Wynne Drilling Blue Hard on Aerial Attack Creighton F r o s h Learning Dakota Plays to Give Varsi ty Experience in Break ing Up Formations. By “WAG.” OACH CHET W YNNE ot Creighton is los ing sleep these nights figuring out ways ami means ot trim ming the South Dakota State college at Brookings next Saturday. The fact that S t a te College has never failed to win the Hobo day game with in the past six years has caused Wynne to grow a flock of gray hairs on his dome. The game Saturday between the Blue and the Jackrabblts Is sched uled as a Hobo day contest, therefnro the worry on the part of the Creigh ton coach. Creighton has played three games, won the first and lost the last two, and still the Blue has scored more points than their opponents. Bach time Creighton has taken the flel d the gridiron has been muddy and slippery. Just what the squad can do on a dry field Is not known, but It’s a cinch that If the Blue can hold both the Kansas university and Aggies to 6 to 0 games on a slippery field, on a dry grid .Creighton would stand a good chance of winning. Little Is known of South Dakota state. Last year they held Creigh ton to a tie score, but graduation hit the Jackrahbits a heavy blow. Just what Coach Jack West has in store for Creighton this season will be dis covered next Saturday. Freshman Coach McGann of Creighton returned to the university yesterday with hip pockets bulging out with data on South Dakota plays. He scouted the Jackrahbits game last week and gathered data to tench to his freshmen squad so that they might give the varsity a little expe rience on South Dakota formations and the like. Coach Wynne will scrimmage his varsity this afternoon. Blocking, catching and flipping of the oval will be on the program. It Is Wynne's plan to give the Blue plenty training 1 tbLIE’S FRIENDS ,_*■» **“»p»>°» SO X SEZ TO HER. 1 SEZ ; " X SIMPLY CANT \ GET ALONG ON THE WAGES I'M GITTIN'., / MRS COLONY, AN’ IF YEZ ( DQN’T RAISE ME PAY I'LL ' HAFTA GIT ME ANOTHER PLACE WHERE I'LL- KIAVE.

Fltzgibbons hurled the leather through the air at Manhattan last Saturday, but It was very evident that Fitz didn't pass very accurately. Several tlfnes he flipped the ball with no one on the other end to complete the puss. Once his pass traveled far over Mahoney's head. Had this piuss been completed Creighton would have had a first down and goal only six yards away, but as it happened the pass was loo strong. Mahoney Is good on catching passes, but on a muddy field it Is hard to navigate. Jack Dempsey Going Hunting Iios Angeles, Oct.

"Par on evity puff— it’s the best cigarette I ever smoked!” « I_I Burgess Bedtime Stories By THORNTON W. BURGESS. For everythin*? there's aome **xcuet; A fallen fence post has Its use. — Mrs. Dob White. The Hollow Fence Poet. As the afternoon grew later and later Mrs. Bob White worried more and more. By this time site knew that the wounded young Bob White hid den in a clump of weeds on theOreen Meadows would not be able to get to the dear Old Briar Pat6h, which was the safest place she could think of. If he remained where he was through the night he might not be found. On the other hand, he might be found. His mother had a feeling that he would be found. Keen noses would be almost certain to come searching over that part of the Green Meadows. She didn't doubt In the least that Reddy Fox had heard the bang, bang of the terrible gun, which had wound ed that young Bob White. She knew1 that Reddy knew that often little wounded folk were to be found after the passing of a hunter. The young Bob White was feeling better and was able to move about a little, but he wasn’t able to fly, nor was he able to run far. He was still | a little wabbly on nls feet and still j felt very, very miserable. It could i hardly have been otherwise. So Mrs Bob White grew raord and I more anxious. She left him to look ! around for a better hiding place. "I, must find one," she kept saying over and over to herself. “I must find pne.” So she looked this way, she looked that way, and she looked every way. Twice she passed an old fence post which lay half hidden In the grass. It was one which had fallen and been replaced by a new one. Neither time did she give it particular attention. But the third time she came along that way she noticed that It was open at one end. Mrs. Bob White's eye brightened and she hurried over to that end. When she reached It her eyes bright ened still more. That old fence poet was hollow. Yes, sir, It was hollow for more than half its length. It wasn't a very big hallow, but It waa big enough for her to get Into, and that meant that, of course, it was big enough for that young Bob White to get Into. It would be just the place for him to spend the night. Yes, sir, It would be Just the place for hire to spend the night- Reddy Fox couldn’t possibly get Into It. It was too small for even Jimmy Skunk to git into. Mrs. Bob hurried back to the The acute pain of RHEUMATISM will be relieved by this treatment. Apply Sloan's gently without rub bing.

"I don't know, but I can try,” re plied the young Bob White. “But what’s the use? I can't possibly get to the dear Old Briar-patch.” '■I've found another hiding place, which for tonight /fill be just as good as the dear Old Briar-patch,” said his mother. "We'll go very slowly.” So together they started out. It "Do you think you can travel a lit tle?” she asked anxiously wasn’t very far to that old fence post, hut to that * ounded young Bob White it seemed like a terrible distance. He would go a few steps and then he would have to rest. All the time his mother kept the sharpest ^vatch for dangers. But no danget appeared, and so Just as the Black Shadows came creeping out from the Purple Hills across the Green Meadows they reached the hollow old fence post. (Copyright. 1923.)
