1t is generally agreed that there are too many laws. And yet the
making OF more will soon be in full force in nearly every state in the
Union, and also at Washington.
No matter what the evil, real n imaginary, somebody is ready with
"a proposed new law as a remedy. Faith in law-makng never dies, de-

FAREWELL, OLD YEAR!

Like a rapid-running river,
Time is ever rolling OIL
Ceaseless are it's changes ever,
Here today, tomorrow gone!
Infancy and prattling childhood
Passes on its quiet wave;
Onward, onward, ever onward,
To their final goal, the grave!
Manhood, strong and vigorous manhood,
Hastens on it's stream away,
Gliding swiftly, like a shadow,
Out os sight at close of day!
No return from this journey
To the former scenes of life!
Onward, onward, ever onward,
Through the calm, the storm, the strife!
But beyond these strange mutations
Ever mingling, day and night,
Comes the souls hopeful fruition,
Everlasting life and light.

OBJECTS TO HEAD TAX"

A matter that should receive the immediate attention of the legiIa-

PENN ELEVEN
IS FACING TODAY
A GREAT CRISIS
Much Improvement Will Be
Necessary in Order to
Make Good Showing
Against Dartmouth.
BY EDWARD r. BUSHNELL


Pennsylvanias football team today faces
about as big crisis as any team that
ever wore the Red and Blue. Completely
overwhelmed by Michigan and bruised
in body, the Quakers have but three
working. days in which to prepare for
Dartmouth an eleven which most of the
critics think Is even stronger than Mich
igan. If the Quakers do not play In
finitely better against Dartmouth on sat
urday than they did against Michigan,
they will be fortunate to escape being
utterly crushed.
Their only hope lies in the assumption
that the failue against Michigan was
due to inability to break up Mchigans
long forward passes, a weakness which
certainly can he corrected There is
measure of truth in this, for even Coach
Yost himself was astonished at the ease
with which these long passes were made
and the Generalization they wrought in
the Pennsylvania secondary defense. Had
Pennsylvania been able to furnish even
an average defense for these plays Mich
igan would hardly have scored more than
two touchdowns.
In Dartmouth, Pennsylvania will meet a
team which is stronger than the one that
wore the Green a year ago. Therefore, II
and and '' PennsylyanIa doesn't improve about 100
per cent, 1t Is hard to see how Red and
Just how green this Pennsylvania eleven iB
was shown by the way the backneld acted
when Michigan began to heaye forward
passes The Quakers were outguessed re-
peatedly. If Michigan wanted to throw
forward pass the Quaker backs would be pulled
up TO the line, and II they played back for
such passes then Maulbetsch would hurl him
self like a projectile into their line.
In this respect the game bore close re-
semblance to that between Pennsylvania and
Dartmouth a year ago. In that game Dart
mouth scored two touchdowns on forward
pa sses on which the Pennsylvania ends and
bnpl plra position,
mouth made two runs for toushdowns for
more than half the length OF the field. Michl-
gan did the same thing, only getting three
touchdowns In this manner. As the 1913 game
proceeded the Pennsylvania secondary defense

gains stopped.

COLE HANDICAP
COMMITTEE HAS
DONE GOOD WORK
Francis B. Warner Deserves
Much Credit-News and
Comment From Clubs in

The work of the Handicap Committee
of the Golf Association of Philadelphia
IS an exceedingly difficult task, but this
Years committee of which Francis y.
Warner, Philadelphia Cricket Club is
chairman, has done its work we'll This
was proven when the midsummer handl-
cap event, played in July at ST. Davids,
ended In a fve-cornercd tie for low net

that the handicappng has been well

The idea of handicap tournament is
10 give the man, no matter how high or
low his allowance may be- who plays n

OF discontent is heard when a high
handicap player wins prize, but as he
mas done nothing more or less than
achieved what the tournament was held
for, the murmur should not be coun-
tenanced for an instant. In nine cases
out of ten the handicap is just for it

The only time that players handicap
should be lowered is when it is found
that he or she is coming in with net
scores well into the COS. That means that
since the allowance was given the player

then the handicap should be reduced nc
cording to the average scores. But ham

work done by the North Hills Country
