nents hitless and runless for nine
innings, allowing only one man to

HAIL TAD JONES
AS NEW WIZARD
0F GRID WORLD
Fans Believe Coach Will Put
Yale Back on Foot
ball Map.
BY JACK VEIOCK.

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-keep an eye
on Tad Jones. the new miracle man of
football.
Here's a tip that is going the rounds
today among football fans in general
and those who follow the fortunes Of
the big three in particular.
Jones will put Yale back on the
football map" they say. Jones is a
coach par-excellence."
Yale has unbounded faith in Jones.
That faith is so firmly rooted that
Jones has been given full sway. Be-
cause of this his chances of success
are brighter than those of any Yale
coach of the last few years have been.
Overcomes Handicaps.
The Yale mentor had no chance 10
show his full ability last year, yet he
did ii in the Harvard game despite
circumstances. This year he got his
first chance and his accomplishments
have proven a sweet dish for Yale.
The Bull Dogs have played five
games to date piling up total of 1l3
points. They have proven themselves
y better scoring machine than Harvard,
with 70 points in six games, and
Princeton with forty points in four
games. And they have yet to reach
top form.
Builds Slowly.
Jones is building his team up slowly
for the Princeton and Harvard games
on November II and 10 respectively.
Against Army the Blue showed evi-
dence of latent strength which, when
developed, will lend the team mucn
driving power. Serious injuries to
players then, appear to be the only
possible stumbling blocks in Yale 8
path to top form, for Jones will surely
bring out the best in his team If given
the opportunity.
A notable feature about the Yale
squad and the Jones system lies in the
fact that most of the players are men
who will be valuable for two or three
years.

FALL TERM CLOSES AT
AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL
Semester One Of the Most Successful
in Recent Years According to
Supt. P. E. Miller.

The West Central School of Agri-
ture will close one of the most sue
cessful semesters in recent years at
noon next Thursday, December .22.
One of the contributing factors to the
efficient work which has been done
in all departments according to Sup
erintendent P. e. Miller has been the
splendid health of the student body
during the term? There have been no
cases of serious illness and the hos
pital has had very few patients dur
ing the year. The health situation at
the School of Agriculture has been
pronounced excellent during the en-
tire term by the University health
authorities. The work of the semes-
ter has been greatly facilitated by the
addition of the new Agricultural Hall
to the equipment of the school,. The
Animal Husbandry Department now
has splendid Accommodations for stock
Judging, meat killing and cutting and
dairy laboratories. The farm crops,
soils, chemistry and horticultural de-
partments are splendidly equipped
ped in this new building. An addi-
tion to the Engineering Building dur
ing the past year has made it possible
to add new courses in farm shop work
| in this department. The new Music
Building has been greatly appreciated
| by all students in the Music Depart
ment. A considerable portion of the
students enrolled at the West Central
| School are now taking music in some
form. In the Home Economics De-
paTtment the work of the semester
has been most satisfactory and much
new work has been given which has
not been offered heretofore. The en-
rollment during the fall term has
been approximately the same as last
year with the exception that no stu
dents have cancelled their registra-
tions during the entire term: Sup
erintendent Miller says this is a re-
markable record in that it is seldom
that it. is not necessary for one OF
more students to leave school before
the terms, work is completed. Al
ready plans are maturing for the
courses and work which will be, of.
tferedE during the winter term. Many
advance registrations for new stu
dents are new being received and the
enrolment promises to be fully equa
to that of last year notwithstanding
are having to finance their education
The winter term will open Jan. ant
close March "a.

"Lost Battalion" Veteran Insane.

Granite Falls Tribune. Lars Olson
of Candy, a veteran of the World
war through which he served as
member of the Lost Battalion" was
adjudged insane at a hearing in the
Probate Office Friday afternoon and
committed to the st. Peter asylum.
Olson was constantly under the de-
lusion spies were after him. When
questioned by Judge Hall and the
doctors he claimed that while in a
trench in France the captain of his
company, who, he said, had it in for
him, ordered him shot but that the
soldier who did the shooting made a
mistake and shot the fellow lying
next to him. Ever since then he has
believed the government has been af-
ter him and when another hired man
was employed on the farm where he
was working, he Immediately became
suspicious Stephen Lund, the new
man acted rather strange which add
ed to the fear of Olson and Thurs
day he shot at Lund to freighten him
away. Olson was taken by a Candy
deputy SneFIu anu OIouSHI W vi "AA''
the next afternoon.
Olson served throughout the war as
a member of Company G, 308th In
fantry, 77th Division and was mem
ber of the Lost Battalion. This unit
surrounded by the enemy and having
been without food and water fol
three days, was asked to surrender by
a German officer, which brought thu
laconic ego to hell'' reply that hal
made this battalion famous since
The commander of this unit, Colone

wonderfully instructive but very in
teresting as we'll
Mrs. L. c. Spooner followed with
the topic: Japan's Aspirations, politi-
cally, economically and territorially.
A subject that under existing circum-
stances would have discouraged one
with a less comprehensive grasp of
current events. However, Mrs. Spoon
er succeeded in giving a clear, con-
else summary of the Peace Party
showing it's effects as related to her
subject.

tertaining description of japanese

valuable and interesting information

by rising vote of thanks, and hope
to persuade Miss March to tell of he

Spooner and Paul Junior narrowly
escaped burning to death at 1880 yes
terday morning when gasoline stove
exploded in the kitchen in the home
and the whole house was enveloped In
a sheet of flames few moments later.
Mr.. SpoOnef was reused by Mary Ber-
gerson, the maid who was in the kit
chen when the explosion occurred,
After getting Paul Junior, he found
the stairway closed with flames.
Father and son climed thru an upper
window and jumped to the ground,
none to soon to escape the spreading
flames behind them.
Mrs. Spooner who was on her way
home from a neighbor's house saw
only a sheet of flames as she ap-
preached. She was frantic at first
lest her son and husband were still
upstairs, but she was quickly reas-
sured. The fire department arrived
and the fire was put out, but the
flames had already done their work
and the whole inside of the Spooner
home was a total wreck. Furnish
ings, wood work, clothing, all were
either burned or chared beyond re-
pair. The paint hung in loose fes-
toons on the inner side of the closet
doors upstairs from the intense heat,
The Douglas Bailey home was
burned about the stairway and badly
damaged by water, but the flames
we're extinguished before they got
thru the intervening wall. The two
children we're carried out in their
night clothes and taken to ]. G. Nor
rison's home across the street. The
furniture which was, carried out was
all saved with only minor damages
Crowds of people were drawn by
the flames which lit up the whole
west side of town like brilliant sun
set. Mr.. Spooner injured his foot
when he jumped, but the extent OF
the injury is not yet known. For
tunately his home was covered by in
surance.
Paul Junior showed great concern
over the fate of his pet kitten as soon
as he was outside. The little animal
was found later stretched out deat
close to an upper window.
