High School boys ran rough shod
over Troy High School hefe Friday
afternoon.
The Hornbeak boys got awoy fast
and at the end of the half the score
was 16 to 6. Hornbeak was in com
plete command of the situation at all
times, and the Troy boys never
threatened to win. The five-man de
fense of Hornbeak worked so per
fectly that Troy caged only one field
goal. Hornbeak's ability on offense
is shown by the score.
The game ended with the score 22
to 8 in Hornbeak's favor.

dividual star, caging six field goals.
However, he was not the only star of
the game, for every member of the

played a splendid game.
Reeves starred for Troy, caging
six of the eight points made.

What is a Tractor For ?
Select a Tractor as you
would a Horse or Mule
INTERNATIONAL TRACTORS are not make-believe Tractors.
They are finished products of the greatest manufacturing institu
tion in the world, they are marketed in a complete way and jiot left
to buy in pieces as you find you need them.
Compare the working parts of International 8-16 Tractor, with the supposed competition that pretends
to market a farm tractor. Are you interested in the Removable Cylinder Sleeves, the large Connec
ting Rods the Fenders the Platform on which to put your feet or stand the Brakes the Governor
the Adjustable Draw Bar the large Main Bearings with bronze backs the Dust Pan and the many
other features that actually exist and are a part of the regular equipment on the International 8-16
Tractor. Are you interested in the weight of the Tractor you buy, and is this weight equally distributed?
Are you interested in the safety of yourself or the man you select to run your Tractor? Did you ever
hear of an International Tractor "RARIN" back and killing or injuring the driver? Do you know many
such accidents happened in the United States during the past three years, or even in your own neigh
hood? Count them right at home.
Replacement parts for International Tractors are not toys, and not sold at toy stores, but you will
find them at thousands of real Implement dealers "service stations" right handy to your farm; and
92 branch houses of the Harvester Company are backing these local stations with experienced men
to serve you.
Mr. Tractor Prospect: Ask the International Dealer for a demonstration, try out the International 8-16
Tractor, request the competitor to bring his Tractor and do the same, or equally as good work. You
will be surprised to find out the difference between the two Tractors when you get them where you
can actually compare them, and besides all this, you are "safe" in using an International.
