Yom Kippur Being
Celebrated Today

Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atone
ment, is being obesrevd to-day by
the members of the Jewish congre-
cations of the city. The holiday be-
gan at sundown yesterday and will
close at the same time to-day. Five
days from this holiday the Succoth
festival will be observed. This will
continue for eight days, according
to the Jewish calendar. In olden
time the Succoth festival was one of
the tree occasions of the year on
which the Jews made pilgrimages to
Jerusalem, to offer sacrifices of
thanksgiving for the harvest.
At noon to-day a special prayer
for the Red Cross was held in the
Kesher Israel temple. The service
was conducted by Rabbi Silver and
Rabbi Newmark. Rabbi Louis j.
Haas had charge of a prayer serv-
ice for the families of Jewish boys
who have made the supreme sacri-
flee in France. This service was held
in the Ohev Sholom Synagogue. Sim
liar services were also held in the
other temples. At the Chesuk
Emuna Synagogue Rabbi Romanoff
and Rabbi Abramson made the ad-
dresses. At all services to-day spe-
cial singing by a male soloist from
New York featured.

"On With Football"
Says Uncle Sam

Football programs for this
fall at colleges and universities
with arm student training corps
units will not be interrupted by
the War Department except
where they actually would inter-
fere with military training.
Protests which began to reach
members of Congress against the
action of an officer of the training
corps service in advising that
football schedules be abandoned
drew an official statement from
the War Department that no
such step had been authorized.
On the contrary. 1t was stated
that the educational institutions
would be advised formally to
continue their athletic schedules
without permitting them to cur
tail the military course,
This was tho brief response
from Uncle Sam to the thousands
of protests against doing away
with football this fall. Any school
with a. training system Is en-
titled to a representative team
and the Tech outfit expect that
military work will benefit the
football work, Great universities,
like Pitt. are looking forward to
very lively season, and the pros
poets are that football at the big
camps and training stations will
be even more popular than base
ball,
