Heisman bad predicted. Folks of
the athletic committee, fussy, criti-
cal "old grads" and others, blamed
1t an On Heiaman-not on the ma

They were the same men who
had made life miserable for other
Pennsy coaches.
But their howl for the dismissal
OF Hetaman was stilled by wiser

said.
So Heisman was signed up to a
new contract. II was for three or
five years-long enough anyway to
permit Heisman to install his sys-
tenn completely: long enough for
him to demonstrate his greatness.
TEAMS WERE BETTER.
His team in 1871 was a bit bet

came 1922 At last Pennsy had a

II was one better by far than
Pennsy has had in a dozen years.
Whatever IT achieved was due in
the main to Heisman's wizardly as
coach. 1t was the inspiration Of
Heisman, the teaching of Heisnan
which made men of mediocre nat

again and again through the year.
The Heisman system is nov COM

which graduation makes will be

Ireland has enough water power now
to replace entirely all the power she
needs to-day from fuel How many
countries can say the same?
The committee has surveyed care
fully and reported upon four great
river schemes, /. e., the lower Shan

fey. These schemes may be multiplied
almost indefinitely. Space prevents

The jumps. the hurdles. the sprints and
the throws will require slightly different
types Of athletes, particularly the latter.
The large person. who is not especially
quick. may become expert in the throw
ing events.
In the second place, there is no other
tvpe OF athletics in which all Of ones s
mercy must be gathered for one supreme
effort. Most games depend largely upon
endurance. Many times in real life a
supreme though short lived effort must
be made. In the third place, in this
branch of athletics one must depend en-
tirely on oneself The rest of the team
may carry along one weak forward in
basketball. but in the individual events
in track each contestant stands alone.
There are numerous games teaching
team play, but this. is the only sport
where the individual element is strong.

been wrongly attributed to athletics
when. as a matter OF fact, the vital

which has prepared memoir, me-
ticulous and voluminous, upon Ire
lands resources in water power. coal
power, peat. and Industrial alcohol.
The chief source of power in to-
days ireland is imported coal which
amounts to 100000 tons. Ireland
herself supplying only about 100, 900
tens. and peat of about 5000. 900 tons,
used almost exclusively for domestic
purposes. (Peat incidentally takes
double the weight of coal to produce
the same power.) Ireland needs on
her present scale something under
IL, 900. 900 tons of coal per annum for
her work. Tomorrow, that Is to say
in about ten years. she should use not
less than 100,000.000 tons or their
power equivalent.
In the estimate by the commission
OF two thousand million tons as her
coal reserves. no account is taken of
her concealed coal fields. The Irish
coal industry committee puts the ac-
tual coal reserves at 0.560,00 met
ric tons and the probable reserves at
something under fifty millions Of met
ric tons. The enormous difference is
caused partly by the psucity OF infor-
nation and knowledge available 70 the
coal industry committee at the time
their estimates were made On the
other hand. the Commission OF Inquiry
had access 10 every possible source Of
information.
Ireland's chief coal fields are the
Munster, Sieve Ardagh. Connacht,
Ballycastle. Annaghone and Coalislsnd
coal fields. The Castlecomer anthra-
cite collieries have been working for
over 400 years. When II Is remem-
bered that the Irish coal industry only
employed Se3 men in 1918, 1t will he
seen that the Industry Committees es-
innate that within a short time the
coal ouput could he increased 10 500,-
900 tons per annum and employ 1000
men. is not an ovcrstatement.
The ignorance OF the Irish people
upon certain sides Of modern power
and machinery is still pretty dense.

facturer OF anthracite stoves In Ire

the officers OF the union are set forth
in the report as follows:
I'm accordance with our laws. ws
submit the following reasons for re-
fusing our approval TO above anne nd
ment:
"first-Because we were unani-
mously of the opinion II would not he
70 our orga nization' S best interest TO
do SO. That the saving effected BY re-
ducing officers salaries would be much
more than Offset by its injurious ef-
fects where your officers were protest
ing against unfair reductions which
foundrymen were trying to enforce.
They would be placed in the humiliat-
ing position of being taunted of argu-
ing in behalf of the members against
what the members themselves had
forced upon them, and this naturally
would handicap their efforts in max
ing settlements.
''Second--It is a well known fact
that the officers of the |. NJ. L. of \.
A. receive smaller salaries than are
paid by the great majority of the
national unions. regardless OF what
their calling may be and many Of
which have a much smaller and less
influential organization than our own.
This is made emphatically clear bv a
comparison of the salaries received
by the officers Of other international
trade unions with those paid TO our
officers.
I'VE believe that our organization
has efficient. capable, faithful and eX-
perienced officers who are as valuable
to us as the officers OF other organiza-
tions are 10 them and we feel that
this drastic reduction should not be
forced upon them.
"Third--Your executive board has
consistently contended and held that
there was no justifiable reason for the
reductions which the foundrymen have
demanded: nevertheless, owing to ex-
isting trade conditions. they have taken
cruel advantage OF and enforced un-
fair conditions because OF mems neces-
stiles.
"If our contention is correct regard
ing our employers il also applies with
equal if not greater force 10 our or

never made right your executive

unjust 10 enforce this proposed reduc-
ton upon your officers.

Swiss Experts Advising How
To Develop Power From Lakes

Space precludcs anything more than
a mention Of the proposals now on
foot TO utilize tho many mountain
lakes In ireland for the generation Of
electricity, many of tho lakes offering
over 500 horsepower lake and a
combination Of lakes being able 70 give
some thousands Of horse power. This
water power would be the cheapest OF
all-pcrhaps the cheapest now known
in Europe--many OF the lakes being
within easy distance OF deep water
harbors. AZ the moment ireland is
using Swiss hydro-electric experts 70

The reasons why 1reland's power

not hitherto been utilized is capable Of
