. QUESTION AND AN ANSWER

~ EVFRAL, men who are accustomed to look for the de
fects in any plan for community effort, some OF whom
~ make an honest effort to find them in order to nix them
have asked a question about the new hotel that Is pert'eW"
This question Is.
If there is as urgent a necessity and as favorable an
openipp for a new hotel here as is asserted, why has not some
individual with the money grasped the opportunity?
The answer is that hotel construction IS seldom under
taken by individuals, save occasionally when some individual
likes to engrave his name on the commercial records OF a
city. Hotel construction is nearly always under corporate
auspices and the vast majority of successful hotels originate
in popular stock subscriptions.
Hotel construction and operation fall into a class OF bus
mess that stands alone. The number Of men of means act
lively interested in hotel construction is relatively small
Before these men are the most favorable business openings
and most promising opportunities Of a whole nation, They
have their pick of the field and naturally they choose those
openings in larger cities where rewards are bound to be i'm
mediately larger.
The housing shortage in the United States begins with
hotel shortage There is not a city or large town in Amer.
lea today whose hotel facilities are adequate. This is true
of New York. San Francisco, Palm Beach, Portland, Kan
sas City. New Orleans, Detroit, Go where Won VIII. 1t IS
difficult to find any city with ample hotel room.
The demand for hotel construction has been and IS
enormous. Every chamber of commerce in the country has
been Offering to practical hotel men and women who favor
hotel building Investments, the special opportunities OF their
cities and towns
Albuquerque has made absolutely no effort to interest
any of these men who make a business of financing and
building hotels. One hurried survey of the eastern held

grasped the local opportunity because we have not tried to
find It in the right places when it was available. Now the
bulk OF such available capital has been absorbed IN similar
enterprises elsewhere
The proposition, therefore. has resolved itself into a
single option. Albuquerque can build tins hotel by the CO.

the announcement that Postmaster
General Hayes has issued instruc-

| What has become of the Sc
, quence plays in footbalI?"
! That question was recently put to
me by a gridiron star of the old
school
We were watching an Ohio col
lege football game, and were dis
appointed at the lack of action. The
two elevenS were touted as having
strong attack, but apparently
were keeping most of their stuff I'M
der cover.
1t was not uncommon to see the
backdeld men get their heads to-
gether before trying a certain play.
AS a matter of fact the game was
delayed by more arguments than
one would expect at the peace con-
ference. These constant delays,
which naturally killed off the &C
ton. were what caused the veteran
grid star to recall the sequence
plays of the old days
A great many lovers of football
will readily recall games in which
a series of plays, pre-arranged and
carefully rehearsed and run off
without the shout of a single signal,
was the deciding factor in the out
come of the game. The sequence
play was the surprise attack. In
/ theory such an attack ought to ov-

A crowded gallery at the Harms

score.
The teams did not meet again
until 1919, when Michigan bowed
and the little brown jug went back

Ann Arbor last year, however, when
the Wolverines nosed out their op-
ponents at Minneapolis.

LITTLE BROWN
JUG SOUGHT BY
GOPHER SCHOOL
Michigan and Minnesota to Play to
Over 10000 at Homecoming
Saturday.

Ann Arbor. Mich. Nov. 15.-Be-
fore a crowd expected to duplicate
that which witnessed the memora-
bic Ohio State battle here last
month, Michigan and Minnesota
will engage Nov. 10 in their annual
encounter. Upon the outcome will
hinge possession OF the little
/ brown jug" one of the most priced
trophies of the gridiron sport.
/ The Michigan-M Minnesota game
! has become one of the traditions
! of each school.
On the eve Of the Michigan-W Wis
| consin class at Madison last week
| Coach Fielding H. Yost. Michigan
mentor, received the following tel
egram from Doc" Williams. the
. Minnesota coach. that speaks vol
( umes in a language best under
stood by alumni and students of
the two institutions:
What the Harvard and Prince
! ton games are to Yale. the Michi-
| gan and Wisconsin games are to
Minnesota. The western confer
ence schedules are so arranged that
! any tNam IS liable to lose an early
/ or mid-season game. but it makes
no difference 10 Minnesota what
the outcome OF other games, the
contest with Michigan is looked
forward to as the football classic
OF the season. The great battles
in hygone years between Minnesota
and Michigan helped make football
history in the middle-west. Clean.
hard play and high standard Of
craftsmanship always has been a
characteristic Of these games.
Above all other trophies we prize
the little brown jug. We will do
our utmost to bring it back to Min
nesota this year, but may the best
team win"
For real color and display of
spirit the Michigan Minnesota en-
gagement outshines any other foot /
ball game on the Wolverine sched- .
ule. in the opinion of the sports .
followers. Rivalry always has been /
OF the keenest /
The jug that has become en-
blematic OF victory originally was
used by the Yost squad as a water
contalner in 1908. That year Mich
igan went to Minnesota and after
the two teams had battled to a 6
to 6 tie the Michigan Jug was found
to be missing. The Minnesota
mentor, when questioned. announc-
ed it had bSen appropriated by his
team and forever aftervard vouId
stand as trophy in Nnchigan-Mfn

aimed by Minnesota until the next
between the Wolverines
