COACH RUEBER'S DEPARTURE
BIG LOSS FOR THE A, c.
Has Lifted the Athletics at the A. G.. to High Plane-Has
Won Large Percentage Of the Games With Other
Schools-Honored by the Faculty

With the close of the college year
the agricultural college will lose the
services Of Arthur Rueber. who for the
past four years, has filled the position
or athletic director and coach. Mr..
Rueber has severed his connection with
the college to engage in banking in
one Of the new towns Of eastern Mon
tana. His training for this new line
OF endeavor has extended over a num-
be of years, during the summer -vaca-
hon periods. The fact that Mr.. ,Rueber
is a graduate law student and has been
admitted to the practice of law, shows
that he is a man of c~apability who will
make as high a mark in a business way
as he a attained in college athletics.
Tha Art Rueber is a favorite with
the agricultural college faculty as. we'll
as with the students, was shown last
Friday morning in a very tangible
a Being summoned to the admins
tration building, ostensib1y to attend
a committee meeting, he found there
n less a gathering than the faculty.
AS Mr.. Rueber entered: the room he
was met by Prof. e. S. Keene, who as
faculty manager, has been associated
with him during most Of his term Of
athletic services, nj between whom.
there exists a particularly warm
friendship. Professor Keene stopped
the coach before he could be seated
and in al appropriate speech present
ed him with a beautiful watch fob, as
q token of appreciation from the fac
ulty.
Such an action is entirely unprece-
denied in the college and adds addi-
tional value to the memento. The
watch fob is a combination design Of
a fraternal order and the college mon
ogram, done in heavy gold and enamel.
1t is a beautiful piece Of workmanship
and a token Of regard that comes to
only a few.
In his record as athletic coach Mr..
Rueber has been particularly success
full. The following summary will give
an idea of the degree of success that
attended the teams over which he
has had supervision:

From the above outline, covering
the -four years of Coach Rueber's serv-
ices, it is evident that the A. c.. has
been successful in athletics to an ex-
ceptional degree. In basketball, par
ticularly, that winter college sport that
holds the entire attention of college
students from January to March, the
A. c. team has not only won 81 per
cent of her contests, but during the
season of 1912, she won every game
played with the conference teams of
North Dakota, Minnesota land South
Dakota. This achievement has never
been equaled in the northwest. The
A. c. Won state championships in bas-
ketball in 1910, 1922 and 1913. In
baseball in 1910 and 1911 the cham
~pionships were won by the A. C.
In bidding goodbye to Art Rueber as
COACH, the agricultural college r~ejoices
that h has attained so enviable an
LSCOEu dLu edCn STUDENT, EN-
ployee and the entire faculty. wishes
the success that they feel sure he
will attain in his new sphere, of action.
Mr.. Rueber has won a warm place
in the hearts of many Fargo citizens
outside the agricultural college, because
his gentlemanly demeanor, his clean
work and his fairness at all times. His
policy has not been one Of win at all
but he has lifted the athletic
department of the A. C. to a broader,
higher plane. During his regime, there
has been very little pickering or
wrangling with other schools. Win or
Coach Rueber and his teams have
always taken the result in a true
sportsmanlike manner. The coach
never "whined" over a. defeat, but went
work on his team to overcome the
weak spot.
He will be greatly missed, not only
at the A. c. but throughout. the city,
and he will always find a warm well
to Fargo IN his return in later
years.

Albert srnaIIey Robinson.

GH.58##&G bsIfGaagE
The sensational. sprinting Of
young Albert Smalley Robinson,
the student at Mercersburg Acad-
envy, has been the wonder of the
athletic world. He has just made
100 yards in 8 3-5 seconds, equal
ling the worlds record.
Robinson came INTO the lime
light this spring for the quarter
mile he ran in the prep school
championship at the University Of
Pennsylvania relay games on April
26. On this occasion, starting in
the ruck, he stepped the full quar-
ter I'M 48 3-5 seconds. The athlet-
lie experts YER tipped4off to watch
his running, and a hundred watch
es agreed on his time, at finish.
Coach Jim Curran said: This
was the fifth quarter-mile Robin
son ever ranin his life. I have no
hesitation in saying that the first
time that Robinson trains for the
quarter mile 1T will be good-by to
Maxey Longs record. I know this
prediction Will make the old tim
ers laugh. but SO did my prediction
after the Olympic tryouts last
June that Ted Meredith would
beat Mel Sheppard In the big race
at Stockholm.
Speaking OF the wonderful
times credited to Robinson at the
Pennsylvania state interscnolastic
games on May 3, Curran says: 'He
did both OF the performances cred-
tied to him-nar1elys9 3-5 seconds
for 100 yards and 20 4-6 seconds
for geo. I timed him myself. The
track was measured after the race
and found to be correct, hut there
was q slight wind in Rohinson's
favor-no more, though, than that
which favored the runners in the
9100-yard race ait the University of
Pennsylvania relay meet.

