CHICAGO. October 22.-TwentysiX
years ago. a University Of Chicago
foot ball team, led by Amos Alfonso
Stagg, were hosts to the University
of Pennsylvania and sent them away
happy with a 5-to-5 tie.
Today, another Maroon team. led
by the same coach. starts East to
return the call. Pennsylvania is in
the role of host and entertainment
is ready for Saturday in Philadelphia.
With Chicago goes a. formidable
reputation as a INCREASING aGere-
CATION with punting and passing
threats There is also the possibility
that Coach Stagg will abandon his
conservative tactics and open up with
display of gridiron pyrotechnica
similar to those which put his pro-
teges at the top of the Western Con-
ference column last year.
While the Maroons carry Midwest
hopes Eastward. fans anticipate
spectacular games in the Illinois
Michigan meeting at Crbana and the
Iowa-Ohio State engagement at Co
lumbus.

year established the reputation Of

The financial end is something with
which the college foot ball warriors
have nothing to do.
The steadily increasing revenues go
to the erection Of huge stadia, i'm
proved equipment for the gladiators,
better training table fare, the athletic
education of a larger squad, increas
ing of athletic facilities generally.
Professional base ball has gained a
firm footing. but the game was not
taken from the colleges. Rather the
colleges adopted it from professional
ism. Professional foot ball has thrived
in several cities for some years. But
not until this Fall did it invade New
York. Bob Folwell, former coach of
the Navy elevenS and Of several East
ern colleges, has gathered an impos
ing array of talent here.
The public wants to be entertained,
and If the professional gridiron sport
is desirable it will soon prove itself.
Public opinion has been the judge of
base ball and has ordered it to con-
tinue as the national pastime.
Nineteen professional teams in IS
large cities are under control of the
National Foot Ball League, now in it's
fifth year. The cities are New York,
Providence, Rochester, Buffalo, Phil
adelphia. Pottsville, Cleveland, Can
ton, Akron, Columbus, Dayton, Chi

SOCIAL STANDING
ADMITS STUDENTS
TO UNIVERSITY
Students and Faculty
Revolt at Practice
Rx A. w. HARvlrr.

TOLEDO, Ohio, March 81 Stu
dents at Toledo university are in re-
volt in protest against the goose step
policy of President Stowe.
A storm that has been brewing for
several months in Toledo university
broke few days ago, when the stu
dent body demanded the dismissal
of the president.
The demands of the students were
so urgent that the board of directors
were forced to ask for President
Stoves resignation.
The board has now attempted to
retaliate by dismissing three profess
sors, Bradley, Nurse, and Jones.
These three members of the facul-
ty are charged with being rebels and
anarchists, and of being responsible
for the agitation that brought about
the resignation of President Stowe.
! The rest of the faculty have threat
ened to quit in a body if the three
professors are discharged.
Some of the faculty members who
have been interviewed, say that
President Stowe is not a man big
enough for the job he holds, and that
he tried to make up for what he lack
ed in ability by his arbitrary and pet
ty policy in dealing with the faculty.
The faculty are unanimous in pro-
testing against the action by the
board in dismissing the three profess
sors and threaten to quit in a body if
it is carried out.
The board of directors accuse sew
eral other professors of being rebels
and anarchists.
The students have circulated a De-
ton protesting against the dismissal
of the professors on which they have
$40 names. They have also called a
mass meeting of protest.
The students say that President
Stowe was instituting a policy of Sc
lecting students who applied for adj
mission to the university, according
to their social and economic position
in society, giving the preference to
applicants who had better social
standing.
The students and professors are
against this new policy and say they
will oppose it.

Especial to The Daily Worker)
BERLIN, March 31.-Sporadic "out-
law strikes on many divisions Of the
former national railway lines now un-
der direct private management of the
Dawes plan, continue to disturb both
the management and the social demo-
cratic leaders who fear general
strike as the devil fears holy water.
Amalgamation in June.
However, under pressure from the
Communist left wing, a conference Of
representatives of the two principal
railway unions, the German Railroad
ers Union and the National Union of
German Railroad officials Clerical
workers. met two weeks ago at Frank
fort and agreed to united front in
any action until the two unions are
formally amalgamated at a conference
to be held in June.
100000 Fired Others speeded.
Under the beauties of the Dawes
plan, 100000 railway workers have
been discharged and those remaining
have been compelled to do the work
on longer hours and speed up systems
imposed by, the Dawes plan control.
They work 81 hours a week.
Moreover, their wages have been
cut down until the 100000 raHroaders
are getting lower pay than the already
starvation wage average of German
workers as a whole.
Profits All For Reparations.
The men are aroused over the atti-
tude of the arbitration commission
which refuses to grant them any con-
cession whatever, meanwhile that the
railway lines under the Dawes plan
are doing well financially and can
afford to grant increases. but instead
wishes to devote all profits to paying
PREPARATIONS with the exception of re-
cent increases given to the high off,
Gals.
Wages now are below the pre-war
level, while freight and passenger
rates are above it,
Demand 8-Fiour Day.
The men demand the effective eight
hour day as provided in the German
constitution and abolished by the
Dawes plan; abolition of the contract
system of speeding up workers hey
ond their endurance; the abolition Of
the bonus system.
The speed up system is responsible
for sickness and many injuries, as
shown in the Berlin district sickness
was nine per cent the first part of
January. And the management itself
admits that the number of employees
injured from April to September, 1924,
was 626, against 51S the year before.

NEWCASTLE, England, March
31-Thlrty-three men were trapped
In the Montague eolliery at Scob-
wood, near Newcastle, this after
noon by a sudden thrush Of water.
Two hundred men were under
ground when the flood started, but
all except thirty-three made their

s Eight of the entombed men were
said to be in a perlIous position to-
night on a ridge near the roof Of
the mine. Rescue work was being
greatly hampered by foul gases.
Scores Of relatives are gathered
about the pit head, including many
women, who have stood in the cold
RAIN for fourteen hours or more in
the hope Of rescue.
The rescue teams were with
drawn at midnight. Nothing further
is possible until greater pumping
power is provided to cope with the
flood, which is Increasing rapidly.
Men who attempted to enter the
pit mouth today said the waters
were rising rapidly and that the
deadly black damp was already
present, greatly Iessening the
chances that any Of the imprisoned
men would escape alive.

PITTSBURGH, March 81 Meet.
lngs are being held by the officers of

northern part of West Va. as part OF
the campaign launched today to un,
ionize those coal fields.
A strike order has been issued BY
Van Bittner, international organizer
for West Virginia, which takes effect
today. Owing to the almost complete
liquidation of the union in West vir
ginia the officials were obliged to re.
sort to advertisements in the capital
list press announcing the strike.
Two Main Objects.
The union officials declare that the
two main objects in calling the strike
are, to organize the non-union mines
in West Virginia so that the operators
in that field will not be able to food
the market with cheaper coal,o thus
offering unfair" competition TO the
Pittsburg coal barons, and secondly
to rob the coal operators OF an argu
ment for a reduction in wages.
officials of the miners union pre-
diet that besides the 10000 miners
already on strike in West Virginia
some for several years, 5000 more
will come out today.
Preparation Demanded.
While the mine leaders dismiss the
conferences now being held by the
operators in Cleveland. members OF
the rank and file Of the United Mine
Workers Of America express the opln
ion that those secret conferences
which have been taking place for two
weeks. demand that the miners union
should prepare for the most gigantic
conflict in its history.
Tho the miners officials admit that
the operators OF the Ohio and western
Pennsylvania fields are planning on
complete shut down on April /, the
former claim that only the large oper
ators contemplate such a move and
