wonderful showing the light Tech team
made IN fairly outplayiug Sewanee,
who came SO near defeating Georgia:
the crushing defeat Of Alabama by the
Yellow Jackets and Georgia's subse-
quent desperate battle with that team,
the stories Of the myriad tricks and
passes that Tech has perfected have all
served to lessen the walkaway spirit
with which the Arhenians viewed the
Tech game several weeks ago.
Though the Georgia rooters yelled
Justify though the band played blatant
ly, though the colors were raised aloft
defiantly, the university crowd showed
plainly that they knew they were in for
battle--a battle to the death.
The Tech team spent the last two
days quietly and restfully. The mem
5ers were together practically all of
their waking hours and listened TO lee
ture after lecture by their wizard
coach, Heisman. AS usual, he had
brought his team to the Georgia game
IN practically perfect physical condi-
ton.

NEW LAWS REGULATING
WoMAN'S WORKING HOURS

During their last sessions the Legis-
latures Of several States passed new
laws regulating the number OF work
ing hours for women. South Carolina
passed a law limiting them to sixty
hours per week in mercantile houses and
the textile mills, of which there are so
many in the State. In Ohio and Massa-
chusetts a fifty-four-hour bill has been
exacted. The Ohio bill applies to ev-
erything except hotels and mercantile
establishments. Utah and Missouri have
also passed nine-hour laws. The ten
hour law which the legislature of ILL.,
nois enacted n 1903 is enlarged so as to
include practically every kind of estab-
lishment where women are employed.
Wisconsin has established a fifty-five-
hour week, excepting night work, which
is less. Minnesota has strengthened its
ten-hour law by extending the penalty
for violation SO as to include manufac-
turing and mechanical establishments.
The States of Washington and California
have passed eight-hour day laws for
women. The law OF Washington applies
to the usual morcantile and mechanical
establishments. restaurants, hotels, and
laundries, but the California act applies
also to telegraph, telephone. express, and
transportation Offices.
