CHICAGO, Nov 23-Tte sneakins
suspicion lurked around western foot
ball campfires today that Illinois
and Nebraska, apparently the class
of the west this year, could have made
things mighty interesting for HarV-
ard or Dartmouth.
Mind you," says the west, remem-
bering what happened to Notre Dame
at New Haven, I'VE don't say Illinois
and Nebraska could beat them. but
! they could make the Precipitation
roll"
There is a dearth of cruel statistics
by which to rate the prize elevens OF
the east and west. The western sta
! tisticans prefer to forget what Cor
nell and Syracuse did to Michigan.
Both the hard hearted "figgers" and
officials who worked in western
games this year seem to come to an
agreement that Michigan was by no
means the best eleven west OF the
Ailghenies in 1914. They nosed out
the Michigan Aggies only 3 to o,
whereas the Nebraskans walloped the
Aggies "a to the following week

Stronger Than Western Teams.


There is small material for doping
out the respective merits Of Illinois
and Harvard on comparative scores.
Here 1t Is for what it's worth. Michi-
gan beat the Michigan Aggies. 3 to 0;
Nebraska beat the Michigan Aggies,
"a to 0; one week later. Nebraska Is
figured as being slightly weaker than
Illinois. Harvard defeated Michigan.
Z to 0, with Pennock and Mahan spend
ing most Of the time of the game on
the side lines. But one thing is Ger
tain. Illinois at her best must have
the power of the Prussian military ma
chine supported by eight Krupp siege
guns and cavalary screen to have
pierced Harvard's defense in Yale's
new bowl on Saturday. TO have
stemmed the Crimson onrush, Illinois
would have needed the Notifications
Of Przemysl, Maubeuge and Paris.
If you don't believe this, ask the
Yale team and the 10000 spectators
who saw the Harvard juggernaut
break the bull dogs back at New Hav-
en-. The week furnishes the end of ths
seasons football. On turkey day.

Two Ties Against Record.

Those two ties can be dismissed
with few words. Against Pennsyl-
vania State. l-arvard did not throw
her full strength. Nlahan, Hardwick
and Pennock were missing from the
Crimson lineup at least part of the
time. They were being husbanded
against injury and for the following
games that Harvard figured were
more important. Against Brown
Harvard sent an almost entire team
OF second string men, thus giving the
regulars a chance to witness Yale's
clash with Princeton.
Without exception, sporting writer's
for the first time in many, many moons
today are unanimous in wishing the
eastern crown on the Crimson. Which
leaves to the dopesters and post mort.
emers only the discussion of Harvard S
merits compared to those of Illinois
heir-apparent to the western football
scepter.

REFLECTIONS.

How did you enjoy your East
Tennessee bred turkey on Thanks
giving? You probably "bawlsd
out" your green grocer for "rob-
bling" you because he charged you
50 so or $500 for it. Did you
count among tho things to be
thankful for the fact that upwards
of half q million dollars of good
Louisiana money had to be sent
to Tenosssss to buy what you
could have produced at q greater
profit than the Tennessee farmers
realized on these turkeys?
And then another half million
dollars will 60 to East Tennessee
farmers for Christmas turkeys,
and perhaps still another half
| million for New Years dinners.
Aud still No tell the world we
have progressive farmers in South
west Louisiana. Men, brsthern-
aud sister suffragettes too - how
are We going to square these facts
with our loud claims?
Two or three years ago Texas
farmers mobilizsd q great army of
many thousands of turkeys and
thu Governor of the State headed
the hsrdsmsn who drove them in
to San Antonio to b prepared for
shipment to Western markets. II
snterprising lovers Of peace should
attack the embattled armies in
Northern France and Belgium on
Thanksgiving Day with q hundred
thousand fat turkey cock ready
for the spit, both armies would
cspitulate for Q day at least.
But if these patriots depended
upon Southwest Louisiana to fur
nish tho peace offerings in the
shape of fat turkeys. how long
would the poor soldiers have to
wait for their Thanksgiving din
nsr? Add yet We can produce
turkeys moro cheaply than the
farmers of Tennessee and Texas
can do it.
Can't we be farmers in 1915,
and produce . half million turkeys
for next Thanksgiving Day? The
Agricultural College of tho Louis
lana State University which, by
the way, the farmers of Louisiana
ought to require to DO endowed
with at least . million dollars of
permanent buildings and grounds,
has just added scientific poultry
man to ito staff. He would be q
good man for Southwest Louisiana
to keep in touch with.
