doubleheader Tuesday afternoon, the
boys winning 9 to 4, while the girls
won IL to 5. In the boys game
Shortstop Breton, for Clawson, played
a strong game. Moscozo, Loery, Ear-
zell and Davis also played well for
the losers. WildneSs on the part of
the Clawson pitcher was responsible
for most of the avenue runs. The
fielding of both teams was on a par.
The avenue girls were better in
hitting ability and thus won over
their opponents. Frank Mundine,
doing the backstopping for the avenue
team and Paul Bise were invincible
in the pincheS and never allowed
their opponents many chances on the
bases. Loery, right gardener for the
Clawson team, pulled a "bonehead''
by not running out an infield ground

two runs to cross the rubber but
neither counted as it was the. third

COOLIDGE TO HEAR
NAVY PLANS TODAY
President Will Confer With
Secretary Wilbur on
Building Program.
By the Associated Press.

RAPID CITY, s. Oak, August s.
An American naval policy which
would push to completion the building
Of II cruisers with S-inch guns in
addition to those already building or
authorized was one of the possibilities
of discussion by President Coolidge
with Secretary Wilbur who arrived
today as a guest at the Summer
White House.
Although it was believed here that
the President might assent to the
carrying out of the original cruiser
building program, it was not expected
that the failure Of the Geneva confer.
ence would result in a cruiser build
ing race between Great Britain and
the United States.
There is no definite information
here as to the number of cruisers
which the administration thinks
should he built, but the number prob
ably will not exceed 20. including
those already provided for.
Presidents View.
President Coolidge has taken the
view that the United States should
build only so many cruisers as are
necessary to the national defense,
and this opinion, coupled with the
economic problem as presented by the
administration desire for further tax
reduction, is held to be a guarantee
against any ambitious cruiser-building
program.

Wood in Telegram
To Soldiers Widow

By the Associated Press
RAPID CITY, $. Oak, August S.
The Filipino people have lost a true
friend and the United States a great
public servant in the death OF Leonard
Wood, declared President Coolidge in
| a. message to Mrs. Wood. made public
here today.
The Presidents telegram follows:
II want to extend my deep sympa-

you in the death of your husband.
Eminent as a soldier, it was his higher
privilege to allay the suffering which
war had wrought and through wise
and patient effort to bring again the
blessings of peace and ordered gov
ernment.
Gen. Woods record in the Philip
pines was one of self-sacrificing devo-
ton and I believe that as the years
pass there will come an increasing
realization that in his going the Fill
p.no people have lost a true friend and
our own country a great public

Larger Pipes and More Outlets May
Be Urged in Place of
High Pressure.

The possibility OF enlarging existing
mains and increasing the number of
fire hyC "ants as means of affording
better fire protection will be dealt with
exhaustively in the report of the com.
mittee appointed to inquire into the
advisability of installing the high
pressure system of fire protection in
the central part Of the city, which will
be submitted to the Commissioners
this afternoon or tomorrow, it was
learned today.
The committee in it's inquiry not
only went into the cost and advan-
tages of high pressue, but gave con-
siderable thought to the merits of
other Improvements in fire-fighting
facilities as an alternative for high
pressure system.
The committee visited New York
and Baltimore to gather first-hand
data on the operation of highpressure
mains, and in the metropolis it also
conferred with insurance officials as
to the probable reductions in insur-
ance rates that might be granted
Washington if high pressure was in
stalled or il other alternative i'm
provements were made over a larger
area Of the city than would be served
by the high-pressure mains.
