DR. Emmons offered resolution OPP
suggested use of metal boxes by the
street car companies. the passengers
putting the cash in the box and the
conductor having ample time to see
that all fares are collected. as a means
of making a o-cent fare pay both
companies.

fare when they board cars, saying
they have to have their nickels when
they patronize public telephones. BY
adopting such plan. he said. con-
ductors would have time to better
protect passengers and prevent ac-

time on every trip making up reports.

New Rules,

The annual bugaboo over chang
ing Intercollegiate football rules is
at hand, this time with one modift'
cation that seems likely to be pass
ed on favorably. II has been sug.
gested that a ball blocked from a
forward pass be awarded to the
team making the recovery.
The change seems to be a sane
one and should 1t be sanctioned
will add another thrill 10 the game.
1t will likewise add TO the duties
of the defending. team, for not only
will It be compelled to cover the
receiving end OF the play, but 1t will
have an added incentive for charg.
ing through and stopping the throw.
1t likewise means that the defend
ers will have two chances at gain
ing possession OF the ball-one by
blocking and then recovering the
ball, the other by intercepting the
throw.
Much publicity has also been Civ
en- the yearly howl to eliminate the
goal from touchdown, the principal
claim being that 1t oftentimes de-
cides the outcome of game and
it's success or failure depends ell
tirely on a single individual.
1t would be unwise to cut out the
goal that follows the scoring OF a
touchdown. The football season is

Rumon Out.

A story out OF Morgantown over
the wires last night intimates that
there may be a change in the foot
ball coaching stan next season.
The basis OF The rumor is the fact
that the athletic board failed to
name a coach at a meeting last
week. This, however, is not I'M
usual and the story may prove TO
be nothing but a rumor. AS far as
we are concerned we do not care
to make any comment on the sttua-
ton, reserving any comment until
a decision is reached by the ath-
letic board. The coaching ques-
ton is a matter for the authorities
at Morgantown to decide. They
should know the situation better
than any other person and will
no doubt act In accord with their
best Judgment. Perhaps there
should be n change in the coach.
ing staff; perhaps not. Let STAINS
bury, Jackson and Hartley work
the matter out without interrer'

lns. "Re wanted to play out the
season because It was his last ap-
pearanca in athletics for Notre
Dame, He hated to give 1t up"
GIpp's father and mother and
his brother, Matthew Gtpp, Of
Kalamazoo, Mich, were at his
bedside. The latter declared he
was satisfied the stars illness was
not due to too strenuous football,
''Those tonsils have been both
ering him for years." said the
brother. He added, with pride:
1.-THE doctor says George would
have been 80 per cent better II
he'd had those tonElls out before
he played!"
Notre Dame students and foot
ball coaches of every team Notre
Dame has played cannot imagine
Gipp being so per cent better. II
he was so per cent deficient, his
opponents would have been sorry
to see him when he was good!
Like five other members Of the
Notre Dame varsity team Gipp
never played football till he came
here. He just didn't bother about
football when he went to high
school In Calumet, Mich. He was
crazy about baseball and though
he was a bit delicate as q young
ster, according to his brother. he
always carried around a baseball
glove In those days.
Now, on the heels OF his foot
ball triumph, an offer has come to
Gipp to get into major league
baseball with the Chicago Cubs
next season. He's an outfileder.
Gipp, who is tall, rangy and
speedy and "a years old, is an all
around athlete. Besides football
and baseball he's a star at hockey
a sprinter and champion at bill
lizards. And he recently won Q
gold watch as a dancer.
Besides that he's crack in the
classroom, He's taking a Law
course.
Coach Rockne discovered by
accident that Gipp could Play foot
ball. Somebody caught him doing
some marvellous kicking one day
They induced him 10 get into {
football suit. And in his freshman
year he put one between the goa
posts from the 62-yard line.
All over the country they're
picking Gipp for the All-Americar
team. He is hailed as Notrt

play, no matter how it tortured
him.
Three days after the Northwest
crn game, Gipp had tickling in
his throat. 1t was tOnsllItis. Then
came pneumonia. Gloom hung
over Notre Danes 1000 students
as bulletins from the sickroom
were anxiously read.
Some people thought GipD's life
was in jeopardy because of his
bulldog determination to play IN
spite Of his injured shoulder. AS
matter of fact, physicians said
there wasn't any connection be-
tween his illness and football.
Nevertheless, Knute X. Rockne
the football coach, is sorry he
weakened under Gipp's pleadings

That's the way everybody feels
about 1t at Notre Dame. So Gtpp,s

The boat appeared to be unoccupied,

officials today estimated that gold
exports for 1920 may reach 100000

said, II gold shipments would far ex-
coed that total.
Tabulations on shipments OF the
precious metal abroad show that
South America gets the larger share
Practically one-third OF gold shipped
since January / has gone to con-
sisnees In Argentina. Almost equally
large shipments went to China and
Japan.
The steady drain upon American
gold supply Is but slightly offset by
imports. Imports scarcely amount 70
one-eighth OF exports.
Federal Reserve Board officials saw
no occasion for alarm for the heavy
export record, now being steadily
maintained. Officials pointed to latest
