ALLIANCE WINS
OPENING GAME
OF THE SEASON
TRIMS MIXATAKK TO THE TUNL
OF 8 TO 2. I
Only a Fair Crowd Present, But
Plenty of F.nthuMinm Play
Sunday at Bridgeport.
Alliance had little trouble in winning
from Minatare, 8 to 2, in the opening
game of the season at the fair ground.)
Sunday. Garvin started the irame for
Alliance, ami pitched and good brand!
ol oall, lor his first start, although hi
was hit hard at times, tightened u,i
in pinches and only allowed one run in
the six innings that he worked. Ken
ning was in rnidsea.;on form, being put
in the box in the seventh, striking out
five men in the three inning he was
on the mound and allowing two hits
um one score.
Alliance ran wild on bases having
a credit for nix stolen bases, and scored
iit every opportunity offered. Fielding
tin both side. was ragged, Minataie
having four errors and Alliance three.
Hitting honor for the game went to
Griffis with three hits, and as many
scores out of five times at bat.
Only a fair crowd attended the game
the unfavorable weather evidently
keeping a numlter away. A light
tdiower fell during a part of the game,
but not enough to hamper the players.
The next game will be with Bridge
port at Bridgeport next Sunday. An
other game will be played on the 30th,
or Decoration day. This will be with
Hemingfprd at Hemingford.

Berea Tops List
of League Teams
In County Ball
Berea defeated Snake Creek 21 to 7,
in the feature contest of the countv
league, Sunday. The game was at
iteiea. ihis puts Berea definitely at
the top of the list, having won four
games, and lost none. Snake Creek,
the latest team to fall before the
Berea machine, and until this game
tied for first, is now in second place,
naving iosi one game and won tnree.
Fleasant Hill failed to climb from
the cellar position, losing to the Red
Sox, 12 to G. Pleasant Hill has as
yet failed to win a game, although
they have usually put up a good bat
tle. Lawn furnished the surprise of
the iay hy losing to Marple 9 to 3,
This was the best game of the day,
i-awn was picked to win and was
given a good chance to place high in
the league race. Ash Grove took Fair
view into camp, 23 to 10.
Clayton of the Berea team turned in
a rather remarkable performancewhen
he hit six times in as many times at
bat. This gives him a batting average
of 1000 for the game. About 230 peo
ple witnessed this game. Good crowds
attended all the games, the Berea-
Snake Creek battle, however, attract
ing the most attention.
The standings now are:

Still Talk of
Matching Dempsey
With Jess Willard
The old talk of matching Jack
Dempsey with Jess Willard, out of the
game for three years, sixty pounds
overweight, over forty years of age,
and never a great fighter, to buttle
With Jack, who is in his prime, in
training, and while not what might be
described a. a fighting champion, he
has at least had enough battles to be
somewhat in training. Wiliiard might
last to the second round, but this is
doubtful. Probably any first class
heavy of the present day could wallop
the elephantine Willard in live rounds.
The next move now should be to match
James J. Corbett, Jim Jeffries, or pos
sibly Al Wolgast against the champ.
Willard, Gibbons, Greb, Carpentier,
Brennan, any of the present crop of
heavies have been touted as contenders
by" the champ, except one real con
tender, the negro Harry Wills. Wills
could at least make Dempsey step. It
is now thought that Wills and Demp
sey may fight in Montreal, July 1, 1922
but after all the talk of signing con
tracts, posting forfeits, obtaining ver
bal agreements it is unlikely mat
Dempsey will meet Wills by the sum
mer of 1923, if at all.
Box Butte Spuds

AlVlvrl'l IV. 1. liunuiu, viiaw Hum
of the horticulture department in the
University of Nebraska Agricultural
college at Lincoln, who has just re
turned from an extensive tour of tho
potato growing districts of Texas, is
elated over the excellent showing made

Nebraska potatoes that will mean
thousands ol dollars to me totaio
growers of western Nebraska," said
Professor Howard. "In conclusive ex
periments curried on by the horticul
tural department in the southern
states it has been proven that dry land
certified seed potatoes from western
Nebraska were equal or superior to
those from other states."
"The potato dealers and growers
greatly appreciate the interest shown
by Nc'braskans in following up their
sides with such investigations as Pro
fessor Howard has just made. This
desire on the part of the buyers for
good service, coupled with the advan
tage that Nebraska has in the big item
of less transportation charge is an
other encouraging consideration in the
outlook for the industry.
In the irrigated district rear
Brownsville and San Benito along the
Kio Grande, Professor Howard found
the potato plants about a foot in
height and those from Nebraska certi
fied seed remarkably free from dis
cuses, while those from miscellaneous
.-eed stock were already affected to the
extent of lit to Zo per cent oi me jiem.
Some fields also showed only two
thirds of a stand due to poor seed.
Last vear on the seventy-five cars
of certified seed shipped to Texas and
Louisiana, the growers of w estern Ne
braska received $1.00 more per hundred-weight
than the same potatoes
would have netted as table stock.

