OLD •NEWS" PRESS REPAIRED AND INSTALLED The Amherst A. C. football team was victorious Sunday afternoon at Brandt's park against the strong Lorain Strollers, in the first profeaalonal game of the local season. The pley was one-sided at almost every minute. The only reason for the Strollers' score waa the removal of some of the regular men from the Amherat lineup. Some flna teamwork waa displayed by the locals. When the backflold men would get the ball, the line would plow Its way through the defense like a steam roller, and on defense, the Amherst line stood Arm. The visitors were fast In every department, but their line waa weak and was unable to make holes for the backfleld men. The whole Amherat backfleld, Including Baker aa fullback, Ueinhardt and Henes at the halves and "Chippy" Bruce at quarter, were able to make gains at every attempt. Bruce selected his plays exceedingly well. Flrat Points Made tarly. Amherst's first touchdown was was made early In the game, the teams playing only about five minutes when the ball was given to Ernst Rein* hardt and he ran the field for a 40 yard run. The goal waa not kicked. Kicking was the one weak point of the Amherst men. Not one goal was kicked after touchdowns. The next touchdown wns made in the second quarter, mostly by line plunging until they were at the foot of the goal posts. Reinhardt again was the one to put the ball over. Substitutes Put In. Coach Kreeger, seeing that the team had an easy job, placed several substitutes ln place of the regular men. Thla, however, did not work well and before the quarter was over the Strollers had made a touchdown and successfully kicked goal, making their total 7. After the quarter waa over the suns were taken out and the team again went Into the game with its winning lineup and Lorain was unabel to score thereafter. In the early part of the last quarter, Bruce made Amherst's last touchdown on a gain of 10 yarda. Stroller* Oood at Forwards. The Strollers were good at making gains on forward passes and that waa about tho only way they could gain the way the Amherat line held. Gates, playing guard and center positions for Amherst, Intercepted two of the Strollers' passes in a peculiar manner. On one occasion the Lorain quarter passed the ball and Oates Jumped about two feet ln the air and caught the ball, which probably was the prime cause of one of Amherst's touchdowns. He also intercepted another which enabled Amherat to gain considerably. Field 8llppery. < The field waa slippery, caused by the rain Just before the game, and many good gains were stopped on this account. It generally happened that the team that was on the muddy portion was unable to gain, and In taking a klckoff, very little headway waa made by either team becauae ot the mud. Two of Amherst's men were placed on the casualty list as a result of the game.

DEMOCRATS TO START NEW WEEKLY PAPER IN ELYRIA The Blyria Democratic club at a meeting last Thursday evening appointed a committee consisting of Harry Redington, 8. H. Squire, Harry Hlnkson, Thomas A. Conway and Charlea Huff to make arrangements for the establishing of a democratic paper in Blyria. The newspaper nt the start is expected to be published weekly. The need of a democratic paper for Elyria and Lorain county was decided upon because of there being no newspaper of democratic faith in Lorain county at the present time. The new paper is expected to be started In time for this fall's campaign. back of the goal posts and It was necessary to take two stitches to close the wound. The crowd present Sunday was good, considering the rain before the game. Many persons had no idea there would be a game, thinking the grounds would be too muddy. However, the expenses were more than cleared. Play Next Sunday. There will be another game at Brandt's park next Sunday, Sept. 28, when the A. C. will meet the Urban A. C. of Lorain.

