krI 'N-tt't c WE ARE GLAD AFTER ALL THAT VIC write these Saturday Sayings, we were trying to figure a way to get out for the evening and suddenly we thoi about thia and we told our wife that we had to go down to tho office and write our Saturday stuff and we pre-. tended we didn't want to so and ey' erything. and now we have to figure some good excuse for staying away SO late and we are afraid we arn'l going to get by.
 THIS IS ONE WEEK THAT WE aren't going to mention Rene Cos grove. It seems that every week we have had him in this column, so just this once we aren't going to have his name in at all.
 WE ASKED ED KANE WHAT HE knew about real estate and he said: Lots" If you want to know how we feel about a pun like that just droI in and look Ed over on your way down town.
 WE FEEL KIND OF SORE AT THE linotype man at the Empire office He didn't put "By Jerry" in last weeks column. We want to be held entirely responsible for this when the Lord judges us.
 AFTER WE GOT BACK FROM tho states we heard a lot of people talking about the Island Ferry Go. SO we looked them up right away but we were disappointed. It was the Island Ferry company and not the Fairy Company. If Tom Cochran doesn't let us ride over for nothing the next time we see him we intend to finance Zeppelin Ferry Co.
 WE ARE ANXoUsLY AWAIT ing the Development Issue of the Elm pire. We have @ sneaking idea that there might be an editorial about us with our early history and how we gained fame by writing this stun.
 LAST SATURDAY AT THE BLACK Sheep Dance at Sheep Creek, Pete Hain gave us a stick of Chewing Gum and we had Q happy thot. We went around and begged four more sticks and then we took them home to our wife and we were able to explain what we did with the niclkle she gave us that morning.

 ALSO THERE WAS A NICE LADY there who said she read this stun every Saturday. and if she reads this she must know that we pity her from the bottom of our heart, but we can't help but thank her for the nice things she said about us

"chieF' Bender Slipping
 Refusing to retire with glory re- iusing to quit when the quitting was good Chief Bender finds himself to- doy "ancondihonaUy releaeed' cy the Baltimore Feds.
 For years one of the greatest pitchers in the land a hurler who won several pennants and worlds championships for the Philadelphia Americans, he slipped so quickly when once he struck the downward path that only @ few months inter- vened between his participation in the first game of @ worlds series and his ignominious release would have found 1t difficult to lose a game had he been the Bender of 1913.
 Entering the American league from the Carlisle College in 1902, he soon became one of the brightest pitch ing stars of the younger circuit. Pos sessed of almost perfect control and a mystifying assortment Of curves and slanls. he also owned an uncanny knowledge of the weaknesses of tho opposing batsmen and 1t was almost impossible to bunch hits off him. Except when his habits caused hun to show poor form he practically was invincible
 His strength. however. began to wane during the season Of 1913 and Connie Mack depended upon him Co save games started by other pitch CTS and rarely called upon him to start contests. The same practice followed in 1914. When preparing for the worlds series of last Octo- Der, Bender was dispatched to New York to watch the Braves and detect their weaknesses. Bender, however, was a victim of overconfidence and instead of watching the National leage champions, he put in the after noon on Broadway. The result was that the Braves hammered the famous Indian from the box in the first game of the series.
 Then Bender began to listen to the persuasive voices of the Federal league agents and Mack released him outright rather than meet the salary bids of the outlaws
 Soon afterward he signed with Bal timore and the Feds of Oystervllle thought the pennant as good as cinch- ed. But Bender was through.

 Cutts is arranging to carry out a special program Of compulsory exer- else for both young men and girls at the school this year. In an inter- view Cutts said:
 Every boy and girl in Purdue must spend @ certain part of each day in the open air and must take some form of outdoor exercise. will not stipu- late what exercise they shall take. they can do that for themselves. but they must abide by this new order. A student cannot do class work if he spends his entire time studying in- doors
 To Put Women in Charge
 Because os the fact that Purdue is essentially a boys school. l have not made any definite decision in re- gard to caring for the girls. but it is probable that in short time a ca- pable woman will be put in charge of the girls physical department.
