therefore, It is not likely that any ex-
pertinent will be made in the lineup
for the Dickinson game on Saturday,

Gettysburg game and it is possible
that he will not be in condition to
play against Dickinson. This will be

Pennsylvania, four times beaten, has
lost much support as a favorite In Its

has ended its season, defeated by
Princeton and Harvard in such close
contests that it may easily lay claim
to a place among the leaders.
Penn State, still unbeaten, looms
formidably for its last game with Pitt
and for recognition for those who seek
to define the Eastern championship.
The Carlisle Indians, too, remain a
strong eleven and favorites for the
two more games on their schedule
Brown and Johns Hopkins-notwith-
standing that their progress was mar

The intersectional championship is
an undefned honor as the defeat Of

FRANCE TO THE RESCUE

The French ministryis the first
government in the world to adopt
a definite program to reduce the
cost of living. 1t will present a
bill to its Legislative bodies pro-
viding for the following:
Il Municipal shops to be es-
tablished either by in admins
trative tenant" (Some individual
who wants to tackle the job or
by local cooperative societies.
2-Government to advance half
the necessary capital and charge
four per cent annual interest for
its use.
3-Such shops not to exceed
one for each 5000 of the popula-
ton.
The ministry recognizes that
high prices are due in part to con-
ditions lying wholly beyond the
control Of government, but thinks
they are partly due to waste in
distribution, to monopoly and to
combinations among commission
men and other merchants.
They will undertake to elm
mate the unnecessary part of
high cost OF living.
