Game Results IL to Z
For Delta Gridsters

The first football game on home
grounds of the Lexington High School
took place Friday afternoon when the
Purple Wave met the Greenwood team
and were defeated by small margin,
score IL to 7.
To the lovers of clean sport and ad-
mirers of we'll trained squad of high
school players, Lexington carried out the
old saying that there is glory in defeat,
combating odds that earned them the
highest praise by local supporters.
There was never a minute of play but
exemplified superior team work on the
part of the Purple Wave and only the
unlimited reserve strength of the Green
wood warriors was able to penetrate the
defense made by Captain Gee-gee Wat
son and his team mates. This factor of
being able to send in fresh men at re-
peated intervals told on the Lexington
squad and only by small margin of
| one touchdown earned as Greenwood got
| a lucky break in the second quarter
when a wobby punt and the only one
of the locals offerings, proved decis-
| i've loss to Lexington, Greenwood recov-
! ering on the 20 yard line and carrying
the ball over for counter.
Lexington scored the first touchdown
| when Pickens sent a long lateral pass
| to Henley who snagged the ball in mid
| air and supported with perfect interfer-
ence ran 80 yards for marker Cap
| tain Watson bucked the ball over for the
extra counter, and the game settled in
| to a puntng duel, neither side being
able to gain any advantage, until the
short punt was recovered by the visitors,
as Lexington attempted to get out of
danger near the 10 yard line in the sec
ond quarter.
The second half renewed the determi-
nation of the gridsters in their battle
for supremacy and every inch of ground
was bitterly contested Greenwood fin
| ally getting over score by the brilli-
ant work of Chambless, quarter back of
| the visitors. James Carr, flashy half
back for Greenwood, aiding in the drive.
Lexington offered galaxy of stars
in their lineup, and the line and back
| field functioned like clock-work Every
signal brought response of team work
that elected admiration of the whole
side lines. Captain Watson and his
fighting machine are real football play
ers and their record is worthy of the
pace they are establishing.
The game was we'll attended, scores
from Greenwood driving over to witness
the event, even two spectators, Bub Pep
per and Billie Smith, flying over to view
the battle.
The lineup was as follows:

PRODUCTION
!. AND HIGHER PRICES
HELP AGRICULTURE
Federal Farm Department Re-
ports Stronger Position
Than a Year Ago

Washington, Nov. 1.-nP,-The De-
partmcnt Of Agriculture announced
today that its November reports
showed agriculture to be in stronger
position this year than year ago
largely on account Of lower pr0duc-
ton and higher prices.
Since early summer. the depart
ment said. prices OF practically all
groups Of farm commodities with the
exception Of meat animals. had in
creased.
The total output Of principal food
and feed crops this year, 1t continued
would be somewhat below that Of last
year although the acreage harvested
would be about the same Hay was
listed as the only important crop
which substantially exceeds produc-
tion Of last year
Notwithstanding favorable weather
in September. the department added
crops Of grain. potatoes. sweet pota-
toes and tree fruits would be smaller
than last season and 1t now seemed
probable that yields per acre Of al
crops combined would average 7 per
cent below yields last year and pei
cent yields of the preceding 10 years
Cattle Feeding Slower
Poorer corn prospects this summer
the report said. influenced cattle
feeders to reduce their operations
The lower level Of cattle prices and
smaller feeding profits during the
first half OF the year tended to slow
down cattle feeding operations.
The number Of cattle and calves
shipped from markets into the corn
belt between July l and September
30 was 20 per cent below last year
It was the second smallest movement
Of feeder cattle for that period in II
years.
Sheep Total Steady
Information the early part Of last
month, the report said. indicated
there would be about as many sheep
and lambs fed this fall as year ago.
1t appears that the eastern part OF
the corn belt will feed more lambs,
Colorado and western Nebraska will
feed as many as last year. but there
will be decidedly fewer fed in the Pa
cific northwest.
Action Of the potato market, 1t was
said. has followed closely the gener-
ally strong underlying conditions and
prices have continued from two to
three times as high as year ago.
Price trends of fruit and vege-
tables generally have been down re-
Gently but recovery is expected when
fall crops are in storage and can be
moved out gradually.
