HIGH SCHOOLS.
IN TWO GRID
LEAGUES
Class A and Class B Again
Plan in Texas
Football.

AUSTIN, Tex, Aug. 2S.-Dividing
the schools Of the state into two con-
ferences for football competition in
the Interscholastic League of the Uni
versity Of Texas has proved so sue
cessful that his plan will be continued.
according to Roy Henderson, athletic
director IF the league.
The plan of putting all the schools
of $50 or more pupils into conference
A and schools of less than that mum
Der in conference B offers many adj
vantages to both the large and the
small schools. Inter-conferences games
can be played until October IL with
out affecting a schools conferences
standing.
Formerly, Henderson said, the larg-
or high schools had n difficult time
getting schedules as the smaller schools
would not play them because of the
injury the defeat would mean in the
conference standing of the team. This
plan also brings more honors TO the
small school, by l7eeping them in the
race longer. About the last of Novem-
Der the two conferences are thrown
into one for those teams which are
winners at that time. Thus the small
school has a chance for the state
championship.
Last year there were 2SS schools
which were not allowed to compete for
the Interscholastic League awards be-
cause of failure to enroll before the
closing date. which has now been
moved to October 1.

the evenings and dance, and go out
and look in the ice box for some
thing good, cause they know pa and
like it as much as the boys.
"W. L. goes TO prep school, you
know, and we are all mighty inter
ested in athletics. He works hard at
his studies, too. and they make him
stay after school when he does some
thing that isn't just right, because
everybody knows w. L. and it would
not do to let him off easy.
THE little boys around our place
all wait for him to come homo.
They call him 'Strib' and they all
want to fight with him. so he gets
out and gives them all a chance.
Yes, he's kind of n hero to them"

AUSTRALIA GETS
IN DOUBLES
FIN AIS
BY HERBERT REED
BY Universal Service.

LONGWOOD CRICKET CLUB,
CHESTNUT HILLS, Mass, Aug. IS.
Australia's crashing tennis pair, Ger
aid Patterson and John B. Hawkes.,
tore their way through CALIFORNIA;
stars in straight sets here to the final
bracket for the national tennis doubles.
1t was a match of pace all the way,
and Little Bill Johnston and his
partner of old, "Peck" Griffin, stood
up to it as long as they could, with all
the wiles at their command, but there
were too many moments of weakening,
too many mistakes in judging pace ana
distance, too many errors, to give them
chance against the tremendous
smashing of Patterson, and the steady
service of the two invaders. The Cal
ifornians went gamely down to de-
feat by Ga, 6-3, GO.
The Australians will have a rest to-
day, when Richards and Williams meet
the Kinsey brothers, the titleholders,
and will tackle the winners of that en-
counter in the finals on Saturday.

PA" Stribling, father Of
young" Stribling, to whose
knowledge Of conditioning and
untiring efforts the Georgia boy
owes much Of his success.
"He needs about ten miles of
road work every day. He's
pretty fast now and the boy says
he has strength, but he ought to
weigh not more than 1875 pounds.
1t takes hard work but 1 think
it's worth it in Leagues case"
League is not dOwnhearted
about his defeat. He intends to
train hard and fight all corners.
He said Stribling's body blows
were what hurt him most.

The Stribling party is spending
the day seeing San Antonio and will
leave Friday night for Dallas, where
Young" Stribling boxes Peck War
rem Monday night.
There is a chance that "Pa" Strib-
ling will stay over until Saturday
morning to meet Dick Donald, Los
Angeles promoter, here and arrange
for an October 3 meeting on the coast
between young" Stribling and Sailor
Eddie Huffman, who conquered De
laney in a sensational bout at Seattle
not long ago. Stribling has been Of
fered $4,000 for the bout and be-
lieves it will go through.
The house-bus, specially constructed
in which the Striblings have done
most of their travelling, will meet
them at Dallas, driven by Baby"
Stribling, youngest member of the
family. From Dallas, the family will
make a dash overland for Atlanta,
Ca, which is home.
The Striblings were in San Antonio
twice before, but few remember it.
They came in 1908 and 1910 to the
old Airdrome Theater, on the corner
where the Medical Arts building is
now going up, as an acrobatic troupe
known as the Four Novelty Grahams.
"Them was the days." laughed "Pa"

