Road Situation
to be Improved
Immediately
State Engineer Cochran Has Given
Orders to Do Everything
Possible Here.
From Monday's Daily
The highway between this city
and Fort Crook and particularly that
part in the Platte bottom just north
of this city, has been for some time
past in the spotlight of rather un
favorable comment and this has .caus
ed much annoyance not 'only to the
local residents but to the state de
partment of public worts who have
had the responsibility of the road as
part of the King of Trails highway.
State Engineer Roy Cochran whi
has been very much interested in the
development of the state highway
system, has taken the steps that will
assure that in a very short time the
highway will be as good a3 possible
tlie completion of the new highway
which will be this fall sometime.
Mr. Cochran has notified the divi
sion and local highway engineers to
spare no efforts or expense in see
ing that the highway is made fit for
travel and kept at that standard for
the future ana the state engineer win
see that this matter Is given prompt
attention, the residents here can be
assured.

HIGH SCH0LL IS TO
PRESENT NEW OPERETTA;
The music and dramatic depart
ments of the city schools are con
ducting try-outs for special assign
ments for the annual high school j
operetta. After the cast has been '
selected, intensive training will be
gin for the presentation of "Lela
wala" or "The Maid of Niagra." a
3 act drama by Charles Wakefield
Cadman. This is one of the very lat
est operettas and is receiving the
greatest enthusiasm and success.
As the name reveals, the story an i
setting is Indian, relating one of the
most beautiful American-Indian le-'
gends, around which the drama is
centered. The costuming and stage
setting is characteristic of the Colon
ial period of 1761. Although in
tensely dramatic as a whole, humor
is developed throughout the oper
etta. pprhans no American comooser is
better known to the American peo-1
Die than is Charles Wakefield Cad-!
man, the writer of "From the Land
of the Sky Blue Water,, and "At
Dawning." Mr. Cadman has studied
the American Indians and has im .
various nations which he uses in
"Lelawala." I
Although the presentation of
"Lelawla" will be the most difficult
yet undertaken by the city schools
the instructors feel justified in rais
ing the standard of material and
class of entertainment whenever pos
sible. Watch for further announcement
through the Journal.

Manley from Greenwood in
Close Contests.
From Monday's Daily
Weather conditions yesterday gave
the first really pleasant Sunday for
a long period of weeks and permitted
the playing of the second round of
the Plattsmouth-Manley-Greenwood
baseball tournament as the result of
which Manley defeated Greenwood
in the opening game 3 to 2 while
Plattsmouth won from Manley 4 to
6 in the last game, both struggles
being hard fought and in which both
teams played good ball.
The games so far are Plattsmouth
won two and lost none and Manley
and Greenwood have won and lost
one each.
The Manley-Plattsmouth game yes
terday and as far as the Manley team
was concerned was simply a case of
the gilt edge work of Tip Rector who
mowed down the Plattsmouth bat
ters at will and had a strike out
record of fifteen and allowed but six
ihit
three of which in the fifth in
gave the victory to Platts-
mng
j mouth.
For the Plattsmouth team Swan-
son, local hurler allowed seven hits
Whjffeti uy Rector when Johnson laid
on one Qf Tip.g slants for a single
and was followed b Swanson who

JANE DUNBAR OPERATED UPON
From Monday's Dally
Letters have been received here by
Mrs. S. H. Shoemaker irom her son.
Claude, at Los Angeles, announcing
the fact that Jane Dunbar, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank H. Dun
bar, former residents here, had enter
ed the hospital at that place and un
dergone an operation for appendi
citis. The case was a very severe one
and the constulation of the physicians
determined the necessity of having
the operation performed In order to
give the patient any relief.
TOILS PAY NEW BRIDGE
Des Moines, la.. Oct. 10. Patrons
of the interstate bridge at Sioux City
are paying the amount of a new
bridge in tolls every five years, a com
mission appointed by Governor Ham
mill to investigate the feasibility of
construction of interstate bridges
acress the Missouri river at Sioux City
and Council Bluffs reported.
Taking into consideration increas
ed traffic since 1923, a new bridge
could be built between Council Bluffs
and Omaha with a similar amount of
money which patrons of the toll
bridge between the two points pay in
tools every two years, the committee
reported.
Chamber of Com
merce Offices to
Open This Week
Secretary Would Like to Have Reji
dents Call and Oifer Their
Suggestions.
From Monday's Daily
It is encouraging indop 1 x to re
ceive a copy of the follow iiig wire:
E. H. Doulaj,
Resident Engineer,
riattsmouth, Nebraska.
"Complaint made regard mainten
ance of Plattsmouth to Omaha road.
Do everything possible to maintain
traffic regardless cf cost."
R. L. COCHRAN,
Department cf Public
Works.
The Chamber of Commerce expectr
to be in its new quarters this week.
We hope evryone with a suggestion,
and idea, or a criticism will call and
let the secretary have the advantage
of them. He is only human, and wiil
make mistakes. Tell him about them.
Let's always lay our cards up on the
table!
We wonder if it would be news to
know that the Chamber of Commerce
has in the past month written over
three hundred letters reaching out
for industries and information that
would be of benefit to Plattsmouth?
The annual meeting of the Nebras
ka Good Roads association will be
held at the Hotel Rome. Omaha, Wed
nesday, October 13th. There will be
good speakers including our Judge
Begley. Water navigation will be dis
cussed by the Hon. A. J. Weaver;
also will hear Roy L. Cochran: and
others of recognized ability. Platis
mouth is invited to attend with n
large delegation.
One of the finest things that has
been a part of my experience here has
been the hearty co-operation of the
Platsmouth .business men in giving
this office names and addresses of
firms and parties whom they feel
could be interested here.
If you haven't noticed it you ought
to walk or drive out and see the
"clean up" L. O. Minor and his men
have made in the city's "dumping
ground." This had slowly filled in
until it was nearly impossible to
drive to the water plant. It would be
fine if those dumping trash here in
the future could be persuaded to hald
it several blocks further east to not
impair the beauty of the river road.
Am sure the county commissioners
would be glad to co-operate in .this.
Any suggestions on the matter?
The city (this community) is
"chock full" of possibilities for
Plattsmouth. Persistently we must
reach out and take advantage of
them. With patience, faith and de
termination Plattsmouth is coming
into its own. A city is no
greater than Its largest men, and no
city can sell itself to the public, un
til it has sold itself "hide and hair"
to its citizens.
W. G. DAVIS,
Secretary.

