Relic of, Prehistoric Man

Yale university is to have. as a gift
from the University of Heidelberg, a
plaster copy of the famous Heidelberg
man"
The man" is not man at all, but
jawbone. Possibly 1T was woman's
jaw. 1t was found buried deep in a
sand pit near Heidelberg, Germany.
and is regarded as the very oldest hui
man relic ever found. Some scientists
have estimated its age at more than
100000 years.
1t belongs to what geologists call the
lower quarternary period. The teeth
are well preserved The bone is twice the
size, of the ordinary human jawbone
of the present day and differs from 1t
in other ways. Those who believe in
the Darwinian theory think this is a
relic OF the missing link'-that imag-
ined creature that stood half way be-
tween ape and man, and which. accord
ing to the Darwinians, ages ago ceased
to exist.

DECLINES THE VAN
SURDAM CHALLENGE
The High School Director OF
Athletics Says Clean
Is Impossible.
FL Paso. Tex. Nov. %. 1910.


Editor FL Paso Herald:
In answer to the challenge for a
football game issued over the name
Of superintendent Van Surdam, [ wish
to say. not on behalf of the football
team but in behalf of clean athletics.
that I cannot accept
The pitiabIe spectacle yesterdor
only illustrates the impOssibility Of
any officials to have a clean game be-
tween the High school and the Mill
tary institute. The officials that SUI
perintendent Van Surdam proposes
could not possibly enforce clean play
ing any better than the coaches of the
two teams did The repeated fouls
committed as shown by the penalties
inflicted by Mr. Coldwell and super
intendent Van Surdam is proof enough
to me that another game would only
make still worse the present bad feel
ing between the two schools and
tempt the boys still further to I'M
clean athletics
From the standpoint of finance and
for the sake of winning an uRques-
toned victory 1 should be eager TO
play another football game and would
WELD to the wishes of superintendent
Van Surdam and the High school foot
ball team; but for the above reason ]
must decline the challenge in the face
OF the opposition of our own team
