effective has ben asked by the church organization. The advertis- ing will be placed by local churches or church organizations and will be in addition to church items printed An news columns.
 Dr. Charles L. Goodell, secretary of the commission, explained that, since news columns cannot as a rule carry the straight gospel mes sage" Its ''place is in the advertising columns" In this way, he said the church can reach people who never enter the church.
 'They are the people, many of Ahem friendly to the church but in- different, that we want to reach in khis campaign" he added. "The church has never released the won- derful opportunity of the advertis. 1Ng columns. Too often it has been suffered with using them for mere announcements of service, and though this has its place and i: worth while. the church must re, lease its greater task of using adver' Using for the story of salvation"

OPERA BY TELEPHONE
Put a Nickel in the Slot and Hear
 the Best of Singers

Munich, Nov. 1o.-"Put a nickel in the slot and hear tonights opera performance in the state opera house." is the latest Munich slogan. The telephone administration has just opened four opera-hearing halls in Munich suburbs, where long rows of pay telephones wait for custom CTS, eager to hear grand opera for 50 pfennigs.
 Telephone subscribers may use their phones at home against monthly fee for the opera service. When the subscriber, who listens to grand opera is wanted by another subscriber, the exchange interrupts the entertainment for the duration of the conversation. The transmits sion is entirely over wires and has nothing to do with radio. subscrib- CTS, however, are allowed to hook up amplifier units and loudtalkers, as used in the radio field.

COMMISSION TO SEEK DATA ON RAILROADS
Interstate Commerce Body Asking About Use of Trucks With
 Regular Service

Washington, Nov. 1o.-In its an- nual report form, to be sent out to all railroads about December and returned by March. 1925, the inter- state commerce commission will re- quest data on the use of trucks by the companies as supplementing reg ular service. Some of the country's railroads, including the Pennsyl- vania, utilize motor trucks on short hauls. Information regarding gaso- line propelled railroad cars and identification of parts of roads, will also be sought.
 The longest stretch of electrified road that has come to the attention of the commission is that of the Chi- cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul, from Harlowton. Montana. to Avery, Idaho, a distance of 40 miles, across the Rocky mountains. Over 600 miles of track of the Long Island. N. T., railroad are traversed by elec- tric engines and in the downtown section of New York city, this type of locomotive is used solely. The New York, New Haven and Hart ford road operates electric trains be- tween New York and Stamford, Conn.,. and the New York Central between the Grand Central terminal in New York city and Harmon, N.
 The most recently available figures of the commission show that the eastern part of the country has 2s6 electric locomotives in operation: the south has II and the west has 60. Most of the big railroads of the country have portions of their lines electrified, now.

SPANISH GOVT. IS
 IN SERIOUS PLACE
Strict Censorship Keeps Real
 News From World
By The Associated Press.

Paris, Nov. 1o.-That the situa- lion In Spain is by no means as hap py as Spanish officials wish the out side world to believe is the opinion held in well-informed quarters here.
 A censorship so effective that only the meagerest news seeps through Is in operation, but 1t Is pointed out that the AZ persons arrested along the border by the French authorities after the sanguinary affray at Vera, in the Spanish province of Navarro, were picked up at both extremities of the frontier, and this Is taken to indicate the existence of concerted movement in relation to the trou- bles in Barcelona, timed to start sim ultaneously in several places.
 Both the Spanish constitutional opposition and republican parties disclaim and condemn the nove- ment, which seems to be purely syndicalistic. It is obviously not di- rected against the life of General Primo Rivera, the Spanish premier and military dictator, as he is at present in Morocco with his army, opposing the rebel tribesmen.
 French secret service officials however, are convinced that the Spaniards taken into custody at Per pignan, Banyuls and Hendaye were cocerned in a plot against the mill tary dictatorship.
 In a statement to Le Matin, w. eente Blasco Ibanez, the Spanish novelist who recently declared his opposition to the Rivera regime characterizes the present movement as ''absurd and criminal-absurd be- cause 1t has no chance to succeed and criminal because it has caused useless loss of life."
 He adds that ''it is the doing of z handful of anarchists who must no be confounded in any way with thu republican movement"
 The manifestations, Senor Ibane; Ueclares, were planned and directed from Paris, probably by paid agita tors, and papers stamped with { forged seal of the Barcelona gen eral labor federation were found or some of the persons arrested. II conclusion he says:
 "I am vexed and distressed b, khese sanguinary disorders, and am most anxious to make clear tha we are in no way involved in them.
