FINEST ATHLETIC FIELD MADE OUT OF A RAVINE DES MOINF.S, lowa, Sept. Unlike any other athletic field in the west, and probably in the world. That is the unanimous verdict of the persons who view the new held that the university is building in this city the inside it looks like the Harvard, Stadium, but from the outside the nature of the construction cannot lie realized. It is virtually a hole in ground. This new field when completed will cost in the neighborhod of and with the exception cf the Held just finished at Harvard will he the most complete in the country.

It is situated two blocks to the northwest of the university building in the northwest jsirt of the city and has excellent street car facilities. The peculiar feature of the new field is that it is a natural amphitheater. Tlie field was formerly a deep narrow ravine, with the hills on the west and east and the grade of Forest avenue on the south. The vast project of converting this place into an athletic field came through the necessity of Hie case, other land in the vicinity bring covered with residences. The beet engineers in the city shook their heads.

It was an impossibility. Alumni of the engineering department of the school got together and formulated the plans and surveyed the ground, and the contracts for the removal of the thousands of yards cf earth were let. Around a quarter of a mile track rises the ainpitheater. inclosing it all with the exception of the small space at the north end, the scats being ret in the side of the hill. While all the seats are not in place at the present time, when it is completed it will have seating capacity for but few less than the Harvard building which has seated 40,000.

I'he track is 30 feet wide in the straightaways and 20 on the turns and will be cindered around the entire length. From the track a drop of five feet occurs to the level of the foot ball and base ball field. The field is fitted with the best gridiron that modern science can and with the coming of spring will have a baseball field and tennis courts for held athletics. The field will be dedicated Oct. 8 with the annual game between Drake and the State university, the event being celebrated us a city holiday.

It will in time the center of atli- Ictics of the state and of the Missourii valley, and in all proliability wil be the scene of the next state meet. ROCKY FORD CELEBRATES ROCKY FORD.

FINDS NEW ARMOR PROCESS PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8 It Is stated that the Midvale Steel Company has a new secret process fof making armor plate that may revolutionize that Industry as well as reduce the cost to an extremely low figure.
