OFFER FITZPATRICK
SUPERVISING JOB
Yale Graduates Willing to Pay
$4,000 to Former Peerless
Football Star.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2t-Johnny Kill
patrick. one of the greatest football ends
Yale ever had, and n member of that
ail-important committee appointed to
select a head coach to succeed Frank
Binkey, Is wrestling with q temptation
He has been offered the position OF
supervisor of Yale athletics at n salary
OF not less than $4,000 a year, which
will be underwritten by Yale grad
uates.
The decision may be made any minute,
and the announcement will follow
quickly, that Is, II he accepts the call
and the responsibilities entailcd.
In some respects Mr.. Fitzpatrick would
assume the place which Walter Camp
held so long to the advantage OF Yale
and Yale athletics. and in all proba bility
would become a member Of the faculty.
Last November, when Yale football
was stepped in Stygian gloom and Tom
Shevlin responded to the last call he
could ever hear from Yale, fitzpatrick
was among the eight or ten other
coaches who also went back to do what
was possible to save distressing sea
son from hopeless failure. He ana
Howard Jones took charge OF the ends
and in the short space of seven or eight
working days did wonders in bringing
about some improvement.
This Is mentioned to show that his
usefulness would not be confined ncccs-
sarily to directing the broad policies.
or in any case to show that his intimate
acquaintance with the practical side OF
| coaching would aid largely in forming
and carrying out those broader policies.
To be "A real leader 1t is necessary TO
| know and appreciate what it means to
be in the ranks.
1t Is hoped for the sake OF Yale that
Fitzpatrick will accept. There Is work
/ to be done and the sooner 1t begins the
! better for all concerned. The selection
| Of q head coach for the football eleven
! is only one step in general Seorgani-
! cation that seems necessary II Yale is
| TO take the place it held so long in In
! tercOlleuiate sports.

One OF the most satisfactory
poisons for use in killing ground
squirrels is grain treated with
PHOSPHORUS. This proves very
satisfactory IN the early spring
because IL is not affected by mois-
tnre. The following method is
followed in preparing the grain
for use.
. Steep ten gallons of oats in wa
ter for from one to one and half
hours. The oats should begin TO
swell before being removed from
the fire. After the oats have been
removed from the fire, the water
is poured off and two pounds of
sugar and two pounds of salt are
added and mixed thoroughly with
the oats. Next make paste by
adding two cups of flour 70 one
gallon Of water. Bring this to
bnbbling boil and add one-fourth
pound Of PHOSPHORUS. After this
is stirred thoroughly for some
time, it is added TO the oats and
the whole again thoroughly mixed
for ten minutes. The oats should
be applied soon after being treat
ed and the above quantity viii
treat from 200 to $50 holes twice.
The poison should be applied
very early in the spring when the
squirrels first appear.

our ERRATIc MOON.
Science Now says, as Shakespeare
Noted, She Is 8 Wanderer.

There is nothing alarming IN the
report Of the astronomer royal Of
Great Britain in charge Of the ia
nous observatory at Greenwich, on
the Thames, few miles below Lon
don, that the moon has been guilty
Of insistent alterations during the
last several decades, though some
Of the interpretations Of what he
said IN that report, made annually,
would be quite alarming II they
we're scientifically exact.
Shakespeare, usually more cor
rect in astronomical references than
other writer's Of his time, merely
mentioned what every one else knew
when he spoke Of the Inconsistency
OF the great satellite Of earth ms
changing nightly in her circling orb,
but he showed a much deeper appre-
citation Of those lunatic alterations
when in ~Othello" he excuses an
action Of one ST his characters in
the words:
u Is the very error or the moon;
She comes more nearer earth than she
WAS wont
And makes men mad.
Every month the moon exhibits
the simplest phase Of her aberra-
tion-that when she is on the side
Of the earth toward the sun the at
traction Of the latter vast luminary
tends TO pull the moon away from
the earth, while when the earth is
between the moon and the sun, so
10 speak, the double attraction
brings our satellite nearer to the
Earth.
There are many other pcrtnrba-
ions Of the moon which have never
been explained with mathematic
precision. As one scientist has said, /
The lunar theory is not yet ideally
perfect" Consequently even the
.losest 81 lunar observers may he in
'rror in regard 10 certain Of the
phenomena Of the activities Of this
y FAR the largest Of any 81 the nu-
nerous satellites Of our several
'laness which are favored with
moons, her diameter being approx
aately one-fonrth that Of the earth.