HIGH SCHOOL VIC- TORIOUSJP ELYRIA OUTPLAY OPPONENTS AT EVERY ANGLE—SCORE 6 TO 0—LOCAL LINE A STONE WALL. I'he Amherst High school football team, in Its first game of the season last Saturday afternoon at Brandt's park, won from the second team of the Blyria high school hy a' score of 6 to 0. The wartimes* of the day made playing stow on both sides; however, Amherst was able to score one touchdown. The Blyria team was outplayed ln every angle of the game. The ball was on the visitors' territory throughout. And the lads from the "100 per cent city" were unable to pierce the Amherst line at all, It holding like the proverbial stone wall. Amherst's Hue was made up of almost entirely inexperienced men. hut they showed their merit In Saturday's game and will undoubtedly improve as the season advances. "Uud" Hearn, the Amherst right end. played a fine game at hi* position, receiving several good forward passes and Intercepting some of Blyria's. Bdwards and Frederick also played well in the line. Monger and Belden Star. The playing of Monger nnd "Koh" Belden. backfleld men. was except ion- ally fine. Belden, last year's halfback, now at fullback, was able to get through Blyria's line at almost every attempt, while Monger wns equullv successful. In Monger, the team Is sure of a dependable halfback. He 1* a sophomore and this is his llrst year at football. Amherst Scores. The Amherst team, however, was unable to score but once, probably due to the weather. Also the timekeepers forgot to call time at the end of the first quarter and the tennis played I straight half without resting. The error wan caused when Belden obtained the first and only touchdown, the referee thinking that time between quarters had been taken out. The goal was not kicked after the touchdown, probably because no attempt wis made. Schibley and Bdwards were placing the ball for kicking, and as it touched the ground, an Blyria man from the goal post ran out and touched the ball, thus taking the right of Kick lng away from the locals. No Trlok Playa Used. There were few trick plays used by either team, as they were nearly all broken up. Amherst was unable to place a successful forward pass, nnd Blyria was unable to work uny trick formations. Blyria, however, wns partially successful in its forwurd passes Boys Confident of Winning All. The Amherst boys gained confidence by winning Saturday's game. They have the ambition of winning everv one this season, and have a good chance of doing so. The team plays another game with the Blyria second team at Blyria Saturday, Oct. 26, at the Blyria athletic club, where they hope to beat the "100 percenters" by a worse score. Amherst has not a game for Sept. 27 but will not stop practicing for a big game Oct. 4 is booked with tb,e Huron team at the local park. Reports are coming from the direction ol Huron that they have a strong team but probably the Huronltes haven't heard of the Amherst team's worl; this season. The boys all appreciated the large crowd thut was present nt the gain Saturday and hope they will continu" mid set even larger. Saturday's lineup was as tollowl S.

Roger.-: Substitutions -Amherst, Knerim for contest, which starts with this Issue Of The News-Times, to continue for eight weeks, has already created enough Interest for half a dozen contests. You see, there's $50 cash of- fered as prizes, and the first prize. $36, is well worth going after. Old and young are already Interested, and the ranks are added to dally. Several citizens have already called nt the ollice and submitted original adages, and one. whose name is II li M„ Is certain he'll be able to submit the best, but with the competition of 400 or 500 others be may not have a show. Nobody known who is going to win. Tbe original addled adage will be Judged by several prominent citizens of the town, assuring every one a fair chance. Here's a 8ample. One fellow, whose position bars him from the contest, and whose effort also will not be counted. *ubinltted this one, which he evolved after many hours of pondering: "If a rave then serve but the rod bone." That sure is an addled adage. Could you rear range It in order, UBlng tbe same letters and make it into an old proverb The correct answer Is "None but the brnve deserve the fair." Now Isn't II easy when you know the answer? Now to win the contest nntl the first prize, which is |25 ln gold, it ts necessary to solve the eight addled adages In The News-Times, and then submit an original adage on the order of the one above given. This Isn't much of a task. The best way to go about it Is to clip each puzzle-picture, starting with this issue, and by glancing over a list of old proverbs we are going to publish next week, pick out the one* that you think you could rearrange to make sense out of It. You must, also be a subscriber to this paper, either new or a renewal. But the $i.!i<) that costs you is returned many times over during the year in the weekly visits of what everyone says Is the best newspaper Amherst ever had. Subscribe at once. though, and get un official contest receipt. <\nd you'll he sure your answer will be counted. Error in Last Issue. In last week's News-Times, in publishing the list of prizes, it was stated that the first prize would be fifty dollars. This, however, was a typographical error. The first prize is $26 ln gold, second $10. third $f>, fourth $3. and fifth $2. Sixth to tenth prizes are $1 each. Don't you think they're worth winning? Best Time to Start Is Now. The best way to get started Is to come to the office at once and either subscribe for the paper as a new sub seriber or renew your old subscription. This entitled you to submit one set of answers und one original adage. If you wish to send in more than one set and original adages, you must subscribe for more years. Two years entitles you to two sets and so on. The contest Is one of the best ever put on by a newspaper and Is certain to create much Interest. The Addled Adage contest Is popti lar among everyone.

