BIG nine SQUADS
FACE HARD FIGHT
Early Indications Point to
Strong Teams and Close
Battle for Title.

Because of the large number of vet
Grams and the promising material
which reported to coaches of the big
nine" colleges at the official opening
Of the practice season. last Satur-
day the fight for the conference title
seems likely to be much closer and
more interesting than in recent years.
The coaches, if reports are true,
are we'll satisfied with their prospects,
so better football should be displayed
and the contests should be more bit
terly fought. Because of. few changes
in the rules the mentors have good
idea of the possibilities of the code,
and the spectators will be able to get
clearer understanding of the game.
OF the new coaches who have taken
charge at four conference institutions,
Coach Grady of Northwestern will
have the hardest time to develop a
strong eleven. The purple mentor has
only three veterans around whom to
! build a team, although he is reported
/ to have a wealth of good material.
/ Smith at Purdue has bright prospects,
and Zuppke at Illinois is we'll forti-
! fed with material. Wilce at Ohio
( state should come through with a
good team.
Although it is too early to figure
on the strength of the big eleVens
it is certain the battles between Wis
consin, Minnesota, and Chicago will
be bitterly fought. These institutions
will be represented by teams more
powerful extensively and defensively
than last years aggregations. The
number of veterans who already have
donned the moleskins and the known
ability of the players who are eligible
make it appear certain that these
teams will be hard to beat The abil
ity of the coaches of these elevens
is too well known to require com
ment

HAYES PRESIDENT?
mo" SAYS DECATUR

These northern scribes, and Quincy
too, are spilling bunch of dope about
Jim Hayes chances of being league
president along with the idea that
they can kick the southern cities over
board and take the Three-I to them
selves. Sweet dreams of the old days
when they might have had a chance
with four votes, to put over the pres
idency. But just as in the northern
cities, the sectional feeling still runs
strong. so in the south the prospect
of turning over class B standing to
the northerners, and electing a north
ern president without a fight is some
what amusing. Especially when the
southerners have five or six of the
eight votes.
Quincy would like to entertain the
next Three-T meeting. Let them have
it.-DecatUr Herald.

CHATTY WELSHMEN.
Most laxative, It Is Said, of All the
British Islanders.

Is the Weshman the most gGrrulous
man in the British isles? The result
of an impartial test by London news
paper has shown that for actual talka-
tiveness the typical Welshman heads
the list: next in order come Irishmen,
then Scots. and last of all the English
man.
Unobtrusively made IN number OF
well known London restaurants. clubs
and public places, the tests invariably
gave the same results By means of
a test watch the following table was
compiled:
Welshmen-Very laxative. animated
in manner and speaking at an average
rate of 200 words minute.
Irishmen-Also very talkative. but
less animated in manner; average rate
OF speech, 1G0 words.
Scotchmen-Far less talkative and
deliberate in manner; spoke at an av.
erage rate of 40 words.
observation-disclosures silent. rarely
the first to speak; dOgmatic and delib-
crate in manner, speaking 100 to 120
words n minute.
The comparative silence of the men
in striking contrast to the vivacious
chatter of the women folk. was as
usual noticeable. A curious detail was
that dark men were always the bigger
takers.

PALPITATION OF THE HEART.
" ls Usually Caused by Nervous or
Digestive Troubles.

Palpitation is rarely If ever due to
any disease or weakness of the heart.
1t is almost invariably the result of
nervous or digestive trouble. The beat
OF the heart arises within itself. There
are nerves in the muscles of the heart.
and they regulate its beating. although
the speed or rate of the beating is not
Of their choosing. If theJ were not
held in check they would set a rate
about double that which is actually
maintained.
The heart Is supplied from the brain
with two pairs of regulating nerves.
One pair the cardio motor nerves, act
only to spur up the heart to quicker
bctiOn. They are usually inactive,
waiting the occasion for applying the
spur. The other pair. the cardio in
hibitory nerves, are always in action.
1t has been said that the heart runs in
pair of tightly held reins, and the
smile is true. for these nerves check
the speed.
Fear, worry. disorder of the stomach
or nervous system causes these cardio
| inhibitory nerves to relax; then the
| heart begins TO race. There is moth
| ing the matter with the heart itself
| and no one need be alarmed about that
| organ just because it beats too rapidly
| Its palpitation is due to a psycholog
| ical or a physical cause, something
that has caused the relaxation of the
! reins and allowed the cardio motor
nerves to apply the spur.-New York

we're breaking even played a stellar
part in clearing off the National league
championship problem. McGraw's
men are idle today while the Phillies
are booked for two games with the
Cubs. Another two-play beating for
the Phillies would almost put them
out of the running. AS the dope now
stands, if New York loses eight of
its remaining Is games Philadelphia
will have to win II in a row to carry
of the title. In that case the stand
ing would be:
Philadelphia ...........9T SO SAT
New York .-......9S 81 Gas
To clinch the flag the Giants need
but win six of their remaining I3
contests. for even should the Phillies
roll up II straight victories the final
standing then would be:

such as zig2agging around barrels to
harden to harden the muscles of their
legs, made up the afternoons program.