"Gunboat'' Smith or Jesse Willard,
though Burns, who was one of the
most successful lemon pickers in the
game, may keep him away from these
good men till he has pocketed some
easy money.
McCarty's death. the physicians say,
is in no way to be blamed on Pelky.
He died from a light blow on the jaw
which dislocated a bone in his spinal
column. That the blow was light is
proved by the fact hat it did not even
daze McCarty. The victim probably
had his head twisted at the. wrong
angle at the moment the blow was de-
livered.

The Washington Herald says
that Southern Democrats are thanking
their stars that the Republicans in
1897 did not put tariff on cotton, for
"had it been applied the subsequent
advance would have been successfully
claimed as the fruit of protectionism,
and suiliced TO develop strong Re-
publican party among the cotton grow
ers of the South"
Well, why didn't the Republicans
think Of itY About two-thirds OF the
American cotton crop, 10, 900, 600 or ~,
0OOOO bales, Is exported The only
cotton imported is about 100000 bales
from Egypt, which is used for special
purposes, and perhaps fourth Of that
amount from Peru for use as an adul-
terant in so-called "woollen" goods.
OF course an import duty upon cot
ton, an export crop, could not increase
the price, any more than it could upon
corn or wheat. But it does seem some
what remarkable that the Republicans
have not tried to create protectionist
faction in the South by putting a duty
on cotton. They did recently put a
duty on Philippine rice as grandstand
protection for the United States rice
plantations, regardless OF the fact that
the Philippines import millions OF dol
lars worth OF rice from Burmah and
Siam and do not promise within a GEN.
tury TO raise enough rice for their own
consumption.

No Money Required

In recent article commenting on
the efforts Of various organizations to
secure free publicity, an Illinois ed
itor made the statement that it took
money to run newspaper. Many 9TH
er editors are laboring under a sim
liar delusion, and for the benefit of
this class, Thomas w. Mayo, pub
Usher of the Record, st. Anne, H.,
pens the following:
ut takes money to run newspapers
What an exaggeration. What whop-
per. 1t doesn't take any money to run
a newspaper. 1t can run without
money. 1t Is not business venture.
1t is charitable institution, beg
ging concern, a highway robber. The
newspaper is child of the air, a
creature Of dream. f. can go on
and on and on, when any other con-
Germ would be in the hands OF the re-
cever and wound up with cobwebs
in the windows.
at takes wind to run newspaper;
it takes gall to run newspaper. 1t
takes scintillating, acrobatic magma
tion, half dozen white shirts and a
railroad pass to run newspaper.
But money, heavens to Betsey and six
hands around whoever needed mon.
ey to conduct newspaper? Kind
words are the medium Of exchange
that do the business for an editor
kind words and church social tickets
| When you see an editor with money,
watch him. He'll be paying his bills
and disgracing his profession. Never
give money to an editor. Make him
trade it out. He likes swap.
"Then when you die, after you have
stood around for years and sneered
at the editor and his little limerick
paper, be sure that you have your
wife send in for three extra copies
by one Of your weeping children, and
when she reads the generous and
touching notice about you, forewarn
her to neglect to send the editor fiji
teen cents. 1t would overwhelm him
Money is a corrupting thing. The
editor knows it, and what he wants
is your heartfelt thanks; then he can
thank the printers and they can thank
the grocers. Give your job work to
a travelling man, and then ask for
half rates for church notices. Get
your lodge letter heads and stationery
printed out of town and then flood
the editor with beautiful thoughts in
resolutions OF respect and cards of
thanks. They make such spicy read
ing, and you are so proud of your
local paper when you pick it up filed
with these glowing mortuary articles.
"But money-scorn the filthy thing.
Don't let the pure innocent editor
know anything about it. Keep that
for sordid trades people who charges
