I6H SCHOOL SECONDS
LOSE DECIDING
j CONTEST '
!S Last night brought the Ogden Junior
Basketball league to a close when a
large crowd of fans watched the
Standard team defeat the High school
seconds. The score was 22 to 11. The
game was played on the Deaf school
3 floor. The game was close from start
$ to finish, each team doing its utmost
: to take the championship in Its direc
; tion. In the first half it was all High
! school, their guards holding the op-
posing forwards in good shnpe. The
f score stood 10 to 4 for High when tho
!, whistle blew for the first period.
In the second halt it was different,
Things began to mix and for a few
minutes it was a mixture of soccer and
I football with all ten men In the center
of tho floor. Finally a Standard
player emerged from the entangle
ment with tho ball and took a long
shot and mado a ringer. From then on
the newspaper five kept "dumping"
them in at regular Intervals and soon
had a lead of eight points. Two of
the High's best men went out early In
the game. Skeen had been eating" too
many "hot dogs" and his wind slipped.
Farnoff was thrown to the floor and
knocked "coocoo" for a few seconds.
They were replaced by Pingree and
Griffin.
The game was played by the guards
of the opposing teams. To name stars
would be difficult, as they were all
going their best. The guards stood out
above the others and in this McBride
and O'Keefe were In the limelight
most of the time. Line-up:

"GIVE I ACRE" TO
1R WORK FUNDS
The following clipping has been sent
the Standard by a business man of
Ogden:
"Give an acre!" That is a new slo
gan for these days of slogans. It is to
be the inspiration of a state wide
movement to enlist farmers and their
families in growing special acres of
crops and donating the salo proceeds
to the Red Cross, the army "Y." the
army K. C. or to other similar war
service.
This movoment had its inception
among the graduates of tho two-year
agricultural course at Iowa State Col
lege at their reunion dinner at tho
time of the recent farm and homo
week at Amos, Iowa, "I grew an acre
of beans last season that yielded eigh-.
teen bushels," said Ron Sweeny, of
Clay county, at this dinner. "I'll do It
again and give all tho proceeds to the
Red Cross." Immediately John Rollly,
of Sioux county, spoko upp, "I'll grow
an acre of potatoes and do tho same
! thing." After that others pledged an
acre of some special crop for tho same
i purpose and tho movement has grown
space.
f "We hope to enlist many hundreds
, of Iowa farmors in this 'give an acre'
; movement," says J. S. Cunningham,
j who has been assigned by tho college
; to promote the war garden work In
Iowa. "Thru this special crop any
, farm household can, by joint effort,
i make a splendid gift to somo Avar fund
and hardly feel the gift. Iowa farmers
might easily make a gift of a million
dollars and more in this way thru their
various local agencies. Wo hope that
hundreds of 'give an acre' pledgets may
be secured in every county,"

WHY VON WEILL
LEFT m HOME
Was Too Closely Pursued by
the Secret Service of
the U.S. .
(Special Correspondence.)
NEW YORK. March 8. A letter
written by Hans Adam von Wedell to
Ambassador von Bernstorff to justify
his action in abandoning tho work of
gathoring passports for fraudulent use,
is shown in facsimilio in the "World's
Work for March. It is an Interesting
document, not only because It reveals
a lot of weak human nature in the
agents of "German efficiency," but
also because it definitely rovoaled Von
Pappn and Albert as principals in the
German plots as early as three months
aftor tho war started:
HOTEL ST. GEORGE, Folix Fiegcr.
Proprietor, Nyack-on-Hudson, Decem
ber 26. 1914. His Excellency tho Im
perial Gorman Ambassador Count Von
Bernstorff, Washington, D. C. Your
Excellency : Allow me most obediently
to put before you the following facts:
Io seems that an attempt has been
made to produce tho impression upon
you that I prematurely abandoned my
post In New York. That is not true.
I. My word was done. At my de
parture 1 loft the service, woll organ
ized and worked out to Its minutest
details, in tho hands of my successor,
Mr. Carl Ruroede, picked out by my
self, and, despite many warnings, still
tarried for several days in New York
in order to give him tho necessary
final directions and in order to hold
lii uuiin. iu uiuuruu cui u 1 o bui u 11 u v..
my hands by tho German officers until
after tho passage of my travelers
through Gibraltar, in which I suc
ceeded.' Mr Ruroede will testify to
you that without my suitable prelim
inary labors, in which I loft no con
ceivable means untried and in which I
took not tho slightest consideration of
my personal weal or woe, It would be
impossible for him, as woll as for Mr. i
Von Papen, to forward officers and
"aspirants" in any number whatever,
to Europe. This merit I lay claim to
and tho occurrences of the last days
have unfortunately compollod me, out
of sheor self-respect, to emphasize this
to Your Excellency.
II. The motlvos which induced mo
to leavo New York and whicu, to my
astonishment, were not communicated
to you, are the following:
1. I knew that the stato depart
ment had, for threo weeks, withheld a
passport application forged by mo.
Why?
2. Ten days before my departure I
learned from a telegram sent me by
Mr. Von Papon, whioh stirred me up
very much, and further through tho
omission of a cable, that Doctor Stark
had fallen into tho hands of tho Eng
lish. That gcntloman'a forged papers
were liable to come back any day and
could, owing chiefly to his lack of cau
tion, easily bo traced back to mo.
3. Officers and aspirants of the
class which I had to forward ovor,
namely tho people, saddled mo with a
lot of criminals and blackmailers,
whoso eventual revelations wero lia
ble to bring about any day tho explo
sion of the bomb.
4. Mr. Von Papen had repeatedly
urgently ordered mo to hldo myself.
5. Mr. Igol had told mo I was talc
ing tho matter altogether too lightly
and ought to foi God's sake disap
pear. 6. My. counsel, . , , had-advised
Il's IWo gy i OGDEN THEATRE j jl
N. WITHEEAT
l " Antonio Jforeno

1 BREAD ifflinii
me to hastily quit New York, inas
much as a local detective agency was
ordered to go after tho passport for
geries.
7. It had become clear to me that
eventual arrest might yet injure the
worthy undertaking and that my dis
ppparance would probably put a stop
o all investigation in this direction
How urgent It was for me to go away
s shown by the fact that, two days
iffer my departure, detectives, who
had followed up my telephone calls,
hunted up my wife's harmless and un-
: suspecting cousin in Brooklyn and H
subjected her to interrogatory. M
With expressions of the most ex- B
quisite consideration, I am, your Ex-
cellency, very respectfully, I
