For the first time in tl^ history of the twe schools, Allendale High de feated Barnwell High Friday after noon on the former’s field, 7 to 0, be fore quite a laige crown of fans. Ac cording to pre-game report* from Al lendale, that team was doped to win by a margin of four or five touch down*. That being true, the result in s way must have been a disappoint ment to the Allendale team's support ers. The following dispatch to the daily newspapers tells the story: * Allendale, Nov. 15.—Captain Fowke of Allendale blocked a punt and then w'ent over for a touchdown on a de layed buck in th« game here this af ternoon. This, combined with the wonderful defense of the Allendale team, beat Barnwell, 7 to 0. The playing cf the whole Allendale team was exceptional, with Fowke and Os wald playing unusual football. Os wald, a 115-pound end, put on an ex hibition of football that excels the work of any seen on the Allendide football field. Bamw’ell presented a scrappy team, w’ith the Birt twins playing star foot ball. The playing of both teams was hard and clean. The Allendale team deseives much credit for beating a teany of Barnwell's caliber. , « v .. rand San Francisco.—There Is a secret sorrow In the rapks of San Quentin prison’s 4,200 callous convicts. One of their number has been freed. . Scarcely a prisoner exists x behind the walls of this great California penitentiary but who does not be grudge to Damascus Garcia Gallur, murderer, the freedom at last given him. True, these hardened criminals gave the forty-seven-year-old Gallur a soul stirring ovation the day before he left the prison, late last month. Yet they hated to see him go. F’ourteen years ago Damascus GaJ- lur bad been sent there from Oakland for killing August Hotchkiss, a money lender. Previously Gallur served time for embezzlement At tlie time he was an obscure musician, and once was In the band of John Philip SoQsa. When Gallur walked through the gates of San Quentin on parole be cause of ill health he did so as a fa mous and wealthy man. To his credit In an Oakland hank Is $93,000, the sum he had acquired while In San Quentin. Gallur now is one of the most widely known composers of music In America. And even more to his credit are the San Quentin band and the San Quentin orchestra, not only the finest convict musical organi zations In the world, but recognized by musical leaders as among the very finest of su<;h organizations in or out side prison walls. — Gallur was granted parole only be cause of 111 health. Recently he had suffered a paralytic stroke, slight of nature, and Immediately there flooded In on the boart^ of state prison di rectors a deluge of pleas that he be freed. Thousands of members of the Mu sicians’ Union of America pleaded his cause. So did John Philip Sousa. Gal- ll-Curcl, Philip Shapiro, the late Paul Stelndorf, and others well known In the musical world. Sousa declares Gallur Is one of two conductors who can lead s band of more than fifty in symphonies with out once referring to the score. But the only plea that the prison hoard could recognize was the state of the mnestro's health. . While Gallur's band and orchestra ployed only to those ears behind the prison walls. Ids music daring the past 14 years has carried to many comers of the earth through the marches and the overtures he has composed. Presidents Hear Hit Music. A >vmHz, “May Day,” dedicated to tlie daughter of the captain of the guard at San Quentin, brought (hillur $7.lKN> Id royalties. He won the Na tional Associatl'm of Music Clubs* first prize for the best march with a hum Iter he com|Mtsed for the National War Mothers. The prize was $3.0011. Gal- Itir turned It over to the War Mothers for their work. Perhaps his most famous composi tion. his “Gold Stripe March.” has been made tlie official march of the Veteran* of Foreign Wars and has been played before Presidents Coolldge and Hoover. While Gallur's hank account totals $9.3.000^ he is said to have amassed $143,060 during hts term, the rest go ing to charitable causes. In the lust two years Gallur has been unable to sell his compositions, due to a new prison ruling forbidding convicts sailing their writings. He has more than 000 compositions ready for music publishers. Gallur Is said to have been offered n contract of $1,500 per week to com pose music for talkies for Metro-Gold- wyn-Mayer ^studios. Louis Mayer Is known to lie among those who had worked for the prisoner’s release. Physicians are more or less dubious over Gallur’s physical qpndition and doubt that he will ever be a well man. But the indomitable Damascus scoffs at tbem. -1 shall he well, and 1 shall lead a mighty hand some day,” he says, -hut none finer than those boys over be hind the prison walls.” Ellenton, Nov. 16.—The Woman's Missionary society if the Baptist church held an interesting meeting Monday afternoon in the Philathea classroom.
