Troy. By James E. Armstrong Everyone knows the story of how the ancient Greeks, supposedly beaten by the Trojans, persuaded them to allow a huge wooden horse to be wheeled into Troy, and then from inside of this horse sprung the conecaled Greek warriors and massacred the stricken Trojans. That’s old stuff but it’s always good. Knute Rockne this season, supposedly flat on his back with the “welcome” sign up for all his old rivals, wheeled a wooden horse into the midst of the country’s football citadel. Anri now from out its hollow shadows comes warrior after warrior to leap upon the stricken lines of backfields and unsuspecting adversaries. Baylor and Lombard have been wiped out and the issuing army of stars is advancing upon the hastily constructed bulwark of the Army, Minnesota, Georgia Tech. Penn State, Carnegie Tech. Northwestern and Nebraska. Here’s a little information as to how the sensational achievements of the new Notre Dame squad have teen accomplished. The half-backs will do for an example. O'Boye is as good as Hearden; Prelli is as good as O’Boyle; Flannagan is as good as Prelli; Dahman is as good as Flannagan; Roach is as good as Dahman; Cody is as good as Roach. Those are not all of Rockne’s half-backs but the illustration serves its purpose. The fight for positions on the 1925 team got off to an even start. Not a veteran, in the ordinary sense of the word, remained from last year. Every berth was open. And every berth drew a flock of candidates. Men who last year must have been buried in the shadow of an inferiority com’i lex are now running riot, and new men, inspired by hope that last year would probably have been in vain, are giving them unprecedented competition for the job. Rockne has impressed upon them the fundamentals of the game. He has taught all alike. The phenomenal work of the team in the two games ,to date can safely be att ribut* ed to the battle for positions. There was little trickery in the plays. Straight football, with a very few passes, was used against both Baylor and Lombard. But the first touchdown was like the red flag to the bull. What one man did. his teammates were bound to do. And the scores of the two games. 41-0. and 69-0, indicate that the efforts were fairly satisfactory. If this rivalry keeps up. and there is no reason to believe that even Rockne has settled on a definite team yet, Notre Dame will enter its crucial games, beginning with the Army on the 17th. playing what can truthfully be said “over its head.” Beloit, after Baylor and Lombard, is expected to furnish no unsurmountable difficulties. But after that comes the crisis. Whether the Wooden Horse will bring about the entire fall of the football Troy is a problem. Many of its towers are strong, and many men. even in the camp of Rockne, think that some of them will still stand when the Fiege is over.

Walkerton Girl Makes Honor English Class Bloomington, Ind., Oct. 7., — Regina Denaut, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. M. S. Denaut, of Walkerton, is one of 10 freshmen at Indiana University who made the honor section in freshman composition in a preliminary examination given to students entering the University last month. Bloomington, with five students for the second successive year, leads all other towns in the state in the number of students selected for the advanced sections of English composition. Indianapolis. Fort Wayne. Salem and St. Mary's are credited with two students each. No other, town or preparatory school is credited with more than one student. and the majority come from the smaller towns of the state. The freshmen girls in the advanced section outnumber the boy s more than 2 to 1. Thirty-six girls and 14 boys compose the class. In previous years the numbers have been approximately even. Sell Place Land The Walkerton Independent this issue carries a notice of sale of thirty-eight acres of farm land belonging to Ira W. Place, former trustee of Lincoln township, who disappeared June 23 last shortly before a shortage was discovered In his records, to be sold at public sale by County Auditor Clarence Sedgwick to satisfy a note held by the state school fund. Place, and his wife, who died several years ago. executed the note in 1915. The loan was secured by a first mortgage on the property and amounts to about $1 500. The mortgaged proper y is a different piece of property from that on which a mortgage is held by two Walkerton men. who were given judgment in circuit court last month for forecloseure to satisfy notes aggregating about $9,000.

Radio fans should I tune in for play-by-play returns. PROFITABLE FARM YEAR HELPS SUSTAIN PROSPERITY Cotton and Wheat Crops Are General Index Os Conditions. Agriculture has been fairly profitable this year ami the improved purchasing power of farmers will do inueh to uphold general economic well-being through the winter, the United States Department of Agriculture declares tn its October report on the agricultural situation. The department ponts out, however, that while conservative judgment of the recovery of agriculture is warranted, farm prosperity can be as easily over-rated as depression. “It is a splendid harvest,” the ! department says. ‘ Not bumper yields but production well adjusted to reasonable needs. The two great money crops, cotton and wheat, are now along w ere some idea can be gained of their value. Cotton ap- | patently stands to bring its pro- | ducers an income of approximately i §1,5 00.000,000. which is about like I last year, and wheat producers apj patently stand to receive about j $1,000,000,000, which is also near I or slightly below last year. “These two leading crops probably index the general crop income. I Agricultural*income will not be ' greatly in excess of last year, but : the point is that this is the second fairly profitable year. The season , will go a long way to level tip reI gional conditions. The Corn Belt along with the dairy and diversified East have been slow to feel the , stimulating current of revival, but I now the rising prices of hogs and cattle, together with a reasonably ! good corn crop mean some profit in the corn belt. The slowly strengthening prices for lairy products plus I higher potatoes and minor cash 1 crops promise somewhat better in- ! come for the East. The whole agrii cultural map thus slowly emerges ■ from economic shadow.’’ Oliver Screen A whole flock of new stars will be i seen in South Bend next week when “The Lost World,” First National's ! picturization of Sir Conan Doyle's : story of the same name comes to j the Oliver theatre. ■ Amon? these new film satellites ' are Messrs. Brontosaurus. Triceraj tops, Megalbsaurus. Allosaurus, [ Trachadon and Diplodocus. For the I benefit of those who might not r?- ' cognize these names, it is annunced ; that they are members of the Dino- ' saur family, prehistoric monsters, who according to scientists, shap'd have passed out of the picture life ten million years ago. Their opponents for stellar honors in the film are Bessie Love. Lloyd Hughes, T^ewis Stone, Wallace Beery and several other notable screen personalities, who enact the roles of explorers who find these ; terrifying creatures of long ago in । a land which time forgot

HOLD MASS MEETING FORM CEMETERY ASSN. Public i’u Attend Meeting To He Held In Club Rooms.. Thursday Xight, Oct. 13. The movement to form a Walkerton Cemetery Association, which is being sponsored by the Walkerton Community club, will take on more d ‘finite form next Thursday evening, Oct. 15. when a general mass me“ting will be held in the Community club rooms to discuss the proposition and to proceed with the organization.
