Conjecture is strong as to just

interests are preparing for at least
two wells to be drilled as soon as
equipment can be assembled. Leases
have been let to the Ohio for wells
in-the lower part of the Basin and
1t is almost certain that several
other companies will become inter
.ested soon.
The decision of the oil companies
to direct its pipe line to Cody
comes both as a surprise and a
boom to the town. With the refin-
cries al Greybull, it was felt that
that might be considered the logi-
cal Joint for the pipe line to go
to However it is generally under
stood that the black oil which is to
be delivered from the Basin is to
be used for fuel purposes. and it is
very possible that only a pipe line
and a car loading equipment will
be located here.

Some Good Clubbers

When it comes to hitting, Cincin-
NATL has the two leaders of the cir
cult, Rube Bressler, an outfielder,
and Bubbles Hargrave, catcher.
There still is some controversy as TO
which of these is entitled to the Ma
ttonal League batting crown. but
Hendricks should wprry-they are
both on his club.
Bressler hit 1857 for eighty-six con-
tests, Hargrave 1853 for los games.
Bubbles also had the excellent field
ing average of 1888.
Wally Pipp played throughout the
season at first base, compiling a
fielding average of 1922. which shows
he was reliable mark for the young
Cincinnati infield to throw at.
Crit3 in All Games
Hughie Critz, the Reds second
baseman, was another Iron man"
who didn't miss a game, and who set
two new fielding records in addition.
Hughie accepted 945 chances and
made 5SS assists, both new marks
for the National League.
Neither Pinelli or Dresser dis
tinguished himself at bat during the
past season, the latter being the bet
ter hitter with a mark Of .265, but
both fielded well up with the league
leaders. A smuggling third baseman
would look sweet in a Cincinnati
uniform.
In the outfleld, Hendricks was
well supplied with talent. Bressler
led the league. Next came Hargrave,
and then Christensen, another Red
outfielder, with a mark of $50 for
ia games. The latter is a great
fielder, as well. Eddie Roush hit 1928,
and Curtis Walker 800.
Naturally, Cincinnati led the
league in team batting, with a mark
of .290.

APPLIES TO INDIVIDUALS

A young man from Manual comes
across with the question to our now
regularly established question and
answer bureau with the following
inquiry;
May a student play in more than
twenty games of basketball during
the season on different teams?
No The twenty-game limitation
applies to individuals as well as
teams. That ruling was established
to prevent boys from straining them
selves during the season. Twenty
games was believed a logical num-
Der of games. 1t was mainly for
the players, not the teams.

Terrific Fight Predicted in
National, HoWever-Hen-
drickSmen Are Strong.
BY Frank Getty

NEW YORK, Jan. From this
distance, 1t is hard to see how the
Cincinnati Reds can fail to win the
National League pennant in 1927
It looks like a five-team race, and
a close one, however.
Jack Hendricks team not only is
the strongest on paper, but possesses
greater possibilities for improving its
1925 form than any Of its rivals.
The National League is unusually
weak in pitchers, but the staff which
has Pete Donohue, Carl Mays. Eppa
RiXey and Adolfo Luque as its nu-
cleus looks as strong as any at this
stage.

CHICAGO, August 6.-There is in
Chicago church where hymns are

Church, u church for the deaf and

For 80 years the sign language
has been used entirely in this unu-

ish of its kind in the west.
All Angels Church came into ex
istance III 1875, and for 20 years
was without a resident pastor, since
only two deaf mutes had been ad-
i,itted to the Episcopal ministery at
that time.
The Rev. George Frederick Flick
was called as resident pastor in
1905 and is still with the mission. In
1915 a church building was purchas-
ed for $4,000.
Approximately $50 deaf mutes are
affiliated with the church, and eff

deaf persons in Chicago. Social
functions are held and complete
