for coaching the Santa Anna (Calit.)
high school .ball team.
Using ones athletic ability for pay
i crime, according to the best
rules for an amateur Cole was de-
clared ineligible.
California then proceeded to up
set the plans Of Southern California
by defeating that team to 0.
The loss of Cole was Il severe
handicap. coming almost on the eve
OF the big game Incidentally, the
pathological effect on the South
ern California team was not for
good 1t fought good fight but the
loss Of Cole probably was the diff
ference between victory and de-
feat.
While California was upsetting
the dope by defeating Southern
California. Oregon was handing a
rude shock to University of Wash
ineton.
While realizing the strength OF
Oregon, Washington figured victory
certain. The final result was Orc
gon :, Washington 3.
The defeat Of Washington by Ore
eon was greater reversal of form
than the California Southern Calf
o, MIA game
Washington prior to the game Sc
cretly cherished the belief that it had
a chance to go through the season
Withou, a defeat The team was
being pointed for the California
game.
Instead of quitting after the Ore
eon upset, Washington worked all
the harder for the California battle.
1t was repaid with TT tie against
Andy Smiths great team.
There is simply no way TO figure
the 1924 brands of football. The
experts are being constantly shown
W in their deductions. The wise
guy always picks the breaks as the
deciding issue.
The break between three of the
big colleges of the coast over the
declaring of Bill Cole of Southern
Calif,nia a professional is TO be re-
GREETED.
No doubt the colleges must draw
the line closely I'M the matter of
amateur and professional
However. it doesn't seem fair that
using ones athletic ability for pay
should be any different than carry
ing ice or washing dishes.

Urged Not to Remove
Patients From State

A protest of the alleged intention
of the United States veterans bureau
to remove a large number of govern
ment patients from the Soldiers Tu-
bercular sanitarium at Sulphur, Okla.
was made the subject of resolution
passed by the executive committee of
the Department of Oklahoma, Ameri-
can Legion. The Legionnaires ask the
veterans bureau to refrain from re-
moving the veterans on the grounds
that they should be hospitalized in
their home state, as they now are, and
in ready access of their families and
friends. The Legionnaires further
point out that Oklahoma's facilities to
care for the war disabled are "as fine
as can be found in the United States,
and no advantage could be obtained
by transferring the patients from the
Sulphur institution to hospitals in Ari'
IONA and New Mexico.

Make Sure Spring Clips
Are Put Together Tight

If any proof be required of the
necessity of keeping spring clips tight
it may be found in the fact that
neither dealers nor manufacturers
will replace a spring that is broken
through the center bolt hole-the
place where most springs give way,
observes a contributor to the Ameri-
can Motorist, who goes on to say;
''Breakage of this nature is taken
as evidence that the spring clips were
not kept tight. The spring clips are
subject to bending in two directions,
with the result that excessive strains
are imposed at the weakest point,
which in this case is at the bolt hole.
THE spring clips should be seated
perfectly tight by drawing the nuts
up as close as possible with a wrench
of such size that there is no question
of their being tight. 1t is well also TO
bear in mind that even nut secured
by lock washer viii ultimately work
loose; hence the necessity for looking
over your spring clips now and then.

NEW NATIONAL VICE
COMMANDER ON JOB

Frank II. Mcfarland, one of the new
national vice commanders Of the
American Legion, graduated from po-
sitions of great responsibility in the
organization of the department of
Kansas to the national organization
His election to national office is due
to the record he made as command
er of the Kansas department He is
said by those most familiar with his
work to have given the department
one of its outstanding administrations
1t was during his term of Office that
the department of Kansas raised $780,
600 for the establishment of American
Legion Children's Billet No. 2, near
independence, Kan. A tract of 1888
acres on which it is now being con-
structed was donated by a publicspir-
tied citizen. This billet, with No. 1
at Otter Lake, Mich, are features in
the Legion's program to care for the
5000 orphans o. World war service
men who now demand attention.
The new national vice commander
has been active in Legion work in
Kansas since the first organization of
the Legion. He was the first post adj
jutant of Capitol Post No. /, Topeka,
Kan, serving until he moved to Wash
fngton, Kan, where he now maintains
his residence. He was for two years

In Maryland Tests just completed
show that the new cement hardens

to the standard cement formerly used
This latter requires hardening for y
days before it may be used. Use Of

New Legion Posts in 81
Department of Mexico

About every new moon shines upon
a new American Legion post in the
department of Mexico. The latest
post to be formed in the Department.
,caliente" is Juasteca post No. 6, which
is located at Mata Redonda, Vera
Cruz, across the Panuco river from
Tampico. Other posts will be formed
soon, as signatures for an application
for charter at Vera Cruz are now
being obtained and the American vice
consul in charge at Salina Cruz is en-
deavoring to obtain a sufficient num-
Der of signatures to organize a post in
that city. Tampico post is the largest
post in any country outside of the
United States, with membership of
362, which represents gain of more
than a hundred members during the
past year.

