DOCTOR MAKES WOMEN

Famous Vienna Professor Has
Method OF Restoring
Youth.

London, Aug British medical in
vestigators returning from Vienna an
nounce that Professor Steinach is now
extremely busy rciuvenating elderly
men and women. Professor Steinach's E
experiments with rodents have been
know to scientists throughout tho world
for some time, his most remarkable
achievement in this direction being to
give one scnile rat new three leases on
life. The application Of his sytem for
arresting decay in the human body is
now claimed to be equally successful.
Professor Steinachs operation, which
gives man weight, vigor and youth,
can be performed in a few minutes
with the aid Of a local anesthctic, and
in two hours the patient is able TO
resume his ordinary life. The operation
for women nccessitatcs few weeks of
rest.
After the operation white hair turns
to its natural color, wrinkles disappear,
the face fills out and takes on fresh
color. The brain of the patient is also
reinvigorated.
Professor Steinach's method for men
involves no grating. He has appar-
emily proved that by merely tying up
the duct of certain life-giving gland
an old mans vigor is renewed within
six months With women the opera
tion is the same in principle but neces-
states the grating of fresh gland

FIND FRIED RATTlERS
MOST TOOTHsOME DISH
Penn. State Students Of For
estry Seek Snakes haunts
for Summer Camp.

Bcllefonte, Pa, Aug. S.-The young
men studying forestry at Pennsylvania
State College won wide publicity and
considerable notoriety last summer for
eating rattlesnakes. I was not case
of "eat 'em alive" with the young for.
estcrs, but a cultivated taste formed
OF several years habit. The young
men, under the leadership OF Professor
John A. Ferguson, an expert forester
and woodman, captured the snakes
while pursuring their regular work and
then made Of them the piece dc resist
ance Of an epicurean feast.
Particular care was taken that the
snakes did not bite one another, and,
after being killed and skinned, they were
fried and served like eels, and, accord
ing to the foresters, were delicious IN
flavor and made really excellent eating.
For alnumber of years the young men
have pitched their camp on the old
Washington Furnace grounds IN the
eastern end Of Centre county, where
they had no trouble in securing plenty
of rattlers to make at least one good
feast, but this year only a small num-
Der Of the forestry class went to their
old camp. Some Of the mountain na-
tives anXiously watched for the custom
ary roundup of rattlesnakes and the
usual feast, but nothing of the kind
took place, and the reason finally de-
veloped in the fact that the ratuesnakes
have peered out. According to actual
count only eight rattlers have been seen
in that section this year, and the na-
tives ascribe the fact to the persistent
hunt and kill CT the young foresters in
past years.
Whether the foresters had any ink
ling of the scarcity of snakes in that
neighborhoodt this year or not, Is not
known, but the bulk Of the class went
into camp this year on Stone Creek in
the Seven Mountains, where rattlers
still roam at large in great numbers,
and there they were able to enjoy their
usual feast OF fried rattler, much to
the astonishmcnt of the scattered in
habitants of that section who have al
ways believed the rattler only one gen.
Grafton removed from Satan.

"Sook" Jackson who played such a
strong defensive football game
against Dickinson will also be out
for basketball. Jackson was a stu

BY "BO" McNnILIN,
All-American Quarterback

Many colleges are being accused
Of over-playing athletics. This aues-
tion has caused many worries 20 the
college presidents. Il r. OF vital in
terest 10 all OF those who are inter
ested in the advancement OF public
education In our colleges and univer-
stiles. I would like 20 put In a good
word IN favor OF the college athlete.
believe that the athletes in the
American colleges OF today have
proved that they are a very impor-
tant cog IN the school life.
Now Il Is not my intention 20 infer
that athletics are as important as
the academic program. but they do
help TO promote an interest In the
clsss work. Nowadays nearly all OF
ne schools require their athletes 70
have a certain high scholastic stand
ing before they are eligible for a
contest. This. OF course. helps 70
keep the students interest in his
work up TO a higher point. Il is
mighty hard on a good man 20 have
70 stay out OF contest on account
OF low grades and the ones who
amount 10 anything az all win work
their heads of Just 10 keep of the
delinquent list.
Many will advance the argument
that he will not have time 20 spend
many hours on his studies after CIV
ing so much time 20 the work on the
field. But ~ you will notice the
scholastic records made by the ma
iority OF the noted athletes you will
find that their class work Is far
above the average.
During my four years al Centre
College there we're two Of our star
football players who graduated as
valedictorians OF their classes. The
scholastic standing OF our team was
above the average as compared with
that Of other organizations. Of
course, there we're reasons for this.
The honor and self-respect OF an
athlete demand that he maintain
the grade required by the faculty. |
Another line OF reasoning that will
usually work out Is that II takes

athlete.

subject is to bring out the necessity

This play has for more than 20
years been known as the 'statue Of

formation. The alleged kicker takes
the pass from center. The opposing
ends and linemen are permitted 20
aft through. All rush for the al
legged kicker. He hands the ball 20
one OF his mates IN the back field as
the tacklers swarm down on him and
the runner, as you see, has an eCcsl-
lent chance OF getting through.
When the forward pass was writ
ten into the football rules the play
became a finer weapon for Yost. In
stead OF taking a punt a forward
pass was faxed. The alleged passer
drew back his arm as II to throw
and, after the defense sifted through
and he was about TO be tackled. one
OF his mates grabbed the ball and
ran. Until he took the ball this mate
was apparently intent only on pro-
tecting the passer by blocking.

the majors to force them 10 agree

In the past two years the Coast
magnates have been paid close 10

and they want 70 continue having

the moral effect that It might havo

minors. The association hasn't been
developing players for several
years.
