At the same time the number Of
cattle, sheep and swine in the state
showed material increase, the only
farm animals showing a decrease be-

In 1919 there were 146,427 sheep in

The number of cattle on farms has
almost doubled since 1912 and the

Tiger Lineup

One Of the football sensations in
the east this season is Jake Slagle,
Princeton's famous back. A runner,
passer. kicker, he's an all round grid
der Of the highest order.
In the recent game with Harvard,
it was SIagle who carried big share
of the Tiger attack and it was his
clever forward passing also that
helped the Orange and Black to a
great amount of yardage.
Slagle rates one Of the best backs
Princeton has had in some time. He's
been the outstanding star in virtual.
ly every game his team has played
this season. He's not only fleet afoot
but is extremely hard to bring to the
turf once he gets under way As Il
broken field runner he can hold his
own with the best
In word, Slagle is certain to come
in for plenty of All-American CON
sitleratioa this season.

GRID QUIZ
BY Billy Evans

QUESTIONS
!. From where was the ball kicked
off under the football rules of 1924
and what was the change this year?
2. What is the penalty for illegal
substitution of a player?
3. What happens when an incom-
ing substitute fails to properly re-
port his entrance into the game?
ANSWERS
/. In 1924 the rule governing the
kick off read: 1t shall be made from
the middle Of the field or. any point
directly behind it. The 1925 version
is: The side having the kickoff shall
kick from its own 40-yard line or any
point directly behind it.
2. The player shall be suspended
from the game and his team shall be
penalized half the distance to the
goal line from the spot Of the down
during which the illegal subs tuition
was made.
3. The loss Of five yards unless
the referee believes the substitute
had no chance to report. In that case
no action is taken.

Lo! The poor Indian.

Lo! The poor Indian.
That goes as far as big league base
ball is concerned.
The Indian is becoming even
scarcer on major league diamonds
than on the reservations.
For years Chief Bender was the
last of the redmen to star under the
big tent. Then there was an interval
of several years during which not an
Indian player graced the roster Of
either league.
At the instigation Of Manager Eddie
Collins, Bender did comeback as
coach Of the Chicago White Sox last
season. One Of the greatest of pitch
ers, he proved invaluable to Collins
in the development of his twirling
staff.
Evidently Manager Eddie thought
the Chief was lonesome, for he has
signed up another redskin to keep
the veteran company. His name is
Leo Najo and he halls from the Ok
mulgee club of the Western Associa-
ton.
Only very few Indians have
achieved greatness in the major
leagues, among them being Bender,
Myers and Thorpe.
FAMOUS TRIO.
When the Carlisle school for In
dians passed out, it played hob with
athletic life. In the old days Carlisle
turned out many great athletes on the
grjdiron as we'll as on the diamond
Most Indian athletes are called
Chief. That title was early handed
to Bender and Myers. but somehow
Jim Thorpe escaped it.
Chief Myers was q mighty fine
catcher. For years he was the main
stay of the New York Giants back Of
the bat. Myers wasn't Ty Cobb on
the bases, but he sure could hit.
Chief Bender was starring with the
Athletics about the same time Myers
was going big with the Giants. They
opposed each other in several world
series.
All Indians are supposed to be wild
but that didn't hold for Bender, at
least as far as control was concerned,
FOXY CHIEF.
