' All of Carbondale'a foot ball games
Seemed to be played under the hardest
kind of luck. This was the way Satur
day, when the high school team played
the Wllkes-Barre high school and It
waa owing to this that the visitors won
the game.
Ths day was sot very promising and
kept many people who otherwise wouia
have attended from being present. The
Wllkes-Barre team came up on the
3 o'clock train, which stop:! at the
grounds. ' The hearts of the Carbondale
contingent fell somewhat when they
say the big, heavy men who alighted.
They were also discouraged by the
absence of several men. who did not
turn up. However, their places were
filled from the crowd present and the
game commenced. Carbondale took the
ball and kicked It well Into the enemy's
territory. After a short run the man
was downed. Then Wllkes-Barre
sailed Into our line and pushed the ball
back toward our line. They pushed
the center hard and made long gains.
But when the ball began to get dan.-
Serously near the line, Carbondale
raced up and secured the ball on
towns. It was their turn now and they
took advantage of it. Abbott went
kround the right- end for a good gain
and McDonald followed around left end.
Murrin plunged Into the line and when
the men got up the ball was five yards
nearer the enemy's line. Again and
again they struck the line and the ball
was slowly pushed up the field. At last
Wllkes-Barre secured the ball on a
fumble. Their offensive work was
good and they pushed the ball to within
eight yards of our line. Here they were
unable to gain their Ave yards and
the ball went to Carbondale. Twice
Murrin failed to make gains through
the center and a run around the end re
sulted In a loss. Then Murrin. punted
the ball and our goal was again safe.
Fiercely waged the battle; first one
and then the other secured the ball,
t and, after a few mad rushes lost. It.
When time was called the ball was near
the center of the field and the score 0-0.
Wllkes-Barre kicked off the second
' half. Quickly the men lined up and
the battle was once more on. Both
teams were freshened by the short
breathing spell and went Into the game
with a rush. Carbondale seemed to
have the advantage. Then occurred
: the most magnificent run of the game.
The signal was given for 11. Horken
berry to go around left end. He tucked
the ball under his arm and started off.
Aided by good Interference he skirted
the end and then with nearly a clear
field went thundering down toward
' Wllkes-Barre's goal. All attempts to
stop him proved fruttlecs and after a
run of sixty yards the fcall was touched
down. Murrin failed to kick the goal.
Again Wllkes-Barre kicked off and
soon secured the ball on downs. They
seemed desperate at the scoring of Car
' bondale and went Into the game with
an energy and vim that seemed won
derful. But - Carbondale was plucky
and met them man for man. It was
' without avail, ' however, for the su
perior weight of the visitors now began
to tell. Slowly, although they fought
fiercely every' Inch,-they were pushed
, back and Wllkes-Barre made a touch
down. A ' goal 'Was kicked, this mak
ing the 6-4 In Wllkes-Barre's favor.
. This was all that was made by either
side.
Carbondale was greatly outweighed
and the green men she had In the line
. made a big difference. All played a
good game, Morgan, on right end tack
ling hard. Hockenberry also tackled
well, while Murrln's line bucking was
excellent '

TO our
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat.
rons that they w ll this i year ' hold to their usual custom
of milling SfRlCTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
Is fully cured, new wheat Is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers aro
of the opinion that It is already cured, arid in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will tako
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