TO HONOR PARENTS
OF INDIANA HEROES

One of the oldest log cabins in the
country, which stands on the Gillian
farm in Lawrence county, Ind, will
be made a shrine dedicated to the
memory of Indiana's supreme war
mother and father, Mr.. and Mrs. David
p. Gillian, of Leesville, who lost three
sons in the World war, according to
plans announced by the Gillian post of
the American Legion, Bedford, Ind.
Gillian post, named in honor of the
Gillian boys, announced the plans for
the shrine Immediately after the
father, David p. Gillian, seventy-one
years old, dropped dead at his home
at Leesville recently.
State records show Mr.. and Mrs.
Gillian to have been the most sorely
tried and the only parents in the state
to have given and lost three sons to
their country's service in the World
war.
The three boys were the only boys
of the family and entered the army in
the spring of 1913 Frank Gillian of
Company B, One Hundred and Twelfth
infantry, the youngest of the family
was killed in action in August, 1918.
Imam, the first to have enlisted was
reported among the missing during the
Meuse-Argonne offensive; his death
was substantiated later. William, the
elder son, was gassed but was sent
on to Germany after the armistice was
signed, where, he claimed in his last
letter, he was poisoned by the family
with whom he was billeted. The three
Gold Stars mother lasted but short
while after her last son was laid away.
The mother, father and three sons are
all buried in the family plot at Lees
vile.
The old Gillian cabin is of historic
interest as 1t is the inn which stood
near the old fort which the early set
tiers built for protection against the
Indians. Mr.. and Mrs. Gillian lived
there and the children were all born
there. Before his death Mr. Gillian ex-
pressed the wish that the Lawrence
County Historical society preserve the
old building. Legionnaires declare 1t
will be made shrine.

To Reduce to Minimum
Hliteracy in u. S. A

The Americanism commission at ma
tional headquarters of the American
Legion is making a determined fight
to reduce to a minimum illiteracy in
the United States. The commission
has been battling this menace in Amer
lea through its American education
week, held annually through presiden-
tial proclamation Since it was inaug-
urated in 1921, the United States has
come up from the eleventh in illit-
eracy among the enlightened nations,
to ninth.
AS regards illiteracy in the United
States, Garland w. Powell, director
of the Americanism commission and a
member of the national illiteracy COM
mission of the United States, revealed
the following information
Figures based on actual tests show
that one out of every sixteen persons
over ten years of age in the United
States cannot read or write; 6 per
cent of the population of our country
over ten years of age have had no
schooling whatever, and 1881, 800 per-
sons in the United States over ten
admit that they cannot write-how
many did not admit it?
Approximately one out of every
four men drafted and examined for
military service during the World war
was illiterate.
"We spend over seventeen times
more for luxuries in our nation than
we do for education. In 1923, in 261
cities of 5000 population or more,
there was reported a shortage of more
than 100000 seats in the schools.
1.-The Americanism commission in
connection with its American educa-
ton week made it point 10 en-
tighten the public to these portentious
conditions in the hope that the level
of illiteracy in the United States may
be lowered through education. In our
American education week we set aside
a day known as Illiteracy day., at
which time all interested organiza-
lions and agencies considered IL
literacy problems and took construc-
tive steps to minimize that menace in
this country"

Cure for Intake Leakage

Leakage around the stems of the in
take valves usually manifests itself in
a falling off in power, difficult start
ing and misfring at small throttle
openings. A makeshift remedy lies in
fitting the valve-stem guides with
some form of MISUNDERSTANDING
means. This may be either series
of narrow grooves cut in the valve
stem and into which graphite and
oil paste has been rubbed so as to fill
them, or stuffing boxes may be fitted
at the outer ends of the guides. The
lattcF is the more permanent and sat
isfactory job, in that should the guide
year considerably the nut may be
irawn down upon the packing, there

gion of Michigan City, Ind, wants all

Shift Gears at Crossings

More than one motorist has been
killed by stalling his motor on the
tracks in front of an oncoming train.
The driver slows down when APP
preaching the tracks, believes he has
time to get across, and then fails to
start his motor up sufficiently to ne
gotiate the rougher going across the
tracks.
The safest thing to do is to shift
into second or low before starting
across the tracks, and you can then
be sure of keeping going when going
ahead may be all-important.

Interesting Points
on Parking a Motor

Contrary to many a drivers
! experience, it is easier to park a
car on a hill than on the level
! if you know how. On a hill it
is not necessary to shift from
low to reverse. or vice versa, for
the forward and backing move
ments. The car will coast in
, one direction. depending upon
the hill. 1t will be necessary to
use the brakes, but then that is
necessary in most parking any
way.
. NO parking signs are fire.
, quently used to mark the boun-
