The Yankees, with Babe Ruth a.

"A profit far in excess OF anything

Indians garnered in the vicinity Of

1t Is said that. because Harvard
really "points" for but two games,
those with Princeton and Yale, the
Crimson will be caught in midseason
and trimmed to a standstill. Those
inclining to this belief are eating up
the stupendous scores OF the center
College eleven this season. But
there's q trick even in that One
needs have his brains with him when
he dickers with the sons OF John
Harvard.
, When the contract was signed be-
tween Harvard and Center. 1t was
stipulated that prior to that game
Center should face no strong oppo-
lent, such as West Virginia. for IN
ttance. The ostensible reason was
that Harvard did not wish any acct
cent to rob the Center game OF It's
/. sttractiveness for the public. Cen
ter signed on the dotted line and
went about it's business.
LEADS THE COUNTRY.
{ Whether or not because of this
agreement. Center College is now lead
ing the country in point-getting. Three
games have been played. Center de-
feated Morris-Harvey, 10 to U. IL
took Howard into camp, 10 TO u
Last Saturday Transylvania was
smothered, 90 to 0. Center has scored
245 points in three games. an average
Of 81 per game.
But, never having seen Center,
we're willing to wager bent pin or
so that Georgetown could go out
right now and equal these scores
against those same elevens. Harvard,
meeting them, would have to hold its
horses or risk being Jailed for cruelty
to children.
Center College may have a wonder
full aggregation Of veterans, trained
In the trickiest sort of open-work
football. but Center has never in all
it's history faced Harvard's varsity
squad. Get that-Harvard' squad
Many another powerful eleven has
fallen before that huge squad that
sits huddled under crimson blankets
on the sidelines at Cambridge. The
sons of Dartmouth, of Brown and of
Carlisle know 1t. They have seen
their eleven beaten down by sheer
weight of numbers. and there is no
mercy in the makeup Of a Crimson
football squad.
q RECORDS DON'T COUNT.
(, Center's record, even for 1919,
means nothing to Harvard, save as
d
there is no nervousness among the
varsity players over the outcome of
Saturdays contest. They know what
the result will be right now. It's pos
sible that a few shrewd lads can
almost tell the score.
1t may be pointed out that West
Virginia was defeated, IA to 6, by
Center last season when greatly
weakened by its hard game at Prince
ton the week before. The Noun
taineers won from the Tigers, but
the victory robbed them of much of
their strength on the eve of tackling
An Unexpectedly powerful team.
& 1t may be pointed out that the only
other eleven OF any class bowling to
McMHlin and his pals last season
was Indiana, defeated IL to 8. early
in the campaign. If Indiana had not
suddenly shown life in its final game
and defeated the hard-worked SYRIA
cuse eleven, ~ to 6. even that Center
victory would have counted for little
as Indiana lost to Minnesota, 20 to 8

KAY LAuRELL DANCES IN HER SCREEN DEBUT

Recruited from the Zeigfeld Fol. lies" it stands to reason that dane ing plays an important part in the
 histrionic equipment of Kay Laurell, famous beauty of that organization, who makes her screen bow in Rex
 Beach's "The Brand" at the Palace Sunday.
 In her enthusiasm at the prospects of making so suspicious beginning in the cinema as the chance to
 dance in Rex Beach's photo drama,
 the petite beauty scarcely took cog,
 nizanee of an the possibilities the adventure offered. It never occurred | to her that the exciting scenes in an Alaskan dance hall would enlist her services as devotee of terp' sichore. The prospect of acting a
 complicated role absorbed her to
 the exclusion of all other consider. ations.
 When some of the scenes had been
 photographed. Miss Laurell learned that much would be expected of her dancing. She determined that she
 would infuse as much enthusiasm
 into it as she ever had on the stage.
 This explains the abandon with which she dances in dingy. smoke-filled
 hall in Alaska.
 Graceful beyond description, Miss
 Laurell entertains the crowd of
 miners as if her life depended upon
 it.
