A GREAT FOOTBALL PLAY

Of all the strange and spectacular football plays ever pulled off, that Of a crafty and willy injun in a Harvard Carlisle game a dozen years ago, Oct
 31, 1903, probably takes the cake At
 the beginning of the second half the redskins had 50 lead. Harvard started the action by a long kick to Johnson on the Indian teams five yard line Johnson immediately be- came the center of a mass of strug- gling aborigines. Suddenly they sep arated and scattered in all directions, Dillon running straight down the field holding both arms up so the Crimson players could see that he did not have the ball. The Harvard men were dumfounded and gave a good irnita- ton of a bunch of beheaded chickens while they searched vainly for the man with the ball. Dillon passed straight through thee Crimson bunch until he confronted Capt. Carl Mar shall, of the Crimsons, who was COW ering deep backfieId. Marshall side stepped, but as he did so he observed big bulge in the Indians back Sus- pieion turned to certainty in Marsh aIIs mind in the fraction of a second, but it was to late. Dillon had made a full field run from kickoff to touch down without opposition. Dillon's jersey had been constructed with this end in view, and the whole play had been carefully planned in advance, and worked out exactly according to schedule. Redskin craft had proved superior to pa1eface strategy.

IDLE TALKS
The Town Critic

The other day, just for a rest,
l walked into a movie house
And sat beneath the cooling
Fan and watch the pictures
As they ran. And as the
Scenes of beauty told the story
Of the play, two women came and
Sat beside me there. The one,
A m middle-aged, had seen
The play ofttimes before and to
Her friend did tell the plot
From start to thrilling end.
And as she jabbered through the
Scenes my blood began to boil,
Until the efforts of the fans
Did fail to bring relief. l sat
Unto the bitter end, in hopes
She'd finish with her friend,
But other topics came and
Went until the final scene.
And as l left the picture house
This question to myself l
Asked, "Why do these public
Bores e"xist2' And to me then
The answer came, Each has
In life a niche to fill and
Helps us all to realize
The worth of true refinement"
