BOLT KILLS BOY
IN GRID GAME

CANTON, Ohio. Oct. I'm a
scrimmage with the scrubs, the
varsity football team of Leham
High School went into a hudde
for the next play yesterday.
An instant later, a lightning
bolt struck in the middle of the
huddle, scattering the players like
ninepins.
Don Cornell was killed instantly.
Jimmy Robinson and Assistant
Coach Wilbur Billings, were in
jured, but the others quickly re-
covered.
The killed boy wore metal face
guard to protect his lips. He was
a trumpet player. Cornell, 18 and
a junior, was co-captain Of the
eleven.
After the bolt struck, uninjured
members of the squad picked up
the dead boy and those who were
unconscious, or writhing on the
ground from shock and rushed
them to Mercy Hospital.

American composers in the an
nouncement by the Columbia
Broadcasting System stating that
six distinguished composers had
been commissioned to write music
specifically for the medium OF
the radio.
Deems Taylor, composer, critic
and commentator, who is now
serving as consultant on music for
CHS. said, I'VE thought at first
of holding a contest, but we finally
decided to commission certain
composers outright. We did this
for two reasons. First, because 1t
is difficult to induce talented and
successful men to take part in a
contest in which they run the risk
of having nothing for their pains,
but experience; second, because we
feel that the regulations and past
achievements of the men we have
selected are a guarantee that we
shall be able to offer the public
six works that we can be proud
of having sponsored"
The composers commissioned
for this task, are: Aaron COPELAND,
Louis Gutenberg. Howard Hanson,
Roy Harris, Walter Piston and
William Grant Still. The purpose
Of the Columbia Composers Com
mission is to encourage writer's of
serious music to utilize the posi-
bilitieS Of the microphone and the
loud speaker.
Commenting on the commission,
Mr.. Taylor said: "A radio network
today reaches the greatest music
audience in history. The micro
phone allows the composer to pro-
duce orchestral effects that would
be impossible in the concert hall.
The audience for American music
has grown tremendously in the
past few years and we feel that
this commission will offer that au-
dience an opportunity to realize
the extent to which radio has made
new instrumental effects and tone
colorS possible.
THE commissioned works may
be in any form, the only restriction
placed upon the composers being
that we have suggested time limits
suitable to broadcaSting. Thus. if
the composer elects to write SYM
phony, a cantata, or an opera, it
is not to exceed 40 minutes in
length; if a suite or concerto, its
maximum length will be AZ min
utes; if the work is in one move
ment, between eight and IA
minutes"
The works commissioned are to
be finished by June /, 1887, and

TEXTILE MEN
TOLD DANGER
FROM JAPS

BOSTON, Oct. 7 0.N.S0.-The
growing danger to American EN-
ployment and business from Jap
anese competition, particularly in
the textile field, was stressed today
by President Frank I. Neild at the
annual meeting of the National
Association of Cotton Manufac'
turers. He said:
fTn the case Of japanese ex-
ports of textiles to this country
we have watched them grow
from almost nothing three or
four years ago to millions Of
yards a month and they are still
growing.
"CAN SEE NO END"
"The Japanese have cOncen-
trated on few items but are
constantly expanding the num-
Der of kinds of fabric to be ex-
ported, and at present we can
see no end to this expansion Of
their exports.
1--WE have protested in Wash
ingtOn with very little result. In
fact we have been told repeatedly
that the total is too small to
bother with.
"The only sound way to head
off this threat to America en-
plOyment and American business
is to establish quotas for all i'm
ports from countries like Japan
with such extremely low wages
and living standards"
LIKENED TO FLOOD
He likened imports to flood,
which start from very small
trickles and grow until tremendous
damage is done"
President Neild told the meet
ing:
at is high time that we had
flood control on imports before
the damage is done rather than
afterward."
The cotton textile industry ranks
as one of the safest of the major
industries of the country, accord
ing to figures compiled by the
national safety council. The acct
dent record of one of the largest
liability insurance companies
shows that of all the losttime acct
dents in mills, only 80 per cent
are due to mechanical exposure,
the remaining 10 per cent being
the result of falls, humping into
objects, ETC., or non-mechanlc
causes.

In Texas the jaguar hunts for deer,
cattle, peccaries, turkeys, fish and
turtles. It seems to prefer the larger
animals, but does not pass by the
smaller ones.
Shortly after sundown the hunter
comes out to dine. Why he finds
1t best to make such q noise about
his hunger Is matter Of opinion.
Is it to frighten the wits out of
victims. who may in their terror give
themselves away? Or is it the con-

Q lion and the place seems filled with
the fearful sound.
When they go out courting the din
Is particularly loud. The battles are
fought among rivals until one Of the
combatants drops from exhaustion or
death.
The female Is nearing her third
birthday when she weds. She Is

cation. When the babies are three
weeks old, they are permitted to fol-

the hunters who were trying to smoke
him out gave up and went away. For
o long time, in fact until almost day
light, Bobby lay there, too used up to
think Of moving. When at last he did
feel suficiently rested he began to
take an interest in this strange place
he was in. He never before had been
so far in these ledges. In fact, he
had only once before been there and
that was long ago.
He first started back the way he had
entered, but the smell Of smoke lin
gered there and he didn't like 1t. So
he returned to seek another way out
and soon found another passage that
twisted and turned and wound about,
but which gradually led upward. The
air grew fresher. and by and by. Bobby
saw q spot Of light far ahead. When
he reached 1t, 1t proved to be an open
ing out onto q little shelf Of rock. 1t
was very like the place where he had
entered to escape the Dog and hunters,
but 1t wasn't that place.
Bobby cautiously poked his head out
for q look around, then hurriedly with
drew 1t. Standing on another shelf
just above and to one side was some
one he hadn't expected to see. He had
q neighbor. It was q neighbor he
hadn't counted on, q neighbor who was
at that minute having o bad fit Of
temper. 1t was Yowler the Bobcat.
Yes, sir, 1t was Yowler himself.
Yowler's home was in those ledges.
He had been out hunting all night,
and not with the best Of success. This
in itself was enough to make him feel
out Of sorts. Returning home, he had
discovered that during his absence
there had been visitors there. There
was the smell Of Dog. And there was
the hated smell Of Man. All this was
bad enough, but there was worse in
store. When he started to enter the
cave which was his home he found
the dreaded smell of smoke In 1t. There
was no smoke itself, but the smell OF
1t was still strong. He remembered
how once. when he was young, hunters
had tried to smoke him out Of an
other ledge where he then lived. He
snarled and spat as he looked about
suspiciously. Had they found this
home Of his and again been trying to
smoke him out?
