HAUCHT0N SAYS BOB FISHER
 IS HARvARD'S GREATEST COACH
Veteran Crimson Football Expert Pays Tribute Man Who Took Green Football Squad and Developed
 Fighting and Intelligent Team

games was arranged nobody knew how good the Harvard team was go- ing to be- Neither did anyone know how good the other teams might pan out. Suppose Virginia produced an other Thurman and Brown came up from Providence with another Pol lard. It would have been a different story. But it was possible. And be- sides Harvard tried to book games with the Army and Colgate.
 But Fisher took what he was given and produced an unbeaten team. His team ran up 222 points, while it's op- ponents were able to score but 13 points. Princeton made 10 of these markers and Yale made the other three. And the Crimson goal line was crossed but once in nipe games.
 Harvard beat Bates 53 to 0, Boston College IT to 0, Colby s5 to 0, Brown ' to 0. Virginia 47 to 0, Springfield 20 to 0, Princeton tied 10 to 10, and the Crimson completed its season with a glorious. defeat of Yale, 10 to 8, the sweetest win of all.
 Fishers record vindicates all the unkind things that self-shielding g critic accused him of. His perfect IIdHhheSS WILL ILLS pldy CTS that confidence which cannot be gan. ed by the slave driving method. Fisn- CT was always above board with his men and constantly succeeded in making them feel ready to go to him for advice. They were not afraid of him. On the contrary, they really loved him and were pulling for him to the man. Captain Murray, speak ing for the squad, said ''that every man on the squad would go through fire for Bob Fisher to the last drop.'' And they would.
 All Harvard is now with him to the last drop. His decisive win over the Sharpe system was enough to do that. So if Fisher wishes he can sign con- tract with his alma mater for mary years to come.

STRANGLER LEWIS IS
 THROUGH AS WRESTLER

Strangler Ed Lewis. former catch as- -catch-can champion of the world, has no intention of quitting the mat. Quite to the contrary, the Louisville giant is preparing for a strenuous campaign this season. Moreover, he intends to challenge Joe Stecher for a return match at the earliest oppor- tunity and he believes that he can defeat the leading exponent of the scissors, held nine times out of ten, and is willing to back his opinion with real money, he says.

Ollie O'Mara., Former
 Brooklyn Player, Will
 Be Back In Majors

New York, Nov. 25-Brook1yn fans will be glad to learn that Ollie O'Mara, the blonde infelder, will be back in the big show again next spring. Ollie. however. will not re- turn to the majors as a member Of the Robins, but>wi1l appear in a Gin cinnati uniform. A few days after the 1919 season opened the Robins sent the the aggressive infelder to the Indianapolis club of the Ameri- can association and last summer, rlaying under the direction of Jack Hendricks, he was one of the stars of the strong minor league. O'Mara was released from the Robins chiefly because of his failure to hit, but with Indianapolis his stick-work was sen- sational, and at the close of the race he was among the organization 8 leading batters.

DUNDEE WASTES LOTS OF ENERGY IN BOUTS
 BUT IS STILL FAST

Although Johnnie Dundee was well beaten by Mel Coogan, at Newark, N. J., recently, the little Italian perform ed inpressively in one respect. As usual he burned up a world of en- ergy without in the least exhausting his boundless store. Dundee Is the physical marvel of the ring. His style of fighting puts a tremendous strain on the heart and lungs, and yet after ten years of it he is going along as strongly as ever. In the bout with Coogan, Dundee missed scores of frantic swings-and a miss ed swing takes more out of a boxer than 8 hard blow received-yet at the end he still was going at top speed and apparently as fresh as when he started. Any other boxer in the ring today would have been totally exhausted if he had used half the energy that Dundee expended.

