SPRINGS INNOVATION

~ UPPKE'S innovation caused
+ the spectators to gasp with
- astonishment as the Illinois
team trotted on the field.
There is no question but that it
len ed the passer in picking out his
eligible men. Coaches now resort to
many different articles to produce
the same result
Two years ago when Illinois
played Michigan, the game in which
Red" Grange ran wild. scoring four
truchdowns in IL minutes of play,
Zuppkc pulled another stunt that
has since been widely copied.
1t was extremely hot, more like
a day in August that early fall! 1t
was weather that would have been
considered perfect for baseball, but
far too warm for the grid sport.
About an hour before game time,
Zuppke, / am told, gave rush order
to the football manager for several
dozen half hose.

ELEMENT OFF SURPRISE.

1TSl HE football manager, schooled
/! in Zuppke discipline, was
- mighty curious, but didn't
ask the reason. 1t was given when
Illinois ran on the field for the start
of the game.
Heavy wooden stockings absorb
much PRECIPITATION and have ten
dency to make the legs feel heavy.
1t is reality, not pure imagination.
The Illinois players had discarded
the heavy wooden stockings, put on
the half hose, and the various train
ers hound the bare legs with ad
hesive tape for several inches above
the top of the hose.
There is no doubt about the ef-
5cjency of the stunt. Incidentally
there was the psychological effect,
onaMichigan, the element of surprise,
as the Illinois squad appeared on the
gridiron stockingless.
Then to make good Zuppke's
stunt, the fleet Red" Grange en-
joyed the most sensational day Of
his illustrious career

Modern industry is not built upon founda-
ton of brick and mortar, stone and steel. It's
real foundation is an invisible fabric of IDEAS
says ]. H. Van Deventer in Industrial Manage
ment'.
On this invisible foundation the business of the
Standard Oil Company Qndiana) has been built.
The history of the growth of this Company is Il
history of the development of ideas.
From the beginning the Standard Oil Company
Qndiana) has realized the importance of this
invisible foundation.
1t was among the first organizations to estab-
lish research laboratory adequately equipped
for scientific investigation and study place ,
where ideas might be encouraged and developed
and tested.
In this laboratory men of initiative and scien-
tific training have been brought together to work
out the problems of petroleum and make this
great natural resource of increasing service to
mankind.
In the seclusion of this laboratory, Standard
Oil Company Qndiana) ideas have originated
which have revolutionized the entire industry.
For example, in the research laboratory of the
Standard Oil Company Qndiana) were developed
the first processes for producing gasoline by
cracking, which have more than doubled the
yield obtained from crude oil by former methods.
These processes were leased to competitors and
thus benefited the entire industry and ultimately
all the motorists of the country.
Recently new theory of scientific fabrication
has been worked out in the research laboratory
of the Standard Oil Company Qndiana).
This discovery has resulted in the development
of new motor oil which solves many of the
lubricatng problems that have baffled experts
for years. The far reaching Importance of this
discovery to motorists cannot be overstated.
These are but two examples of revolutionary
ideas originated in the laboratory of the Stand
ard Oil Company Qndiana) which have been
converted into important benefits to every
motorist in the Middle West.
Every product of the Standard Oil Company
Qndiana) is the result of careful scientific re-
search backed by experience.
Upon this invisible foundation of ideas and
scientific research the Standard Oil Company
Qndiana has built the sturdy structure of its vast
organization to serve the 80 million people of
the Middle West

Noted Landmark
Raced After 26O
Years Time

Lynn Mass. Sept 20--lP,-An-
other noted landmark of old New
England has yielded to the march of
progress. The historic Minute Man
Tavern. which has stood for more
than 200 years at Federal and
Marion streets here and was a
famous gathering place in reeolu-
tionary days. has been RACED to make
room for a modern apartment house.
During the revolution the old
structure was used by both the
colonial and British troops. and
General Lafayette was once a guest
there. One of the legends of its ear
ly history was that a colonist who
has learned of the landing of the
British at Boston and feared that
they would capture him. hid in the
huge brick oven of the tavern for
two days. and on attempting to
come out became wedsed in the oven
so tightly that friends had to tear
down part of the oven to extricate
him.
The old tavern was later converted
into a dwelling house. and was Oc-
cupied for more than 200 years until
a few months ago. when the present
owner decided to tear it down. Rec
ords concerning the structure have
been preserved by the Lynn His
toricsl Society.

Bay State Health
Heads See Possible
Return Flu Disease

Boston, Sept. 21-(P)-An unduly
large number of cases of influenza
and other respiratory diseases are
expected to occur during the COMING
winter by the Massachusetts dcpart
ment of public health.
1t was made known today that the
department is preparing for such a
situation and that tomorrow an ey-
haustice report entitled influenza
in Massachusetts" will be mailed tc
all local health authorities While d
repetition of the 1918 calamity was
not forecast, it was predicted thai
the coming winter might witness
conditions possibly as serious as in
1899 or 1900.
The report is the result of an ex-
tended study by DIR. Herbert L
Lombard. a member of the depart.
ment. and DR.. Carl r. Deering of the
Harvard school of public health. II
their findings they set forth:
I'VE are of the opinion that the
respiratory group. including infiu-
! enza, may be unduly prevalent il
Massachusetts during the winter Of
1926 and 1927, as in 1916 and 1922
possibly as in 1899 or 1900. but there
seems to be no reason to expect any
great calamity such as that of 1915
or even that of 1891 to 1898"
In an accompanying letter. DR.
George H. Bigelow. state health com.
| missioner, declares, Although the
| predicted epidemic may not come
just as prophesied, there is do doub
that we will again at some time have
to face a situation more or less SINH
lar to that of 1918 and 1919.
You will then be asked what ca,
be done to prevent the disease an(
prevent deaths from it. Our past eX.
perience has shown that we can dc
little to prevent the spread of infec'
! ton. and. Of course, we have no spe.
cific personalities for it. However
by urging everyone to reduce tn.
number of human contacts to :
minimum, it may be possible to spar
some person from the disease.
"On the other hand, We can Dc
! much to prevent deaths from The
disease and its complications If ",
can impress upon everyone the dan.
ger that influenza presents in the
seriousness of its complications anC
urge everyone to so to bed and tt
remain there until his physician al.
lows him to get up, there is M
doubt that the mortality can b.
greatly leSSened."

King George Gets
Grouse With Old
Hammer Guns

York, Sept 2i.-(PJ-king George
made his record bag of IL grouse In
one drive at Abbeystead with two
pairs of old-fashiored double bar
relied hammer guns manufactured 30
odd years ago.
\ AS a young man the king laid the
foundation of his reputation as shot

them for sentimental reasons.
An English firm which makes guns
for the crowned heads of half the
world, has been keeping the Kings
guns in condition for years. AT the
end of each shooting season, the guns
are sent to the factory, stripped,
cleaned. overhauled, given an oil bath
and put in storage until the next year.
