GAS TAX BRINGS
$685. 1893 FOR ROADS

The Minnesota Trunk Highway
fund will receive a total of
$5,033, 1893 from the two cent
gasoline tax collected during the
first twelve months the law
was in operation. Chief Oil In
spector Hjalmar Nilsson har GER
titled collections to the State Au-
-ditor totaling $5,212,229. The
difference represents claims for
refunds on gasoline used for
other purposes than motor We
hicles.
The amount collected is ap-
proximately 100000 larger than
the amount actually paid by mo-
florists during the twelve month
period because the state collected
the tax on all stocks in the hands
of dealers both May 1, 1925, and
May 1, 1926. Stocks on hand
May 1 were nearly 100000
gallons.

topic: God, as He has revealed
Himself to us" The question of
the origin of the universe has
baffled all the efforts of the
sages of antiquity and as con-
sequence many and various are
the explanations given. But in
the Bible account we have the
one and only true key to this
mystery. Both reason and reve-
lation testify that the universe
has Creator, Director, and a
Protector. Only when you have
the correct conception of the
true God, can you have the cor
rect answer to the question: How
can l be saved?
We extend a most cordial in
vitation to all. If you have no
church home, make OUR church
YOUR church. Don't send the
children to church on Sunday,
bring them. Sunday school at

Ancient Manuscript Bible

1t, as reported, the Soviet govern
ment of Russia transfers the con-
tents Of the Petrograd museum to
one of the churches in the city, the
building thus honored will become
the repository of at least one price
less relic, which will be in keeping
with the church. That is the Codex
Sinaiticus, one of the earliest trans
lations Of the Bible. This was dis
covered in 1859 in a monastery on
Mount Sinai, and presented to Car
Alexander II. It is believed to be
the oldest known manuscript of the
Old and New Testament, and prob
ably was written some time during
the Fourth century.

TRAFFIC NOT BLOCKED BY
PAVING

Paving half the road at a time
is being tried on two Minnesota
trunk highways this season, in
order to save motorists difficult
detours. This plan is in use on
one stretch of No. l near Hinck-
ley and on another stretch on No.
3 below Winona. In both cases
closing the road would have ne
cessitated long detours, and put
ting the detours in shape would
have been expensive. By paving
only half the road at time, the
road is open to one-way traffic
at all times.

MINNESOTA ALFALFA
ACREAGE INCREASES

st. Paul, MINI. Especial Core
spondence). An increase Of 32s
per cent in Minnesota's alfalfa
production between the years
1921 and 1925 inclusive, wher
the crop grew from 1900 to
$50, 600 acres, is revealed in sur.
vey just completed by the Fed
eral Land Bank.
Increase in alfalfa production
throughout the United States
has been but 20 per cent during
the five-year period.
Minnesota's individual gain OF
1923 per cent is therefore con.
sidered all the more remarkable
by Land Bank officials.
The survey was undertaken in
connection with the study of the
Gooding-K etcham seed staining
bill which became effective May
Goth.
"The direct effect which the
new law will have on diversified
farming in the northwest, will
soon be apparent" said H. X
Jennings, president of the Fed
eral Land Bank, commenting or
the figures. "The investigation
shows in the first place, the ra
pidly increasing popularity of al
falfa hay as a stock feed, which
in turn reflects the advance Of
Investigation. Today it is pos
sible to impose imported seed or
our farmers seed that is not
adapted to the northwest climate
Under the provisions of the Good
ing-Ketcham bill this imposition
will not be possible and as &
consequence our alfalfa produc-
ton should show another appre
cable increase. The best inter
ests of Investigation will there
by be promoted"
The Land Bank survey points
out that Minnesota is a great
seed consuming state; that il
raises little seed of it's own, anc
that it's seed demand is far in
excess of its production.
That Minnesota does not pro
duce more seed is considered the
more unusual in view of the fact
that the hardy Grimm variety
which has been the most sue
cessful in northwest states, was
introduced near Wayzata nearly
70 years ago.
Although we are encouraging
seed growing, we do not recon-
mend an indiscriminate produc
tion," said Mr.. Jennings, but
we do heartily advise the setting
aside of a small plat of the best
stand for seeding purposes. By
some such system a bigger CROP
of better alfalfa would be in
sured. We are anxious for the
time to come when every farm in
Minnesota grows alfalfa"

Visual Foot Ball
BY SOL METZGER.

An old trick that is dragged out
yearly and busted off and used
most effectively to score a touch
down when the defense seemingly
has stopped a drive right on it's
goal line, is the argument or fight
play. The team gets set to run off
a play when suddenly one of the
players, usually an end. arises and
baWls out the quarterback for call
ing such a signal as he has given.
Three of the backs stand up and
get into the argument, one of them
and the other six linemen sticking
to their charging positions. The ef-
feet of this verbal scrap on the for
wards Of the defense. all set to
charge, is to cause them to relax
and rise up. At that moment one
of the attacking team doing the
talking uses key word to have
the ball snapped by the. center to
the back, who hits thesline. This
play catches the opposition off
guard and permits the offensive
line to rip open the defensive
line.
George Gipp, Notre Danes
great back of a few years ago,
worked the play perfectly to win
a tight game from Indiana. Brown
used a version of it two seasons
ago to defeat Harvard.

| do not recall ever having heard of

My most spectacular play came In
the Bucknell game at Lynchburg, Va,
Thanksgiving day, 1907. 1t was a
hard-fought battle and during the
play we held Bucknell for downs on
our three-yard line. The ball was on
one side of the field and at the edge
of the playing ground was a high
barbed wire fence. We determined
to kick olt Of danger, but the fence
was so close we could not do so at
the point where the ball was. I asked
the officials to move the ball to the
other side Of the field but they re
fused.

the wire fence. The center stood side
wise and deliberately tossed the ball
over the fence to the punter. The

In addition to Levey, much ground

star
Evening star., 1926-11-03
Here is the play:

The right end sideswipes the oppos-
ing left tackle by heading backward
and crashing his knees with his right
side and hip.
He is assisted in this play by his
own right guard, who swings back of
the tackle and makes a straight-on
shoulder block. Right halfback and
fullback block the opposing left end
out.
Left guard and quarterback lead
the play through the opening between
the opposing end and tackle, each
blocking an opposing back.
Each tackle blocks the opposing
guard.
The left end makes a fake at the
opposing right tackle and then goes
down the field to block the opposing
right halfback.
The center blocks the man opposite
him to the left and then runs down
the field to get the opposing safety
man.
The pass is made we'll in advance of
the runner waist high.
The runner takes two quick steps
straight to the side, which gives the
appearance of wide end run or run
times for his blockers to get in con-
tact with their men. He then puts
on full steam straight ahead. passing
his own fullback and right halfback.
After crossing the line of scrimmage
a good halfback will often reverse his
field and cut sharply to his left. This
makes it easier for his mates to block
opposing backfield men who are In
motion to the right side of the field.
This is timed play. A ball carrier
who is too fast will spoil the play by
not giving his mates time to block
properly. The runner must be care
full not to get too fast start. The
speed may come In handy after the
men are blocked and he's across the
line and headed to the goal.
