Deming High Team
To Meet Douglas
Bulldogs Saturday

The Derning, New Mexico, high
school football team will arrive in
Douglas Friday night ready to clash
with the Bulldogs Saturday on the
local gridiron. Coach Delbert A.
Bivens of the visiting aggregation has
a strong team this year, having won
from Hatch 19 to 0 and from Silver
City 81 to 6. The New Mexico squad
is a powerful scoring machine as
evidenced by their lop-sided count at
Silver City when they crossed the
goal line for five touchdowns.
Athletic Manager William Thomp-
son and % players will make the
trip to Douglas. En- route to Douglas
the Deming second string will meet
the Lordsburg team on Friday, after
which they will leave for Douglas.
The Deming lineup contains the
names of several of their last years
squad which the Bulldogs had hard
time beating, the final score being
y to 0. They are; Berry, center;
Black, guard; Hamilton, guard;
Brown, tackle; Louman, tackle; Mar
ian, end; Millard (captain), end;
Kennedy, quarterback; Boyd, left
halfback; Petty, right halfback;
Burns, fullback. Substitutes are Wells,
Ronninger, Al Boyd. Thompson.
The Douglas team has played DEM

SQUAD FOR BIG
GAME SATURDAY

LOS ANGELES, Oct "a (E9-Secret
practice, called for the second time
this season, began today for the
University of Southern California
footballers in their preparation for
the crucial test here Saturday with
CaIifornia's Golden Bears, which, in
the opinion of many experts, Writ
ually will settle the Pacific coast
conference race. Coach Howard Jones
excluded all observers today and
plans to continue secret practice up
to Saturday, as he did before the
Stanford game two weeks ago.
The Cardinal and Gold coach told
his men that two things must be
done Saturday for the Trojans TO
have any chance of toppling the
Bears. These conclusions he drew
after watching California upset the
Olympic club at Berkeley Saturday
That the Trojans must Ee::.y fault
less football at the tackle and end
positions; and that the easily penet-
erable S. G.. pass defense must be
stiffened.
Prices aerial plays are of the very
type that has caused the Trojans
so much trouble this year, Jones said.
They are likely to draw the safety
man close in, and then deceptively
end with the ball sailing over his
head to an unseen end or back far
down the field. Drilling against these
began today with the ineligibies
lined up in the California forward
pass formations against the varsity.

and Mines has just received a ship
mente of posters from the Arizona
Industrial Congress which they are
requested to give out for the better
ment Of dairying conditions in Ariz-
ona.
The little posters call attention to
the dairy industry as a great md
growing one in the state and point
out that the way for everyone to
boost this industry is to demand only
Arizona dairy products at the grocery.
The poster especially emphasizes
the use of canned milk, stating THAI
three brands of canned milk are pro-
duced in this state, that it is the
very best of canned milk and that
the use of it will boost the dairy
industry.

va11ia, 300
The week previous Pennsylvania
had defeated Browns supposedly in
vincible Iron Men," while Penn State
had lost to Bucknell.
Lafayette, figured to have the
strongest team in, years, could get no
better than tie with West Virginia.
Lafayette had been picked to win by
from three to five touchdoWns. The
score was TT.
Syracuse showed surprising strength
in defeating the powerful Georgetown
eleven, 1876, while a vastly improved
Harvard team beat Holy Cross de-
ciSively.
If these form reverSaIS continue
each week end what busy win
ter it is going to be for the
statisticians who try to prove
things by the use of ''figgers."
ALABAMA GETS LOSS
The south also produced food for
gossip in the defeat of the Alabama
team, three times southern conference
champions. Georgia Tech turned the
trick, 1870. It was the first time
Tech team had scored on Alabama
in five years.
Vanderbilt, regarded as one of the
outstanding teams in the south, was
badly jolted by Texas, 1870
In the far west, Stanford and
Southern California played to a tie
It was the same story in every sec
ton, reverse upon reverse and in
great many cases no logical reasons
to offer for the upheaval.

If uncertainty means anything
and it usually makes for plenty
of interest, this promises to be
great year for football.

SUNDAYS Horse.
RACE FAILS To
PLEASE CROWDS.

What was described by the cowboys
and racing fans themselves as the
rlination of horse racing in this dis
trict occurred on Sunday afternoon
at the International speedway when
the much heralded matcn race be-
tween Frank Eaton'S brown N,rsc
and Frank WeWerk's Cow Boy was
run to II ringing accompaniment OF
jeers and booS
Out OF number Of races run
Sunday afternoon the big match
event was the only one showing g
pair of horses fairly evenly matched.
An agreement had been drawn up
stipulating that Wewerk would ride
his own horse wIi~e a we'll known
cowboy jockey WGs to ride Elttns
horse. Although Wewerk had ridden
all oyer the fairgrounds during the
afternoon he complained Q: a pain
in his back when the big event was
called and asked that he be per-
H1itted to pick a.lc ther ride for his
horse
This was agreed to and several
good riders were called out Finally
a taxi driver who is said not to
have been on horse for five years
was chosen. The horses got away
good and came down the stretch in
fine shape with Wewerl.s horse in
the lead When nearing the ribbon
the taxi driver jockey suddenly lost
his stirrups and his reinS and flanked
his mount heavily. Eaton's horse
crossed the ribbon in the lead.
The crowd was utterly disgusted.
Earlier in the afternoon severaI events
had been pulled off that had not
cheered anyone except those with a
humorous complex From 80 minutes
to an hour was wasted between events
and when they were run the bright
lights in each we're the comical angles
of them. One race was between q
