Some Flotsam and Jetsam
Found by the Wayside

A certain fellow who poses as
one who is wise above that which
is written, recently answered the
following advertisement in an
eastern rs cent paper: 1--WE will
send II cents for 1902 pennies"
He scraped around and got fifty
OF the 1902 mintage and forward
ed them in registered letter. He
received immediate reply saying
that when he sent 1852 more pen
nies, sufficient to make up the
number-Ioo2-he would receive
his II cents. He gave himself
kick, borrowed enough to sub
scribe for The Chieftain and pro-
poses in the future to keep post
ed on these little graft games.

FEW NEW FOOTBALL STARS FOR 1908

At that time many of the old timers
predicted that he would be second
Tom Shevlin. he may. He certainly
looks the part.
At Princeton they look upon NEGRO
han. the giant fullback, as their COM
ing man of the year. That McCrohan
is a good player can not be questioned,
but he is not a second Mccormick He
weighs over 200 pounds and he is a
power in tearing through the line. but
he lacks the speed OF Mccormick. 1t
may he due to his weight. but he is
somewhat awkward in making plays
that would have looked easy to the
former back of the Tigers.
Corbett Looks Good.
Most of the prominent coaches and
officials agree that the one and only
great star of the season is Corbett. OF
Harvard He is as fast as track
man and he possesses that peculiar
faculty, which cannot be described, of
being a natural football PLAYER. He is
almost vicious in his plunges through
the line and shows no sign Of physical
fear in making a tackle. He is IN
doubtedly the best of the new crop of
players. Corbett's real worth did not
show until the last half OF the game
with the Navy at Annapolis. II was
largely due To his efforts that the Grim
son escaped defeat.
There are several good men who
played last year as second iiddle and
have come out in front this season, but
the brand new crop seems to be sadly
lacking in brilliant material. This may
hc due 20 the fact tldt the Inaugural
ton of the forward pass and the on
side kick have so changed the game
that the players are paying more atten-
tiuU to strategy and trickery than to

While the twelve spectators. and twSd
OF them women, took the drizziing rain
for an hour the football players dared
not venture out. Inquiries around the
school failed TO find anybody who knew
that a game was going TO be played.
Finally an Italian peanut seller who
had got word of the coming ,oouloak

This spirit is strongly reflected even