President Harding
Makes Appeal For
the Flood Suffers
The chairman of the Red Cross
chapter for this county has just re
ceived an urgent appeal from Chair
man John Barton Payne of the Ameri
can Kel Cross, supplemented by a
special letter from President Harding
for a half million dollars to assist the
destitute men, women and children
stricken by the floods in the Mississip
pi valley.
Thirty-one thousand homeless are
being fed by the Red Cross in the
state of Mississippi alone and the first
needs in Illinois, Arkansas, Mississip
pi and Louisiana have already been
met by an appropriation of approxi
mately $100,000 by the national Red
Cross organization, but it will require
the additional sum to continue the care
for the health and comfort of the
stricken people in these struggling
communities.
Our local Red Cross chapter is re
quested to secure generous aid im
mediately from our people in behalf of
these families without shelter, food
or proper clothing.
The fact that President Harding and
Judge Payne of the American Red
Cross have united in this urgent ap
peal is sufficient indication that the
need is acute and that the co-operation
of the American citizenship every
where is required to answer that need.
We all remember when the great
Tood disaster in Pueblo, Col., over
whelmed Arkansas valley with death
and wreckage, how the American Red
Cross by its appeal to the American
people got response of over half a mil
lion dollars for re-establishing fami
lies. The present flood covers a much
wider expanse of territory in the very
heart of the busiest and richest indus
trial and agricutural districts of the
country.
No one can tell when a disaster,
cyclone, great fire, cloudburst or flood?
will strike any community and funds
are maintained by the National Red
Cross for just this kind of community
insurance, but there have been 70 dis
asters cared for by the national Red
Cross in the past year and a half, end
ing June 30, last and funds must be
secured on a wider scale to meet the
urgent requirments. The local chap
ters and branches in the counties ef
fected by the flood have already con
tributed liberally and to the extent of
their resources. This contribution is
meeting the first needs, but naturally
is utterly inadequate in the face of
such a great calamity. Tne ieopic
of this county may be expected to
quickly respond to this call wiih warm
hearted generosity and with entire
confidence that their money will be
applied most effectively, under the aus
pices of the Red Cross for the purpose'
for which it is intended. Contribution;
may be sent to the office of the loca'
Red Cross chapter which will in turn
forward it to the national organization.

Potash Plants to
Be Taxed on a
Valuation of $2,000
The pota.-h plants of southern Sheri
dan county, located at Antioch, Hof
fland and Lakeside, will be taxed on
a valuation of $2,000 each, according
to the decision of County Assessor
George S. Peters who met with rep
lesentatives of the different plants in
Antioch for a conference.
These plants, which were all erected
in the year of 1918 at an average cost
of from $500,000 to $1,000,000, are
Idle and there is very little prospect
of their re-opening. The cottages
around the plants, of which there are
a large number, built for the work
men are to be assesed at the going
value of other buildings in the towns
mentioned, as will the lands also.
Representatives of the potash com
panies who aatended the conference
were: Nebraska plant Henry E. Mil
ler and J. M. Litteras; Alliance plant
George Deitlein; Western, American
and Union Dlants Charles Vastine:

Your satisfaction with a car depends upon
your satisfaction with its performance,
appearance, economy, comfort and price.
These are the vital points. And you must
get satisfaction in each one if you are to
be satisfied with your car as a whole.
Consider the LlGHT-SlX from this angle.
It is essentially the same car as it was
when introduced. It was right before it
was offered. And it has made good in the
service or thousands and thou
eandsof owners. It is dependable.
Its L-head motor is powerful,
flexible and freer from vibration
than any car at anywhere near
its price.
Its gracef ullines are enhanced by a
lasting finish. Cowl parking lights
and the cowl ventilator not only
add to its good look but are nec
essary for complete satisfaction.
TViiJ proof tfanftmiMion lock

The LlGHT-SlX stands up in service with
a minimum of repair expense. This, with
low fuel consumption, means satisfactory
economy.
We never heard of a LlGHT-SlX that was
not comfortable to ride in.
And the price, $1045 t. o.b. factory, is out
of proportion to its value. This price
includes the thief-proof transmission lock
which reduces the rate of theft insurance '.
to the owner 15 to 20 per
cent; large plate glass window
in one-piece rear curtain, inside
and outside door handles and
other refinements.
And you get the priceless in-gredient-
prestige and high
standing of the maker who
for 70 years has been building
quality vehicles and selling
them at fair prices.
