Oakland Flattens kitzmiller 20.

Oakland High easily broke up the
line of defense put up by Kitzmiller
in the deciding game of the soccer
ball series in the last three minutes
of play at Kitzmiller on last Wednes-
day. 1t all came about when an Oak
land High kick, during geological
transformation passed through the
line and into the back field, thudded
up the field and then down again with
the resultant score of 2-0-a victory
that will be long remembered by the
members of the team Of the Glass Of
1926. Oakland's one month dream of
a victory over Kitzmiller came true,
and this again and fol the fourth con-
secutive year gave the championship
to The Oakland team.
At the end # the first half the
teams were deadlocked. At the sound
Of the whistle they wege at it again,
playing for the glory OF 0, H. S.
Both teams were at their hest and
three minutes before the game was
over Johnny Wolf scored the first
point by a free kick ten yards back
Of the penalty ares and then with
hardly "a seconds time lett he scored
the last point from the penalty area.
The Oakland High team will con-
tinue practicing so they will be in
form to play in the State champion
ship games.

DRY LEADER PLEASED.
Wheeler Approves New War, in Talk
With Coolidge.

The Coast Guard is meeting with
great success in it's battle against
the rum fleets, according to Wayne
B. Wheeler, attorney for the Anti
Saloon League.
During a conference with President
Coolidge today Mr.. Wheeler ex-
pressed the hearty approval he
found throughout the country on his
recent trip, of the activities of the
Coast Guard and of the administra-
tion's program of -ordinating law
enforcement activities.
Mr. Wheeler said afterward that
he is of the opinion if politics is
divorced from prohibition enforce
ment and the various branches of the
Government indulge in real team
work, as is planned, prohibition en-
forcement will be Speeded up tre-
nIendously this year. He said he told
the President that the dry forces are
renewing their efforts to get the
States to do their share of law en-
for cement. New York, Maryland and
Nevada are Goddess, and, therefore,
the Federal Government must do
practically all the enforcement in
these States, the dry leader ex-
planned.

President Coolidee'S drive for econ
nmy in Federal expenditures will re-
suit in another substantial cut in the
annual budget. He hopes the reduc-
ton will be as great as $500, 100000,
making total estimates to be submit
ted to the next Congress we'll below
S3 900 600 900.
Present budget estimates for the
year beginning next June 80 are for
3,267, 900 900. exclusive of the Post
Office Department, but including pub
lic debt requirements. These appro-
priations already have been made.
Budget Director Lord is returning
TO Washington Saturday after a
months tour, in which he carried the
Presidents economy program in
speeches direct to thousands of tax
payers. Upon his return he will be-
gin the drafting of the next budget
in conferences with the President.
Preliminary estimates already have
been turned over to the budget by
several governmental branches. and
although final estimates are not due
until September, it has been Director
Lords policy to begin the work early
in order TO arrive at a figure from
which reductions can be made.
The Treasury soon can supply the
budget with additional figures as to
the probable surplus for the current
fiscal year, a surplus that now prom
ises to be about 10000 900. 1t like
wise will he in d position TO forecast
more definitely the receipts that may
be counted on from taxes in the fiscal
year beginning July l. The Treasury
already counts on cut of about $780,
100000 i'll expenditures through addi-
tional retirement of war bonds.
Will Broadcast Meeting.
The question of tax reduction is in
timately connected with the surplus.
Unofficial estimates at the Treasury
now indicate that the total volume of
tax receipts may be cut by II per
cent. The method will be determined
by Congress, but Secretary Mellon
has suggested reduction of surtaXes
and elimination of, or material reduc-
tion in, the rates on estate taxes.
The June budget meeting to be ad-
dressed by the President will provide
a rather definite outline of what the
administration hopes to do both as to
expenses and taxation. The admins
tration's pronounCement probably viii

payers through tn emedium of a
