1922 GRID SEASON
REMARKABLE FOR

New York, Nov. 29-(By A. P)-
The 1922 gridiron season, which
comes to an end this week with the
few collegiate contests scheduled
Thanksgiving Day and Saturday, will
so down in tho annals Of the game

tacular upsets in form, but also out

ment and incident.
Review of the scoring records, in
Guiding last Saturdays games dis
closes that SO colleges. representa-
tive Of play in all parts of the coun-
try, scored exactly l1,U00 points in
593 contests, an average of approXi-
rately 1873 points per team ard 10
points per game.
Twenty-se contests ended in
ties, of which ten were scoreless. In
one field goal, the only score of the
game. while in two instances a safety
resulted in triumph by unique scores
Of to 0.
Proof of the important part played
by. the new try-for-p point after
touchdown was the fact that nine
games were decided by a single
point. Pennsylvania furnished two
;; outstanding examples by losing one
week to Pittsburg. to 6, and win
ming the next from Penn State by
the same score. Princeton's ability to
score the extra points gave the Tig-
ers their winning margin against
Chicago, q to IS in the seasons
outstanding er-sectional battle.
Harvard, losing to Princeton by a
| score of 10 to 8 and defeating Yale by
a similar score, emphasized curious
| tondness for this tally. The Crimson
has been beaten by the Tigers by
1913 for two straight years and in turn
vanquished the Blue by the same
score in three of the last four games.

East African bamboo, one of the

found that paper pulp may be OBJ
tanned, grows on the plateaus and
mountains Of the Colony of Kenya, at
an altitude of $500 to 1900 feet.
These forests cover large areas, in
some cases many square miles in ex-
tent. The largest of these are located
in the Kikuyu and Mau Escarpments

OF Mount Kenya and Mount Elgon.
The distance of these forests from
the railroads is one of the difficulties
which must be overcome, if they are
to be thoroughly developed, the near

transportation facilities. They are
well supplied. however. by many
streams of sufficient depth and power
to float logs down to central points.

cause OF the high altitude at which
the forests are located the Africans

themselves to the cooler temperature.
