When the lineup was announced the
dopesters were alarmed at seeing
Cornwall In the center's shoes. The
Saginaw boy had not showed up very
well and was only used because Boyle
was on the sick list. But Cornwall
took his opportunity and played a
brilliant game His passing was

AS It stands today the Michigan
team seems TO need no changes. II
they can play together for the rest OF
the season they will win. They have
found the keystone and so they stand
as one unit. What was lacking be-

Longman himself admits that he
doesn't look for a victory. He was
pessimistic even before he had seen
Michigan play and before the "Ag-

Michigan was also leary about the
Gentlemen from Indiana" They
thought that the Catholics were hold

a hard game Now the Wolverines
feel that they can beat "Shortie's
Pets" without much trouble, although
they know that Notre Dame always
puts up a hard fight The NJ A. c.

NO LEADERS IN CONGRESS HAVE
COME FORWARD WITH A PRE-

JOURNMENT.

Washington, Feb 27--Although
congress has been in session nearly
three months none of the leaders of
either party has come forward with
the prediction when final adjourn
ment Is expected The uncertainty is
due chiefly to opposition being more
developed against some administra-
ton measures and the fact that the
debate Is likely to continue for many
weeks In connection with nearly
every one of the presidents bills.
Regardless of the fact that discus
sion will probably be extended over
long period on most bills on which
the president has his heart set, ii is
believed they ultimately will be en-
acted into law. This is true as to
the interstate commerce bill, two Of
the conservation measures, court In,
junction legislation and the postal
savings banks.

IL the principal element in determin.
ing the average cost OF transporting
a pound of mail Possibly the reasoR
for this is found in the fact that the
average haul of magazines has bees
shown to be 1,0lS miles and the aver
age haul Of daily newspapers onl,
291 miles.
The conclusion that there is no
more expense to the government in
carrying magazines an average di+
tance OF 1,04S miles than in carrying
newspaper 291 miles IS so palpably
wrong as hardly to deserve comment
Mr. Wilder's argument IA based on
the fact that the cost Of carrying a
pound OF mail Is greater on certain
short railroad routes, where the
weights of mail cnrried are small
than on many longer lines where the
weights CARED are greater. He as
serts that as the newspapers are In
the short hauls they are more than
likely in the small weigts, and there
fore cost the government a higher
rate per pound than magazines This
involves the erroneous assumption
that newspapers because they ara
hauled a small average distance, are
likely to be carried over the short,
lightweight routes instead OF the main
railroad lines. AS matter OF fact
liz Is the main lines that enter large
cities where newspapers are pub
lished while the short. lightweight
routes seldom touch large cities. The
fallacy of the associations whole con
tention is conclnsively shown by the
fact that the entire weight OF mail Is

He further contends that the par

pay for these lightweight routes is
only 2is per cent of the total compen-
sation for railroad service.
