other real stars lose their athletic abil-
ity before they get to college, either
because they were burned out" in high
school by too much work, or because
they are just naturally athletic in their
teens and "old men" in their twenties.
Still other high school stars fail in
college because the diversified life of
college causes them to scatter their
attention and energies upon so many
and varied interests.
Not the least of these varied inter-
ests are girls and "dates." AS result
the classroom and the football field
are equally neglected, and the erst-
while high school star becomes a medi-
OGRE man on the last string Of the
squad.
In brief, granting that the high
school star has the potentialities requi-
site for him to make the varsity he
must devote his undivided attention to
a two-part curriculum of studies and
football, at least during the football
season, If he would continue his high
school success in football on through
his college career

BROKEN PURPOSES

THE very -pleasurable ease with
= which many of us break our higher
purposes and turn aside in feverisi
haste in the pursuit Of some elusive
object, does not argue well for our
future content or prosperity.
The gray hairs that fringe our tenn
pies and the hard lines about our
mouths, bear intimate relationship to
the pitiful job we have made in hold
ing steadfast to fixed course.
We humans, at least some millions
of us, are tickle, impetuous and impa-
tient, inclined upon the slightest prov
ocation to change our minds over
night, at sudden veer of the golden
weather-cock.
When we wake In the morning, we
are not quite sure whether we are
steering our craft toward the north
star or heading it for the southern
cross.
But we do know that the purpose
Of yesterday is gone. We have new
one which appeals directly to our lofty
ambition, so much so, indeed, that we
draw In our chin, puff out our breast
and stride briskly down the street, for
getting in our elation to acknowledge
the smiling mods and CHEEKY good
mornings Of our friends.
BY night our gertrude has some
what withered before the intense beat
Of cogitation, and we are filled with
doubt.
For years and years we have gone
around and round with the compass.
But on this occasion everything is diff
ferent. We cannot move.
Our great project, for which we
have been outstanding our strength, is
hidden somewhere in the mist, our
sight is defective, our hands are I'M
steady and there is tug at the heart
that we cannot much longer endure.
Event has succeeded event, not as
we expected, but as our solicitous
friends had foretold. Our old smiling
habit is gone. We are discouraged,
down in the depths.
The world goes on merrily. There
is no tenderness in its heart. 1t cares
not whiting whether we sigh or
sing, whether we are clothed In purple
or in tatters and rags.
And some of the merriest are carry
ing load in their souls, because they,
too, have broken their purposes. But

Detours Bring Customers.

The motoring public is frequently
annoyed by signs marked "Detour"
which compel them to leave good

They are even more annoyed when the

quick to grasp the situation, fashioned

Rabbit Ears" Cause Of
Muff by Sherwood Magee

Sherwood Magee, who in his good
days was sure death on fly balls, once
said that the few balls he muffed
which he thought should not have been
scored errors were lost due to the fact
that he had rabbit ears. Il remember
one case In particular" Sherry related.
"a high fly was hit which l stood
under the edge of the bleachers to
catch. I had 1t judged perfectly, had
my hands fixed just where it would
fall might have shut my eyes and
caught it.
"But for some reason there was quiet
in the bleachers. When the ball was
two feet from the pocket had formed
to snare it, a sunfsh shouted in
voice that would have penetrated ton
of steel, You'll drop 1t, you poor son
of humming bird
Il did drop that ball, and to this
day don't know why muffed it.
Nearly every catch an outfielder is
called upon to make gets him the
razzberry from the bleacherites. We
don't usually hear word that is said
--or If we do we are not conscious Of
It.
Il repeat that every legitimate out
field error I made was caused by q
remark Of a bleacherite that / did
hear"
About the only thing left is to locate
a moral, and 1t is: IF you desire to
become champion in any sport, con-
centrate so thoroughly that you will
not have rabbit ears

BIG FOOTBALL NEED
is LOVE FOR SPORT
Genuine Liking for Game Is Most
Necessary Quality.

genuine liking for football is
most necessary quality if player
hopes to be star, writes Aubrey De-
vine of Iowa in the Chicago Evening
Post. True, some football players
reach stardOm who are not crazy about
the strenuous game. Unusual natural
ability makes it possible However,
such players would be of far greater
value to their team If they really liked
the sport.
With the liking for the game goes
the determination or will to do. Some
will call 1t nerve, others will use the
trifie vulgar yet very appropriate
word, "guts.'
Success in college football rests upon
the same broad foundation as does sue
cess in any other line Of endeavor. If
man does not enjoy playing football
for its own sake and Is not possessed
Of the will power to perfect himself in
the game to the very limit of his ca
pacity to do so, he can no more expect
to reap the rewards of successful
football career than he could expect to
be successful in any other line of work
in which he might engage in half
hearted manner. In other words, he
must be willing to pay the price.
Finally, to sum it all up in answer to
the question, why high school stars
do not make good in college," we may
say that some never were stars while

:UNSELFISEINESS'
By GRACE E. HALL

n SET myself task: Never to ask
For what I did not just as freely
give.
No kindness, sweet consideration:
aught
In attitude, in gentleness, in thought
Nothing, save what in full return from
me
Another might expect as bounteously.
Then day by day my life began to
prove
How selfish and how narrow was my
groove,
For one by one the blessings / had
known
Took wings, and to another realm had
flown;
How little I had given through the
daysl
How much demanded In thousand
waysI
So humbled by my own acknowledge
ment,
set myself task and to it bent;
ceased to talk of faults by others
shown,
Aware at last of greater ones-my
own;
Asked not of sympathy and love part
Unless / found the same within my
heart.
And 10 there is bluer sky DER head,
The birds sing sweeter than they did
before;
And each day kindly thoughts to me
are sped,
And loving hands come knocking at
my door,

for his employees are among those
which were believed as impossible as
is the same line of political relief
which Taft could not have done for
the reason of a president having no
power. In brief, there is a notion
abroad that Ford in the presidency
would find a way, and a short one
at that, Of doing those things which
self-styled political experts have said
could not be done.
These lines are not written to es-
pouse the cause of Ford for presi-
dent. They are not written in the
belief that he will ever hold tle Of
flee. But they have a purpose, which
is to direct the attention of the men
who do run this government 10 the
fact that they must cease their ener
gies leading to the ultimate enslave-
ment of this vast populace and give
the common American his dues. In
the forthcoming campaign these pc
litical managers and their candidates
must not antagonize this American
spirit which today is finding express
ion in straw votes overwhelmingly in
favor of the Detroit inventor, manu-
facturer and giver Of a square deal
to the men on his payroll. They
must not vote away further billions
of the peoples money as g%ratuities to
the thieying railways that have rob-
bed the American nation of its sub
stance in other billions. They must
put forth men for Office who stand
up and fight as the gladiator Jackson
fought when it was plotted to fasten
upon this republic a so-called gov
eminent bank, owned by favored pri-
vate interests, having as q part Of its
power the right to issue and control
the currency Of this nation.
If you would destroy the Ford
symptom, remove the cause.
