No Demand For It.

There does not seem to be any
demand for war with Mexico, or
any other country. The days of
universal peace are coming.
When such men as comprise the
Hague Tribunal, and who are al
ways advocating arbitration in
stead of war; when such men as
Bryan and Wilson try to avoid
war; and when such learned men
as Thomas E. Green, who lee
tured here at the Chautauqua
last year; when all these men and
many others advocate universal
peace, and tell of the horrors and
costs of war, there seems to be a
lessening in the demands for war
on any sort of a pretext.
Ten years ago war would have
been inevitable, if such condi-
tons had arisen as have come up
lately. But there is no demand
now, except from few jingoes
and fellows who expect to profit
from a war.

4D0G0LLEGES AND 5000
SCHOOLS IN FOOTBALL
A s9g GAMES PLAYED IN UNITED
STATES DURING PAST SEASON :
15G00O PLAYERS IN THEM

New oYrk. Jan. 21-Figures show
ing the popularity of intercollegiate
football during the season of 1918 have
been compiled by Park Davis, Prince
toms members of the rules committee,
and a noted sport statistician, Ac-
cording to his data 400 colleges and s.
600 schools throughout the country
were represented by eleVens last au-
tump. Approximately 4,323 games
were played. and 10000 players par
ticipated in the contests and practice.
Placing the average attendance al
these games as low as 900, the total at
tendance would not be far from thir-
teen millions.
The statistics record some unusual
features, INCLUDING long runs, field
goals. kicks, high scores and peculiar
plays.
The longest goal from the field was
a place kick of So yards, scored by
Carl Woodward, of Tulane university
The honor for the longest drop kick
scoring a goal goes to a school bay,
James NJ. Porter, of Mckenzie school,
who in a game against Hackley school,
sent the ball spinning over the bar As
Yards distant. The longest goal from
a drop kick by a college player in 1918
vas the 34-yard goal by H. A H. Ba-
.Ler, Of Princeton, against Yale.
The record for the greatest number
LOT field goals by a single player in one
game goes to Charles E. Brickley, of
harvard, who scored FIVE against Yale.
The longest run of the year was ac-
&C mplished by H. W. Richards, of Pitts
burg, who, catching Buchnell's kickoff
ran 101 yards for a touchdown. One
of the surprising features of 1913 was
the frequency of these runs from kick
off. Hitherto they have been so rare
that seldom more than one has ap
peared throughout a season. In the
autumn just passed not less than nine
occurred in the larger games. In anal
iysis of long runs showed that the ma
jority of them began with an intercept
ed forward pass.

MISS WILSON IN FIGHT
FOR THE TANGO

Starkille, Miss, Jan. 21.-Miss Ele-
amor Wilson's name is being used as a
leading argument in the fight here for
the tango, the one-step, the hesitation
waltz and other modern dances.
Headed by the local W. C. T. u,
many prominent citizens are urging
the city council to pass an ordinance
prohibiting the much-discusscd
dances.
The council, although thought 10
favor such an ordinance, is delaying
action in order to ascertain public
opinion
Students of the State Agricultural
and Mechanical College and many Of
the leading young women Of the place
are opposing the proposed ordinance.
Several OF the starkville society set
attended the ball of the Twelfth Night
Revelers in New Orleans two weeks
awo when the tango and similar dane
es were freely INDUCED in.
They returned with word that Miss
Wilson had tangoed and "hesitated"
with as much grace and liyeliness as
any one present and that what was
good enough for the daughter of the
president was good enough for the
young ladies Of Starkville.
Advocates of the dances are nov
conducting q very active camraiga and
the town is divided into two well de-
fired and almost equally influential
camps and interest is running higher
than in any political contest since the
days Of carpet bagging.
