london, Jan. 9-Tibct has her fem mist leaders no less renowned in their own way than prominent women of western lands, according to Sir Charles Bell who recently described Iipetan customs to members of the Royal Geographical society.
 At one monastery Sir Charles. who spent a year in Tibet as q British gov ernment official, lunched with Doria Parmo, the most eminent woman, in Tibet, who. he said, was believed to nave the power of turning herself, and the fifty-nine other inmates, who were monks, not nuns into pigs.
 Sir Charles Bell spent year in Lhassa, the holy capital of Tbet,i A

city whoch foreigners rarely visit. On his way to Lhossa he met pilgrims who were covering every inch of the way by prostrating themselves. By this tedious bethod of travelling the pilgrim stretched himself on the ground, then makes a mark with his fingers little beyond his head. The pilgrim rises, walks to the mark, nut ters q prayer, and again prostrates himself Some pilgrims have been known to go 5000 miles like this and spend seven 10 ten years on the jour ney.
 In Lhassa Sir Charles witnessed the festival in which the Grand Lama's representative threw dice with the devils delegate for the luck of the year. If the devil wins. evil is sup posed 10 triumph. and the people suf- fer, but if his Holiness the Grand Lama wins, all is well for the year. The devil usually gets his due, how ever, for his dice have only two spots on each face, while the Grand La mas cubes have six spots on every face. and the game is for tho highest number Of points.

Track Mark Claim q
California
Coaches

LOS ANGELES, Oct. g.
What University Of Southern
California coaches claim Is .
new record for long runs was
established by Eddie Green,
substitute, Trojan quarterback,
when he, dashed 113 yards on
one Of the freakiest plays ever
seen on a Pacific coast gridiron.
The incident happened IN the
last quarter of U. s. C.Is open
ing game of the season with
Caltech. Green, taking the engi-
neer kickoff which rolled fif-
teen yards behind the Trojan
goal line, failed to touch the
ball down. Neither the Caltech
players or the other Trojans
knew Of Green's intention until
he tore out in q mad sprint
for the opponents goal line.
Two Of Caltech's fastest men
finally dragged him to earth on
their own two-yard line.
The play was made doubly
freaky by the fact that Green
in being tackled dropped the
ball and Heilburn, Of Caltech,
ran the ball back to his own
forty-five-yard line before he
in turn was downed.
Green's performance of rum
ming lib yards before he was
tackled is created than the
existing record Of 10 yards,
established by G. S. McCaa, Of
Lafayette, in 1909.
