DEFEAT EDGAR
CONTINUED from page u

the game was on, the Red Lodge
boys had the situation we'll in
hand before the first half ended
and everything completely under
control in the final quarters.
Edgar took the first kickoff
and Gonzales, shifty halfback, ran
rs yards for a touchdown while
the Miners we're still trying to
catch their breath. The try for
the extra point failed.
Carbon received the next kick
off deep in their own territory
and punted on the second play. An
Edgar tackle broke through to
block the kick, and with Edgar in
possession on the Carbon 20-yard
line, it looked as though the Red
Lodge men were in for a tough
time. But at that point they pulled
in their necks, braced their feet,
and held for four downs.
Starting a march from their
own 35-yard line in the third
quarter, the Miners moved stead
lily to their first score on straight
football, Charley CUISINE carrying
the ball over the line. The extra
point attempt was missed, and the
half ended with the ball in mid
field, the score at call.
Carbon kicked off in the second
half, held Edgar for downs on the
4O-yard line, continued the goal
ward march. Laatikainen went
through the line for the second
touchdown. The third was scored
in the last quarter, also by big
Finn" who seemed able to rip
through the Edgar forward wall
almost at will. An extra point was
gained by a forward pass.
Penalties were few and there
were few fumbles on either side.
Edgar failed to make a first down
in the second half of the game,
the Miners smearing about half of
the plays behind the serimmage
line.
Steele, at tackle for Edgar, and
Gonzales were the best perform
ers for Coach Omdahl.
Carbon players were: Niemi
and Brown, ends; Obert and Ka-
por, tackles; Ed and Aldo March
clio, guards; Zupan, center; Liedes,
quarter; Grusonik and CUISINE,

RAILWAY HEARING

were Lee Dennis and Leonard
Young, with Francis A. Silver,
secretary. Representing the town
of Fromberg were NJ. F. Emmett
and DR.. Benson, and an appear
ance in behalf of the town of
Bridger was made by o. H. P.
Shelley of Red Lodge. The rail-
way company was present with a
large force, N. P. officials from
St. Paul to Helena attending
Thursday.
The railways application called
for discontinuance of trains No.
209 and 30, which are motor cars
operating between Billings and
Bridger. Conditional on the grant
ing of the discontinuance, a re-
quest was made to operate a COM
bination assenger-express- mail
freight truck on the state high
way to Bridger from Billings. All
forms of service now performed
on the rails, it was said, would be
handled with this truck-bus, which
would pull a trailer truck at times
when the amount of freight and
express made it necessary.
AT the hearing it was evident
that the citizens of Bridger UNDER
stood neither their privileges nor
their duty in regard to this mat
ter Of public service, according to
persons present. Having once filed
a protest against the railways ac-
ton, business men of the COM
munity did not feel called upon to
voice their objections or suggest
ions at the hearing which was
conducted at their request, and ex-
pressly for their benefit. What
might have been a several days
discussion was completed in half
a day, on failure of the DIRECTORS
TO fully present their case to the
commission.
Testimony was introduced, how
ever, to show that the railways
plan would constitute little more
than a nuisance service" to the
and county. 1t was
pointed out that the railway did
not propose to offer the door-to-
door delivery service given by
regular trucking companies, and
50 could not compete with estab-
.ished truck lines by simply TAX

N(OltiiluGu ITOLH pdEC -
At a committee meeting held
Monday night in Red Lodge it was
estimated that the whole re-
sources of the county Red Cross
would be inadequate to the ex-
IRENE situation this year, that the
county government might be
obliged to help to the extent OF
$4,000.
Importance of the Red Cross
work in this county is shown by a
report of the work done last year
by local and national organiza-
tions. In Carbon county, 80
families-1,436 people - received
direct aid from the Red Cross, at
a cash cost to the organization of
S5,647.91. The value of donated
supplies, not counting government
stock feed and flour, was $1,827.
Stock feed distributed in the coun-
ty amounted to $50 tons, and 420
barrels Of flour were distributed
up to August Is, this year.
Community chairmen IN the
county are: Mrs. Alex Hatherall
at Washoe, Mrs. Mary Irvine at
B~earcreek, Mrs. w. H. Bunney at
Belfry, Mrs. Frank Royce at
Bridger, Mrs. Blanche Ballard at

team on the field at the Rodeo
grounds.

ing to the highways with the
freight.
1t also was in evidence that the
same freight Classification would
be used on truck transported
freight and baggage as on rail
freight, rather than the straight
pound-for-pound schedule Of the
trucking companies. This CLASH
fication would bring no improve
ment in freight rates, it was said,
instead placing railroad rates on
truck service that would not be as
satisfactory as service by truck
ing companies. Thus the railways
loss of business would be heavier
than it already is. due to the COM
petition of truck lines and another
railroad, offering regular rail
freight service. along the same
line.
The proposed time schedule of
the substitute service was des-
eribed as impractical, particularly
IN regard to passenger and mail
transportation. The rail car leaves
Bridger in the morning, returning
from Billings in the afternoon,
connecting at Silesia with the Red
Lodge branch train for transfer. of
passenger and mail. Under this
schedule, one.day service between
Bridger and the county seat is
given.
The proposed truck-bus would
leave Billings at 7 o'clock each
morning, arriving at Bridger at
9:15 intermediate points are
Laurel, Mason. Silesia, Blum, Ed
gar, Fromberg). 1t would leave
Bridger on the return trip at las
in the afternoon-making it i'm
possible for passengers from
Bridger, Fromberg or Edgar to
catch the daily train to Red Lodge.
Neither could passengers from
Red Lodge make a connection at
Silesia for Bridger.
One day mail service would be
impossible under the new sched-
ule, it was testified. As an ex-
ample, mail shipments of The
News from Red Lodge now reach
Bridger on the same day of ship
ment-Thursday. The proposed
schedule would deliver the paper
to subscribers around the horn"
no earlier than Friday.
1t was mentioned in addition
that the proposed schedule would
parallel the present schedule of
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
railroad, whose trains operate
the same line.
Suggestions were offered for
Improvement of the present rail
service for the mutual benefit of
the railway company and its u.s.
toners. Equipment of the rail
cars for the comfort and conven-
fence of passengers, and a lower
ing of passenger fares would re-
suit in an increased use of the
railway by travellers, was an opin-
ion voiced at the hearing. If the
rail freight service was supple
mented with a local trucking SER
vice that would guarantee station
to-storehouse delivery, with a re-
classification of shipping rates,
the railway could compete success
fully with trucking companies.
In general it was recommended
that the railway endeavor to i'm
prove its service and income on
the rails, instead Of joining the
other truck lines in damaging the
state highways, at the same time
diminishing rather than enhanc-
ing its business.
Evidence given at the hearing
was taken under consideration by
the railroad commission, which is
give a decision on the matter.

