SPORTSMEN, NOT
SPORTS" WANTED
Dean Vincent Talks of School Ath-
Ietics at Meeting of Northern
Illinois Teachers.

La Sale, Ill, Oct. 29.-Dean
George E. Vincent of the University
of Chicago discussed athletics in
schools before yesterdays session of
the Northern Illinois Teachers asso-
citation. He said that what was need
ed was more sportsmen rather than
so-called sports"
"This type known as the sport "
said Professor Vincent, els the curse
of athletics. and there is a great NOR
al danger that the high school ath-
Ietics become a detriment. We should
teach our boys and girls the differ
ence between the true sportsman, the
man who is fair and is out to win
If his side is the better. and the
sport who wants to win at all haz-
ards and will resort to devious tricks
to accomplish his purpose.
DIR. G. Stanley Hall of Clark uni
versity declared that in years to
come moving pictures would become
among the greatest elements in the
development of the chiid's mind.

IN CLOSE BATTLE
Expected That West Ends and
Ilhni Game Will Be Hardest
Fought of Year.
ARE EVENLY. BALANCED
Difference of But Five Pounds in the
Weight Totals of Both Elevens
Meet Tomorrow.

What is expected to be the fiercest
football battle Of the year is to take
place tomorrow afternoon at Athletic
park in Moline when the West Ends,
present state champions, meet the Il
lini club in the first of their two en-
gagements. The teams appear to be
as evenly matched as any two could
be. The total weight of the Illini
players is but five pounds more than
the total of the West Ends and this
weight is very evenly distributed.
The dope is that the Illini have the
stronger individual players. while the
West Ends have the advantage of hav-
ing played together longer. The fact
that the Illini have played but one
game, and that an easy one, Is said
to be against them, as their coach has
had no opportunity to strengthen the
weak points which usually are found
In hard games. This is offset, how
ever, by the fact that within the last
two weeks the West Ends have played
two of the stiffest aggregations In the
state and some of the players are not
in the best OF condition, while the Il
lini are in fine fettle.
Him Are Determined.
The members of the Illini club are
determined to win the game, in fact
the team was organized with that end
in view. The team is made up of for
mer'lEasr End players and men who
were stars in their high school days.
Individually there is little doubt as to
their having it on the West Enders,
and yet the consensus of opinion Is
that the game will be extremely close
and hard fought at every stage. In
Hartzell, the Illini have a kicker Of
great ability, both as a punter and as
a drop kicker. His teammates expect
his toe to win the game by the air
route if all other means fail. The
West Ends have excellent punters in
both Wolfe and Johnson, but neither
has done much in the drop or place
kicking line.
How Teams VIII Line Up.

teams are as follows:

TAFT'S ALOHA
FOR UNCLE JOE

WASHINGTON, November ga
new mark of the esteem in which the
Speaker of the House is held by Pre-
sldent Taft was displayed today when
1t was announced from the White
House that this year there would be
added to the three regular state din
ners a special dinner to the Speak
err" For more than half a century the
state dinners have been limited to
three-a dinner to the diplomatic
corps, one to the Cabinet and one to
the Judiciary. This year, on Febru-
airy IA, the Speaker will be the guest
of honor.
The fact that heretofore there has
been no state dinner to the Speaker
does not mean that he has never been
given a dinner at the White House.
Nearly every year a dinner has been
given in his honor, and Mr.. Cannon
has been the recipient of this attention
at the hands Of Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr..
Taft. The dinners, however, have
come always after the close of the
season, when by no chance the term
state dinner" could have been applied
While the innovation to be brought
about by Mr.. Taft might arise simply
from a respect for the Office Of the
Speaker, Mr.. Cannon's personal acti-
tude toward other dinners seems to
color the whole affair with the person
al or political relations of Mr.. Taft
and Mr.. Cannon. Undoubtedly in view
Of the increasing frlendliness of the
two men during the last two years
first in the tariff struggle and last
year in the fight for railroad regula,
tion-the construction that will be put
upon the new honor Mr.. Taft is con.
ferring upon the Speaker will be that

CHICAGO, December Eff Chi
cago becomes disguised with both the
Republican and the Democratic par
ties, as has Milwaukee, it is quite
likely that the city government, like
that of Milwaukee, will fall into the
hands of so-called socialist party
This statement was made today by
Charles w. Eliot, president emeritus
of Harvard university, who arrived in
Chicago from Milwaukee and will give
a public lecture this evening In AS.

an Milwaukee" said Mr.. Eliot, "the
so.called socialist government is OPP

question of property and does what
it can toward conducting properly the
affairs of the city. The government
is controlled, have heard, by a secret
council. which is not representative

Objectionable to the American citizen,

indirectly that an honor of this sort
was due to the Speaker. OF course
ne was never invited to the Diplomatic
corps banquet. But to the dinners to
the Judiciary AMI to the Cabinet he
was unfailingly invited. At these din
ners' however, he would necessarily
nave to yield precedence-at one to
the Vice President and at the other
10 the senior Justice present, and. I'M
failingly, Mr. Cannon has declined to
compromise the dignity of his office
ana ne has consistently regretted "
Mr. Cannon has always held that the
speaker is the second officer in the
government and on many occasions
ne has insisted on something like ia
cit recognition of his claim.
That much for the social side of the
matter. What people will care about
most is the political Importance of the
new manifestation of the Presidents
friendship for Mr.. Cannon. OF course
the Presidents friends will say that
honor is done to the office, and not to
the man, and that the compliment paid
to the stand pat Republican, Mr. Can.
non, this year will be repeated next
year to the Democratic Mr.. Clark, but
that explanation will still leave things
to talk about and the history of the
friendship between the President and
the Speaker is interesting.
The Taft-cannon Friendship.
I When the President was nominated
and before his term began, it seemed
an even toss whether open war would
break out between the two men. The
thing was discussed freely in dis
patches from Hot Springs, Va, where
the President-elect was summering
The emlssaries went to and fro and In
the end the President declared for q
policy of hands-off in the fight for the
organization of the House.
Even at that early date there were
mutterings that hands-off policy II
such fight meant all the aid Mr.. Can
non would need. Later Development
showed that these predictions were
correct At first LIr. Cannon Tough
alone with his old power. Buc as The
struggle deepened the Presidents
name was freely used to drive Repub