TEMPLE, Tex, Aug. IS. - The
championship of the first half of the
Texas Association baseball season
seems due to be fought out in the
courts. After recovering from the
first shock of learning that Temple did
not win it after all and that the
National Baseball Commission hal
awarded the title to Corsicana, the

attorney who will try to get a re-

Five clubs in the association had
previously voted the first half cham

She's Proud She Raised

She is a pretty woman, Ma Strib-

said, ever since he was a tiny
baby! We began training him
when he was just a little thing and
he loved it. We used to have pillow
fights, and then, when he was a
little bigger, it was boxing. He used
to bring the gloves to me and tease me,
Come on, mamma, play with me!
"We still scrap, but 1 haven't a
chance any more. His arms are too
long, / cant get at him !"
They are much alike, these two, and

ANA TEUR BALL
7 { A N 8 IN
SERIES

Amateur baseball moguls in San An
tonic are running around in circles.
The big news broke when it became
known that the Houston amateur
champion desired to meet the best
team in this city for the South Texas
amateur title.
Secretary Roger Stokes of the San
Antonio Amateur Baseball Commits
sion, Immediately wired the Houston
commission a proposition to send the
local champion to that city for there
games, Sunday and Monday, Septem-
Der 6 and Z. He has not yet received
an acceptance of his dates and terms
but is expecting them at any hour.
The Houston entry probably will be
the Humble Oil team, Secretary Stokes
said. The winner of the San An
tonic Houston series will 90 to either
Fort Worth or Dallas the following
week to play the North Texas cham
pion for state honors.
FIVE TEAMS IN RACE.
As soon as he received the Houston
def, Secretary Stokes called a confer
cnce of the managers of the five To-
cal amateur teams which still have a
chance to cop the championship and
worked out an agreement among them
for the purpose Of selecting a team to
go to Houston. The five teams rep
resented at the meeting were: Pitts.
burg Heaters and Public Service Utili.
ties of the City League; Mckinley
Club and the Elks of the Saturday
League.
1t was agreed by the five managers
that none of the games played to Sc
lect the San Antonio representative
would count in the local championship
race, but that as soon as the state
title was settled the teams would re.
sumo their local struggle.
IL the Statesmen defeat the De Mo-
lays at Van Dazzle Stadium Saturday
afternoon in thoir regular Saturday
League game, they will be crowned
champions of the second half. They

day League representative.
MAY BE A TIE.
But, in case the Statesmen lose their
Saturday game, and the Elks defeat
the Methodists, it will throw the two
teams into a tie for the second half
title. In that event they will play it
off Sunday afternoon, the winner
meeting Mckinley Avenue Monday
afternoon.
Public Service Utilities, with a game
lead to their credit, play the Pitts
burg Heaters Sunday afternoon in
their last scheduled game. If the
Utilities win they will be champs Of
the City League and in position to
fight it out with the Saturday League
winner for the right to 20 to Hous-
ton. If the Heaters win, tying the
Utilities for the league, the two teams
will play it off either Monday or
Tuesday.
Then the winners of the elimination
series In the two leagues will meet
either Wednesday or Thursday after
noon for the privilege of going to
Houston.

PASSING SNAP JUDGMENT

Citizens and organizations, tcs, sometimes pass snap iudg-
ment on this question or that, and afterward either have to
retraft @ continue in a policy which they themselves may half
way believe to be wrong. There are two sides to a board. and
there is two sides to any question or controversy usually which
may come up. ~
This is very true in the matter of Park extension. For some
years efforts have been made to change the boundaries of Vel
iowstone National park, and always there has been a strong
opposition; Some of this opposition is due to those who con-
sclously object to an action of this kind, while a great amount
OF 1t comes from the great throng who think that that terrible
tyrant the federal government is seeking to get something
away from Wyoming.
Much has been said already of the many reasons why Wyo-
ming should be unwilling to relinquish any more territory to
Yellowstone park, but not a word from the parks side of the
question. Horace M. Albright, superintendent of Yellowstone
park Will be in Cody tomorrow, and will present the parks side
OF OF the extension controversy. Whether you are for ii, or against
him to tell you of the park services plans and aims. and mavbe
you will change your mind regarding the matter.
1t does not matter the least whether you finally for
the park extension o against it, you should make an effort to
secure the true facts regarding the matter before you take
SNAP Judgement"
