State must play better football than
it did against Northwestern and
Michigan. What is even more to
the point Ohio State is really ca
pable Of playing a much better
brand.
Princeton so far has played up to
the fondest hopes of it's supporters
and is certain to be undefeated when
| it clashes with the Ohioans, which,
at such a time, may be thrice de-
feated.
Chicago is Ohio States next OPP
ponent, while Princeton meets Will
liam and Mary. Chicago, after its
defeat by Oklahoma in the opening
game of the season, has trounced
two Big Zen rivals, Indiana and
Purdue, and vanquished Pennsyl-
yania.
Ohio State. to cope with
Princeton, must improve it's
play at least Is per cent. State,
on the surface. appears to have
great potential strength but SO
far las failed to make the most
of it.
WANTED BLOCKING PLAYER
In the Michigan game, the Ohio
State line more than held its own,
although it struck me that the
Michigan ends, Captain Oosterbaan
in particular, outplayed their op-
ponents.
It was in the fundamentals of the
game that the losers eemed weak
est. The tackling was very ordi-
nary, the interference poor and the
reel need Of a good blocking back
was apparent.
In this connection, I recall q con-
versation ] once heard between a
prominent southern coach and a
former star who played under him.
Coach, you are going to get a
great drop-kicker and a fine open
field runner in John Smith, from
our high school next fall" said the
former star.
That's fine, but can he block -
was the way the coach dismissed
the player under discussion.
That seemed to, be Ohio
States greatest trouble in the
Michigan game. 1t had plenty
of backs, and as result, none
Of them ran very far.
GILBERT IS GREAT BACK
No doubt Michigan has produced
greater backs than Louis Gilbert
but certainly there never was bet
ter halfback than the Gilbert Of
Michigan who scored the 81 points
for his team against Ohio State.
! Gilbert's punting was threat
that Michigan held over Ohio State
throughout the game. He gained
yardage in practically every punting
duel staged. Nothing is more dis
; couraging to team than to be con-
stantly out-punted.
In returning punts and carrying
the ball through a broken field
Gilbert gave a performance that wa.
| on par with his exceptional punt
} ing.
The mastery manner in which hi
!. would kick the ball out of bounds
after it had travelled 35 or &C yards
reminded one of Harry Kipke, nov
| a Michigan coach, at his best.
II X u
To top off his many threats
!, was the ease with which he re.
ceived or threw forward passes.
He looked every inch All-Amcr-

ANOTHER METAL
By Garrett P. Serviss

These, according to the new
theories, must be arranged in
four orbits" or concentric
spheres, the first, or innermost,
containing two electrons, the sec
ond and the third eight each, and
the fourth, the outermost, five.
So intimate has become the
study of these atomic solar sys-
tems"-formerly known only az
atoms and supposed to be solid
and so confident are the investi-
gators OF the soundness of their
conclusions, that it will no doubt
be through such study that science
will try to discover how vanadium
can be made to render still greater
service to mankind than any it
has hitherto performed-for, as
yet, those who have disclosed the
not know exactly what to expect
Of 1t.
And yet no man has ever seen
the electrons circling in the micro
cosmic roominess of an invisible
atom, where there Is relatively
as much open space as in the
solar system" Thse miracles
OF creation are for the mental eye
alone. For science has its re-
quirements of faith also. But
scientific faith Is subject to re-
vision with the progress of knowl-
edge-and of theory. Belief in
the individuality of the atom was,
not so many years ago. absolute
"a tenet of science-and many
authoritative volumes were written
on the theories which such belief
gave rise to.
But now the atom is accepted
as q complicated system, the
foundations of the old physics
have been upheaved, the old
theories have been thrown away,
and yet science keeps straight on
her course, not disturbed but I'M
heartened and stimulated by the
discovery Of her errors.

A MOTHER metal has been-not
n discovered but brought out
into the open. for during a hun
bred years it has been known
only by name and not by sight.
1t Is vanadium, which Messrs.
Marden and Rich of the Westing.
house Lamp Company have at
last succeeded in producing from
its oxide in a pure form.
The word comes from VanadIs,
a name for a Morse sea deity also
called Freyja, and there is some
thing suggestive OF mythology in
the magical way in which a mere
trace Of the metal lends strength
and resisting power to steel. In
fact 1t Is through this curious
property that the name vanadium
had become widely known, while
the metal itself remained, as 1t
were, in hiding.
There are several other more or
less rare metals which possess q
similar influence when alleged in
small quantities with steel.
Among these are nickel, chrom-
ium and molybdenum. Nature
herself has employed this prop
erty in her celestial laboratories,
where she makes huge meteors
composed of iron combined with
nickel, as IL she were forming
armor plate for the dreadnoughts
Of space.
Vanadium as recently produced
out of its compounds in an cleo
trio furnace at 400 degrees
Fahrenheit appears first in the
form of glittering white beads,
which are soft and ductile and
when remelted can readily be
rolled into wire, as we'll as put
into other shapes.
The inner structure Of the atom
Of vanadium was inferred before
the metal was obtained in pure
form. It's atomic number" is
twenty-three, which means that it
contains twenty.three electrons
revolving around its nucleus.

English As Universal Language

1t has been predicted frequently
that radio would be of greatest value
to the world in its forming univer-
sal means of communication between
different countries, and in its esta-
blishment of common interests. This
necessarily means an understanding
of some common language.
1t has been recently predicted by
Sir Isral Golanez, one of the fore
most authorities on the English lam
guage, that English will become that
common language.
The main fact in support of this
idea is that the race for supremacy
of the ether rests unquestionably be-
between Great Britain and America
the English language will be substan-
TALLY the same.
While this establishment of the
English language may seem very
desirable thing, there are some who
are alarmed for fear that it will blot
out some of the flowry and roman
tic languages of other countries which
have contributed so much to our liter
ature.
