Should Strengthen League.

In the opinion of representatives of
organized labor in the United States.
the labor provision of the league of
nations covenant should strengthen.
II fully carried out, the general
principles of the league of nations
The league of nations has for its OBJ
Ject the establishment of universal
peace. After stating that such peace
can be established only if based on
social justice the covenant admits
that conditions of labor exist in
volving such injustice, hardship and
privation to large numbers of people
as to produce unrest so great that
the peace and harmony of the world
are imperiled." If the general prin-
ciple set forth in the labor pro-
visions of the covenant are fully car
ried out by the members of the
league of nations. it is recognized
that the general principles of the
league will be so far strengthened.

Harry RObb stars.

Some OF them are outstanding figures
in football doings of former years while
others were making their first bids for
fame Harry Robb, who starred as a
member Of the student army training
corps at Columbia last fall, working on
the quarterback job, added a bit of lustre
to his already sparkling record Bob
Higgins, veteran end and All-Amer-
lean selection, behaved for all the world
like his reputation would warrant.
But In addition to this pair at least
two or three more of the victorious
forces displayed stuff that means more
room in the gridlron spotlight for them
from now on. Consider the case Of young
Mr.. Conover who snaps the ball at
centre when not otherwise engaged. This
youth gathered in the pigskin after a
disastrous tumble by Drummer Just two
yards short of PENIS goal line, thereby
laying the foundation for touchdown,
which resulted a bit later
Also the work OF Brown at left end
was something Of revelation. With the
able assistance OF Ben Cubbage, a Phila-
delphia lad, young Brown, was not long
in convincing the Penn backs that strolls
in his general direction were costly and
improbable enterprises Only once or
twice during the entire conflict did Penn
manage to turn Browns flank for any
gains at all and the debit side OF the
ledger on such attempts stood out
notably,
As though II were TO prove an Ill
omen, the toss Of the coin went against
Capt Bert Bell OF Penn for the first time
this season. Higgins elected to defend
the west goal. r Miller kicked on for
Penn and the frolic was on, The Red
and Blue defence held vigorously from
the start and State was unable to make
any impression in Its attempts at rush.
