Johnny Poe's gone now-and old-Styte foot
ball with him. The same little 146-pound fury
that gave his all on the football field made the
supreme sacrifice before Ypres.
Poe, always an adventurer, used to smile
whimsically as he told Of the old Princeton
days. He liked the new game, too-the safe
and sane game that is so popular today--but
frequently he would recall the old, and grow
restlve for the old fighting spirit that existed
in the days when-well, in the days when this
picture was taken.
And today Johnny Poe's memory still lives
Johnny Poe of Princeton and the Black

a former classmate paid tribute in lines which

PRINCE ARE
SHRINE
Wales, When Seven Years Old,
Made Them in Fresh
Concrete

LONDON, Oct. 2.-Tourists have
a new mecca in Scotland-the foot
prints in concrete of the Prince
of Wales, made when he was seven
years old.
The footprints are in concrete
pavement surrounding Abergeldie
Castle, a few miles from Balmoral
Castle and theoretically the High
land home of the Prince of Wales,
though he has spent little time
there since he was small boy
Until this year only three per-
sons knew of the footprints, the
prince, an elderly woman retainer
Of the royal household and an ex-
London policeman, now a door at
tendant at the Drury Lane Theater.
The former policeman finally told
tourists of the morning twenty
three years ago when the prince
stepped into the fresh concrete,
with only the policeman and the
palace servant as witnesses.
Now Abergeldie Castle and the
concrete pavement in particular
have become shrines.
