CLOSE FINISHES
FEATURE FOOTBALL
PRESENT SEASON

New York, Dec. 8.-Notwithstand
ing the limitations imposed upon
eastern college football as a result
of the war, the struggle for individ-
ual scoring honors has been almost
a. close as in past seasons when the.
game was the principal feature of
varsity sport activity. Although
Quarterback Ingram of the United
States Naval Academy team finish
ed in the lead he was closely presseu
for the better part of. the fall by
several PLAYERS from other institu-
tons including Oliphant of the Ar
my; Conroy, .Swarthmore, Berry,
Pennsylvania and Whitehill Of Rut-.
gers.
Ingram scored 162 points for the
!, Middies during the season of eight
games which was considerably more
than a third of the total of Az
points credited to the Navy enabling
it TO finish second among the east
ern and southern COLLEGES from the
Standpoint of high scoring. His rec
ord shows nineteen touchdowns and
forty-eight goals from touchdowns.
Conroy scored the same number Of
touchdowns as Ingram butt the
Swartrnore player fell far short of
the latter's opportunities to kick
goals from touchdowns and while he
registered four, field goals his total
is twenty-threeE points short of that
of Ingram. Oliphant comes third,
with seventeen touchdowns; twenty
goals from touchdovns and one field
goal for total of 125.
Berry, of Pennsylvania, leads the
section in field goals having kicked
seven during the season, three Of
which came in the game against
Michigan. He scored but ten touch
downs and twenty-four goals there
from so that his complete record is
los. Whitehill, of Rutgers, is but
two points lower than Berry and one
point higher than Martin, also of the
Navy team.
Ingram's record for the 1917 sea-
son is two points lower than that
which Gilroy of Georgetown made a
year ago and just equals the 1916
figures made by Barrett, of Cornell.

Now that the football season is
over. the boys Of p. H. S. turn to a
new athletic sport. This is the fas-
cinating game of basketball. The
prerequisites for a good team are
good raw material and practice.
The interclass league has been
formed and the teams are practicing
hard. The varsity WY be selected
from the players in the interclass
league so all the boys are doing their
best. The games are played in con-
junction with the girls games.
There has been much discussion as
to the place for playing these games.
All the boys are in favor OF the Y.
M. c. A. but Coach Enlow argues
that the floor is too small for team
work and that real basketball can
not be played in such a scoop" as
he calls it.
The girls are still on the job in
athletics and yesterday the Sophie
more girls defeated the Freshmen.
The game was well played and both
teams deserve much credit.
The End Of q Perfect Season.
Last Monday nirht the Hi eleven
assembled at Hughey's restaurant
for a spread. This banquet was
given to the boys as small COM
pensation for their diligent work
during the football season of 1917.
Many yells were given and many
speeches were made. Then the crowd
marched out in lock step and dis
persed.
Popularity Contest.
The popularity contest, which has
proven such "a success in the past,
was well under way this week. Many
votes have ben cast and it is expect
ed that many many more viii be cast.

Maxine Reilly with Miss Velma Vii
lar a close second. Heavy voting is
expected this week. Don't forget to
vote for your farorite. The winner

EMPEROR NEAR DEATH.

a visit to Palmanova. in northern
italy. near Udine, whittier he was

swift current.
The emperor is said to be none the

The emperor was saved only by

the rest of the world. They
were long fed on the notion that
Germany was a superior natl
on, the German people the SUI
perior of other people and that
they should act accordingly.
With respects to organization
there was ground for the Ger
man boast but in a general way
the TeutonS merely delud-
ed themselves. Man for man
they are not the superior of
other white people. Else why
did they let numerically small
Ter number of Frenchmen hurl
them back at the Marine and
stop the advance to Paris?
Why did they let Englands
contemplate little army"
block their drive to Calais? If
Germany has such a superior
military machine why is it the
kaiser has been able to win only
when opposing smaller armies
or forces, like the Russians, in
sufficiently equipped?
Efficient in many respects
the German scheme has lacked
efficiency in a larger way.
They have been too contemptu-
Gus of other peoples and of the
rights of others. That was not
efficiency because it has multi
piled and unified German enc
mics to such an extent that a
German defeat is but a matter
of time. No scheme, private
or national, is sound that is not
based on justice and respect
for others. Before the war is
over this will be brought home
to Germans and they will learn
to their sorrow it was a sad
blunder for them to catalogue
other people as swine.

Prison guards had to shoot 10 ro-

cut up and only the fact that they
used blunt table knives prevented Sc

WHERE FIRMNEss COUNTS

n I is noticeable that the 1.
w. w. menace has been
greatly reduced since
Haywood and other leaders
were placed in Jail. The re-
suits secured show the neces-
sity and the merit in a policy of
firm handedness with reference
to all who try to thwart the
nation in its war plans. With
a real fight on his hands Uncle
Sam cannot afford to take
chances with those who would
stab him in the back or make
him stumble while confronting
the foe.

order to take care of the sol

that new camp sites must be Sc

there should be a chance for

in many respects, if not all, af-
fords an ideal place for such
