Movement Endorsed.
DR.. Robert Nj. Ycrkes Of Harvard
University heartily approves of the
scout movement. He says that it is
a great growing power for good III
the development Of our boys. Its
IDEALS" lie writes; appeal trresistibly
to the youth. During the years be-
tween ten and sixteen the boy per-
sistently seeks ideals; he must have
heroes; he must initiate. Surely no
more admirable traits may be kept
before his Imagination than those Of
the true scout; trustworthiness, 10y
atty, helpfulness, friendliness, cour-
tcousness, kindness, obedience, cheer
fulness, thrift, bravery, cleanliness
and reverence. Self-knowledge, self
control, and service are the watch
words of scouting.
Fortunate is the youth who falls
under the influence of an older man
whose ideals are worthy and whose
knowledge Of the boy nature and Of

grown.ups can do for our boys is to
e,:emplify in our lives the scout
ideals.

as leaders as are our poys as follow

Henry w. Holmes, assistant pro-
fessor Of education, Harvard Univer-
sity, regards the Boy Scout movement
as an unusual opportunity to educate
the boys by getting them to do things
in which they actually are interested.
mo normal boy of 49," he writes,
"can fail to be Enthusiastically inter-
ested in woodcraft, tracking, signal
inf, archery, canoeing, campcraft,
and seamanship. With these the
scouts combine first aid, hygiene, ma
ture study, citizenship and 'chiVal-
ry."
Concerning the purpose of the
scout movement, he writes: THE
aim of the scouts Is to help boys to
be physically capable, practically self
reliant, mentally alert and morally
earnest-a general educational aim.
1t is the aim of every school that has
not set itself to prepare for any spe-
cial phase of life. But it is hard for
schOols-especially for public schools
Ito produce even mental alertness
in all the varieties of that quality
which life calls for. The scouts have
come to help the schools by the use
of means beyond the ordinary range
of school affairs"
II is easy 10 see that many boys
would never know the delights Of
scouting nor get its fundamental
training if it were not for the exist
cncc of the Boy Scouts. City life
makes wodcraft and campcraft only
an impossible dream to thousands Of
boys, until some organized agency
opens the way to forest and stream.
Stewardship may remain forever

from good sailing And the finer
technique of these, good things may
be lost, even to those who have the
initiative or the luck to try them, I'M

Speaking of the training that the
boy receives, Prof. Holmes says:
"And what 1t gives them to do is
worth doing-not many college men.
could qualify as a first class scout
without summers practice, and
the effort would leave them then with
a decidedly less academic conscious
ness But even more important than
this is the fact that scouting means
to the boy an opportunity for heroic
living. At time when he wants to
do big things with band Of heroes
like himself, the scouts give him big
things to do that are healthful, prof.
liable, and worthy. His imagination
can find range enough and to spare
in the great precedents for the enter
prise he is undertaking; II he is map

rnents even for a first class badge,

RIVERS HANDS
CROSSLAC|NC IN
LONG COAST CO.
Mexican Turns Kisses Into Cheers
by Battering fastener Around
Ring for 20 Rounds.
Bv H. NJ. Walker.

