We cannot conceive of any thing
more unwarranted than criticism di.
rected at a body of volunteer work
ers, and yet it is generally conceded
by men who have had the experience,
that there is no more thankless task
than serving the public. Sank Cen
tire is able to boast of one of the
best volunteer fire departments in the
state, and it has a record of which
every member of the department and
every citizen of Sank Centre can well
be proud. Yet we find at, and after
each fire, few small-ninded fellows
unloading their criticism.
Sank Centre fremen work prac-
tically without pay; replace their
own damaged clothing, sacrifice their
rest, and even risk their, lives for
the sole purpose of protecting the
property of their neighbors and fell
low citizens.
There is no excuse for any such
criticism, and it proves lack of ap-
probation and the mall-mindedness
of the few who are always ready to
find fault. Fortunately this element
represents a very small percentage of
our people, but such as there are of
these self-constituted critics,-are
obnoxious in the extreme.

Was Wells going to try another for
ward pass along the side line?
The ball was snapped directly to
Wells and into the line, directly be-
hind Benbrook, he plnged, carrying
what seemed like IL Gophers on his
back for a one-yard gain. We hur-
rfed into the same formation again.
This time, taking pass from
Magidsohn, who dove into left guard
as a feint, Wells shot like a wild
bull into a cross-buck charge behind
right guard. Carrying two Mime
sofa men on his back, he went over
the line for a touchdown.
Wells Makes AI-American.
He wasn't more than a foot over. but
he was over That was the all-important
fact. On those two plays he had proved
himself the best line -plunger 1 ever
had seen. Conklin kicked goal. We ha d
beaten the Gophers-the first team to
score on them.
That surely was a thrilling finish. For,
despite the fact that there was another
Kickoff and period during which
Minnesota tried desperately to stave
off defeat with forwarded passes-which
they had not, l think used before-the
brief remainder of the game was but
an anti-climax.
Those last four plays had made an
All-American end of Wells and had con-
firmed Benbrooks choice as - All
American guard. The part they had
played in the last hectic charge also had
brought All Conference and All-Western
honors to Left Halfback Magidsohn

and Left End Borleskie. But if l had

Out in the Middle West the fore

East.
Is foot ball. through the develop

basket ball? This is the question
that is being widely debated.
Such a team, for instance, as Cor
nell, worked up a beautiful running
game in the latter half of the
season, but in important games 1t
could not gain sufficiently to offset
the seven-league boot advances of
forward passing.
Cornell May Adopt Pass.
Cornell, they say, will as a conse-
quence stress the running game less
next season and place the emphasis
on forward passing. Other teams
will do likewise and many fine and
spectacular features now associated
with advancing the ball will as a
consequence ultimately become lost
arts.
This may be putting it bit strong
ly, but at any rate SO runs the talk.
Some such check upon the forward
pass as a penalty for an incompleted
overhead toss is being suggested, and
the matter may be pressed at the
annual meeting of the foot ball rules
committee this Winter.
Personally the writer feels 1t would
be well to let the pass alone, mas

the game has been due to its use

proceeding SO outrageous as that can
hardly go unchallenged by stolid and
