MERCURY WARRIORS PRACTICE
UNDER GLARE OF ARC LIGHTS
Southern A. C. Will Rely on
Aerial Attack Against
MOhawks.

The Mohawk eleven is promised a
busy afternoon. when they meet the
strong Southern A. c. at Union
League Park Sunday. Although
beaten by the Indians in a 13-to-7
game last year. the Southwestern
crew was the only team to cross the
Hawks goal line.
The Southern team claims the dis
tinction of being the best forward
passing team in the District inde-
pendent ranks and glance at
their passing. record is sufficient
reason. They came from the short
end of a 21-to-e score against ths
Dreadnaughts now the Indepen-
dents. of Alexandria, last season,
and with a sensational aerial attack
scored three touchdowns and
emerged the victor. completing If
teen out of seventeen passes. In last
years Mohawk game they were sue
cessful in twenty-five out of twenty
three, a record indeed.

Southwest E Eleven Works
Overtime for Game With
Georgetown.

Football warriors of the Mercury
A. c. are working out under arc
lights this week at Washington Bar
racks in preparation for their game
with the Georgetown A. C. Sunday.
The Mercury eleven, according to
the solons, is the club destined to
pull the naughty Hawks off the
throne they have occupied for the
past nine years, and the outcome
of the game with the Georgetown
crew will no doubt have an effect on
the opinion of the dopesters. The
Georgetown crew played the Hawks
to a scoreless tie at Union League
Park two weeks ago, and a victory
for the Mercury eleven, the dope
will adjudge them that much bet
ter than the Mohawks.

ssyNG SING SHIFT

When the Newport News Appren-
tice School beat the Catholic Uni
versity freshmen Saturday they
gave football followers here the
first chance to see the much talked
of Sing Sing shift" which Centre
College showed against Harvard.
This formation consists of taking
the linesmen a couple of strides
back of the ball and haves them
march along toward the sideline
and then reverse their march before
jumping to the line.
The theory of the play is 1t will
disconcert the defense and draw
offside or cause uncertainty in the
defensive line slide. However, that
the maneuver is not calculated to
revolutionize football Is indicated
by the fact 1t has already been
junked by the college that con-
ceived it-Centre.

WHAT MONDELL CONSIDERS HIS
MOST IMPORTANT LAND LAW.

When recently asked what he con
sidered his most permanently useful
and helpful legislation in connection
with land matters, Mr.. Mondell, with
out hesitation, said:
The acts for the agricultural entry
of lands containing minerals, particu-
larry coal and oil. with a reservation
of the particular mineral for which the
land is claimed or known to be valu-
able
Asked why he placed the act allow
ing the act for the agricultural entry
of coal and oil land in point of impor-
lance above the enlarged and grazing
homestead legislation. he said:
'Those acts were simply the evolu-
ton of the homestead idea. Old Ma
jor Powell forecasted them years ago.
| simply worked out the details and
started the evolution with the enlarged
homestead law and the suggestions for
the grazing homestead law. On the
other hand. the laws allowing an agri-
cultural entryman to become IL proprie-
tor in fee with only the reservation of
the mineral the land was known to
contain. was a new idea worked out
on original lines. Mere surface rights.
such as were provided for against my
protest in the stock raising homestead
law. have long been known. but the
idea of giving the entryman under ag-
ricultural laws "A real proprietorship in
lands that may have great mineral
values. and completely securing him
in his right as against a mineral claim
ant. was new and novel to our legisla-
ton. and only worked ont by long and
careful study and secured through
great effort and against much opposi-
ton
Under these laws. the agricultural
entryman secures "A good title to lands
known or believed to be valuable for
minerals. upon which he could have Sc
cured no right at all under agricultural
entry prior to their passage. The safe
guards thrown around the agricultural
proprietor are such that in the ma
