ONE OPPORTUNITY

Al Greater Honolulu Chamber of Commerce
would have before it numberless opportunities
for constructive community work. Here is just
q brief mention of what that progressive organi-
zation, the WinstonSalem North Carolina)
Board of Trade is doing:
1t is helping to train boys for. citizenship.
The school authorities established course for
high school seniors in government and econom-
les, and put it under the direction Of the secre-
tary OF the Winston-Sale Board of Trade The
course is a foundation course in the principles Of
economics and government, but with special ref
erence to the industrial, commercial and agri-
cultural problems Of the United States, particu-
larly the Southern States.
Next AJuvenile Club was organized among
the boys, in connection with the Board Of Trade,
the purpose being to have the boys check up their
theoretical knowledge gained in school with the
practical, everyday problems Of an industrial
center, such as WinstonSalem is. Boys in the
club were granted all the privileges Of regular
Board Of Trade members, except voting They
we're allowed to take part in debate and were as
signed to committee work. Before entering the
club they took the "Athenian oath" whereby
they promised allegiance to the highest ideals OF
civic righteousness for their city,
One OF the first tasks assigned the boys was to
nssist in the industrial survey Of Winston-S Salem
which the Board Of Trade is making Students
Who had been specializing in the economics and
torernment department Of the high school we're
chosen Tor this work IN this way they are get
ting first.hand knowledge Of organized indus
trial efforts in its relation to the welfare OF the
community.
The Winston-Salem plan rains the boys OF
tie city directly for citizenship; first, in. the
hich school, where they are taught the principles
81 civil government and insthieted in the the
.ries and basic problems governing our economic
...'er: second, in the juvenilesclab, where they
have the means Of being identified with the real
work q municipal development, and take parF
s. aca,al social and industrial investigations An
opportunity is thus provided for the boys TO
.'e5v at close range the varied industries Of the
c;tv under competent direction and in an offlclai
capacity.
n brief, the plan contemplates, first, teaching
the boys how to live; and, second, equlpping
mann with an education whereby they can make
. living which, in the end, il the real secret OF

30! WHAT DYE MEAN
KICKING THE PIGSKIN?

That phrase used SO much in the
football season. chasing the pigskin, -
involves a popular error The football
is not made of pigskin, but the hide
of a calf or COW, and for the cheaper
variety the skin of the sheep.
The origin of the term kicking the
pigskin' was explained by one of the
authorities in this way: Years ago,
when the game was in its early stages
in England the initiation was done by
means of the bladder of a pig In
those old days the skin of the pig was
actually subjected to the indignity of
being propelled high in the air by the
toe of the football payer, but as the
bladder is no longer used the term has
ceased to apply"
Footballs of the ordinary grade are
made in this country, but some of the
finest. sold to those who are not par
:icular about price, are imported from
England, where the industry was an
old one before it was started in Amer
lea.
The making of a football is almost
entirely a male industry. The only
share that women have in the work is
seen when one first enters a football
factory. At long tables girls sit past
ing Innings on sections of the footballs
cut in another part OF the factory. 1t
is work that a girl is particularly fitted
for. as the Innings must be carefully
fastened TO the rough leather and
smoothed until there is not a sign of
a blubber CT rough place on the sur
face of the lining.

easily defeated Rock Island Saturday
afternoon. The margin was AZ to o.
a score much larger than even the
most ardent Rockford rooter had an
ticipated, and crushing blow to Rock
Islands championship aspirations. 1t
was probably the worst defeat ever
inflicted on a Rock Island team on
its own field. Rockford simply toyed
with its opponents during the early
stages OF the game. running up So
points in the first half. With the game

CHANGES ATTACK
/. FOR BADGER CAME
Switches Nature of Play to Rob
Wisconsin of Certainty of
Chicago Offense.

Professor A. A. Stagg negotiated the
most surprising Juggling act of the
1918 football season yesterday at
Marshall Fled when he changed the
entire nature of the University OF
Chicago attack in preparation for Sat
urdays concluding battle with Wiscon-
sin. The shift in tactics was a Stagg-
ian tribute to Badger strength and
will permit the fans to get a glimpse
of a new aspect of Maroon cleverness.
The directors new move was made
with a view TO robbing the Wisconsin
experts Of any degree of certainty
over Chicago's offense. The Badgers
have been keeping close watch on
every Midway formation shown in
public this season and they obtained
many notes during the Chicaso-Minne-
scta game last Saturday at Minneap-
oils. Stage decided that new attack
was the only solution.
The Midway rooters started seri-
Gus BIZ of gossip yesterday to the ef-
feet that Chicago could claim the con-
ference honors regardless of the Wis
consin game The fans declare a Wis
consin victory would put Wisconsin.
Chicago and Minnesota into triple
tie. only so far as the games between
IL csc three institutions are concerned.
Chicago's superior record throughout
the season would still mean the title
for Stages youths, say the Midway
hackers.
II is figured at the Midway that
Wisconsin's tie score with Purdue is
alone enough to displace the Badgers,
while Minnesota is given little claim
to honors. The fact that the Gophers
scheduled only four conference games
this season puts them in an odd posi-
ton. outside of comparison with the
rest of the big nine" institutions.
