Yesterdays west-bound passenger
train over the Great Northern was
held up and robbed at a point about
five miles west of Fergus Falls, MINI.
There were eight robbers in the gang
and all were we'll armed. Two of the
men, it is thought boarded the blind
baggage at Fergus Falls, where the
train is due at 1880, and as soon as
the train was out of town climbed
over the tender and at the point of
r~evolvers commanded the engineer
and fireman to stop at a lonely spot
near the Pelican river bridge. Stop
ping at this place, the other men
bers of the gang rushed from the
woods and boarded the express car.
When the train stopped the conductor
and brakeman started forwarded to
ascertain what the trouble was, but
the bandits fired a number of shots
and warned them to keep back. The
express messenger was then ordered
to leave the car and while three or
four of the robbers stood guard the
others proceeded to blow the safes.
The local safe was destroyed, and it
is thought they succeeded in securing
considerable money, but the exact
amount cannot be learned. Four
charges of dynamite were applied to
the big safe, but it was found impos-
sible to reach the inner part of it.
The train was held for two hours, and
finding it impossible to gain access
to the big safe, the robbers departed
and started south. Two men who
stood guard over the engineer COM

Of the game when a touchbsck was
scored on q blocked kick. Steady
hammering at the Army line advanced
the bail to the point from which Notre
Dame scored. A slippery field pre-
vented Captain Oliphant, star OF the
Army team from performing In his
usual style, but he was nevertheless
responsible for most OF the Army
gains.
Army scored two points In the first
play. Having kicked off, Knight
blocked a Notre Dame punt, and West
Point scored a safety.
The field was slippery and end runs
were hard. The ball seesawed dur

All amateur rules are to be sus-
pended for those athletes who are
serving Uncle Sam. This Is the de-
cision OF the committee on legislation
of the A. A. U. headed by Judge Bar
tow S. Weeks. Whether or not this
will have any after effect viii be
known only when the soldiers come
marching home again to follow their
pursuits OF peaceful existence in the
United States.
Enlisted men In the army, navy.
and marine corps are to be permit
ted to compete among themselves
during the period Of the war without
endangering their amateur status,
even II competing with or against
professionals, provided the prizes Of
fered are not actual money.
Enlisted men are also permitted to
compete in public exhibitions as mem
bers Of teams against aIl-amateur
teams without the status of members
OF either team being questioned.
This amendment Is to be submit

ncials OF the Organization feel that
no line should be drawn between the
amateur and the professional when
both are serving the United States.
The clause regarding team compe-

amateur status OF the club or college

in the irst quarter to win It in spite OF
much unnecessary roughness in knee
tackling which sent one OF our best men
to the sldelines. The play Of the op-
ponents was 50 markedly rough in the
first half that our manager went to
them between halves to inform them
that unless they dropped that sort Of
football they would never be on our
schedule in the future.
Can't Fight and Play.
For the remainder of the game this
eleven played football and played It
with so much vim that we were most
fortunate In winning. All Of which
goes to show that the slogan Of George
Woodruff. the old Yale guard who made
Pennsylvania in football. Let the other

By SOL METzGER.

Coach Washington q Jefferson Eleven.
Football has made more progress
this fall than at.any time in many
years. Although there are not quite
as many college teams playing as in
previous years more men are partici-
pating in the game than, ever before.
This is due to the fact that football
has met with approval in the various
army camps and that more attention
is being given it by various under
graduate organizations in those uni
versities which have abandoned var
sity football during the period Of the
war.
Another point which has helped
football in various sections is the alb
sence, in the East, Of Harvard,
Princeton, and Yale from the fall
schedule. While this has unquestion-
ably caused a lack Of interest in the
game in some Of the largest Eastern
cities it has forced all followers Of
the sport to look elsewhere for their
fun. They have been surprised in
finding the game played at other IN
stitutions on as high a plan as it is
custOmarily played by the big
Three"
Indeed. this season has proven that
no set of colleges enjoys a supremacy
in football. The game is much the
same and is played as we'll In one
section as another. Coaches Of West
ern and Southern teams have pretty
well proven they know as much foot
ball as Eastern coaches
Fact is, this year they have gone
a little farther. The war has made
football democratic. 1t has broken
down the line of distinction, or caste,
that had caused some to believe that
the sport is highest developed In one
section.
we have learned much this season
that we have never known before.
Take the training table. for example.
Two years ago an Eastern coach
would have held up his hands In hor-
ror had he been forced to train his
men without training table.
At that time, when coaching the
West virginia team, I proposed the
abolition OF the training table and
was oyerruled. saw no reason for II
and never could see the point that II

too seriously and 1t smacked too much
of professionalism.

THREE STARS SHOW
ASGAROLINA Wins
FROM MARYLAND
By LOUIS A. BOUCHER.

Little Gurley, chunky quarter
back, suggesting memories OF the
red-necked Van Brocklin of other
days; Captain Homewood, heavy
capable tackle; and Fletcher,
speedy, darting hslfback struggling
his best with poor interference and
weak line, were the bright individual
stars Of North Carolina States tri-
umph over Maryland State, 10 to 6,
at Central Stadium. Without them
the contest would have been devoid
Of features.
Gur1ey and Homewood made possi-
BILE the victory for the Tarheels, while
Fletcher held MaryIand's opponents
to = field goal and a lone touchdown.

passes failed and q penalty drove
Carolina back, but Gurley kicked 4
beautiful placement field goal from
the 37-yard line and his team led 3
too.
Tken Comes Touchdown.
Five minutes later, after the ball
had zigzaEged a bit, Gurley punted
forty yards Maryland could not
advance and kicked to Hudson, a
former Tech High lad here, who ran
# back twenty yards. Gurley hurled
pretty forward pass twenty-five
yards to McMurray. the tall right
end, who travelled eighteen yards for
a touchdown. Gurley added the extra
point on the goal from touchdown.
Shortly after the second period
opened. Maryland got the ball on the
45-yard line and began 4 steady tramp
down the field. With Fletcher and
Mcdonald doine-Smost of the work,
Maryland pounded its way down the
field for first down after first down.
Twice the distance had to be meas

mained 10 to till the end of the con-

Park lads lacked the punch and their
repertory OF plays was too small to
take advantage OF the sluggish Caro-
lima forwards.
GurIey was all over the field. doing
by far the most spectacular work OF
the day. In the final period he was
injured but remained in the lineup.
Homewood was a pillar Of strength
on defense, galloped through Mary
lands forwards now and then with
the ball and his punting with the
wind was excellent.
Fletcher received slight support
