games, though they come as some
thing of an anti-climax to "a
season far spent, may go a long
way toward determining both all
American and championship honors.
The Army Navy affair, of course.
looms as the one big event OF the
seasons end The service team
scrap always has been classic,
and each passing year sees it
gather q bit more color and promi-
hence. Played this year in Balti-
more, within an hours ride of the
National Capital. 1t seems probable
that it will attract even more Of
than usual.
or the other remaining games,
the Pennsylvania Cornell affair on
Thursday attracts the most atten-
tiOn-chiefly because Of the bear
ing it may have on the Eastern
title claims. Penn, along with
Yale and Dartmouth has a record
lInblemished by defeat. Yale and
Dartmouth have finished their
scIheduIes-the Blue with two tie
games against il and Dartmouth
with one. Pennsylvania, there
fore, faces the necessity of win
over Cornell to continue in the
vanguard of the football elect.
And a win over Cornell is no
easy assignment.
Nor will the Syracuse Columbia
tilt at the Polo Grounds be without
it's boosters. Syracuse, with only
one defeat against it, looms as one
of the best elevens in the East-and
Columbia seems to have tossed off
it's athletic lethargy under the
undying inspiration Of the late
Percy Haughton.
Whether the Blue and White
will be able to stop the Meehan
horde successfully is moot ques-
tion-but that they will be able to
make a real game of it seems GER
tain. Nor does the promised speed
contest between Bowman and Kop-
pisch tend to detract from the
appeal of the game.
Notre Dame, recognized as the
national champion by most critics,
will close its season in Pittsburgh
with a game against Carnegie Tech:
IL the Irish can carry on TO victory
there, they will have established
a seasons record that will stand
out as the best in years.
Football tradition has always
| been that no team can init its
stride I'm early October and main.
| tain that pace unbrOken to the
seasons end. Coach ROclne,
this year, is In fair way of PROV
ing the falIacy of that belief: And
a victory over Carnegie Tech will
explode the theory absolutely.
And ON the face of the seasons
record there seems little reason
to believe that Carnegie can sue
coed where Princeton and Army
and Nebraska and Wisconsin has
failed.
All of which doesn't yet clear up
the matter of team superiority.
Yale, Dartmouth and Penn seem to
have equal claim to Eastern honors.
California and Stamford are nip
and tuck at the other frontier.
And Chicago, though it has a per;
centage title in the conference. GER
tainly does not stand alone as the
best the conference affords. Only
I Notre Dame has ridden rough shod
to unquestioned supremacy. Truly,
! it has been a unique season.
And Saturday will see the finish
when the Army gray takes the field
against the Navy, with official Wash
ington looking on.
After that-well, it will take a
brave man to pick an all-American
team out of the vast abundance of
material that presents itself.

THE NUMBER OF WOMEN
CRIMINALS GROW RAPIDLY
Commit Acts Requiring Maximum of
Courage, Says Writer.

Recently the criminal courts have
been occupied with cases OF major I'M
portance in which women have been
the offenders, demonstrating that in
crime, as in everything else, there is
change and progress-or should 1t be
retrogression? writes The London
Mail"
Call it what you will, the fact re-
mains that today the police forces OF
the world can no longer afford to 1g-
more or even treat lightly the female
element i'll crime. This does not mean
that they have done so in the past; d
good detective never ignores any
thing, but women have not hitherto
been regarded seriously as perpetra-
tors of offenses requiring maximum
of physical courage.
Now, however, there is a decided
change in the criminal activities o.
women. They are challenging compar-
ison with men in the nature and dar-
ing of their operations. In England
there have been a number OF women
burglars, a nefarious practice which
demands courage and skill rarely
credited to women. Then it has been
frequently suggested that woman is
the moving spirit in some of the high
~ organized and cleverly controlled
gangs of swindlers and drug syndi-
Gates preying upon the public-indeed
there is hardly any criminal activity
today in which women are not alleg-
ed to be indulging.
What is the explanation? Some peo-
pie find it an aftermath OF the war
Jour years of broadening experience
for women in which they found them
selves able to perform duties regarded
exclusively as the tasks OF men-four
years which developed their spirit OF
adventure, now finding outlet in crime

HghSchoolNeOs

/ Wednesday at chapel exercises Mr..
Monts made several announcements
OF great interest to the members OF
the school, One was to the effect that
a large quantity OF candy, had been
bought and would be sold at school
for the purpose of increasing the
funds OF the athletic association. The
sale will be a competitive one, the
four persons making the most sales to
receive a prize. 1t is planned to sell
all the candy before Christmas.
Stressing the importance of more
courtesy in school each senior was
asked to write list OF five courtesies,
which would be handed to the teach
err and read in chapel next Wednes-
day. No one will dispute the fact that
an excess of courtesy is possible.
A game of basket ball is scheduled
for next Saturday night between the
Dawson five and the Albany aggrega
ton The team is receiving excellent
coaching, and is putting in several
hours a day in hard practice. The
game Saturday promises to be a hum
mer If you enjoy a good basket ball
game you should make plans to at
tend this one.
The Glee Club.
The past several weeks the high
school column has not carried any
Glee club news, and it is possible that
you people think we have been idle.
We have been hard at work, however,
and will prove the fact when you see
our show.
The caste for Miss Cherry Bios
som" has been completed and the
names of the members OF the chorus
given out, and all that remains is to
learn the show and then put it on. We
are hard at work doing that now, 1t
has been decided that Miss Virginia
Peddy will take the part of the Cher
ry Blossom" Five rehearsals are had
by the members of the club each week
and our instructor has kindly offered
her home for rehearsals when neces-
sary. The members of the club desire
to express their appreciation for this
kindness. Despite the fact that we are
hard at work the play which we will
give is such difficult one that it will
be the last of January before it can
be presented. Save your nickels and
dimes and see the best amateur music
al show you have ever seen when we
present ours.
