w. NJ. MCDOWELL, chairman of
the Democratic party in the state,
gave out a story last week In which
he states that he has many letters
from other states asking TOR the
presence OF Senators Walsh and
Wheeler at Democratic meetings.
Mac is evidently trying to convey
the impression that people of Mon
tana are lucky to have an OppOrtu-
nifty to hear their Senators talk and
that they are really missing the
plaudits of great crowds In the
east who are hungry for their words
Of wisdom. Whatever prompted
Mac to say what he did, there seems
to be a good deal of truth in the
statement that the Montana Sena-
tors are more in demand in distant
states than in Montana. That may
be due to the fact that the people
far away know and care more about
the Senators than do the people
here. Anyway Senator Wheeler
gave expression to the same sentl-
ment when he deprecated the small
audience who heard him speak at
the labor day celebration in Butte a
month ago.

PRO FOOTBALL
OFFERS LARGE
OPPORTUNITY
College Star Can Capitalize
on His Ability, Says
Ernie Nevers

When a college star ends his
athletic career through graduation,
his first thought is to how he shall
earn a livelihood.
The diamond and gridiron stars
have by far the better possibilities
to get the money.
For years. professional baseball
with its big salaries has been a
strong lure for college stars. More
recently football has offered fancy
inducements.
In my final article I will air my
views on professional football, also
touching slightly on baseball.
While wouldn't for q minute
recommend professional football as
Il career, yet nm strong for it as
u foundation.
A Strenuous Life
The game is far too strenuous for
a player to last very long after he
gets out of college. He might get
away with it successfully for say
three years, but after that it would
get more difficult each year to keep
up with the procession.
As collegian, showed enough
stuff as ball player to attract the
attention Of several major league
baseball magnates. l signed with
the St. Louis Browns and met with
varying success.
From my short experience in the
majors, one year spent in the Amer
lean League, l would say that a col
lege star able to make the grade in
the big leagues would make no mis-
take in playing the game profess
sionally.
Three years would give him bank
account that would enable him to
take up a business career and wealth
err some of the tough luck that usual
~ besets every college man.
If an outstanding star like Col
Inns or Sisler, he might continue in
the game indefinitely, or until such
time as he could no longer deliver.
Time Wasted
But, unless a college player 10
able to make the grade as q biz
Lacquer, would say the time spent
in baseball was wasted.
The successful football star loves
the game. He gets only three yeafS
Of it at college. That doesn't quite
satisfy his appetite for the sport.
Professional football offers him
the opportunity of continuing the
game for several years and incident
ally makes it possible for him to
realize handsomely on his gridiron
ability.
l feel that I am conservative in
saying that out of two years of pro-
fessional football and one year of
big league baseball, / have made more
money than the average collegian
with no athletic ability would be
able to make in five, perhaps 10
years.
Success in business is measured by
ones earning capacity. That is why
! recommended professional football
strongly as q good foundation. It
gives one working margin when he
sets out to revolutionize the bust
ness world.
] think every college football star
has the right to and should CAPT.
talize on his athletic ability for say
three years.
If he saves his money, he is all
set to get somewhere in his chosen
profession. whatever it may be.

Tw" things, the forward pass and
intcrscctional games, have made for
nationwide interest in football
The pass gave to the game it's big
gest thrill and made for greater UNI
certainty, an element on which every
sport thrives.
Intersectional games created, a
rivalry between east, west, north and
south that has done much to make
football popular, not only with the
undergraduate and alumnus but with
the masses as well.
In sense, the colleges Of the Pa
cific Coast are responsible for inter-
sectional games on a big basis.
Ten years ago football on the Pa
cific Coast wasn't SO much. Cali
fornia was the first to make rood
strides. The. success of California
soon spread to the other institutions.
When it became apparent that coast
football compared very favorably with
the brand played in the east, middle
west and south. negotiations were
opened for games with the leadin,.
teams Of these sections.
Results Favored Coast Teams
For a time the coast elevens en-
Joycd unusual success in these inter-
sectional games, making it seem that
there was little room for choice be-
tween the style of game played in the
various sections. If there was an
edge, the results Of those games
favored the coast teams.
y All Of which leads up to the point
! desire to discuss--what effect have
climatic conditions on the intersec-
tional games staged on the coast?

Championship Trophies

Chicago, Oct. 3O.--(P)-The calen-
dar is busily checking off the days,
working toward Nov. Is, when the
so.cailed irresistible force meets the
alleged immovable object. which
means that Michigan and Ohio State
play . highly Important football
game on the date mentioned. when

ed to the champion conference team
members each year. The premier
Monors, il won by either the VOL
verihes or the Buckeyes, may be
shared by another Big Ten team
possibly Northwestern.
Both Ohio State and Michigan
have shown unusual strength this
fall, the former upsetting Columbia

and Illinois in it, two biz games
Comparative Scores
When an important clash impsnds
OSsWSSu WV SSOseeDe - 8StVSxO0 W.
lowers try TO dope The thing. and
one Of the fsyorite methods q tie
comparative score system. WHILE
this hardly means anything here y
the way Il 10 done. Illinois beat
Iowa Is to 8 and that makes Him
oils 2 points better than Iowa. Ohio
State beat the Hawkeyes % to s,
so that makes Ohio undoubtedly II
points better than Iowa. The in
tricate part now is unfolded. Mich
igan beat Illinois IL to 0, and if
Illinois is z points better than Iowa,
the figures seem to indicate Michigan
is 20 points better than Iowa, against
Ohio's 17-point. margin.
Somebody might suggest that Iowa
earned second touchdown against
Illinois which the Hawkeyes did not
score. referring to the incident on
Illinois 6-inch line when Iowa lost
the ball on downs. It was fourth
down, and the Iowa field general elect
ed to send Schmidt straight through
center. The Illinois center and
guards we're as immovable a. the
cast iron lions in front Of the Art
Institute. A drive off tackle by
Kutsch probably would have scored
the touchdown and the above dope
would favor Ohio State instead Of
Michigan.
However. the statesmen Who deal in
golden footballs undoubtedly will try
to do some business with the winner
Of the battle, and il Northwestern
comes through to tie for champion
ship honors, what more could . good
salesman ask
The game will attract . crowd Of
more than $4,000 persons who will
shake hands with themselves be-
cause they have ducats, and who also
will border on psychopathic cases
as the battle Gibbs and flows.

CLIMATE PLAYS LITTLE PART
MTERSECnONAL FOOTBALL GAMES

DO the long trip and the climate
seriously handicap clcvcns from the
other sections?
In the early years Of these games,
l am of the opinion that the travel
and weather conditions played havoc
with the invading teams. In n meas
urc, trainers and coaches were re-
SpOnsible for such state Of affairs.
At first the thought was that the
best results could be attained by ar
irving only a day or two prior to the
game. This didn't work out very we'll
because it gave the players little
chance to get acclimatcd or time to
remove the travel kinks.
Now. most coaches and trainers
seek to arrive on the scene as early
as possible, taking advantage of every
bit of time allowed them by their
colleges.
Climatic Changes
! always have believed the question
Of climatic conditions was greatly
ovcrstressed. Only i'm games played
at Los Angeles are invading teams
liable to be handicapped because of
excessively warm weather.
Conditions are much the same as
in the east for games scheduled at
Berkeley and Palo Alto, or in the
north ut Washington or Oregon.
When coast teams play Southern
California at Los Angeles they are up
against it just as are teams from
other sections of the country as far
as the climate is concerned.
The success that teams from the
east, middle west and south have at
tanned in recent years in games play
ed on the coast rather refutes the idea
that climate and travel are insur-
mOuntable handicaps.
