Stabilizing Matrimony

Acting for the General Federation of Women's clubs
he has introduced bill in the senate providing for
federal marriage and divorce law and resolution pro-
posing enabling constitutional amendment that such
law, when passed. would meet the test Of the courts
Advance articles have said Of this proposed law
that it would make divorce more difficult That seems
hardly borne out by later reports Five for d.
would be recognized and these while not quite so
liberal those of Nevada for example would work little
hardship on any couple to whom revoke of the yoke

The fact that various states refuse to recognize each
others marriage and divorce laws has led to undoubted
njustces. Under this uniform law those who are mar
RED In state would be considered legally married in
every other state Children who legitimate in one
state would be legitimate in all states Mixups of prop

The new law does make marriage more difficult than
1t is now in many states No will argue that this
not good thing. At the present time II states have
no minority age limit for marriage, while in states
the legal marriage age for girls is IL years and for boys
Is years.
There is prohibition of marriage of the feebeinded
in 10 states and in 35 states there is no prohibition Of

though slightly older, does bring
the team average up to twenty one
years. In actual playing experience
as we'll as age, the Generals are
decidedly inferior to w. V. ". OF
the eleven men who take the field
against West Virginia Saturday,
five will be playing their first season
Of varsity football.
It is interesting to note that the
Generals have not been scored on
in the last three games, which
makes the defense look strong on
paper. In reality, the Blue and
White has had its back to the wall
on many occasions, and had been
forced continually to fight defen-
sively within it's own 20yard line.
To date, the present season is
much like last season. The first
half the Generals came through
with a clean slate; the second half
they started on the down grade,
losing three games in succession.
Whether or not the present SEIZED
ule will witness a repetition re-

seem due to meet a tartar in Doc

mean disaster.

NEALE SEEKING
STRONG ENDS:
FOR CLASH

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, Nov.
s.-Several Virginia backfieli men
have been given a trial in the
end positions this week by Coach
Earle Neale in his efforts to
strengthen the attack of the Orange
and Blue before encountering the
strong Georgia team in Athens on
Saturday.
Sam Maphis, Don Darby, and
Charlie Groseclose are among those
have been transferred from behind
the line to a place on one OF the
wings. Maphis has worked well
all season as a halfback and he had
outpunted the opposing kicker in
every Virginia game this season
but he possesses such a well.bal
anced combination sof speed and
weight that 1t is not at all unlikely
that he will turn out to be q better
end than back. The other two
men are playing on the varsity
squad for their first season.
Benny Arpold's passing ability Is
one Of the chief assets Of the Vir
ginians this season and this viii
become more important factor
than ever In the play of the Orange
and Blue If Coach Neale can develop
more accurate receivers on bott
ends of the line. Arnolds ability Il
advance the ball by rushing and t.
punt and drop kick as well as tC
pass makes him one of the most
dangerous halfbacks in the South.
Though not as efficient in line
bucking Henry Foster Is, II any
thing, more accurate thrower lo
forward passes than any other mar
on the Virginia squad. In the st
Johns game alone three OF Foster.
passes were carried across the line
for touchdowns.
Virginia this season has more
backfieid material than there arr
men trying for places in the linz
and Coach Neale has already moved
several men forward in order &
strengthen the eleven.

PENN WRIT UALLY
SH0T-UPFOR
SATURDAY
Faces Eastonians With Posi-
bility Of Two Regulars
in Play.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. S.-With
perhaps the crisis Of its season
approaching in the game with
Lafayette on Saturday, the Penn
football team faces the situation
virtually Shot" according to
coaches and trainers. In fact, It
is 50 bad that there is chance
OF only two regular varsity play
.ers starting against the Easton-
ians. The climax came when John
Dern, veteran center and quarter
back, whose play has had a re-
markable influence on the back
field, was sent to the University
Hospital suffering with a. &31red
leg and from the effects OF high
fever. He Is one who will. not be
able to play against Lafayette, ac.
cording to DR.. Arthur Light, the
teams physician.
Furthermore, no attempt will be
made to get the varsity players to
fighting edge for the Lafayette
game. At the orders of Lawson
Robertson, team trainer, scrimmage
was limited to once q week last
week. Now he has ordered 1t dis
continued entirely for the varsity,
and the players will not be allowed
to have anything to do with things
gridiron.
The whole team with the excep-
ton Of two men is suffering a rum
down physical condition. This il
the result Of the extremely diff
cult schedule the men have been
through. Now the coaching staff
is compelled to face the situation
of easing up and taking a chance
on the Lafayette game in order to
get the varsity back into condition
for the clashes with Penn State
and Cornell.
Adams is ten pounds under
weight, and the entire team is SUIT
fering a serious loss Of poundaga.
Mckinley and Stephens will he
the only two varsity linemen to
start. Both scrimmaged against
the scrubs yesterday. Stephens had
been ordered to rest but reported
anyway. AS he Is anxious to play
Saturday, Young will probably start
the Western lad at end. Stephens
Is the best bet Penn has for ALL
American honors this year. If he
misses one or two games his
chances for the greatest honor in
football will be poor.

