INDIANS KEEP 0N
 PLAYING OWN GAME
Sport Greatly Resembles La
 crosse as Seen in Canada

Oklahoma City, June 12 Pl-In- dian ball game requiring almost as much skill as the white mans baseball, was played in Oklahoma before the white man found his way here 10 found his government. build his cities and drill his oil wells. Il resembles the Canadian sport of i lacrosse.
 Details of the game for many ] years the chief sport Of the Indian, are now given by a former player r. ". 4. DUrant, secretary of the Oh lahoma school land department, and ilii.scI a ChoCtaw Indian. To this day the game is played !among IL Indian tribes of eastern ! Oklahoma. Twenty-four players are used. twelve on a side. Two poles. usually fifteen feet high and oi small circumference, are set about | 100 yards apart. Four of the players of each team stand in the center of ithc court while four line mp on each sid.
 | NNttIl Hlill 0lltkS 1 Play begins when the ball is toss . ed in the air. Each Indian has two sticks, about three feet in length, with pockets on the ends formed with buckskin. As the ball goes into 1 the air the eight "centers" try to grasp it with their sticks The play er who succeeds throws the ball, by aid of the sticks, towards his goal post. Should he strike the post. his team is given one point credit.
 Many times an efficient guard will prevent the ball from striking the post and the center who catches the ball then throws it to the side where il is caught by 8 colleague who runs with it until he is near enough to the pole 10 throw the ball at it again. Should a member Of tho loppOang team catch the ball. it is thrown to his post. The team gain ing eight points first, wins the game.
 Game Is Rough
 Rules governing the game are not so strict as in the white mans game of baseball, says Durant. When q player catches the ball between his two sticks an oppOnet may run against him, throwing him off bal ance if possible, may trip him or may throw one of his sticks be- tween the two by which the player lis holding inc ball. thus causing il 10 drop 10 the ground.
 A player i. not allowed 10 touch the ball with his hand, There is no "out of bounds" 10 the court. The bah used is smaller than the hase- ball. l. u-"ally hes a center of lead upon which twine is wound. The cover is of hucEskin.
 "The game i rough one" says Durant. "With all th tripping, striking and iostlns. a player leaves the game with bruises. Many times he iz struck on the head by 2 stick, or his knucl;lss aro cracked by th" club Of an. opponent. Orders were finally iseuod that inc clubs must not weigh over $ certain number of ounces"

S. P. Official Tells Z
HolD to Estimate The
Speed of Fast Train.

How fast is a railroad train run
ming when it is running fast?
Counting telegraph poles, or check
ing clicks of car wheels on rail
joints wont always provide the COR
rect answer, according to R. L..
Ruby, superintendent of transporta-
tion for Southern Pacific.
Length of rails and distances be-
tween poles vary widely in differ
ent parts of the country Ruby said.
I'm open territory, your telegraph
poles average 35 to the mile; but
where severe storms are of season
able occurance, or tracks pass through
mountainous regions there may be
SO or more to the mile.
Rails may be 80, S3 or SO feet in
length, depending on locality and
other conditions. In the case of 33
foot rail, which predominates, there
are 16O rail lengths to the mile, and
a simple method of computing train
speeds is to count the clicks as
wheels pass over these rail joints
The number of clicks counted in 22K
seconds of time will equal the speed
of the train in miles per hour.
More accurate knowledge of speed
can be gained by counting the time
in seconds between mile posts spread
along the right of way. With GO
seconds between posts it is obvious
| the train speed is so miles per
hour. At 145 seconds the speed will
be 24.8 miles; at 12O seconds, 10
miles; at 80 seconds, 40 miles; at sc
seconds, As miles; at 72 seconds, SO
miles, and at So seconds, 69.2 miles
per hour.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEWS GATHERING IS
SHOWN in A MOVIE

The means by which news Of a
national disaster or catastrophe is
relayed from the scene of the hap
myriad newspapers the great or
ganiaztion serves, is being shown in
a special motion picture film "Tne
Romance of the News" just released.
First dropping back to about the
year 184O when news" sometimes
took months to pass from one end
of the continent to the other, the
film gradually leads up to the pres
ent days inconceivable speed in re-
laying important events to an i'm
patient public.
AS an important example, the
eruption of Mt. Vesuvius is shown
in all it's death-dealing aWfulness.
The particular incident opens with
the eruption. A bulletin is flashed
from Naples and is shown being
recorded on a special receiving in
later it comes out as a printed
statement which is, in turn, handed
to the Morse code operators. With
the aid of an elaborate electrical
system the operators telegraph the
story to 500 newspapers in the
United States simultaneously.
The message is then seen being
received in a typical newspaper Of
flee. A copy reader puts a head
on it, composers are seen placing
the ''scarehead" and few seconds
later the plant presses begin to roll,
doing their eternal job of printing,
cutting and folding the papers ready
for delivery on. the street
The entire process takes only 25
minutes, the film shows, and the
stupendous energy expended in the
undertaking, scarcely belieyable, is
only matched by the spectacle of the
eruption of the volcano itself
