Plans to Close Player Deals
Before Magnates
Convene.

A special train. in several sec
lions, all loaded down with baseball
club owners. managers, players, UNI.
pires, scribes and just plain fans, will
ron into Los Angeles, Cal, January
10, for the annual meeting of the Ma
tional Association of Professional
Baseball. Clubs, the minor leaguers'
governing body, on Catalina Island.
the following week.
But Harry Agles, president of the
San Antonio Baseball Club, will not be
aboard.
The Bears boss will meet the boys
at the station and hopes to be able
to accept the congratulations of his
fellow magnates on the acquisition CT
several players, arrangements for
whose services next summer in San
Antonio uniforms he intends to make
with their present Coast League boss
es before the big party of minor
league baseballers arrive from the
North and East.
LEAVES WEDNESDAY.
The Bruin boss will leave San An
tonic next Wednesday night for Ter.
rell. to spend Christmas with his
father, who is owner Of the Terrell
Club Of the Texas Association.
The turkey will be eaten hastily to
permit Harry to HE westward without
delay and meet his new manager, Carl
(Honus) Mite, at Oakland, Mites
home town.
Together, Ables and Mite will track
the elusive ball player to his lair.
Ables seeks pitchers. especially left
handed pitchers-there'll be three OF
these on the staff if that many good
ones can be found-also a couple Ct
infielders and an outfielder.
MORE FROM CARDS.
Silence on the part of Branch
Hickey, of the st. Louis Cardinals, is
holding up announcements of at least
two new Bears, an infielder and q
pasture patrolman, TO be secured from
the Cards. Hickey has been deep in
private business deals and has taken
the attitude that there is plenty of
time to make baseball deals before the
1926 season rolls around.
On the coast, Mite writes that he
has a couple of men "lined up" be
would like very much to have for bis
first club in San Antonio. and Harry
Ables viii try to get these men for
Honus.
Ables and Mite for many years
were battery mates for Oakland, when
Ables was one Of the greatest south
paw beavers in the business, and the
baseball ideas of him and his club
manager run along the same chan
nels. which Harry thinks ought to be
conducive 10 harmony and beneficial TO
San Antonio's chances in the pennant
gallop.

SCHOOLS
REMAIN IN
HIGH RACE
Cleburne Eliminated by
Cisco-Waco Play
ing Beaumont.

AUSTIN, Tex, Dec. 16.-Of the
five teams which stood at the portals
of the Texas high school football
championship at the beginning of the
present week, only three will remain
at nightfall Wednesday, and by Sat
urday the two finalists will have been
selected. The title game will be played
Christmas day.
Those teams which remained in the
race Wednesday morning were cisco,
Waco. Beaumont and Forest Avenue
of Dallas. Either Beaumont or Waco
will be eliminated Wednesday, when
Coach Paul Tyson's powerful Yellow
jackets meet Bull" Johnson's Royal
Puppies at Beaumont in a semi-final
battle.
CLEBURNE ELIMINATED.
Cleburne, which was defeated, IA to 3,
by the big Dam" Loboes of Cisco
High at Cisco Tuesday afternoon. The
Loboes were forced to launch power
full offensive in the second half to
overcome the three-point lead held by
Cleburne ss the result of a field goal
in the second quarter. Cisco and Gle
burne had fought to scoreless tie at
Cleburne last week.
Cisco will meet Forest Avenue at
Fair Park Stadium in Dallas Satur-
day afternoon in the semi-finals.
Cleburne threw bad scare into the
Loboes when Bratcher place-kicked
field goal in the second period, while
the Loboes were unable seriously to
threaten the Yellowjacket offense.
TUMBLE COSTS GAME.
Cisco scored its first touchdown in
the third quarter on q break" when
a fumbled punt was recovered on Gle
burns five-yard line and "Pinkey" AL
sabrook took the ball over. Alsa-
brook also scored the second touch
down a few minutes later, weaving his
way So yards through the sturdy Gle
burne defense. He kicked both goals
after touchdown.
Cleburne came back with a fine
passing attack in the closing minutes
Of play, threatening to score couple
of times.
HARD.FOUGHT GAME.
Wednesdays battle between Waco
and Beaumont for supremacy in South
Texas is expected 70 be as bitterly
contested rs the two Cisco eburne
trays. The two elevens have met in
the semi-finals of the state race three
times in the last four years, and each |
time Beaumont has felt the sting of
defeat.
Both the Waco and Beaumont eley-
ems are practically intact from last |
year. Beaumont will send ten men
into the game which took part in the
semi-final scrap a year ago. Beau |
mont's line, with half of its members
scaling over 1s5 pounds, probably is
the heaviest forward wall Of any high |
school eleven in the state.
Arrangements have been made to
seat 5000 spectators.

