Although handicapped to some ex-
tent by the now military drills, which
take UP a good portion of the even
ing. the yellow Jackets are hard at
work and Coach Riess expects to build
up a team that will make the other
teams in the association hustle. About
thirty men report every evening and
tacklinE, blocking the dummy, falling
on the bali and signal practice are
run through. Several scrimmages have
been held and the coach has obtained
a very good line on HIS men.
There are few heavy men among
the squad. but the lighter men are
showing UP wen and every one who
makes a place will have TO fight hard
TO keep it.
Copiey win hold down his same po-
sition as last year and Is working
hard to show the way to the other
fellows. Beayley will perhaps be the
other tackle. He was a second string
man year before last. but Is improving
rapidly. The guard positions will lie
between ringer. Richardson and Davis.
all of whom are large men. FrinRer
and Richardson were last years. scrubs
Davis Is also being tried out In the
back field. At center Gus Scott is
showing form and win make a strong
bid for this position, He is the brother
OF Bob Scott the star center of few
years ago. Sims is also playing good
bali at center. On the ends are Gum.
Bridgeforth and Sy1er. The quarter
back position Is worrying Riess most
Of all Talbot. Hardy and Riddick
are being tried out for this place. In
Weikel the coach has a speedy half
back. Lopez. Brandt, Newell and
Dickey are also showing form at half
At fullback are Tom Smoot and Davis.
Other men who are showing up well
are, Gf1Is. Gore, Saunders Rlanton.
Waters and Martin.
Although dealt a severe blow by so
many of last years men not returning

PLENTY OF TIME

Just a hint of the Importance at

Education Bill is conveyed in the an
nouncement that President Wilson
used four pens in signing the meas
IRE, the pens having been made es-
pecially for the occasion. at boys

The truth is that the fight to get the
bill passed was SO prolonged that there
was ample time for the making of any
number of pens with which to sign it.
The important thing. however, is that
the educators won, and the United
