PENN WILL NOT
PLAY LAFAYETTE
Official Football Schedule Ex-
cIudes Easton Eleven and
Dartmouth Next Season
ONE DATE STILL OPEN

The University Of Pennsylvania S
football schedule for 1922 as announced
officially does not include games with
Dartmouth and Lafayette.
One date. November 4, IL open. and
may be awarded to the University of
Alabama.
Concerning the schedule, the Foot
ball Committee made the following
statement:
''Pennsylvania regrets that neither
Lafayette nor Dartmouth is included
Dartmouth, It Is found impossible in
view Of other agreements of long stand
Ing to find n suitable date. This fact t..
however, will not interfere with the
pleasant relations between the two uni
versities in other sports, and it is the
expectation Of both that the series will
be resumed in 1923.
Concerning Lafayette, It was the
feeling of the committee that Pennsyl-
vnnia could not, in justice to the team,
include this eleven OH schedule which
already contained Swarthmore, Navy,
pittsburgh, Penn State and Cornell.
have monopoly Of the strongest teams
in the East. and the majority Of them
asked for places on our 1922 schedule.
It Is obviously impossible to play them
all. Pittsburgh, Penn State and Lafay-
.ette comprise a trio as strong as any
| three institutions in the East. 1t was
the feeling of last years committee
that. in Justice to themselves, they
could not play more than two Of these
three in any single year. When the
1921 schedule was arranged, Penn State
was left of and Lafayette substituted.
State was told Mt the time that, in
accordance with n principle of rotation
which Pennsylvania aimed to put into
effect for the future games with these
three institutions, an attempt would be
made to give State a place on the 1922
schedule. This. and the strength of the
schedule as otherwise arranged, ex =
plains why Lafayette is omitted for
next year.
'1t Is the judgment Of the commit
tee and many former players that the
1922 list Of games already comprises
az strong schedule as any Pennsyl-
vania team has played in many years
| This Is the third break in games with
Lafayette. Around 1892 the two teams
were separated for a period of two
years, and later, in 1900, period Of
four years lapsed b~,ween the games
However, there are no unfriendly feel
ings between the two institutions, ant
both expect to be together again another
year.

1t has been a custom in the Unite
States, dating back TO the tl,s., of
the revolution. &C toward our soldiers
by giving them special privileges in
connection with our public lands. In
the earlier days. when the Gntted
States had more public iarl than any
thing else. the soldiers wecc given
tracts CT land outright, withou. any
requirements as to residence, cuitiva-
tion. etc. Later it was found that
most Of the soldiers who received such
gifts sold their rights to land speau.
latOrs for little or nothing, and the
largest part ct the gift went to the
shrewd spectators who relieved the
soldiers OF their bounty warrants, "r
land scrip. So later legislation has
been less generous but more beneficial;
to the soldiers.
After we entered the war with Ger
many, congress passed several laws
granGting to- our soldiers and sailors
special privileges in taking up our
public lands. These laws fall into two
classes. One class applies to all who
served in the army or navy of the
United States curing the late war.
whether they had He'd or settled upon
public land before such Service began
or not. while the other class aplies
only to those who had initiated claims
to public land before enterin. the
service.
The soldier who had not initiated a
claim. either by filing or by settling
upon unsurveyei land, or by filing a
contest before he entered the service.
is Interested in only three Of these spe-
