Screaming Eagles will be in tip-top
shape for their clash with the fast

a spirit Of fight yelling up in the
Eagles. the Maroons will likely en-
counter tough going against the To-

The young squad has been stead
ily improving with each contest. The
team that sprints onto the field to
combat the potent Maroons-likely
district championship be a far
cry from the aggregation that
Brownsville fans saw at the opening
Of the year. The game here is the
only thing that stands between the
Marcons and a district title. and
Valley fans believe the Eagles stand
a good chance Of upsetting the Cap

when Coach Cowboy Ogan's Bull
GOss of this city tie up with Curtis
Beatty's Mission high Eagles.
These two clubs have been knock
ing each others ears down for the
past five winters III what each sea-
son proves to be a real grudge bat
tie. Both of the teams having gone
through the larger portion of their
seasons. the game proves each year
al interesting tussle, for both elev-
q are putting out all they have.
Penny Frisby. crack McAllen half
back, will lead his mates out on the

McAllen has not gained a decision
against the Eagles since 1923. when
the last Valley championship to be

guards and Ross at center.
Good Forwards
Agalns. this array Mentor Beatty
will hurl a neat little forward sec
ton, one that is scheduled to click
in fine fashion against the McAllen
offense. His backfield is not so hot
but that line. especially in close
defensive play, is practically impreg-
nable. Two stalwarts on the Mis-
sion club will be McCord. halfback

Grady walker, an astute ball toter

Now, however, requests for book

although two large steamship COM
panies expect somewhat less traffic
than last year, others anticipate no
decrease and a few, notably the
lines with new. fast vessels, expect
to be booked solidly.

Rate War Denied

Rumors Of a steamship rate war
which would send passage costs to
extremely low levels have been de-
MED emphatically by company Off
Gals. Rates remain practically I'M
changed this year, with the eXcep-
ton of some downward revision in
certain classes of accommodations.
Cabin ships, vessels of medium
size with only first and third class
accommodations, and tourist third
class cabins on the larger liners,
are becoming more and more pop
ular. For instance, while first class
minimum rates to the British Isles
range from $182.50 to $500, round
trip passage is available in tourist
third class cabins for $185 to $2O2.
Living Costs Lower
Living costs practically through
out Europe are reported to be slight
ly less than the average in the
United States Meals and lodging
cost from as little as 81 a day to as
much-and sometimes considerably
more-as one wants to pay. Al
though metropolitan hotel prices are
higher than those in smaller towns,
comfortable boarding and rooming
houses are available at rates of only
about So a day. Small Paris hotels
have rooms at 50, and first class
rooms in the large hotels of Switzer-
land start as low as $3.50.
American motoring organizations
have made it convenient for tourists
to take their own cars with them.
Approximately 500 persons did that
last year. A car can be driven to
the ship pier and there checked like
any article of baggage. A small car
can be transported for $3.50, and the
largest one for $3.50.

their guests numbered over one hun
dred and twenty-five persons and
everyone seemed to have spent a de-

room in the large hall for dancing
and all entered joyfully into the
pleasant pastime. The floor was very
good as was also the music which
was furnished by Prof. Horns or
chestra, of Washington. The dance
commenced at 830the appointed hour.
The pretty and elegant evening gowns
of the girls combined with the more
sombre attire of the men, forming a
striking picture as they kept time with
the music in Southern Maryland s
popular dances. A delightful lunch
con consisting of chicken, ham and
chicken salad sandwiches with icetea
and coffee, was served by the matrons,
Mrs. Sydney E. Mudd, Mrs. L. A.

DR.. A. j. Carrico was floor Manager
A programme of twenty dances and