Boston, Nov. 25.-Au hats off to Bob Fisher. The head coach of the Harvard football team stepped into an unusually large pair of shoes va cated in the Stadium by Haughton, the Peerless Percy. With a big squad of green, war-worn veterans to start with, Fisher constructed a smooth working machine that drove through a long season undefeateded and crowned their mentor with a laurel of victory over, Yale, the arch rival of the Contabrigians.
 The great ''P. D." acknofledges Fisher as the greatest coach Harvard ever had. Harvard this year has been unusuafyfortunatein
 been unusually fortunate in it's coach ing" said Haughton. Bob Fisher is as good coach as Harvard ever had, bar none. He is a wonderfully fine person-he knew what itw as-to earn his living before he came to college; he worked his way through class, captain of the freshman and varsity football teams. and was first marshal of his class at graduation, the highest honor to a Harvard man. He has gathered about him an un- usual group of assistants. and his coaching has been consisttly staedy, and sound. As for the players, they the green, but their possibilities and their fighting spirit were amply shown in the Princeon and the Yale games.'
 And Percy has said it all. Fisher came to Harvard when the football situationwas quite unsettled. Men were returning from the service from day to day, and the Crimson manage 1nent did not know just what kind of material would be ready when the whistle blew for practice.
 Fisher was selected to take hold of the situation, because he was of the best Hnesman ever turned out at Cam bridge, because he is a thorough and a hard worker, and because Haugh- ton and the rest of the Harvard ex- perts knew that he was the best avail able man for the job.
 His situation was difficult for many reasons. In the first place, his ma terial was green. But they were more than that; they were veterans of many battles in the war. Every player on the squad had been in the service. And when a man has been through the battles of Chateau Thierry, the Argonne and some of the others un- der heavy fire. it is a pretty hard thing to get him to give his best ef- forts to a lesser game, even football
 Then he had to get a corps oi coaches to assist him. This was an other difficult job, but Fisher was 8 pIugger. He induced ''WalIie'' Trum- bull, Derric Parnenter, Dick Wiggles- worth, Charley Coolidge, Harry Gardner, Bill Snow, Sam Felton, Jim

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 10.-More |
irrigation in eastern Kansas to supple
ment the rainfall will be advocated |
by speakers at the eighth annual
meeting of the State Irrigation con-
gress, which viii be held at Hutchin-
son, September Is and Is in connec-
ton with the State Fair.
Irrigation in the eastern half of
the state" says H B. Walker, irriga-
ton engineer at the Kansas State
Agricultural College and acting sec
rotary of the congress, where intelli-
gently applied, has been found very
profitable for the corn growers in. the
Blue Valley; the truck farmers and
/ potato growers in the Kaw Valley;
and the fruit growers in the lower
Arkansas Valley. More farmers
should inform themselves of the ad-
vantages of irrigation in Kansas"
The first day of the congress will
be devoted to topics which relate
more particularly to irrigation in
eastern Kansas. The second day will
be devoted to western Kansas irriga-
ton. These meetings will be held at
9 o'clock each day, in the Commercial
club rooms in the Rorabaugh-Wiley
building. The afternoons will be de-
voted to visits to the State Fair where
the delegates will have an opportunity
to see displays of irrigation machin-
cry and equipment, as well as exhib-
| its of irrigated crops.
The European corn borer, which
might easily do a million dollars
worth of damage a day if established
in the corn belt, is going to be kept
out of Kansas, if George A. Dean, en-
tomologist in the agricultural college,
can prevent. Mr.. Dean is in the east
attending a series of conferences on
| the control of this destructive insect,
which has already made its appear
ance along the Atlantic coast.
The borer, which in Italy, France,
and other European countries is one
of the most serious of agricultural
pests, attacks chiefly corn. 1t may al
so infest, however, sorghums, garden
vegetables, and other plants.
Again the United States govern
ment has selected the Kansas State
Agricultural College as one of the
institutions with which to cooperate.
Two research assistantships have
been established in the department
of agricultural economics in coopera-
ton with the federal bureau of farm
management. Two Kansas young peo-
pie have been selected for this work
Miss Blanche French of Hamilton,
one of the few young women ever
graduated from the college course in
agriculture, and Earl n. Hiestand of
Yates Center.
A war veteran with service in the
famous Rainbow division will have
charge of gymnasium work for young
men at the agricultural college this
year. The man selected is H. A. Lor-
enz, who won promotion from lieu
tenant to captain overseas.
He is a graduate of the Springfield
Y. NJ. c. A. School for Physical Edu-
cation, has taken two years of a
course in medicine, and has had sew
eral years of experience as a physical
director
