CHARLESTON-Ab 25 persons were seriously injured when a part of the grandstand in the West Virginia Washington Lee game collapsed.
 PRINCETON Harvard defeated Princeton for the first time since 1916 Pfaffman kicked 25 yard drop in the third period after an opportunity was presented by Princeton. A tumble in the fourth period and a safety by Princeton when a poor pass caused Legendre to be tackled behind his own goal line added two more points for Harvard. Harvard showed superior defensive and offensive work through the entire game. In the third period Princeton clawed down the field for 45 yards before the Harvard men in tercepted the ball. A daring forward pass netted 35 yards for Harvard.
 Fifty-five thousand people viewed the game, which was filled with thrills from start to finish.

MANY WOMEN FILE
 EXEMPTION CLAIMS

The Anchorage Times states that of the twenty-two women of Anchorage and vicinity. whose names were drawn on the panel for the petit jury to serve at Valdez, eleven took advan- tage of the law permitting exemption because of sex.
 Very few Seward women drawn on the jury claimed exemption, although half of the men so drawn were ex- cused on one ground or another.
 Many officials throughout the terri tory are trying to work up sentiment against women jurors, for claiming exemption but fail to tell of the large number of men who are excused from duty.

SCIENCE IN THE o

William Jennings Bryan addressed
the legislature Of West Virginia not
long ago in support of a bill pro-
viding that school teachers paid by
taxation should not be allowed, IN
der the guise Of science, to teach
anything "thst undermines " .
= or impsirs belief in the Bible"
The bill apparently was intended to
relate to a literal belief. In that
cas- its trainers aimed at tine DOGGY
which Mr.. Bryan calls Darwin
ism"
This measure proposed much the
same restriction of scientific teach
ing as did that which failed by one
vote of passing in the Kentucky
legislature. 1t was one of a series
of efforts to regulate the attitude
of public schools favorably to lit
eral Bible belief as against scien-
tific findings.
Many people, believing in the re-
liability of science, regard such n
crusade with possibly too secure n
sense of amusement. Recent par
tial results in Kentucky, Oklahoma,
Oregon and even Minnesota do not
reveal the movement as entirely
negligible. The great and all too
familiar voice of Bryan might con-
ceivably swing some states of the
"solid South to declaring for an
anti-scientific standard of teaching
where science and the letter of the
Bible appear to conflict. The coun-
try has reason to want pupils every
where to learn what truth or doc
trine they need to make them good
citizens. 1t would create profound
cleavage il different sections should
come to form blocs with contrary
ideas.

Washington that there will be a sur
plus of more than 10000 900 for
the present fiscal year. This is prob
ably due to many causes, not least
of which is the business basis
on which the country has been
placed. The introduction, for the
first time in government life in this
country, of a budget system, under
Mr. Dawes, is undoubtedly the big
gest factor. 1t would be hard even
for a government expert to esti-
mate how much good this has done
and how much money was thereby
saved. But the saving must have
been tremendous.
Revenue has increased hrouo ,
reduction of the taxes. This shows
real vision of the kind that makes
Henry Ford cut prizes when he
wants money or is about to raise
wages. 1t also augurs well for n
further reduction of taxel. Re-
lieving the burden Of excessive
sur-taxes and excessive lprofit-taxes

greater total return :

The Atlantic Ocean has been
bridged by marine planes of the
United States navy. This country
has been crossed in a single hop in
the recent triumphal and epochal
achievement of L~ieuNenants Oak
ley G. Kelly and John A. Macready'
1t will not be long before the broad
Pacific will yield to the skill and
daring of airmen, mending their
planes as they 60. And a nonstop
flight around the world is not be-
Sond the conception of mar.
In all, or in most of this record
breaking, Americans have lead the
way. American airmen are making
history. The United States air-mail
planes are making history. And
while these things go on, Congress
is engaged in the great business of
uaarling time.
In many countries Of Europe
commercial flying is accomplish
ing wonders under subsidy of an in
terested, p~aternal government But
IN America even the merchant ms
rine can not get a subsidy. If it
were not individual initiative and
ability, flying in this country would
be only a question of government
mail and Army or Navy record-mak-
ers. And despite all individual eff
fort can do, our commercial flying
IS almost nil, while England, France
and other countries continue to es-
tablish air routes for passenger
traffic.
The London-Paris planes run
daily on short schedules between
these two great European capitals
but they run on government subsi-
dies which brings down the pres
emit high cost of air navigation to
within reach of the average business
traveller. Is there any such service
in this country? Is there a Wash
ington-New York passenger service,
for instance, or a Chicago-St. Louis
route, or n Los Angeles-San Fran
cisco? And in this country we par
ticusarly need commercial flying,
because of the greater distances be-
tween our large cities than those
which obtain for the most part on
the continent or in England.
Some day, and it is to be hoped
the day is not too far distant, there
will be transcontinental planes ply
ing commercially to take travellers
from the East Coast to the West
Coast on twenty-four hour SEIZED
ules. Just at present, one of the
best things Congress can do when
st gets back from its long vacation.
is TO grant a few government suo-
sides to aviation and stop this pol
icy of starving the progress and
