GRADUATE
SYSTEM
WRONG
Former Big Three Star Be-
Iieyes It Works Against
Best Results
By FORD C. FRICK

'The Big. Three colleges can
never hope for the return of real
football supremacy under the
present coaching systems. The
old tradition that q Harvard coach
must be a Harvard man. Yale
coacha Yale man and q Princeton
coach q Princeton man is faulty"
This is the opinion of a former
Big Three star, who expresses his
ideas in no uncertain terms.
There's no reason why these
three schools shouldn't be football
leaders each year. They have
plenty of material; they draw their
clevens from large student bodies,
and they have the advantage OF
long football tradition. But there
are great football minds outside
these three schools, and football In
telligence isn't limited TO Big Three
graduates. II school hopes to be
up in the football standing 1t must
keep abreast of the football times.
An idea is an idea and a play is
play, whether 1t comes from Har-
ward or from the little jerkwater
college somewhere in the outlands.
Bob Fisher is definitely out at
Harvard, understand" the Old Grad
continued. And Tad Jones may
not be back at Yale next year.
These two men are good coaches.
But they have coached the systems
they learned. Jones followed the
Yale systenl-a system that has
been born and developed in the Eli
institution. Fisher, a Harvard man,
chung steadfastly to the Harvard
system. And the chances are that
90 long as graduate coaches sue
coed graduate coaches, the same
condition win prevail All of which
Is fine for tradition but not so
good for football.
MEN like Zupplxe and Yost and
ROcIxne and Warner could teach
Yale and Harvard teams 3 lot.
They would come in with fresh.
outlook and 3 different angle.
What the Big Three needs Is to
get away from the graduate coach
idea"
There's a lot OF common sense ID
the Old Grads views. Army this
year waIloped Notre Dame by using
q Notre Dame system. Princeton,
ever more progressive than their
Harvard and Yale rivals, showed
q flash OF Notre Dame football
against Harvard-and at least one
touchdown against Yale was scored
BY play plainly adapted from the
Illinois system.
Western schools have not hest
tated to grab all that is best In
Eastern football and adopt 1t to
their uses. Their theory has been
always to get coaches who were
mp on the game regardless Of their

school. And until the Big Three
reaches the same idea Big Three
football will suffer.
only three more games Of more
than passing Importance remain on
the 1925 football schedule. Penn
plays Cornell; Columbia meets
Syracuse and Army collides with
Navy. None of the three have any
bearing on the national title or
even on the sectional honors. Penn
has twice been beaten; Cornell was
overwhelmed by Dartmouth; Column
bia has only victory over Army
to color an otherwise drab season;
Syracuse lost to Colgate; Army sue
cumbed to Columbia and Yale, and
Navy was buried under q Michigan
avalanche.
But color and tradition make
thing more than ordinary con-
tests. The ArIny-Navy affair in
particular Is 3 remaining high
light in q season Of upsets.
That there will be capacity at
tendance at the Polo Grounds is
without question. The mere pres
ence OF the cadet corps Of the two
institutions would guarantee that.
And indications are that there will
be at least 10000 people at each
Of the other two games.
Never before has football interest
been quite so keen as this season.
It would be interesting to know the
total attendance at all games dur
Ing the season. Certainly 1t has
been well in the millions. A few
years ago q few hundred thousand
would cover the total.

NEW YORK. Mar 26.-The day
of the "blue law in America has

the 1925 session Of state legisla-

with Farm Advisor Garthwaite is
conducting gopher meetings in all

the pupils Of the school as we'll as
hy many rancherS in the vicinity.

stated, hut this does not prevent the

 Sam Jensen, a we'll known pioneer of the Fairbanks Dis Itrict, died recently aboard the

 enroute to Juneau from Tena- kee, where he went some time ago for the benefit of his health. Funeral services were held in Juneau under the aus Ipices of the Pioneers of Alaska, of which Jensen was a mem- Der, and the body was shipped to Fairbanks for interment. A recent dispatch from Nome states that the town is threat ened with a fuel famine, owing to consumption being greater than was planned. Natives and trappers this winter bought coal instead of combing the beach for driftwood, and the supply is short. The ship Apol- To failed to arrive last fall with a cargo consigned to Nome, and the city has pur- chased fifty tons from the To- cal radio station, which is be- ing apportioned in lots from one to six sacks. Beach wood has been exhausted for a dis tance of thirty miles each way from the city and the nearest forest wood is seventy miles, with no trail.

The company was compelled to close down early in January on account of the ice in the slough channel, through which oil drums are transported by boat.

With the installation last Dec ember, of a gasoline extract plant at Katalla, another means of increasing the output was provided. Casing head gas, originally used only for lights and heat in the buildings at the oil we'll, is now being passed through absorption oil and gasoline is being distilled from it, increasing the output about 400 gallons daily. The plant had just been overhaul ed when the freeze came. As there are no storage facilities at Katalla, it was impossible to continue running until warmer weather set in.

BIC RUSH FOR
 cASSIAR STRIKE

More than twelve hundred applications for passage to the
 Cassiar have been received by
 the Harrington Navigation Co.,, for the first sailing of it's steamboat fleet from Wrangell
 to Telegraph Creek, according to word received in Juneau.
 Many dog teams have already left Wrangell for the Dease Lake section via the Stikine trail and it is now certain that with the opening of navigation lon the Stikine river transport
 ation facilities will be over- whelmed by the rush of gold seekers bound for the new Idiggings. Capt. Sid Harrington is preparing to handle the crowd bv' adding new vessel. Inow under construction, to his fleet of river steamers.
 A recent communication from Telegraph creek reported the finding of some fine looking quartz at the head of one of
 the creeks on which prospect ing was being done. Capt. John B. Edwards, mast CT of the motor ship Oregon, |of the Independent Steamship Company of Juneau, was re- gently fined $500 and given a
 suspended sentence of 90 days, : following a plea of guilty to a Echarge of possessing intoxi- eating liquor. The action re- suited from a recent raid by prohibition officials on the Ore |gon. Four other, members of Fthe crew arrested on similar charges, were fined S25 each
 after pleading guilty. No act ion is to be taken agaiHet. the
 vessel, owing to the belief Of the officials that the steamship owners possessed no know-
 ledge that liquor was on board
 the steamer. . %..
