More than an hour of fast scrim-

last night in developing new forma

laid on the forward pass and end runs,
indicating that Driver does not expect
his light team to penetrate the Kan

have not yet been used by the Blue to

To Overcome Weakness.
It is some of these Weaknesses
which Driver has been trying hardest
to- overcome The high school last
night was able to make good gains
against the college team, but Driver
was devoting the time to teaching the
men some of the inside game. The
freshmen were also successful in their
plays. but the coach was planning a
better defense When Washburn took
the ball for some new formation, con-
sisting of wide plays and forward
passes. there was different offense
than has been shown on the field to

the right spirit and put ginger in
their work.
Some changes may be necessary in
the lineup on account of injuries re-

n\Ll about one person IN tnousan!

because very few Blue Points arc raised.
and, secondly, because the supply is usually

In consequence, when the bowling winter

Alaska Halibut in Boston

HALIBUT is a favoritc fish in New Eng
= land, as well as in other parts Of the
country. Many staid Bostonians would
argue pugnaciously that the largest and
best OF these fishes are still caught off the
New England Coast: yet many Of these I'M
usually well vcrscd fish caters will be sur
priscd to learn that the great bulk OF the
hallbut sold in their OWN town is actually
brought there from Alaska, over four thou
sand miles away. At least trainload of
this toothsome variety of fish is brought
East by fast express every day.
Coming East from Seattle recently, the
writer, who occupied a berth in the rear
Pullman Of one Of the transcontincntal cx-
press trains, upon complaining OF the car
being cold was informed that no steam
could be had from the locomotive because
two refrigerator cars were in the middle Of
the train. Investigation proved such to be
the case, the loads being fresh halibut and
billed for the Boston market. The fishes had
been caught at the killisnoo fishing banks