Slip In Earth Fault
Cause of TrembIings
Continued from first page)

"The effect of a sudden slip alont
a fault" said DR.. Clapp, els to sene
out vibrations in all directions ant
those vibrations are the earthquake
as it is felt at a distance from the
place of origin.v
Earthquakes, in other words, are
vibrations of the crust that are SCI
up by a slip, as a jelly is set in mo.
ton by the breaking off or slipping
of a small piece.
1.-The waves travel at a speed de-
pending on the elasticity and den
sity of the medium thru which they
move.
Zone set of earthquake waves
travel in a straight or nearly straight
line thru the earth at a speed of
six to eight miles per second and a
second set of waves travel around
or near the surface at a rate of
two to four miles per second"
DR.. Clapp stated that the earth
quake wave is very small, rarely
more than one-sixteenth of an inch,
but destructiveness is caused by
their extremely rapid movement and
sequence.
"The destruction also depends up
on the freedom of motion of the body
affected. Thus, things like chimneys,
loose objects and hanging light fix
lures are greatly affected.
"Altho earthquakes occur most
frequently and violently in two prin-
cipal zones, one following the shores
of the Pacific ocean and the other
surrounding the earth not far from
the equator, all portions of the
world are affected by tremors. Dur
ing historical times no major earth
quake has occurred in the Rocky
mountain region, alttho minor ones
have been fairly frequent. The earth
quake felt last night in Montana is
perhaps the most severe ever record
ed here.
"In spite of our records in the
matter of earthquakes, there are
plenty of indications of prehistoric
disturbances in the mountain states.
Nearly all of our mountain ranges
are the results of faults and the
movements along some faults have
changed recent geography in a min
,r way. DIR. Roy Wilson found IN
IN old mine tunnel in the Flathead
'ange evidence of a recent displace-
nent along one of the major faults
which outline the range"

STRUCK BY QUAKE
Continued from first page)


Relief stations were opened at the
city hall. At noon when the first
telegraph wire to the outside world
was obtained, the list of dead was
12, although the toll will be greater,
it is feared, when some of the fall
en- walls are removed, and it is
thought several persons were trap
ped in the debris.
Scores of persons were hurt, al
though most of the injuries were OF
a minor nature. The city is without
power or gas.
Sheffield reservoir, which is the
immediate source of the city water
was demolished, but the flow from
the main dam high in the mountains
seems unchecked. The San Marcos
building, the largest office building
in the city was practically demolish-
ed. The north wing of the four
story structure fell in a tangled
heap, and it is feared that several
persons are dead under the piles of
brick and plaster.
The New California hotel, just
completed, is a hopeless wreck. The
outside wales shook down but the
main portion of the building is
standing. The Corrillo hotel also
suffered seriously from the earth
quake. Turnout the residential Sec
ton of the east side houses were
fitting in topsy turvy style.
Seattle Man Gives Vivid Description
Ole Hanson, former mayor of
Seattle, gave the following eye-wit-
ness account of the earthquake:
'It was about 6:44 a. M, the air
was sultry. Everything was very
quiet. I noticed as 1 lay on my bed
that quite a large wave dashed
against the beach.
"The ground seemed to raise up
with a crunch, something like a mil
lion dogs crunching on a bone.
81 leaped out of bed and the floor
seemed to rise up and hit me. L
stepped again and it seemed as
tho I could not reach the floor.
Awakens Neighbors
"Like all animals except the horse,
in time of trouble, l dashed for the
open air and began to bang on the
neighboring bungalows to rouse the
occupants and get them out in the
open park.
"Then / heard an explosion like a
great fuse and l saw the walls Of the
power plant a block away fall, then
bright blue flame such as they use
in movies at night lit up the heavens
and then flashed out. Right behind
me 1 heard a rending. Two blocks
away I saw the walls of the new
California hotel lean over gradually
and collapse, leaving the occupants
ying safely in bed some covered and
some uncovered. They all escaped.
"The ground rolled like a slight
wave hitting a canoe. There was no
