Jim THORPE is THROUGH
WITH FOOT BALL, HE SAYS

Jim Thorpe. the great Indian who
made foot ball history while at Car
Isle and later as captain and star
back of the Canton Bulldogs and
Cleveland Tigers. announces that he
has retired from active competition.
I've sung my swan song in foot
ball. Thorpe declared. Il have laid
aside a tidy sum, and feel that it is
about time l retired from active
playing.
MY decision is not influenced by
desire to avoid the hard knocks of
the game, for I love it above all
others. and am confident l could con-
tinue in the game for five years longer
without appreciable let-down.
1t is simply that l feel I have
played long enough and mean to turn
my attention to hunting and fishing
and less strenuous sports"

ALUMNI MUST
AID FOR CLEAN SPORTS

II Brown University alumni be-
lieve that the mind OF a Thomas
Edison is worth as much to a college
as the mind of a Babe Ruth such will
be the faith of the undergraduates.
President Faunce declared before the
New England Sons of Brown in an ad-
dress at the Boston City Club.
"1f the alumni sneer at music. art
and poetry and cultivate a hard
boiled attitude, such will be the at
titude of the undergraduates" he
added.
President Faunce said that for the
next ten years Brown would not at
tempt to handle more uan 1900 un-
dergraduates each year, although the
college did not desire TO shut out any
ambitious American boy. He asserted
that alumni associations could help in
shaping the standards of student
honor and in discouraging proselyt-
ing for foot ball stars or the use Of

the warm open fall has permitted or

than that OF the longer month or Octo-

operations Is perhaps best illustrated by
comparison with November 1921, the
percentage OF gain compared with~those
of a year ago exceeding that recorded
In any previous period since the peak
month of June when the total construc-
tion planned for was slightly In excess
OF s25O,0 900. The November total
was larger than that reported In any
