Football, 'TheMside Game :;
Numbering Of Grid Players

that numbered players are so much
easier for the scouts TO spot IN early
season games In other words. the
numbers make Il easier for your fu-
ture opponents 10 get line on the
sort OF plays you are using. the CALI
bre OF the men that play on your
team. etc
The coaches are justified IN hold
ing out against figures. I suppose. but
when there Is such a widespread and
universal demand-and not a single
valid argument against Withholding
numbers from players-there IS no
reason why the coaches should not
capitulate gracefully TO the majority.
The Harvard coaches are not Har-
ward football any more than the rub
bers, the groundkeeper and the water
boys are Nor is the game for the
coaches, as they seem to think
The game Is for Harvard, and
that means the student body, the
alumni body and the teaching
body-au Of whom want players

they should be tipped of. When
Il Genes down to facts a coach
e. hired and given hts pay to
teach good, clean football TO the
candidates and TO set the best
results possible-Which means vic
tory.
And that doesn't mean that coaches
are given the arbitrary power to
make rulings on the thousand and one
things Indirectly connected with the
game OF which this numbering incl
dent is an Instance.
I put myself on record to this e.
feet because in the past two years
have been on both sides Of the fence
-as a football player and as a head
coach OF a small college team have

Personally. am very much f0r

However all this annual hubbub

JAPAN REALLY BACK NUMBER
Prove That the Chinese Are the
More Progressive.

1t may strike the western reader as
simply funny, but more than one Chi
nese friend has assured me that it is
the japanese people who are really
conservative. And they back up their
assertion by evidence other than the
way in which Japan has chung through
all historic vicissitudes, TO a primitive
theOcracy, John Dewey writes in Asia
Magazine. They point out, for exam
pie that a thousand years ago the Jap
anese borrowed the present style or
clothing and of household furnishing,
of sitting and sleeping on mats, from
China; that China has changed sew
eral times, moving constantly in the d.
rection of practical utility, of ingeni-
Gus adaptation of means to needs. The
Chinese cuisine is another argument.
1t is doubtless the most extensive in
the world in the variety of material
employed for food, and also the most
varied in its combinations. Academic
analysis may despiSe arguments drawn
from food, clothing, shelter and fur
nishings. But when one notes the va
riety and ingenuity of the processes
and appliances used in daily life and in
the crafts. one is certain that the Chi
nese mind is naturally Observant and
adaptive. But it seems unnecessary to
labor the question. Many charges have
been brought against the Chinese, but
no one has ever accused them Of stu
pidity. Their undOubted conservatism
Is something to be explained rather
than an explanation of anything.

"Rent Free" Houses.

At Llewelyn, Pa, there are GO empty
houses, which for years have stood I'M
tenanted, a veritable deserted village
in the beautiful valley of the West
Branch of Chester creek. Even the
war with its demands, failed to repeo-
pie the town. About a month ago some
of the houses were rented and jitney
line was established between the town
and Chester. Still there remained 6O
houses that were fast going into decay
by reason of not being occupied. The
owners conceived the idea Of having
the properties fixed up by giving them
rent free to workmen who would repair
them and take care of them. The only
stipulations made in selecting tenants
are that they be respectable and thrift
ty people who will take pride in main
tanning and improving the houses and
that they agree to make all repairs at
their own expense.