HIGH SCHOOL VIC- TORIOUSJP ELYRIA OUTPLAY OPPONENTS AT EVERY ANGLE—SCORE 6 TO 0—LOCAL LINE A STONE WALL. I'he Amherst High school football team, in Its first game of the season last Saturday afternoon at Brandt's park, won from the second team of the Blyria high school hy a' score of 6 to 0. The wartimes* of the day made playing stow on both sides; however, Amherst was able to score one touchdown. The Blyria team was outplayed ln every angle of the game. The ball was on the visitors' territory throughout. And the lads from the "100 per cent city" were unable to pierce the Amherst line at all, It holding like the proverbial stone wall. Amherst's Hue was made up of almost entirely inexperienced men. hut they showed their merit In Saturday's game and will undoubtedly improve as the season advances. "Uud" Hearn, the Amherst right end. played a fine game at hi* position, receiving several good forward passes and Intercepting some of Blyria's. Bdwards and Frederick also played well in the line. Monger and Belden Star. The playing of Monger nnd "Koh" Belden. backfleld men. was except ion- ally fine. Belden, last year's halfback, now at fullback, was able to get through Blyria's line at almost every attempt, while Monger wns equullv successful. In Monger, the team Is sure of a dependable halfback. He 1* a sophomore and this is his llrst year at football. Amherst Scores. The Amherst team, however, was unable to score but once, probably due to the weather. Also the timekeepers forgot to call time at the end of the first quarter and the tennis played I straight half without resting. The error wan caused when Belden obtained the first and only touchdown, the referee thinking that time between quarters had been taken out. The goal was not kicked after the touchdown, probably because no attempt wis made. Schibley and Bdwards were placing the ball for kicking, and as it touched the ground, an Blyria man from the goal post ran out and touched the ball, thus taking the right of Kick lng away from the locals. No Trlok Playa Used. There were few trick plays used by either team, as they were nearly all broken up. Amherst was unable to place a successful forward pass, nnd Blyria was unable to work uny trick formations. Blyria, however, wns partially successful in its forwurd passes Boys Confident of Winning All. The Amherst boys gained confidence by winning Saturday's game. They have the ambition of winning everv one this season, and have a good chance of doing so. The team plays another game with the Blyria second team at Blyria Saturday, Oct. 26, at the Blyria athletic club, where they hope to beat the "100 percenters" by a worse score. Amherst has not a game for Sept. 27 but will not stop practicing for a big game Oct. 4 is booked with tb,e Huron team at the local park. Reports are coming from the direction ol Huron that they have a strong team but probably the Huronltes haven't heard of the Amherst team's worl; this season. The boys all appreciated the large crowd thut was present nt the gain Saturday and hope they will continu" mid set even larger. Saturday's lineup was as tollowl S.

You see, there's $50 cash of- fered as prizes, and the first prize. $36, is well worth going after. Old and young are already Interested, and the ranks are added to dally. Several citizens have already called nt the ollice and submitted original adages, and one. whose name is II li M„ Is certain he'll be able to submit the best, but with the competition of 400 or 500 others be may not have a show. Nobody known who is going to win. Tbe original addled adage will be Judged by several prominent citizens of the town, assuring every one a fair chance. Here's a 8ample. One fellow, whose position bars him from the contest, and whose effort also will not be counted. *ubinltted this one, which he evolved after many hours of pondering: "If a rave then serve but the rod bone." That sure is an addled adage. Could you rear range It in order, UBlng tbe same letters and make it into an old proverb The correct answer Is "None but the brnve deserve the fair." Now Isn't II easy when you know the answer? Now to win the contest nntl the first prize, which is |25 ln gold, it ts necessary to solve the eight addled adages In The News-Times, and then submit an original adage on the order of the one above given. This Isn't much of a task.
