TAFT PUPILS RESPECT LAW
Organize League to Inculcate Re-
gard for Enforcement; Bishop
Acheson's Sermons Help
By A. S. Taylor

has happened which is likely to make his
tory.
The boys in the Taft school, at Water
town, Conn.,, of which Horace D. Taft,
brother of William II. Taft, is headmas-
ter, have organized a league to inculcate
respect for the enforcement of law, es-
pecially for enforcement of the Eight
zenith Amendment and the Volstead act.
They have followed up the work by
getting six other boys college prepara-
tory schools and seven college prepara-
tory schools for girls in the league with
them. They plan to have all the leading
preparatory schools of the land in it.
Then they are going to storm the public
high schools.
The young people have found great
friend in Rt. Rev. Edward Campion Ache
son, SufTragan Episcopal Bishop of Con-
necticut, who has preached some SER
mons of tremendous power and force on
the league. Most unfortunately eastern
papers do not give publicity to the great
sermons Bishop Acheson has been de-
Evering.
In sermon preached recently in Christ
Episcopal Church, Greenwich, Conn, to
the members Of the church and girls of
the Ely School who attended in a body,
Bishop Acheson, after describing the
league, said:
Girls, your granddaughter are going
TO SMILE at the sad mess we of our gen.
Grafton have made of all this. 7 he Eight
zenith Amendment is the greatest eco
nomic measure in the history Of the
world. Men talk about the right to take
drink but that is not the question at
all. Just think of one thing. A man who
has been drinking is at the steering wheel
OF a car and may kill sweet child, low
ing mother, or the bread-winner OF the
family. Cold comfort as loving ones sit
by the coffin when we hear OF the right
to take drink
Have Great Opportunity
You young women have great OPP
portunity of making history. You can
shape the sentiment of the colleges within
the next four years. Yes, you may be able
to control colleges Of the land.
Mr.. Taft told me about the league.
The boys of the school had his pcrmis-
sion to form the organization, and Mr..
Taft said he would like to be in it and
work for it. The boys responded Mr..
Taft. the men of your generation have
made such mess of the whole thing that
we fear you could be of little use You
ought to have heard the laugh Of Mr..
Taft as he told that to me. He said,
There's too much truth in what the
youngsters told me. We have made
sad mess of it all They were right
Preaching in the Episcopal Church on
the grounds of the Rosemary Hall Col
lege Preparatory School in Greenwich,
the largest college preparatory school for
girls in the land, Bishop Acheson said
they could actually control leading wo-
mems colleges and ought to have faith
and confidence for the great work.
When Bishop Acheson delivered his
sermon to the girls of Rosemary the
picture was highly inspiring. The church
was lighted by hundreds of candles and
every inch of space taken. All the us

Valley City was selected over

invitation having been extended by
the Agricultural college to hold the

Guarantee Expenses
Valley City again guaranteed each

The only other business transact

of the resignation of Harry Polk as

resignation here at the meeting in

away suddenly shortly before noon
Saturday on the Killdeer train while

down less optimistic chap than
Connie.
That it pays to cater to fandom is
proved by the fact that the Philadcl-
phia Athletics are dou BILE decking all
thcir stands.
True. Macks efforts didn't even
win Il berth in the first division last
year, but it convinced the public he
was trying.
The Athletics were anything bat
soft picking last season. They gave
real battle TO every club. The fans
got Il run for their money, hence the
double-deck stands.
Last year Mack's club was just a
triflc shy of championship class. 1t
lacked something. In the pinch there
was an absence of the batting punch.
The pitching lacked consistency
Outfieldcr Bill Lamar, secured late
in the year, apparently supplied the
batting punch. Mack is hopeful that
the battery strength he has added
in Groves and Cochranc will bolster
the Other weakness.
During the last two months of the
1924 American League season, the
Athletics played better ball than the
three favorites, Washington, New
York and Detroit. There's something
to ponder over.
1t is rather strange that Cochrane
had to 80 to the far west to establish
his ability as Il player
Cochrane is an easterner. Last
year he attended Boston University
in that city. He was one of the star
athletes.
II is surprising that neither Bos-
ton club got Il line on Cockrane. Per-
haps it was the fact that he won
more fame as Il football played than
Il diamond performer.
Walter Camp lists Gordon Coch-
rane as one OF the country's leading
halfbacks in 1923.
The records show that he pulled
one of the best kicking stunts of the
year against Brown University.
Brown beat Boston 20-3. The three
points were the result of drop kick
from the middle of the field by one
Gordon Cochrane.
Undoubtedly the astute Mr. Mack
is convinced that club that gives
the opposition 4 run for its money
is 4 worthwhile venture.
In the last four deals that he has
made in his drive for the pennant,
Mack has expended upwards Of

BY BILLY EVANS

The open game of football has
produced a specialist, the passing
back.
Speed, linc-bucking qualities and
the ability TO make interference at
one time constituted the essentials
OF Il dangerous backfield.
The forward pass has made for
another style OF backficld star, a
player able to throw the pigskin for
distance and accuracy.
When one tries to recall the back
field men of recent years who have
starred ut tossing forward passes,
three names instantly occur to him:
Johnny Mohardt, "Erick" Muller
and "Hogc" Workman.
An Incompatible Trio
Mohardt was the big noise for
knute Rockne at Notrc Dame
"Brick" Muller was of valuable as
sistance TO Andy Smith in turning
out championship teams at Calfor-
MIA. Dr.. Wilce misses Hogc Work
man at Ohio state.
1t is a rather unusual fact that
these three players who have won
undying fame for their forward
passing, should hail from the middle
and far west.
Great paSsers like this trio only
come every so often III football. The
game produces many good passers
but only Il few great ones.
Enter Ben Friedman
Since the season Of 1924 has been
4 most unusual one in every respect,
it is but natural that it should give
to the game another passing special

incidentally it is Il bit of coinci-
dence that he should hail from the
