It might be said that if a. per cent
beer is not Intoxicating then it IS not
prohibited by the Eighteenth Amendment.
The failure of Ontario beer, however,
consists in not being. Intoxicating enough.
It's kick is slow and expensive "In
spite of the modification Of the liquor law
to the extent that beer may be Sold Mr..
Sweet writes, there is much complaint
that hard liquor is sold surreptitiously,
with bootlegging as hourishing as it is
on the other side of the border, where it
IS frequently and vociferously contended
that il we could just have beer and light
wines everything would be lovely"
In fact, anti-prohibition is hampered by
the inability OF the vets to find an alter
native for prohibition other than the sa-
loon. Sooner or later the issue must
take its true form. Between the privately
conducted saloon liquor business and pro-
hibition there is no middle ground yet dis

always accompanied any actual regula-

and so on. To get rid of the liquor outlaw
the only policy in the end is prohibition

Stanford and Alabama, Un-
defeated During 1926, to
Battle New Years.

BH NEA SerUtce
PASADENA, Cal, Dec. 90
Stanford VS.. Alabama There's a
choice football dish for you. It will
be served New Years day in this
city as the feature event of the Tour
nament of Roses.
Stanford, champions of the coast,
will clash with Alabama, best in the
South, for what many of the foot
ball experts consider the national
collegiate championship.
1t will not be Alabama's first trip
West. Last season, after winning
the southern title for the second
time, Alabama was invited to min
gle on the gridiron with the Univer.
sity of Washington, undefeated on
the coast. The invitation was ac
cepted.
Thriller Fray Recalled
Washington was a top-heavy favor
lite. In its lineup was George VIII
son, heralded by many as a better
ball carrier than Red Grange. The
outcome was regarded as a certain
victory for Washington.
For a time it seemed as If all the
experts for once might be right, for
Alabama trailed until the flag end
of the game. Then, opening up a
forward pass attack that bewildered
Washington, the southerners came
from behind to win a glorious vic.
tory, 20-19.
So that the final game Of the 1925
football season, played on the first
day of the new year, was in a sense
the biggest surprise of all
This Years Record
Indicated in the South. Alabama
in nine games scored 242 points
while the opposition made only
twenty, three touchdowns.
In every game except the Sewanee
contest, Alabama won decisively. Sc
vance, playing it's best game of the
year, caught Alabama at low tide
and held the southern champions TO
a 20 score.

1t is a rather interesting fact that
the Santa Clara College team,
coached by Adam Walsh, who cap
tanned Rockne's great Sotre Dame
eleven of 1924, piled up the highest
score against Stanford, fourteen
points.
Since both Stanford and Notre
Dame beat Southern Californ a by
the same score, 1912, Alabama s
showing against Stanford will offer
much food for thought.

But in my own experiences I en-
