GIVE MEN WORK

Twenty men were just given work on the city sewer job. Many more need work Economists who are op- timstic in their prophecies of better times soon warn, nevertheless, that in spite of the hopeful outlook for later in the spring there will be short period now, just before the spring work opens up, when men will need chance to earn possibly more than ever. They point out that the winter has taken from tbem what cash they had, if they were fortunate enough to have any laid by and they are at the end of their resources. It is pos sible that some who managed pretty we'll last winter are now, for the first time, at a loss to know how to make ends meet They will be all right, it is to be hoped, when warm weather work is in full swing, but this weather transition period is hard time for them.
 With this in mind people are urged to continue to keep the unemployed men and women in mind and to try to give them work to do. The muni- cipal employment bureau at city hall is still functioning. When anyone has work to be done the fact should be made known to those in charge there that this period of quiet before what is hoped will be the storm of renewed constructive activity comes.
 Remember today, every day, the unemployed.

N. D. TRACK MEN TO

Both Teams Weaker Than
Last Year-Closely Con

A track meet OF great interes.
should result when Coach Rockne
OF Notre Dame leads his squad TO
Urbana 10 meet the IlUni on SaJur-
day. Illinois is not so strong a. last
year and OF course. Notre Dame is
much weaker Nevertheless. there
viii be some pretty performances
in several events. The running
should be close in every race from
tho 50-yard dash 20 the two-mile.
Notre Dame will enter Gus Desch
in the first event, and probably Bill
Hayes. There are several crack
dash men on the lists of the Ilini
and the irish stars vii have TO step
some TO cop both frs and second
place as they did in the Wisconsin
meet
The quarter mile should develop
into the best race of the day. Sew
eral of the four good quartermilers
who performed with Illinois last
year have returned. Against these,
RoCkne will send Desch. Montague,
Heffernan and Walsh Notre Dame
had bad luck in the quarter I'm the
Wisconsin meet, but the men should
hit their real stride Saturday. Every
one OF the four men mentioned has
done and can 90 under SO regularly.
Banner Shows Form.
Fritz Banner Will also be watched
with interest. Fritz has almost been
running away from himself this
year, showing a remarkable increase
of ability over previous years. His
race last Saturday was one Of the
piettiest distance runs ever witness
ed in the Notre Dame gym. and the
student body is pulling for him 10

Illinois has plenty OF milers as
usual, but even in this event, Notre
Dame will not have to take a back
| seat. Paul Kennedy has been inn
| proving rapidly every day. He ran
two good races last Saturday. de-
spite the fact that he was rather
roughly treated, and he will place
/ high at Urbana without a doubt.
I NOtre Dame VIII make a second trip
/ to Urbana on track purposes the
/ following Saturday when Rocknes
squad will enter in the Illinois relay
games. Due to the showing of the
Irish mile relay against Wisconsin
Saturday. it is looked upon as the
likely winner Of its event.

Ne70 Yankee Star
Leads 'em All in
Point of Service
Stellar Infielder Has Not
Missed Game Since 1916
832 Contests in Row.
BY BILLY EVANS.

Everett Scott. recently ecquired
by the New York Americans. is the
iron man" Of baseball.
Playing shortstop. perhaps the
most dangerous position on the dia-
mond with the possible exception of
catcher, Scott has taken part in S32
consecutive games.
Aside from piling up a record for
consecutive comes covering a period
of six years, Scott has also produced
another record for that period, by
leading the short felders in fielding
for six consecutive years.
Scott, who is one of the most re-
markable shortstops i'm the history
Of the game, also holds a few rec
ords in the fielding line.
In 1919 Scott played 13S games
and made only II errors. When
one considers the Importance OF the
shortstopping position and the many
difficult plays that he is called upon
to make that feat is a marvellous
one
During the season OF 1919 Scott
handled 276 putouts and 423 assists
perfectly. Likewise he holds the
best fielding record for a shortstop
covering a season5's play In 1913
and 1919 his average was $40.
Not Husky Player
When SCOTS physique is Clnsid
cred his endurance record is all the
more remarkable. He is anything
but husky yet he stands up year
after year under the strain without
the slightest semblance of a break.
Ia addition Scott is q player who
is constantly taking chances. No
drive is too difficult for him TO at
tempt to handle. lie makes difficult
plays look so easy that he is seldom
given the credit that his work de-
serves.
a shortstop is called upon TO make
more touch plays than any other
player on the team. Touch plays
are always dangerous, because the
fielder i'm handling the bali must face
the sharp spikes of the base-run-
ner.

Since the base-runner has his GER

at the way Scott would make such
plays and escape injury.
OF course scott is not invulner-
able. He is often injured. but MS
love of the game and old determine

would be under a doctors care.
Everett Scott is a remarkable bal
player in more ways than one.