j Cleveland Alexander came back in ail
its ancient pitching mastery S'irida
to check the Yaukec-s for trie third
time and clinch the first world's
baseball championship that St. Loun
has known in 4 0 years.
Through the haze of tip's crucial
test, the seventh and deciding game
of the 1920 diamond classic, the
YanV.ee defense cracked to yield The
Cardinals their winning margin of!
3 to 2 but it was Alexander the
Great who saved the day with as
dramatic antk exciting a finish as any
championship conflict lias ever wit
nessed. The bases were full, two were out
and only one Yankee run was need
ed to tie the game in the seventh
inning when Alexander came to -the
rescue of the tottering Cardinal
righthander, Jesse Haines, whose
finger 'was split frnm throwing hi.
knuckle ball and whose control was
ebbing fast. It was a situation cal
culated to test the stoutest heart and
the most seasoned skill, with 5 0 thou
sand dollars and a world's champion
ship hanging in the balance, but
Alexander was equal to it.
Facing Tony Lazzari, a rookie al
most young enough to be his son, the
great veteran hitched his trousers
called on the power of a right arm
that has carried him through IB ma
jor league campaigns and struck out
his man to retire the side as the crowd
broke into a frenzied uproar.
Safely past this crisis, the most
dramatic moment of the game. Al
exander easily subdued the Yankees
in the closing two innings, yielding
only a pass to Babe Ruth in the ninth,
as he completed one of the greatest
pitching exploits in world's series
history.
Twice before Alexander stopped
the American league champions, go
ing the full route to gain victories
that pulled the fighting Cardinal.
each time back to even terms. It
was only Saturday that his master
ful box work led the National leag
uers tc- the triumph that forced the
series to the limit. Yet he was
ready again Sunday, as strong and
as effective as ever, to cap the climax
of his heroic role.
Alex and Walter.
Not since the famous right arm
of Walter Johnson pulled the Sen
ators to their first world's cham
pionship in 1924 has there been any
thing so colorful as this finish of Al
exander's' Two years ago, however,
the Big Train came back victorious
ly after being twice defeated, while
this time the stalwart Nebraskan
stepped into the breach with two vic
tories already behind him.
Alexander did not get official
credit for a victory that would hav
put him among the honor roll men
who have won three woild ser.es
gzmes. The verdict goes down on
the books in Haines name, but ihr
glory belongs to Alexander, the 3v-year-old
warrior who was "sold d . vn
the liver," a short time ago as a
Chicago Cub discard.
Errors Aid Cardinals.
Thwarthed as they were by Alex
ander's great stand, it was nev?r
theless a heart-breaking defeat for
the Yankees, who battled despera'e
i to overcome a margin they had
yielded in the fourth inning when
the Cardinals, aided by two errors,
by Koenig and Meusel, scored their
three runs. It was heart-breaking
for Hoyt. young right-hander who
had twirled brilliantly, even when
his support sagged, and it was heart-"
breaking for Babe Ruth whose fourth
home run of the series, again shat
tering all world's championship re
cords, had put the New Yorkers ir
the lead and upset the confidence of
Jesse Haines who had won a game
previously for St. Louis.

An Easier Method

More Simnle Kanipulation of IfHdern
Wireless Set Shows Evolution
in its Development.
Chicago, Oct. 7. From multiplic
ity simplicity and from one tube
to a dozen, is the incongruous situ
ation that has accompanied the de
velopment of the modern radio re
ceiver. The numerous controls thought
necessary in an earlier day have
given way largely to one tuning de
vice, while the elaboration needed
to produce this ease of operation
has been moved to the unseen re
cesses back of the panel. There from
five to eight or more tubes, with their
increasing collection of electrical and
mechanical apparatus, have sprung
up to overshadow greatly the lonely
tube of the recent past.
Formerly it was not unusual to
see the radio owner attempting to
use two hands where a dozen were
needed to adjust the many controls.
Even the crystal set was not thought
complete urless there were at least
six adjustments before listening
could be accomplished. Now in most
cases one hand is given a rest while
the other performs the task of select
