Secretary Roy b. Henderson of the

sprout a crop of gray hairs over night
If Coach Tom Dennis big Maroon
eleven upsets the dope and ticks the
i. giles. Of course, Henderson doesn't
say so, but.
If Breckenridge High wins, that
eleven will be officially recognized as
the representative of District s in
the state race. But, if Austin wins,
Secretary Henderson may be trying
to arrive at the proper representative
from now until Christmas.
A victory for Breckenridge will
give that team a clean bill of health.

and Austin High. the other two CON
tenders for the district title. If Aus
tin is victorious, Corpus Christi will
automatically come back into the race,
having played 7-to-7 tie with Aus
TN stNcTdl WcekS ago.
GUNS UP PLANS.
A meeting held shortly before the
start of the present season at the
Gunter hotel did much to gum up Mr..
HendersOn's annual race for state
honors. but it has also had an in
vigorating effect in many ways, OF
which more anon.
It was a meeting called for the
purpose of forming the South Texas
High School Football League. com
posed Of six or seven of the leading
high schools in South Texas. The
league was formed. to all intents and
purposes, with Main Avenue High.
breckenridge High, Houston Heights,
Houston Central, Austin High. Port
Arthur High and Corpus Christi
High in the lineup. They drew up
interlocking schedules and some of
them promised to stand by their con-
tracts, no matter what the Inter
scholastic League ordered them to
10.
FOUR TEAIS BARRED.
But. when Mr.. Henderson had the
matter called TO his attention and de-
cidcd TO take action. he proceeded to
bar Main Avenue High. Port Arthur
High and both of the Houston entries
from the state league. The other
three did not buck the state league
and remained as members.
Thus, it comes about that although
Austin High and Breckenridge High
both have sustained defeats, these
beatings came at the hands of non
members Of the InterschOlastic League
and do not count against them. Aus
Tin. in fact, has been defeated twice
and has not yet succeeded in defeat
ing any of its confederates in the
South Texas League. breckenridge
went TO the finals through its victory
over Corpus Christi.
Of those teams which entered the
South Texas loop. Houston Central
was the most unfortunate in so far
as the state race is concerned. That
eleven holds victories over both Main
Avenue and breckenridge High
schools and has not been defeated,
yGt it does not get a shot at the state
title.

Vehicles Old and Young
Gathered by F0rd's Hobby

Detroit, Mich. Apr. 20 (By A. P.)-
AS the moro active days of his car
eer respond to the inexorable toll Of
years. Henry Ford is making a new
claim to distinction and in a new
field-hstory. The man who has
been quoted as saying history is
bunk" is quietly gathering from all
parts of America what is regarded
by historians as one of the greatest
collections of vehicles in existence.
The collection is just one Of sew
eral that slowly are being formed at
his Dearborn, Mich, property.
ALTHOUGH inaugurated primarily as
collection of physical objects illus
trating the origin and progressive
evolution of transportation facili-
ties, the collection now has overlap.
ped that limitation and has come to
include more or less completed lines
ress of mechanical invention and
achievement in almost every depart
nent of human interest.
In the collection may be found
one-horse chaise that was built in
dred years and a day" There Is q
fine old gig Of the colonial period
and a calash Cor caleche) which was
thought very stylish by the Pilgrims.
Then there Is an old mail coach of
the type used for passengers. bagg-
age and mail, with provisions for
outside passengers on top.
Then there is the Conestoga wagon
or prairie schooner, a genuine AM
erican product that followed the
first mountain roads out of the east
ern states, threaded the vast plains
crossed the Rockies and brought the
first settlers to Oregon and Califor-
mia. The Concord coach, which was
regarded as the last work in trans
portation and was capable of 16
miles an hour, also is represented,
as also Is the Pennsylvania buck
board, sometimes called the "Adam
and Eve Wagon" because it was
built for two.
Other exhibits are the common
blackboard, which was the first of
the American light spring wagons;
the phaeton, regarded late in the
eighteenth century as the apex of
style, the enclosed body, the Ameri-
can buggy often called the queen"
of the horse drawn passenger We
hicles and an old coupe-sleigh of
the early statehood period.
A two-horse "sociable" in the col
lection was considered the top of the
list Of modern carriages in Civil
War days. There also is an Ameri-
can racing sulky and several speci-
mems of ancient and modern fire
fighting apparatus.
A curiosity is the old Dearborn
band wagon, with its spring seats,
placed on an ordinary wagon box.
1t was in this wagon that Henry
Ford, an uncle of the automobile
manufacturer, played the fife in a
musical organization which also in
cluded a flutist, one snare drum and
one bass drum player and an alter
nate bass drummer.
The collection also includes the
first Ford automobile, with its four
high solid-rubber tired. steel-spoked
wheels, its dashboard. kerosene head
light, steering rod and conspicuous
flywheel of the exposed motor. This
vehicle was built in 1894.

OWNER LIABLE
FOR INJURY BY
VICIOUS animal

The owner of a vicious animal is
liable for injuries received by others
when near the animal, even If con-
tributory negligence can be proved,
according to ruling recently hand
cd down by Justice Sturgis in the
Kennebec County case of Joseph
Sandy VS.. A. w. Bushey, overruling
motion of defendant for ne wtrial.
The rescript further sets forth that
the fact must be established that the
injury Is attributable not to the
keeping OF the animal but to the
injured party's unnecessarily and
voluntarily putting himself in way
to be hurt, knowing the probable
consequence of his act, in order that
the owner be not liable.
The rescript follows:
The plaintiff was kicked by the
defendants horse and brings this
action on the case to recover dam
ages for injuries received.
HELD:
The owners or keepers of domestic
animals are not answerable for an
injury done by them in place
where they have right to be unless
the animals in fact and to the own
ers' knowledge are vicious. If. how
ever, p6ISOu kSSpS VICIOUS OF
dangerous animal which he knows
is accustomed to attack and injure
mankind. he assumes the obligation
of an insurer against injury by such
animal, and no measure of care in
its keeping will excuse him. His
liability is founded upon the keep
ing of such an animal when he has
knowledge Of its vicious propensities.
and his care or negligence is imma-
terial. Negligence is not the ground
of liability and need not be alleged
or proved.
'The facts in the instant case
fairly tend to establish that the de-
fendant's horse was vicious and that
the defendant had knowledge of this
fact.
"Contributory negligence is not q
defense to this action. in order to
relieve the keeper of known vicious
animal from his liability as an insur-
err, the fast must be established that
the injury is Attributable not to the
keeping of the animal but to the in
jured .party'S unnecessarily and VOL
UNFAIRLY putting himself in way to
be hurt. knowing the probable con-
sequence OF his act. so that he may
fairly be deemed to have brought
the injury upon himself. The, facts
disclosed by the evidence do not
bring the plaintiff within this rule.
The motion for o new trial is over

rangements had been completed and
the Augusta postal workers and their
ladies were to have made the trip In
