Davies, Bayer. Stopp, Morse, Brett
The kickoff will be at 4:15 sharp.
With the exception Of the goal keeper.
this is the same team as defeated the
HonoluIus The goal position seems TO
be troubling the Males. Clement, Fem
wick and Chamberlain have all defended
the post in league matches, and now
Cumming is scheduled to figure between
the uprights. 1t is to be hoped that they
get the right man for the position III
time for the match against the Honoluius
next Saturday, for neither team can al
ford to carry any passengers" in thae
game, which will practically decide inc
league supremacy.

the flags as called for by the racing
rules. Each yacht, however small,
must carry club burgee at the top
mast and the owners private signal at
the main peak. Another rule which
their attention is called to by the Of
ficers, is the carrying of one serviceable
life buoy. 1t behooves owners of yachts
to see that they are provided with the
necessary outfit before the day of race.
The latest addition to the fleet is a
11-foot yacht tender for the Gladys.
She was designed and built by Peter
Swanson of Belvedere, Cal, and is one
of the prettiest little models ever seen
here. She is substantially built and
copper fastened. The boat will carry
six people and in smooth water about
eight They are a necessity for cruis-
ing yachts, enabling the crew to land
most anywhere and should the yacht
run aground they are most important
aids for running out anchors to haul off
by. A cruising boat on the Pacific or
Atlantic would as soon think of going
without anchors as not to have a ten
der.
The third-class boats have been
measured according to the new rule
with the following results: Columbia,
1913 feet tracing length; Princess,
1878; Malihini, 1884; Pirate, 1910; Myr-
tie, 1895; Vi-Ke, 1S.41; Skip, 1928. The
Myrtle therefore has the smallest
measurement and the -Vi-Ke the larg-
est The Hihimanu has not been meas
ured yet, but it is understood that she
will compete in the coming races. She
is practically an untried boat having
been used but brief period last fall.

FRIEND Of
FOOTBALL.
President ThWing
Champions
Game.

President Thwing, of the Western
Reserve University, has written for the
North American Review a paper on
The Ethical Functions of Football"
There may be some who Will be inter
ested in this rather unusual view, and
for their benefit the following example
of President Thwings treatment of the
subject is submitted:
Football teaches man the value
of the memorable. 1t brings each stu
dentsup short and sharp against laws
which are to be absolutely kept or
such laws life itself is full.
Seeond-Football illustrates the value
of the positive. In the building OF
character, negative has some. but
slight value. 1t represents the more
elementary conditions of the ethical
process. 1t is we'll to adopt as
ones ethical rule that whatever is noe
expressly allowed is denied: " is bet
ter to adopt as ones ethical rule that
whatever is not expressly denied is al
lowed Life is to be Interpreted as
sound wholesome, righteous, unless
there be evidence to the contrary, ana
never as corrupting. base, wrong, UNI
less there be, evidence to the contrary
Such an Interpretation creates the
highest qualities of health and of
healthfulness. Be it said football en-
bodies and enforces such an interpre-
tation. 1t emphasizes the aggressive
the orth-putting, the direct, the posi-
tive. 1t teens with the glorious sense
of certainty. 1t embodies Carlyle's
eternal yes. 1t illustrates the gsctence
and art of realism. 1t embodies actu-
ality. 1t stands for the perpendicular.
(What of those dogmatists who say a
player with the ball must run lowD
It teaches one to do. Its commands
are condensed into the command for
ward 1t bucks, it pushes, 1T breaks IL
runs it goes; it goes through the nhe'
it goes round the ends, but it goes.
s.Third-Footbal in its ethical rela-
lions represents the value of compel
ing interest. College life has many in
terests: most of these interests are
good: a few indifferent, and very few
of evil relations Most students have
some share in all that helps to consu-
tute college life, but only fewH stu
any one of these relations. 1t is well
for each man to possess at least one
interest which is absorbing. Such an
interest develops the conscience and
the whole character. 1t creates force
and it also makes more forceful forces
already existing
..Fourth-FootbaH, further, embodies
the process of self discovery. Self-dls-
covery is a condition, but it is more
than a condition. 1t is also means. All
the early years of ones life are years
of the revealing of self to self; they
are years of self-revelation both as
cause and as a consequence of selt-en-
Iargement What rapture belongs 10
the true soul in finding he is larger
stronger better man than he oeiieFeu
himself to be; what remorse, or at Ieast
regret. belongs 10 the noble soul III
finding he is less large, less strohs'
less good than he believed himssiI 10

Porter are members of the cpn-
panies comprising the ''combine'
they will refuse to serve in the Ca
pacity to which they were elected,
in case City Council should declare
the 'anti-combine' ticket elected.

ecutsd at Lingayen, the capital of the

Within the last few days petitions
against the removal of American

teen towns and villages. The reason
for these petitions is said to be fear
of bandits after the troops have left.
1t is believed in some quarters that
the petitioners are more probably i'll

of the American soldiers in the places
in question than by fear of robber