r OS ANGELES, Nov. 2S.-Joe
Rivers, Mexican lightweight,
turned Kisses into cheers here
yesterday afternoon when he wage ]
battle against Leach Cross and hand
ed the New Yorker one of the most
artistic lickings dished out hereabouts
In some time. For twenty rounds
Rivers was vicious and relentless in
his attack on Cross, and the further
the battle went the greater was
Cross punishment and suffering.
Rivers displayed a pantherlike ag-
eressiveness throughout, and. white
he failed to land knock-o he had
his man lettering, practically helpless,
toward the end Of the bout. He beat
and humbled the New York boy until
Cross could only sit in his corner, too
weak to rise, trying in vain to explain
his showing against his tigerlike op-
ponent, 49,,
Rivers started out fast at the start,
niIing ND a big lead in the first eight
rounds bv the use OF straight left
labs. Cross showed a flash of life IN
the next few rounds, but the Next
can again took the lead in the thir-
tenth round. They battled flercely
I'm the fifteenth, sixteenth and seven
teenth rounds, with Rivers increasing
his lead.
Leach came near dropping the Mex
lean in the nineteenth round by lead
ing Rivers on by using stalling tao
Tics Joe rushed the Fastener around
the ring, and lust when it looked as II
he was about to stop Leach, the lat
ter let loose terrific rights and lelts 10
the Mexican's jaw, nearly hghtlng
Rivers off his feet. When the Dell
sounded ending the session, RIVERS
was in bad shape.
The minutes rest, however, fresh
ened Joe, and he came back strong
in the final round. This was the best
round Of the fight. both boys slug
cling throughout the three minute pc
riod.
Rivers was credited with two knock
downs in the fight. He floored Leach
in the fourth with short LEFT nook
10 the jaw. Cross remained down Tor
the count of nine. Rivers sent cross
TO the canvas again in the twelfth for
the nine count, flooring Leach with
right and left swings to the face.
There was no doubt as to the win
ner at the finish. Referee George
Blakes decision was just and ap-
peared the only one he could make.
Rivers fought a cool heady battle.
surprising even his own admirers.
Outside of the nineteenth round Cross
never had a real chance to win.
When Rivers entered the ring. a
crowd of some 1000 had gathered,
Probably because he is a Mexican the
Kisses greeted him, but his work in
the ring brought out the true sports e
manship in the spectators, and they
began to cheer. There wasn't a queS
ton of a doubt as to who won.

Baker Beats Saul on
Foul; Kid Young and
Prizes in Hot Scrap

ATHENS, Nov. 2S.-Two corking
bouts were staged here last night be-
tween Mike Saul and Frank Baker
and kid" Young and Meyer Prizes.
Baker won over Saul in the seventh
round on a foul after the boys had
put UP one of the best bouts ever
staged here. The Young Prizes scrap
went the limit, with Young having a
slight shade, but not enough to war
rant him the decision If one were
awarded. The featherweights kept
busy at all times and put up a great
scrap
heard from later. Young injured his
right hand in the second round.
The Saul Baker bout was fast from
start to finish. Mike fioored Baker in
the third round for the count of nine,
but Frank managed to pile up quite
lead on points at the time of the foul
Saul caught Frank a hard left hand
smash below the belt line in the sew
enth session Baker fell to the can
vas in a heap, when Referee Wood
ruff stopped the go, awarding the fight
to Baker on foul.
The third bout of the evening was
called off. Kid Goldman tried to hold
up Promoter Postero at the last min
ute, but the latter made a wise move
by refusing to put him on. Spider"
Britt was supposed to meet Gold
man, and agreed to meet him at
catch weights. Britt was given rail-
road fare and training expenses.

Heisman Explains Big Victory
Coach Has Boost for Fielder

ure this sort of thing cuts in the
playing of team.
HERETOFORE is, for the past
five years-Tech's winning has
been but an empty honor, on account
Of the known weakness of the Tiger
team. But one has only to recall that
Auburn could beat that team this year
but 20 points, that Georgia could beat
them but IS to Is, that they defeated
Mercer as badly as did Auburn and
defeated South Carolina worse than
any other team has beaten Carolina
this year, to realize just what the
Yellow Jackets accomplished to pile
up such a score.
This time the victory is no hollow
honor 1t gives a standing for Tech
that can hardly be disputed, and it
shows that with her men back in the
game and in the same kind of shape,
she was playing at the finish of the
season a game of ball that looked per-
ilously close to as good as the very
best of the season, no matter what
teams play we look at,
The came was a very rough one,
and leave It to the spectators to say
which team did the most OF the rough
work and which team started it-nnt
once. but repeatedly. The officials
caught some of it, bI t | think the
watching thousands saw much more
than the officials: and Tech is willing
to leave IT to that throng as to where
the blame lies.
1t is also regrettable that one OF ths
coaches of the ClemGon team was OFT
on the field and back of the goal posts
on the occasion of Tech scoring her
second touchdown at the south goal.
1t looked bad, very bad.
For once Tech struck her stride
right at the start OF the game and
played throughout the contest at the
top of her bent. That, in word, IS
the reason Clemson lost, and lost
badly.
Just one word more-so many OF
the yellow Jackets covered them
selves with glory, but-well, how
about that boy Fielder? ! guess it's
hats off for all Of us to him-what?