Tonaorrow, starting at the
Ellipse and finishing at the Coli
scum, you will have chance to
see q whole lot of NUTS, each
guarded carefully by an. adoring
pal, parading to the first show Of
Its kind ever seen here.
We used to own a blue-blooded
Airedale, and loved him, too, so
we can understand the sneer upon
the face of some man happening
to watch this parade. But the
boys in the parade should worry,
for all that. And the mutts-did
you ever see a mutt that worried
about anything?
Wait, we'll take that back. Yes,
the mutt does worry. It worries
when its little pal runs into
trouble and gets a whipping at
home, when it is ordered away
from the table just because it's
little pal slid it a choice bone
on the quiet when its little pal
is sick and it can't get into the
room because the doctor is against
it, when it's little pal is kept after
school or is lost and fails to show
up at the regular time for the
romp, yes, that's when the mutt
worries. And it's poor heart be-
meath the ragged coat breaks when
the white motor car comes and
leads a procession Of other black
cars away into the distance, much
farther than the mutt and IT'S
little pal have ever gone together,
skipping and playing and romping,
for the mutt is the true pal, the
real friend.
The blue-blooded canine, some
times, isn't even known to its
owner. It has a friend in a
handler, Of course, all dog men
loving their charges, but many a
prize winner doesn't know what
it means to run and play with
some little lad, sharing his
troubles and taking part in his
joys. The prize winner has a
home Of it's own, receives excellent
treatment, is guarded when ILL.,,
is protected from all foes, yes,
all that. But the prize-winning
blue-blooded dog has missed the
real joys of a dogs life, the fun
of being just a mutt loved by
some dirty little boy, sharing his
joys and his troubles and admired
more than anything else in the
world.
Yes. Washington is staging a
pal show today and tomorrow
at the Coliseum and you ought
not to miss it.

mo higher compliment could be
paid an. athlete than one such as
this-to be singled out by his

YALE AND Penn
MAY MEET

Remote Possibility EIevens
Will Again Clash on
Gridiron.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. s.-De
spite official denial from New
Haven, there is still "a possibility
that Yale and Penn may meet on
the gridiron next season.
A prominent official of the uni
versity said yesterday that ''there
is a remote possibility that Yale
and Pennsylvania will get togethe.
next year. Nothing satisfactory
has been done.' said the official
who saw Yale beat the Army last
Saturday. 1.-The game might and
might not be played. II 1T is it

lege played us this year or the
week previous. It must be the
fourth or fifth game for US.
Yale and Army will not break -
said this official. They will play
again next year and we will not
take West Points place on the
Blues schedule"
A former football star who was
present stated that Notre Dame
and the Army would play next year
at the Polo Grounds and that there
was absolutely no truth IN the re-
port that the two colleges had
broke off athletic relations.
It is stated authoritatively chat

y few years ago an Oliphant
came to the Army, and proceeded
to establish himself as the great
est back of them all. Yet Oliphant.
playing four years at Purdue, had
escaped the eye of Eastern critics
and had been dismissed with
word.
In the Princeton Chicago game
two years ago, Chicago built her
plays around a quarterback, Rom
ney, who was the sensation OF the
game. Fame found him overnight.
Yet this same Romney, unheralded
and unsung, had done just as great
work, just as sensational playing
for the University of Utah, previous
to coming to Chicago.
