A lawn mower that will successful
ly cut the grass on the incline of Il
terrace and that will not require its
operator TO pull it up and down, nor
run up and down the grass bank him
self, is described in Popular Mechan-
les Magazine. In construction the
new device does not differ greatly
from the old-style lawn mower In
stead of the stationary handle, the
new machine has a pivoted handle
set on a toothed quadrant. BY lifting
a stop pin from between the teeth Of
the quadrant, and setting it to the
desired point, the mower is brought
into an angular position relative to
the operator, so that he can cut a
lengthwise swath on the slope with
out leaving the ground level.

But the thing that interested some

YUSKA PUTS UP A
 GAME FIGHT, BUT
 LOSES TO MANOFF
Armenian Champion Is Sub Stituted for Rough House"
 Stevens at Last Minute

Despite the fact that the audience was exceedingly small, in fact, one of the smallest to ever attend an atheltic en- tertainment staged by the B. A. C., JacS Yuska and Manoff, who was substituted for Harry Stevens at the last moment, staged fast and aggressive bout. Even if it wasn't marvel of scientific grap- bling. the comparatively few fans on hand seemed to enjoy the bout im- menseiy.
 The giant Armenian champion, Manoff, had things almost entirely his own way and won two straight falls in littles less than % minutes of actual wrestling.
 Just before the big bout it was an- nounced that Harry Stevens was unable to be on hand last night, so the Ar menian Manoff, was substituted for Stevens.
 The two men entered the ring shortly after 9 o'clock. Carl Langrebe called them to the center of the ring and gave them the usual referees instructions. Then the gong was sounded.
 Working as if they were wrestling be- fore an oveeflowing house, Manoff ana Yuska settled down to immediate busl. ness, minus most of the stallinG ana take it easy" actions of most wrestlers, and went after each other from, the first minute to the last.
 Manoff took his opponent to the mat with q body lock, which was quickly broken. Yuska tried a head lock and few other suii,iry holds to no avail. Work was fast and snappy until Manoff oo- taned a head scissors on his opponent and Yuska pounded the mat lustily as a sign of surrender. It was Manoff's Tall ;tt l., on ,tnc
 Both men were applauded as they le1' the ring for the intermission before the second fall
 When the two men came back to the ring they lost even less time in getting down to business than the first time. u was only 10 minutes before Manoff seized a body lock and pinned Yuska's shoul, ders firmly to the mat for the secono and final fall. It's true that there was very little per or excitement over the match, but 1t was due more to the small crowd of specta' tors than to any fault of the principaiS in the match. Both Manoff and Yuska wrestled hard and willingly and put ut as good, but perhaps not as long draw out match as some of the engagements in which their greater contemporarles take part.
 The preliminaries were rather shor' also, consisting of several matches pe' tween little fellows and an exhibition ai' i fair between Clarke, 145 pounds, and Pou l 135 pounds, which the former won.

TAKE FOOTBALL TOO
 SERIOUSLY. SAYS YOST

Fielding Yost, Michigans football coach, has sent forth a warning that college football is being taken too se- riously and is overreaching all sense of proportion. He says that football is primarily recreation of college and school students, and should rema,u just that.
 Defeats on the gridiron are being taken too seriously at many colleges. Instead of being regarded as a passing incident in the days play or recreation, defeats are being regarded as momen- tous tragedies in some quarters. Com mercialism is creeping into the game. and there is too much talk about the cost of tickets, expenses and guaran- tees. 1t was never intended that col lege football should have commercial importance
 Football is all right in it's place. says Yost, "Tts the highest type of sport. But in the furore for football I foresee dangers 10 the game itself. America is taking it too seriously. and there is peril of distorting our sense of ortion."-Pittsburg Leader.
