LAND OF OPPORTUNITY

Some pessimistlc newspapers are IN the habit OF
procaimng that the door of opportunity III this land
of the free and home of the brave has been forever
closed to the poor and unfortunate.
Some of the yellow journals shout continuously
that the poor have no opportunities in America and
make appeal to class prejudice to convince the poor
that the rich have stolen their birhright and doomed
them to industrial servitude.
The best answer to this is given by Roland Hayes,
the sensational negro sooist laundry boy whose
mother was slave and who has reached the heights
of great art and become one of the most popular
singers in the world
inequalities of life are inherent in human nature
and will exist in spite of the most highly paternastlc
government The socialistc idea that all that IS nee
essary is 10 pass laws and take wealth from those
who have and give to those who have not will never
create the utopia of human equality.
All over our country are men and women, VINO

of poverty ignorance, racial inequality, social ostra
cism by their native ability, capacity for work, endur
ance and character.

the heights of success, and the door of opportunity
still opens freely to those who knock Preaching dls

GENERALS PREPARING
FOR The OLD LINERS

LEXINGTON, Va, November O.
With three conference battles looming
up in the next few weeks the Wash
ington and Lee started their tenth
week of foot ball practice this after
noon with light workout.
The coaches had planned to give
the Blue and White gridders day
of rest after their hard tussie with
Virginia last week end. but want
the entire squad to be ready for the
Maryland battle this Saturday at Col
lege Park.
The Old Liners by their showing
against Yale have made the Generals
Sit up and take notice.
The Generals will be sent through
stiff conditioning drills tomorrow and
Wednesday. while Thursday will be
devoted to an intensive scrimmage
session, leaving Friday for the final
light workout prior to their departure
for the Maryland battle.
Some of the scrubs have been Civ
ing varsity gridders a real run for
the positions on the first eleven, and IT
would not be at all surprising to see
couple of changes for the game
against the Old Liners.

Yale and Dartmouth. Yale. with
great surplus of very powerful mate
rial, week by week proves her claim
to the mythical championship with
mighty and most excellently coach
ed line. followed by fast. clever. pow
erful. experienced backs. So far, she
is winning from practically all op-
ponents. The succession of winning
Yale teams did not spring full armed
from the plans of any one man.
Teams such as Yale and Dartmouth
have are the fruit of several years
of n broad, encouraging policy as ap-
piled to competitive athletics.
Dartmouth'S great eleven this past
Saturday defeated powerful Cor
nell by the Overwhelming total of g.
points. Ordinarily this would mean
that Cornell was weak and defense
less, but such was far from the case.
This years Cornell team has a good
record. 1t has been strong on the
attack. 1t advanced the ball Satur-
day by continuous rushes over so
yards through Dartmouth. Its de-
fense has been competent, but such
is the great chance in foot ball that
a team equipped with a good line, a
strong rushing attack and, above all,
an excellent passer can. by judicious
application of the pass and rush, well
nigh demoralize an inferior opponent
and can score at least three and four
times as fast as has been possible
previously in the gridiron game. Such
was the case in the Dartmouth Cor
nell game Saturday.
In a lesser degree the same effect
was achieved in Princeton's victory
over Harvard. Excellence in the run
ming attack, combined with a splen-
did passing game. put Princeton in
the lead early and it was rarely
stopped.
Excellent performances such as
Princeton, Dartmouth and Yale show
are always backed up by high grade
personnel. The Yale and Dartmouth

DIXIE LEADERS FACE
BIG FOES SATURDAY
By the Associated Press.


NEW ORLEANS. November 8
Three of the four teams undefeated in
the Southern Conference will have op-
portunitieS to have their records mar
red this week.
Only North Carolina is certain to
remain with perfect record. The
Tarhells play Davidson, a non-con-
ference member. Friday, while Ala
bama, Tulane and Washington and
Lee meet opponents Saturday who
can make or break them.
Alabama will play the Alligators
II Florida in Montgomery. The Ca
.ors have played only two conference
games, losing to Georgia Tech and
winning from Clemson. Alabama is
certain to enter the game the favor
lite with an impressive record of five
conference victories already in hand.
Tulane's opponent for the day in
New Orleans will be Sewanee. The
Tigers from the mountains have
found the going rough. but can be
counted on to give the Greenbacks a
battle. Tulane, however, should win
on the basis of form displayed thus
far. Tulane, as the victor over
Northwestern. received a boost in
prestige when the Purple defeated the
powerful Michigan team Saturday.
Washington and Lee will have it's
I hands full in Maryland at College
Park Saturday. Maryland's exhibition
against Yale shows that it has power
and that the Old Liners are improv-
ing rapidly.

most logical probably is that the stom-

side in any normal person and the left
hand has always been used more or

Princeton, taking every game up
to the Harvard struggle in the nor
NAL stride of development, profiting
by mistakes. accepting everything
that had happened as constructive
object lessons, came up to the first
of the big three series in very credit
able shape indeed. Nassau after long
weeks of mental and physical labor
on the part of players and coaches
has developed into combination
worthy of Princeton tradition.
Crimson Lacks Poise.
But even granting that Harvard
was opposed, by a good Princeton
eleven. the Crimson should not, all
things being normal at Cambridge,

she experienced The men are all
big, rugged and spirited Their chief
lack seemed to be instruction and
that poise which grows out of les
sons well taught and well learned.
Princeton might on Saturday have
had the best team in her history
which she has not-and still not have
crushed Harvard as she did, had all
at Cambridge this season.
MiChigan's downfall at the hands
of Northwestern was a stunning up
set. The exigencies of the maise
and blue schedule called for a vast
deal of October strength. the outlet
OF oceans of team psychology. Old
timers to the contrary, notwith-
standing, this modern game Is in
| finitely more taxing upon players
than foot ball prior, to 1906, and
Michigan has paid the penalty that
nj 1f hn- f,t
incapacitated in preceding games
paid in the Illinois contest. This
has to be said on the one hand whiles
on the other all credit is bestowed
upon the fighting Evanston team
and upon the coach, Glenn This
tlethwaite.
Iowa is another eleven that has
been running hurricane course this
season, playing the most gruelling and
significant October games. Against
Wisconsin she met an eleven slowly
developing throughout the Fall, learn
ing a system of foot ball new to Madi-
son. which was ripper for this test
than were the Hawkeyes.

she did to the Army; she won in the
last quarter when the rival was ex-
hausted and unable to match the Eli
replacements. Suppose some afternoon
a rival does not get exhausted.
Grange made II yards in 1s rushes
against Chicago. But with Rod

eleven distinguished itself particu-

to victory over Cornell. Any eleven
that will sticls> to the ground when
playing Cornell Is likely j.. to face
grievous trouble. But inasmuch as
the Comedians themselves are inept
at the overhead offensive. so just as
radically are they at loss to defend
against it.

Lowry. in the first few minutes of

touchdown. So much dirt covered the
Northwestern players jersey that
Lowry was unable to see the purple
color.
Later Lowry had a chance to redeem
himself by the strategy of ordering
the safety that probably prevented a
Michigan victory after Northwestern
had drop-kicked a field goal.
