HUNTING PERMITS FREE The News has printed, and on hand, a supply of “Hunting Per mits," in the blank form, and these will be furnished to all local sports men, and farmers, who desire them free of charge. The permits are small, and are printed to conform with Section 15, of the Arkansas Fis) and. frame law, which provides that all persons who hunt must have a written permit from the owner, and that this permit must be on the per son of the party while in the field. The permits are printed on good duality paper, and are for the sea son of 1915-191*1, and will be given away gratis to those desiring them, as long as the supply lasts.

FORT SMITH HIGH WON Th" la l! high school foot ball team wa^ in Fort. Smith Saturday, where th*>y a’ay(*<i the high school team at that place, and Lost by a score* of 27 to 7 The game ris < hiracterizfd by heavy playing by b *th teams, and all breaks of the game went to Fort I Smith. A peculiar feature of the S'.mc was tnat Fort Smith High did n it .suffer a single pe ilty, while the locals were penalized on numerous occasions; one of special mention in Che second quarter, when Refree •Self, of Fort Smith, assessed a pen alty of twenty-five yards against the locals for tripping This placed the ball on the Springdale one yard line, and Fort Smith with four downs t > make the yard, pushed it over on the fourth down for their first score. The locals won the toss and de fended the north g xa.l. Fort Smith kicked, and a thirty five yard run by Taylor, of the locals with .splendid interference, two line bucks for ten more yards, and a fast forward pass to Gillette from Thompson for twen ty-five yards gave Springdale the first touchdown in two minutes and a half of play. Hinson easily kicked goal. The second quarter was all for Springdale uut.il the t went.v-five yard penalty for tripping, when Fort Smith went over for a touchdown, failing to kick goal.. The score at the end of the first half resulted 7 to fl, favoring Springdale. Tiie third quarter was for Fort Smith; with consistent hammering the krais line, and using a short. forward pass, which Hinson was un aide to stop on a co in! of an injured ankle, finally gave them a touchdown but not until afer Gillette received a spectacular pass from Thompson- for a t;twenty yard gain. Port Smith came near scoring in the third quar ter but a. fumble as the man was carrying the bell, which was recover ed by Gillnte, of the locals, who carried i-r thirty yards before being downed, prevented the touchdown. Af ter the seeming inability of the port Smith-inns to solve the fast playing of tiu ]<*--its rougher t u tics were re -1, to, ,ui-w vt-i.s indulged in by a Port Smith, player, Thl» seemingly played havoc with the Spring-dale team, and added with in numerable penalties by the refree placed them at a disadvantage, and the fourth quarter sa.w Pott Smith scoring almost at vvi-.ll.

Tbomp-o i played his usual good game at, quarter; llirson at half, though suifferii g from an injured ankle did exceTert kicking; his kick offs being far better them Port Smith and Gillette, ;u end, played the best, game of this season. He was sii fat ly injured in the sec md quarter, re pla;-.- l i.i uie taiid, taken out In the third, and repined in the fourth, on ly to b taken out again .tnucJi against his wishes The local team wag made to suf f r for the reputation Sprintd'1© gained in Fort Smith, from the game here last year; as this was clear by evident frurn the cheers and ri'orhs from the Fort Smith Hif-gh School supporters. Their main cheer being “RetnemtKr last year at Springda’e.” Several of the local term are suf fering from bru’ses an a result of thedr hard playing, but as a whole the teiim j>iaye<l excellent foot ba'l, considering the difficulties under which they labored.
