Tad Jones Crowned
King at Mem Haven
Dadmun Praises
the Yale Eleven

New Haven, Nov. 2e.-Before ieaV-
ing here to-day Captain Dadmun OF
the Harvard eleven said:
"The idea that We didn't expect
such a fight from Yale is foolish, for
we did. Yale's whole team played
well, and a. usual we're ready for
any break in the game. This was
one of the games that you can count
as having been won on your own
misplays. and Of course you know
what mean.
"The Harvard team played a hard
game, and We could say great deal
about Casey's being called back, but
we won't. do believe, though,
that the officials should have been
able TO point out the man who they
said was guilty of the holding which
cost us a touchdown. He couldn't
do il when I protested, and OF course
il was disappointing. The officials
word is law, and there was nothing
TO do but smile and try TO make 1t
good"

NEW RECORD SET
IN HARLEM RUN
BY CHRISTENSEN
Former Chicago Athlete Shows
Speed-Weiman Victor
in Race

A fine performance was made by
Christian Christensen, formerly OF
Chicago, in establishing new course
record in the weekly handicap run of
the Harlem Athletic League, held from
the Glencoe Athletic Club yesterday.
The Dane competed from scratch, start
ing four minutes behind the first pack
to be released, but he finished eigh-
teenth out of field of sixty-one start
ers. His time of 25:52 clipped 36 sec
onds from the old mark.
Eddie Weiman, of the Morningside
Athletic Club, broke the worsted a
winner, with Frank C. Dugan, a St.
Joseph's runner, second. Both com
peted from the $3.50 handicap mark, and
engaged in spirited duel until Wei
man sprinted away in the last quarter
mile. Sam Keely, another Morningside
member, was third.
Six clubs finished teams, the Morn
ingside athletes being in front with "a
points. They were followed by the
Harbrook, st. Joseph's Young Mems As
ISOLATION, Glencoe, Macombs and Alpha
clubs, in the order named.

athletics on the college faculty is an
indication OF the loudness Of the call
to- retain him and 70 extend his inhu-
ence.
Some Of the principles for which he
has stood during the last fall have
been:
Rigid medical supervision Of ath-
letes. with the elimination OF every
unsound player. whether injured or
liable 10 injury or illness.
LOYAL support Of the athletic teams
by the undergraduates, with public rep
1imand of undergraduate or alumni in
difference. wherever detected. Careful
observance Of the training rules, with
the prompt removal from the squad OF
any PLAYER violating them.
A training code not technically Sc
we're. but reasonable and liberal when
compared with the traditional training
system at Eastern universities fifteen
years ago.
A spirit Of enthusiasm, an alert men
tai attitude by members Of the athletic
squad.
Perfect frankness in his relations
with every one.
Frank with Rush
Illustrating this last principle, Joncs's
meeting with SPEEDY" Rush, the
Princeton coach. a week ago is quoted.
Rush greeted him in the football dress
ing room at the Princeton gymnasium
and soicitously inquired if the Prince
ton hosts could do anything to their
Yale football guests to make their stay
in the football headquarters comfort
able. at the same time abiding TO the
game Of the afternoon. Jones respond
ed by saying frankly:
"lf we get our share of the breaks
Of the game you will find Yale right
there
Jones was made head coach at Yale
when the overturning Of the Yale ira
dition and system that "the captain is
king" occurred. Captain Black has not
had the decision to make of the selec
ton of his head coach or of the foot
ball coaching staff. The Yale captain
for next season will not have this de-
cision to make. Jones's staff next year
will be chosen by the new Yale Athletic
Council, but il is reasonably certain
that there will be almost no changes.
DR.. Billy Bull has been Yale's back
field coach and one of the medical at
tendants Of the eleven for several sea
sons. DR.. Arthur Brides and Clarence
Alcott have been remarkably successful
as, respectively, Yale's guard and end
coaches the last season. That an effort
will be made TO induce them TO return
another year is certain. Incidentally
both Alcott and Brides were members
of the last Yale eleven which, previous
to yesterday, scored touchdown
against Harvard.

