ing of this finished, winning team.
The bruises on their bodies or injur-
les sustained on the field of scrim-
mage are received in order that the
more powerful men of the Varsity
squad may have line and backfield
of human beings to charge through.
The new play which won the long gain
and touchdown was a playmfwypao
and touchdown for the winners was a
play which was perfected by using it
against the scrubs. The scrubs,
knowing what was coming, broke the
play up time after time until the Var
sity-always eleven picked men who
are better physically than the scrubs
or at least are eligible to compete on
the football field in intercollegiate
games-perfected it. 1t was this
squad of scrubs who made the new
guard fight and fight and fight to hold
his place so that now he is feared by
all opponents. 1t is just this reason
that he has played such an extra good
defensive game.
But these scrubs, they are never
cheered and in fact are little known
by the football rooters. They are men
who have been battered and bruised
IN the field to make winning team
and yet go through school unhonored.

talk. But without lawyers. If there
is no appeal to the supreme court
within ten days after the commission
er makes his decision, what he rules

Such method is fairer to the EN-

sive than the old court system. There
is no question but that it is better for
the employe. He has no lawyers to
hire. The commissioner works quick
ly. The employe is out not one cent.
And the money he gets is spread out
over a period of weeks and years
and not given to him in one lump
sum to be spent foolishly.
More states should follow Connec-
