GUIDE BOOK PROVES TO
BE REAL Thriller
Daily Letter by Frederic J. Haskin

WASHINGTON, Nov. ga per-
son seeking literature with a thrill
would not be likely to look for 1t in
a government document. Neverthe-
less the diligent searcher does not
need much imagination to find plen-
ty of exciting reading in a bulletin
recently issued by the Geological
Survey. The bulletin Is titled Guide
book of the Western United States
| Part E." and it contains a descrtp-
ton of the scenery, climate, n re-
sources of the country which can be
| observed by a traveller on h Dem
yer & Rio Grande Western Railroad.
But within this wrapper ONE the
| rafting story of the building of the
Denver &c Rio Grande-a western
| thriller if there ever was one.
First, before we get on with this
! story of empire building, a WORD
| about the ~guidebook itself. AS =
Geological Survey publication, 1t is
the pet child of Marius r. Camp
bell. who was the author of the
first par to be published, Part A,
dealing with the country along the
Northern Pacific Railroad, and also
of the part which has just been is
sued. Mr.. Campbell, who is a geo
Iogist with the survey, has crossed
the continent many times on the
various railroads. AS a good sclen-
fist. he was at first distressed by the
railroad maps. The railroad map
maker is prone to draw his own
line straight and to comfort the
country to make it fit his scheme.
MIR. Campbell believed that the trav-
elers through the West ought to be
able to get accurate maps of the
country penetrated by the railroads.
The ~geologist also noted that
many of the summer tourists were
eastern school teachers. These raw
elers seemed to be thirsty for infor-
nation about the country tnrougn
which they passed, but for this in
formation they were forced TO rely
upon railroad folders, trainmen, or
fellow travellers, who might or might
not supply authentic facts. In any
event, 1t was impossible for the
chance tourist to see everything Oh
interest along the lines. Many I'M
portant features were certainly TO be
passed by without notice simply be-
cause the tourist would not be in
formed of the significance of various
objects.
Mr.. Campbell saw in this situa-
ton an opportunity to do a double
service-to make travel more pleas
urable to the tourist and to popular
ize and spread accurate knowledge
| of the resources of the West. His en-
thusiasm for the project prevailed
upon the Geological Survey, and he
was given the task Of compiling the
first volume Of the suidebook, the

IMPROVED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS

Traffic conditions on the streets of Perth Amboy have been
greatly improved since the police department abolished the rule
whereby automobiles parked at an angle Of fortyfve degrees on
one side of the street in the business section of the city. This ruling
tiles. 1t was in the nature of an experiment. 1t accomplished its
purpose, all right, as it furnished accommodations for many more
cars and also made it much more convenient for autoists to get
away when they are ready to move. But, after all, the streets ara
intended for travel not parking, and therefore first consideration
must be given to traffic.
After the months of parking at fortyfve degrees on one side
of the street the present ruling makes the streets look compare
lively clear and the movement of vehicles is much easier. It is
plain that the experiment of parking at an angle was not a success.
The average street in any municipality is entirely too narrow for
present day traffic; all the room is needed to keep the vehicles
moving. There are plenty of side streets not far from the main
business section where those who want to leave their cars while
they go about a little may park without inconveniencing anybody.
At first thought this may seem a little inconvenient for the auto
lists but they can soon become accustomed to it.
When the ruling was first made that vehicles may stop only on
the right side of the street there was more or less complaint. For
generations people had been accustomed to pulling up to the curb
on either side as they pleased. Today no one would think of stop
ping anywhere except on the right side and no matter how much
room there may be on the left side, the driver moves along until
he finds a vacant place on the side in the direction in which he is
going. Otherwise he turns around and comes up on the opposite
side where there is room.
Just as this has become a fixed custom, so will the parking on
the side streets, leaving the business thoroughfares free for travel,
become a custom before very long and people will wonder why
they ever consented to have the business thoroughfares blocked
in the way they are now.
Naturally, with cars parked parallel instead of at an agile to
the curb fewer cars will be accommodated. This means that cars
must overflow into the ~neighboring thoroughfares. 1t is a start
in the right direction. 1t must be plain to every driver of an au-
tomobile that Chief Tonnesen has done a good thing in ~abolishing
the angle parking, returning to the practice of having cars pull
up parallel with the curb.
All kinds Of experiments will have to be tried, doubtless, be-
fore this great traffic problem is solved, but it is very evident that
the plan Of parking cars at an angle when streets are as narrow as
xbay are, Is not q SUCCESS.

TOday'S Sport Angle

Who will coach the University OF
Minnesota football team next fall?
Recently there was a report that
Minnesota was making an effort to
get Hugo Bezdek.
u hardly seems possible that
Penn State will let Bezdek get
away. He has done big things in
baseball and football at Penn State.
Just at the present time Williams.
who for 22 years has coached foot
ball teams at Minnesota, is coming
in for a lot Of panning.
Failure TO turn out winning teams
for a number OF years caused the
supporters of Minnesota to forget a
number OF the great elevens that
Williams had turned out in the past
While Williams has "hivvered"
for several years at Minnesota, there
is no getting away from the fact
that he has been a big failure in
football circles
At the old game Williams always
turned out great teams. Under the
regime OF the forward pass he has
not been so successful.
Two of the greatest football plays
OF all time were originated by viii
liams. namely the tackles back and
| the Minnesota shift.
The tackles back play was q
whale in its day. and soon wa,
copied by coaches all over the coun.
I try.
The Minnesota shift was so un.
usual that IL was the talk OF tn,
! football world when sprung by
I williams. A number Of the presen'
shift plays are based around tn,
/ Minnesota shift idea.
Perhaps Williams stayed al Min
nesota too long. Twenty-Five year
is a long time at the same institu
ton. Regardless OF that, William
has done much for football.
