THE YALE BOWL
AND CASH CUSTOMERS.

The football game between Yale
and the Army last Saturday was
played In ideal football weather,
with the air just crisp enough TO
give the players the maximum of zip,
md the playing field in perfect con-
dition. The usual crush at Yale bowl,
with the army of automobiles occu-
plying all available territory again
indicated how excited we can get
over the king OF sports.
That the bowl isn't large enough
vas again self-evident. When 1t was
built the Yale bowl was expected tc
take care of all customers available
for many years; now there are more
potential customers on the outside
than there are on the inside.
It would cost considerable money
| to enlarge the bowl, but there is nc
doubt it would bring In handsome re.
turns. Yet there Is no guarantee tina
! conditions would be vastly improved
| There is substance to the argument
that the bowl could not be made
large enough to accommodate ell
who would like 10 enter.

TILSON As AN AID
TO STIR POLITICAL POT.

Congressman Tilson OF Connecti-
cut is being utilized as campaign
helper In both New Haven and
Massac husetts. The Connecticut con-
gresham has returned to New Eng
land to help his fellow citizen, John
b. Tower, TO be mayor of New Ha-
ven, and to boost his friend, Sena-
tor William b. Butler, for reelection
In the Bay State. Senator Buffers
term ends in year and he probably
will have to face former Senator
Walsh at the polls. 1t will be q very
stiff battle, and Senator Butler will
have no concurrent presidential cleo
aion to help him retain his seat.
1t would be a peculiar twist Of
fate If President Coolidgc's personal
friend and campaign manager were
defeated in the state In which the
President had been a governor. If
1t were not for Walshs army of
friends around Boston the possibil-
ity would be remote; but the majo
population of the state Is along the
coast and Senator Walsh is nothing
If not a great campaigner and vote
getter, With no presidential election
to assist the present senator. his
chances are at least no better than
$3.50. The Boston Herald. Btaunch
Butler organ, is alarmed.
Senator Butler has not exactly
proved himself poor senator; he at
least has known enough TO sit tight
| and not rock the boat. He has lacked
the brilliancc of Walsh and also has
been minus the dcmagogic fire that
appeals to a large block Of voters,

DETROITS RELIGIOUS
ELECTION,

The city election in Detroit tomor-
row has suddenly hlossomcd out as
an affair OF national interest. And
all because the HI KluX klan has
"organzed the city" in way never
before attempted in city election,
and because Henry Ford, aroused
over the matter, has been making
about as many campaign statements
as the Candidates.
1t is the Kian's first attempt &c
control a big city and Detroit was
| chosen because Mayor Smith, an adj
mittedly efficient and conscientious
mayor, Is a member OF the Roman
Catholic church.
1t Is also a unique development
Klanwise because the KIuxcrs have
! invited Negroes and Jews to join If
| the attempt to defeat the mayor
processing to consider them on &
plane Of eQuality--at least so far az
the Detroit fracas is concerned,
Nothing more detrimental to tn
integrity Of American politics cal
be devised than running elections OF
a religious issue. Heretofore nobod.

Smiths religion; whether he Wen

Sunday morning, or sat in the pcy
Of a Baptist church, or stayed n

The Constitution Of the Unite

and that means people Of all rel

THE SHAH OF PERSIA

The Shah Of Persia is--or was
one of the worlds richest men; also
the worlds greatest spcndcr, This
seventh potesAatc OF the Kajar
dynasty, which started In lT76, II
now an ordinary citizen. Reza Khan,
the Persian premier, appears TO have
instituted successful overthrow OF
the kingly dictator and established
a republic.
The Shah Of Persia was one Of
those rotentates who did not help
the prestige of the king business In
the eyes OF the world. A man who
has jewels worth many millions
who can afford 10 lose $4,000, 900 in
Partisan gambling houses whose
yacht parties cost him $1,000, 900,
and whose tips to flower girls have
been 10000 francs each, has not
been exactly a piker In the realm OF
pleasure. His harem at Teheran was
the largest in the world, and tho
utensils in his kitchen cost $4,000
900. But for two years he has lived
in Paris, where his unofficial harem
has been as large as the official one
at the Persian capital. In short, he
is, or was. a survivor Of the type OF
Oriental despots that figure in tales
Of the dim past in the Far East
During the war when everybody
except the Shah and his harem
seemed to be on the verge of star
walton in Persia. he invested $780,
600 In Liberty bonds as a token OF
gratitude toward the United States
for coming to the aid of his starving
kinsmen.
His Highness or whatever they
call him, is now stranded In Paris
II he hasn't plenty OF funds sewed
up outside Of Persia he may have tc

4 FAMOUS PUBLISHER

after the war ended young Agnus

A Chin Off the Old Block

by Chester Cibulas
I've often heard my Daddy tell
OF funny things he did
The night that Halloween came
round
When he was just a kid:
or how he rang the fire bell
And scared the village folk;
And how the constable got mad
And thought 1t was no Joke.
I've heard him tell hundred
times
How other lads and ho
Got farmer Reynolds Jersey COW
Astride the barn roof tree;
And always he will laugh to think
How mad the people got
TO find their gates had all been
swiped
And piled up in some lott
But gosh, my Dad is mad today!
'Tothcr night was HalI'wcen
And nowhere In the neighborhood
Can our front gate be seen!
He's offered me dollar bill
To find out where it's hid;
But there's one buck III nevel
get
We burned it up, we did!