Along the Sidelines
BY GRANTLAND RICE

football is getting to be as much a
professional proposition as big league
baseball. This doesn't apply to the
players themselves, who have no
thought of gate receipts and who are
in no way affected by the size of the
collected bank roll.
So far Brown, Pittsburgh and the
Army are unbeaten in the East. But
Pittsburgh and the Army can draw
easier breaths. They don't have TO
meet Colgate for final test.
The fibre of the Yale team this sea
son was far beyond the normal. No
eleven without remarkable stamina
could have faced such a schedule and
then finished the final game as aggres-
sive and as alert as ever, with only
one substitution needed. Yale took all
the bludgeonings that Fate had to give
and then went on ahead and won.
In regard TO some Of the complaints
and squawks that have come from GER
tain psrtisans of even winning teams
the attitude of Princeton has been
more than commendable. Princeton
despite her keen disappointment, had
no kicks, no complaints, no plaintive
cries, TO make, which is proof of the
fact that she knew how TO lose in a
sportsmanlike way.
Yale fought a great battle on Sat
urday, but the statement made by one
writer that yale outfought and out
gained Harvard" hardly stands. Har-
ward fought as courageous and as
valiant a contest as we have seen this
year and her spirit, against impending
defeat. was remarkable when il is con-
sidered that she had nine compare
lively new men under fire.
They speak about the prejudice and
unfsirness" Of baseball fans. The
average baseball fan is a wooley, un-
bleating lamb compared to the average
football partisan. No team has re-
ceived fairer treatment this season
than Yale has from the football writ
ers. Yet one Yale camp follower called
up last week 70 enter a vigorous pro-
test about the unfair way in which
Yale had been treated by the New York
papers He expressed this protest as
coming from the Yale coaches, team
and student body-a statement which
all Yale men we have met since assert
is absolutely untrue. ut is hard on
Yale" one remarked, ITO have to stand
for fanatics who in no sense represent
Yale" Which is true enough, there
being any number Of people in this
world with vision thicker than the
back OF Pullman seat.
Here's one freak point from the
Harvard Princeton. Princeton and
Harvard games. Ia these three
contests p points were scored en-
bracing two touchdowns and three field
goals. All 22 points were almost d.
rectly attached 10 errors-either FUN
bles or poor kicks. No team got in a
position 70 score and followed this up

TWENTY THREE MILLION
STUDENTS IN u. S
Largest Percentage of Attendance in
The WOrld-NatiOn Spends Billion
On Education.

WASHINGTON-There are 23,50O,-
600 persons attending schools of some
kind in the United States in 1916, nc
cording to estimates of the United
States Bureau of Education. "This
MEANS declares the annual report of
the commissioner of education, that
approximately twenty-four per cent
of the inhabitants of the United States
are attending school, as compared
with eighteen per cent in Great Brit
ain, seventeen per cent in Fran &c.
twenty per cent in Germany, and a
little over four per cent in Russia ="
The bureau points out, however, that
the result is much less favorable to
the United States if daily attendance.
rather than enrolment is taken as
the basis for comparison. since some
of the other nations have better at
tendance and a longer school term
than the United States.
The report analyses the number of
teachers in the United States, showing
that of the 100000 teachers, 10000
were men and 537 900 women The
number of men teachers has increased
very slightly since 1900: the number
of women teachers has almost doubl-
ed. In public elementary schools the
number of men teachers has decreas-
ed twenty per cent since 1900, while
the number of women teachers has in
creased eight per cent In 1900
teaching positions in public high
schools were evenly divided be-
tween men and women. At the pres
ent time women Outnumber the men by
5000. The average annual salary of
all teachers is 1928. The figure is
highest in the east and north Atlantic
states, with 5000 and 1896, respective
ly, and lowest in the south Atlantic
states, 1929. 1t varies from 1924 in
Mississippi to SS71 in California. and
$941 in New York.
Expenditures for education in 1914,
partly estimated, totaled close to $780,
100000. An estimate, making due al
lowance for the intervening two years
and for items necessarily omitted,
would easily bring the nations cur
rent educational expenditure to bill
lion dollars.
