The Leek or the DaffOdiI2

There are those today who maintain
that the Welsh national emblem is not
the leek, but the daffodil Both 1eek
and daffodil are known in the ancient
British tongue as "cennin." and it is
held by those who favor the daintier
flower that owing to the similarity of
name the two became confused and
that Shakespeare's influence, coupled
with the Englishman's delight in max
ing fun of Taffy and his leek, served
to perpetuate the error. Be that as it
may, the majority of Welshmen have
agreed to wear the leek as IAN honor
able badge" and neither Saxon banter
nor the indefniteness of the historical
data will avail to dislOdge an ancient
and a national custom.-London Mail

NEW YORK. Dec. 12.-Although the
majority of the eastern college foot
ball schedules for the season OF 1917
are stsl in the making 1t II evident
that intersectionAl games win be fea-
tured to Z record extent next Autumn.
The popularity OF these contests
proved one Of the outstanding features
OF the past fall and it Ia certain that
they will be duplicated on q larger
scale next year. II various rumors
and reports have any basis in fact not
only will there be more of these inter-
sectional games. but the larger and
more important colleges Of the east,
middle west and far west will appear
upon these schedules Of teams many
hundreds of miles removed from their
own campus
Whatever next seasons play may
bring forth in the way of victory or
defeat, the eastern college elevens
have no reason to be ashamed OF their
records made in the intersecttonal
gridiron struggles Of last fall. During
the months of October and November
eastern teams participated in Is inter-
sectional games against southern or
middle western elevens, winning fif-
teen. tying two and losing one.
In six games against the middle
west five were won and one lost,
when Michigan nosed out Syracuse by
a score of II to Is. In these six con-
tests the eastern elevens rolled up q
total of 103 to 81 points. Michigan
was the only team to figure in more
than one game. the Wolverines play
ing three, losing to Penn and Cornell
and winning from Syracuse.
Against the southern teams the east
did still better All told twelve games
were played. of which ten were won
and two tied. West Virginia held
Dartmouth to to Z score and Rut-
gers played Washington and Lee a 13
to 13 tie game. The total number Of
points scored in the International con-
tests were east, go; south, SO, making
the aggregate for the Is games: east,
1913; opponents, 100. If the University
of Pittsburgh and Georgetown univer-
sity are considered as eastern comb
nations the score can be increased
still further while if Georgetown with
