w. & j.; Barton, Colgate; Sutherland,
Pittsburgh; Hoge, Princeton, aud
Black OF Yale, all have played far be-
yond the average. Each must be con-
sidered when the picking" day ar
rives.
An eighieen-year-old youth named
Henry is one of the leaders in the fight
for tackle choice. He is the Compound
w & j. linesman. Henry has been
smashing lines TO ribbons this year and
despite his buck has been under most
Of the punts. He is fast, powerful and
fearless.
Among the other tackles who are
notched high are Wheeler of Harvard
lThornhill Of Pittsburgh; Wall and
Farnum Of Brown; Horning Of Col
gate; Cotton of Dartmouth; Jewett Of
cornell; Ward Of Navy Jackson Of
Chicago; Weimann of Michigan; Ben
nett of Northwestern Koch of Wis
consin; Mathews of Pennsy; Mclean
of Princeton, and Seidel OF Pittsburgh.
The battle for end positions Is a
merry one. 1t involves Higgins Of
Penn State of All-American caliber, a
year ago; Baston of Minnesota; Bre-
los, Chicago; both Yale wing men;
Harte of Harvard; Carlson of Pitts
burg; Highley of Princeton; Merers,

doing stunts that merit them consider

American elevens.

of Yale, 50 far have given him ranking
among the greatest halfhackiug per-
sons ON the profesh. There isn't any
thing that LedoEe cannot du-and do
exceptionally well.
Andy Hastings, star Pittsburgh
backheld, has shown with especial bril-
lance SO far. He was ranked by some
as an All-American man in 1918. This
season he has played far beyond any
thing ever shown before. Unless lie

Hastings will take unto himself first

Casey, the Harvard backield find"
Is ranked us "a second Mahan." But
how will Casey show when he Is put
to the Yale and Princeton tests. Hor-
ween, another Crimsonite, is being
touted strongly up in Cambridge for
his iine work. Then there is Berry
the great Pennsy halfback, who, al
most unaided beat the powerful Penn
state crew.
McCrelght OF Washington and Jeffer-
son never fiashy player, has been ex-
hihiting in way this year that stamps
him as one OF the really great. Me-
Laren OF Pittsburgh is another star;
a plunging halfback that reawakens
memories of Wee Willie Heston. OIL
phant, picked by many last season, is
performing in the same dazzling man

Tin Can Is a
Health Menance

Who would have thought that the
tin can is a menace to the public
health? The expert malaria investi-
gators of the U. S. Public Health
Service have found, however that
discarded tin cans containing rain
water are breeding places for the
mosquito, which is the sole agent in
spreading malaria. A hole in the
bottom of the empty can might have
resulted in the saving OF human
life. Certainly it would have assist
ed in preventing a deblitatng illness.
Empty tin cans have no business
about the premises anyway, but If we
must so decorate our back yards, let's
see to it that the can has hole in
the bottom.

firm determination not to make a sep

follows:
''Petrograd, November 16, 1916.-Re-
ports spread abroad recently by the
press of certain countries of pretended
secret pourp. .rlers being carried on be-
tween Russia and Germany with the
object of signing q separate peace are
futile and make no impression on the
Russian government. The imperial gov

categorical manner that these absurd
rumors can only find force in enemy
countries.
Russia will maintain intact the in
innate union which binds her to her
valiant allies. and. far from thinking
Of the conclusion of a separate peace
will fight by their side the common en-

TN. OSBORNE TO STUDY
NAVY PRISON CONDITIONS
Will Undertake Investigation to
Recommend Reforms. Secretary
Daniels Announces.

Secretary Daniels announced today
that Thomas Mott Osborne, former
warden of Sing Sing prison. New York,
had undertaken to study prison condi-
tions In the navy, with a view of rec
ommending reformed system OF
prison administration. Mr.. Osborne
agreed TO make the study by request
of the Secretary. VINO is desirouS OF
applying reform methods in the han
navy stations.
There has been d gradual leaSening
of the more severe punishments OF
navy prisoners going on for some
time the Secretary said. Penalties
for over-stay Of leave and like viola
tions of regulations have been reduced
and the men given the opportunity to
make reparation for misdeameanors
which. under the old system. would
have meant their discharge from the
service or Imprisonment for long term
of years"
'The result of the movement" the
Secretary added. had already been
manifested. Against 500 men in navy
prisons today there were 1900 three
years ago. Discipline has improved
immeasurably. the number of courts
martial has been decreased. deSertions
are fewer and the men generally are
decidedly better satisfied with navy life
than before"
Mr. Osborne will submit Z report upon
the conclusion OF his study and this
probably will be made the basis for a
new code of disciplinary action for
navy men. The first study will be that
of the prison at the navy yard. Ports
