Seized Their Opportunities.

At the beginning of the great war,
Christianial tried to husband her man
power by employing women as street
car conductors. Some objections were
raised at first, but in time the travel
ing public took real liking to the
cenductorette ON the ground that she
was more civil than mere man.
Though there has been no official or
der to reinstate men, it is noticeable
that the women conductors have grad
ually disappeared. Asked what had
become of them, the chief of transit
in the Norwegian capital replied that
as they had constant opportunity to

NEEDS OF "Y0UMG AMERICA"
European Critic Thinks That Youth

George Santayana, famous philosO-
pher and writer, In an article written
especially In the Forum on "Amerfca's
Young Radicals" says:
II have made a severe effort to dis
cover as well as I may from a dis
lance what these rebels want. / see
what they are against-they are

fort / have not been able to discover
It. This may be due to my lack Of I'M
Outstanding or to their incapacity to
express themselves clearly, for their
style is something appalling. But per-
haps this scandalons failure In express
sion, when expression is what they
yearn for and demand at all costs,
may be a symptom of something deep
er; Of q radical mistake they have
made In the direction Of their efforts
and aspirations. They think they need
more freedom, more room, chance to
be more spontaneous. I suspect that
they have had too much freedom, too
much empty space, too much practice
In being spontaneous when there was
nothing In them to bubble out. Their
style is sign Of this: 1t is not merely
that they have no mastery of the Eng
Hsh language as hitherto spoken, no
clear sense Of the value of words, and
no simplicity; that they are without
the vocabulary or the idiom Of culti-
waited people. No, 1t is not
more freedom that young America
needs In order to be happy; it needs
more discipline"

game. Since it kept one of the
teams from winning the game. that
college will have no further use for
me for a couple of years"
Football officials are agreed upon
usually by the contending teams. A
ruling that beats a college out of
an important game is certain to
eliminate that official from work
ing for that particular college for
years.
This fact was brought out at the
recent meeting OF college football
officials in New York. E. X. Hall
chairman of the intercollegiate foot
ball rules committee, made the fol-
lowing sensational statement:
Football officials are intimidat-
ed by certain colleges and led 20
shut their eyes TO infractions of the
rules because they are warned that
lnfilction of penalties would cause
them to be barred from games
played in these institutions.
III the spirit of sportsmanship is
dying out in the colleges, where is
one going to look for it.

Today's Angle In
Sports

The Washington & Jefferson-Cal-
ifornia game is over, and Coach
Neale's eleven has proved that all
the supermen in football are not on
the Pacific coast
The game has also demonstrated
that w. & J. has a better team than
most of the critics gave it credit
for, or else California wasn't as
strong as the advance notices made
US believe.
Washington & Jefferson was
robbed of a victory because of one
of the toughest breaks a football
team could possibly get, the calling
of an off-side play as a touchdown
is scored
Shortly after the game had start
ed, Halfback Brenkert ran 40 yards
for a touchdown. The score was
not allowed because one of the Of
ficials ruled w & ]. player was
'off-side. That score would have
given the eastern eleven victory,
had it been allowed.
All of which brings US to the real
reason for this story The life of a
college football official is no long
er soft job. Once upon a time the
colleges accepted the rulings of the
officials without comment. Those
were the happy days for the off,
Gals but they no longer exist.
Offside and holding plays are a
question of judgment purely. They
are similar to the ball and strike.
or the out and safe decisions of the
baseball umpire. The baseball Of
fetal reaches decision and gives
it. Often he is the only person in
the ball park who takes that view.
Often one important ruling gets
a football official in bad. A ruling
similar to the one that kept w. & ].
from defeating California, has caus-
ed many an excellent official to be
scratched by the college so penal
lied
Last fall I saw a famous eastern
official render such a ruling. L
talked to him In his dressing room
after the game. The first thing he
said to me was:
