Hence. it was long ago recognized that
the direct action Of a temporary majority
OF the existing electorate must be limited
by fundamental law; that is, by con-
stitution intended to protect the indivld-
ual and the minority Of the electorate
and the non voting majority Of the peo'
Pile against the unjust or arbitrary action
Of the majority Of the electorate.
This made II necessary to introduce INTO
the Constitution certain declarations as TO
the rights of the individual which II was
the purpose OF the whole people TO main
tain through the government against the
aggression OF any temporary majority OF
the electorate and to provide In the same
instrument certain procedure by which the
individual might assert and vndicate those
rights. Then. TO protect against the mo
mentary impulse of a temporary majority
of the electorate TO change the fundamental
law and deprive the individual or the vot-
ing minority or the non voting majority or
nalienable rights, the Constitution provided
number of checks and balances whereby
every amendment to the Constitution must

that are intended TO secure much deioera-
ton on the part Of the electorate in adopt

that percentage sign petition asking his

whether the Judge is to be removed or not

back was told off to do nothing
but meet the runners chin with the

manently hurt in the process no one
knows to this day.

course, that the Ntackler ran the
risk of being kicked in the face,
but, after ALL the defensive stiff

Gus features of the hurdling meth-
cd. These old tricks of the game,
fortunately. have been abolished,
and the stiff arm is once more
what it was Originally intended to
be-a perfectly legitimate aid to
the runner.
So important was the stiff arm
considered at Princeton last year
where the runners were fast but
light that the coaches set a series
of posts in the ground at irregular
intervals. their padded tops at just
about the height of tackler's
head In and out between these
posts the backs were run. each
man giving the stiff arm to every
post. 1t was something like the
schooling of polo ponies between
stakes. The result was apparent
early in the season, for the Prince
ton backs did better work with the
stiff arm than did the runners on
any other team.

We are told that Vanderbilt will

Rather singular that Georgia
should average 169 pounds per man.
Therefore, there can be no edge in
weight. Georgia's ends will per-
haps have the shade in weight on
Vanderbilt's wing men. In eXpe-

par. Since my attention has been

gray matter, nerve and experience.
Both teams have new quarter
backs and in this department there
should not be very much edge. This

merits of the backfields. From all
reports. Vanderbilt must be ex-

INDIANAPOLIS, oct. 1S.-A rumor

to land Pitcher George Dauss. the In

one best bet with the Saints this year
to Detroit Just before the season
closed, where he had tryOut with the

In case Jennings decides not to keep
Dauss. it is regarded as a certainty that
he will come here.
