WABASH ELEVEN
May LAND GAME
Wash-Jeff Taking No Chances
in Preparation for Com
ing Clash.

WASHINGTON, Pa, Nov. H.
Wabash college which meets
Washington and Jefferson in the
final. game of the home season
here next Saturday, is coached by
Pete Vaughn, one OF the greatest
line players that the Princeton
Tigers ever produced. Vaughn was
an All-Amerlcan- in his. day and
regarded as an exceptionally
smart football player. About tho
time he finished his scholastic
work at the New Jersey institu-
ton, the United States became in
volved In the World War and
Vaughn, like many other college
athletes was among the first to en-
list. We went overseas, became
an officer and was finally assign
ed to the Twenty-Eighth or Key
stone division.
AS 1t happened the Twenty
Eighth division was then engaged
In bitter struggle for the foot
ball supremacy OF the A. e. F..
Col. John Aiken, of the 10 In
fantry, a celebrated quarterback
at w. & j., one time captain of the
Red and Black and later among
Its most famous and successful
coaches, was in charge of the
Twenty-Elghth team as head
coach. Aiken selected certain
former football men in the divis-
ion to assist him and one OF these
was Vaughn, the former Princeton
All-American. The Twenty-Eighth
division went through the over
seass campaign without being
scored upon. Col. Aiken, now re.
gister Of Wills, OF Washington
County, gives Vaughn much of
the credit for the development of
that great team.
pete Vaughn is one of the
smartest an dmost resourceful
football coaches I know" said
Col. Aiken recently. He knows
the game In all It's angles and has
the knack Of imparting what he
knows to others. Any team coach
ed by Vaughn should be a good
one"
So that's one reason why Wash
Jef authorities are looking for a
stiht battle with the Hoosiers at
College Field next Saturday after
noon, for Biddy Aiken Is regard
ed in Red and Black circles as a
mighty fine Judge Of football
man.

MoLaren's Theory

natl. was
talking to him Saturday morning
in the lobby of the Gibson Hotel.
George doesn't look so much DIFF
ferent than, when he was standing
the scholastic players on their
head when he was a member o;
every athletic team at Peabody
High SchooI, Pittsburgh, some
years ago. He is the same pleas
ant, earnest and congenial chap as
OF old and he Is making the best
OF hard proposition at Cincin-
natl. McLaren has theory all
hIsi own about football injuries.
THE real active football player
said George. does not stand as
much chance OF being hurt as the
guy who Is not so active. OF
course, the active player may get
a bone broken once in awhile bV:
1t doesn't happen very often.

gets bumped, he takes it better
than when he is standing still. II
coach has his men in the proper
fighting mood they don't get hut
as general run. When they are
In their fighting mood they are too
busy to get jammed much. - It
has been McLaren's experience at
Cincinnati that he has had more
men hurt in the minor battles than
in the big ones. We were talking
about the Pitt-Lafayette game and
l told McLaren how Winterburn
had fumbled twice in less than
four minutes, the second tumble
causing Pitts defeat. McLaren
smiled and remarked, "WhtS Pop
was here for tire first game Of tina
season, told him W.nterburn
looked like, his best bet in the
backfield." But before the season
is over feel that Winterburn is
going to make good the praise
showered upon him by McLaren.

The sport writer on the Morgan

Clarksburg had not been defeated
by the Icemen Z to 6 a few weeks

writer says:

Billy Sunday Talks to the Public

Billy Sunday Talks to the Public
"These booze buns are black
hearted liars. They want the saloon,
the brothel, the prostitute, the gamb-
ling hell to have free license to run,
and ruin childhood, motherhood, and
manhood.
They want to scrap our state and
federal constitutions and do away
with law and order. In Ohio they
want decent folks to vote for beer,
wine and the saloon.
They have no thought of decency.
They shun law enforcement as a
child should shun rattlesnake,
swat EN- at the polls"
This was strong language used by
the versatile Billy, at Dayton, Ohio,
just before Ohio vited on the been
and wine amendment to nullify the
18th amendment TO the U. S. Con-
stitution. Ten of thousand cheered
the mighty Billy, as he hit the devil
and booze buns on the head.
The vets would burn him at tho
stake and have wild war dance if
they dared to do it. Ohio voted dry
by 100000 majority against beer
end wine, Ohio stands a.. one vsof

Woodpecker Came TO Life

Independence, Iowa--William Fem
ner and George Gissel were blast
ing stumps on the Gissel farm, north
west of town, Saturday. They had
drilled a hole and placed a charge
of two pounds of dynamite beneath
a large stump. The fuse and caps
were attached to the dynamite the
end of the fuse lighted and the men
FASTENED away from the vicinity of
the stump.
Looking back just after they got
away safe distance, they saw a
woodpecker, which had been flying
about, had alighted on the top of
that stump. They tried to shoe or
yell it away, but it did not bulge.
1t continued to sit right there, little
realizing that it Was in great dan
ger, that in very few moments
it was apt to be blown into king
dom come. Despite all the men could
do to get it to leave its >precarious
perch it stayed right there.
Pretty soon off went the charge
of dynamite with loud report.
After the debris of the stump had
come down to earth and the smoke
had cleared away Messrs. Fennei
and Gissel went back to the spot
There, lying apparently dead, about
five feet from where the stump
had been, was the woodpecker.
Mr.. Gissel sympathetically picked
up the dead" bird, made some re-
mark about how it was 100 bad, but,
just at that moment, much to his
surprise, the woodpecker raised up
and flew away, apparently unhurt.

DEBS
" Mr. Debs tells the striking railroad men and coal
miners in effect, that they ought to drop their
trade unions, get all workers together in one big
industrial union, fight the government to the limit
if it interferes with them, and strike out now for
the revolution that is to put the proletarlat on
top and the bourgeoise under foot to take bitter
Hose Of his own medicine.
That's singularly poor advice, and probably the
striking railroad and coal mine workers won't pay
much attention to it. Very few Of them have even
in the back Of their minds any such objective
Debs has in his. They are not ready for the "rev-