Picture a golfer with low gross
score equaling the low net card
and yet gaining only a tie with
two others for second low net.
Such is the lot of Gen. r. H. Al
len, of the Chevy Chase Seniors
Golf Association. General Allen
turned in a low gross of rs for
the July tournament, but he must
suffer for being the best golfer in
the association.
ChildreSS Is Winner
General Allen is a plus golfer,
and three additional strokes we're
tackled on to his score, giving him
a net of 70. Gen. D. C. Shanks
had the same low net. though his
gross score was 81. General
Shanks carries a handicap of IL
strokes.
John w. Childress was the win
ner as the tournament is decided
on low net. Childress crossed 81
and a handicap of six strokes
left him with rs.
E. M. Talcott also tied General
Allen and General Shanks for the
runner-up honors by crossing 79.

SOUTHAMPTON, N. Y, Aug. 2.
Flashing the best tennis he has
shown since he won the LongWood

an auspicious entry into the
uuarter-final round of the Meadow
Clubs annual invitation tennis
tournament this afternoon, when
he conquered Clayton Lee Bur

6-1, 6-1. in the second round.
Lester Stoefen, giant Los Ange-

match with Eddie Jacobs, of Bal
timore, carried over from last
evening with the score tied at a
set apiece, by winning the final
chapter at Ga, earning the right
to meet Clifford Sutter, intercol-
legiate champion, in his next
start. Stoefen had won the first
set at 8-6 yesterday, and JACOBS
the second at 6-3 when they
quit.
Stoefen can thank Jacobs
sportsmanship for his victory.
When they split their two sets
last evening, the Californian was
out on his feet, Jacobs could have
insisted on continuing the match,
and he could have undoubtedly
have won for Stoefen could hardly

have not the least doubt but
that the judges were right.
Eddie was in a lane too far
away from me to see him, so
1 didn't have any idea myself
where he was.
sT wouldn't think of a pro-
test. That would be unfair,
because l was honestly defeated
and because l want to uphold
in every way the fine tradition
of Olympic sport-tO lose with
a smile and sincere cOngratu-
lations to the winner. And I
do congratulate Eddie sincerely.
He is a truly great runner and
a fine friend"
Metcalfe, retiring, courteou!
and a prime favorite among the
American athletes, evinced SINGER
ity, too.
ToIan Glad to Win

dent, was "glad to win"

what sheepish when he was re
minded of the congratulation HI
extended to Metcalfe as they

If we were gifted with the art
of drawing we are sure we would

And we would draw a line

the weight of one weary foot

That is our theme today. We
don't like to be sentimental
about the matter, and have
tried not to be.
But since sports mostly re-
volve around youth and since
the Youths of 1917 have not
been served, except very SLOW

wondering about the passing
glory of the Youths of 1882.

Toughest Foes

By GARRETT WATERS

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-UnleSs the
Detroit Tigers and Cleveland In
dians show signs that they have
cracked under the strain of haV-
ing had to meet the Yanks and
AS during the past eight days,
the Griffs can be said to face an
unusually tough schedule for the
remainder of this Western trip,
what with four contests ahead
with each of these clubs.
Manager Johnson's men meet
up with the Tigers first, begin
ming tomorrow. Then they close
their journeying with a quartet
of engagements against the In,
dians, beginning next Sunday.
Just Able to Held Own
So far this season the Griffs
have barely been able to hold
their own against these clubs. In
II contests with the Tigers, the
Griffs have won five while six
have been put on the right side
of the ledger with the Indians in
II played.
Naturally Manager johnson is
hopeful of gaining several vic.
tories in Detroit and Cleveland
in the idea of returning home
ahead Of these two rivals in the
matter of victories against losses
In the eight games on schedule
his team has the chance of &C
complishing this but an un-
usually tough battle looms.
For example, the Tigers have
given the Griffs plenty of fight
in their last two sets of games.
During June in Detroit. Bucky
Harris youngsters won three out
of four games, while in Washing,
ton last month, three victories
were scored in a series that had
five games on schedule.
Cleveland was just the right
stepping off place for the Griffs
during June, it will be remem
bered, as the Indians dropped
three games out of four. But
not so last month when Manager
Peckinpaugh's team visited Wash.
ington for five contests. The new
league sensations could not do
anything wrong then.
Four games were won by the
Tribe, the Griffs coming to life
in the final of the series, winning
IA to 4.
Johnson Still Hopes
Although the dope points to
pretty tough sailing during the
next eight days, Manager John,
son still hopes that his team will
capture victories enough to pring
it home within shot of the pen.

not the most impossible thing in
