Bluffton grid enthusiasts will have
chance to see on the local gridlron
a football ace who until last Saturday
was the nations leading grid scorer,
when Manchester college tackles the
Beavers here this Saturday afternoon.
Don Lieberuin, captain and quarter
back of the Manchester team, was
edged out last week by Tom Harmon,
the great University of Michigan
back, as the highest point-getter in
the country, but he hopes to regain
the lead against Bluffton this week.
Harmon has 73 points, and Lieberum,
in second place, has &c.
Bluffton Highs sportsmanship drew
commendation in report released re-
Gently by the state athletic depart
ment. Over a three-year period,
got the highest possible sportsman
ship rating, "One," in both football
and basketball. Of all the teams
Bluffton plays in this area, Bellefon-
taine was the only other school with
an equally good record. In determin-
ing the rating, actions of the coach,
the faculty, the teams and the spec
tators are considered.
Bluffton colleges Is to Z victory
over Defiance last Saturday gave the
Beavers the edge in keen rivalry that
has extended over II years. Previous
to last Saturdays contest each school
had won seven games, lost seven
games, two tilts ended in tie scores.
Bluffton now has the advantage, eight
to seven, as a result of this falls
win.

Some consolation for Bluffton Highs
showing this fall in is seen in the
fact that the Pirates come from the
smallest school in the Western Buck
eye league. In fact, only one team on
the Dillermen's schedule comes from
smaller school-Pandora.
When Bluffton High lost their sixth
straight game last week they topped
the record of 1897 when five straight
defeats were suffered. Back in 1924
however, Bluffton's football team lost
seven consecutive games.
Basketball practice has been started
already at Bluffton college, and veter.
ans and newcomers who are not or
the football squad, began working out
last week in the gymnasium. Bluff.
tons cage season will not be opened
until about the second week in De.
cember.

The good graces of tickle Dame
Fortune, long overdue so far as
Bluffton Highs luckless football
team is concerned, eluded the Pr
rates again last Thursday night,
and one bad break gave Wapakoneta
a to 0 victory over the Dillermen
in game played at Harmon field.
On the opening kickoff, Halfback
Rickert of the visitors returned the
ball so yards for the lone touchdown
of the contest.
This break left the stands in
stunned silence, for Rickert had fun
bled the kickoff, then after scooping
up the ball appeared to have been
trapped near one side of the field.
He reversed his course, however, and
picking up hastily formed interfer-
ence travelled unmolested over the
goal.
1t was the only time during the
contest that the Indians threatened,

Celina is continuing to set the

 ed by a direct vote of the people, and was again ratified by the peo- pie in a special election ir July of 1883.
 "'T am a firm believer in the Cincinnati .'lan, because I believe 1t is the best means whereby busi- ness methods may be substituted for political methods in a munic- ipal government.
 "'It must be borne in mind, however, that under any form of government, the personnel elected to the municipal governing body is of the utmost importance. If petty politicians, or even sincere or incompetent business men, are elected to determine the policies of government, the administration cannot rise above the level of those at the helm.
 Proportional representation is, l believe, the fairest method of electing the members of the coun- ell, because it makes nearly every ballot effective, and thereby gives the people tinstead of political machine) the control of their elec- tions. Two proportional represen- tation elections in Wheeling have given the city caliber of council men considerably above the aver age of the former city councils,- and P. R. has definitely eliminat- ed the evils of partisansl,io u,,inh prevailed prior to 1895. may also say that the predictions of the op- ponents of the Cincinanti plan in the 1885 city charter campaign that P. R, would bring about re- ligious, racial and class antagon- ism, and promote intolerance have in no way come true."

 Request Discharge It is expected that as result of the upholding of the demurrers, Judge Cornell will be asked next week to discharge the three defen- dants. However, legal battle on this request is expected.
 Judge Wynne, in upholding the demurrers, held that the birth con. trol statute was unconstitutional. A few days later, Judge Frank P. Me- Evoy, in granting an application for destruction of contraceptive mater ials seized in raid ct the Water- bury Maternal Health Center, ruled that the law was constitutional. An appeal from this decision is being taken to the state supreme court of errors.
 Three manslaughter cases are on the superior court docket. One is that of Katherine D. Rein, charged with smothering her infant child to death shortly after birth. The in- fant's body was found buried in the cellar of Miss Rein's home. Coroner William B. Hennessy, in finding, held her criminally responsible for the death.
 Also charged with manslaughter are Garfield Bostic and Joseph Cat ling, who were arrested for allegedly causing the death of Allen Garter, of Woodlawn terrace. Carter died of injuries suffered in a beating in. flicted on him in the North End sec. tion.
