lust how do these devices work?
Are they applicable to all sets? Wnat
are their various forms?
The radio enthusiast asks and, In
inuuiring, he learns that these con-
trolls are limited to sets operating on
the one dial principle. However.
there are many of these in use ana
the trend seems to be toward tnem.
The attachment to the set itself IS
so arranged that it is mechanically
connected to the dial shaft through
special flexible betting. In the shorter
type of remote control device the op-
orator turns the mechanism mechan-
ically through a six-foot flexible shaft.
In the more elaborate arrangement,
however, the movement of the dial
operating mechanism is entirely elec'
tr;c. Movement of the dials in either
direction is effected by a small motor
controlled by q switch and rheostat
built into the control itself. Volume
and tone, of course, are electrically
controlled.
In the picture of the future one
sees radio apparatus as complicated
piece of mechanism placed in some
closet where improvements in circuit
and equipment can be made as they
develop. Every room is wired for
the speaker and for the remote con-
troll. Thus, all one has to do when
desiring an evening of radio enter
tainment is to select comfortable
spot in the home or apartment
carrying to it the speaker and the
control.
And yet they say there is nothing
new under the sun!

CHANGED RULES
CONFUSE FANS
Moving Of Goal Posts 10 Yards
Back Bothers Players Gaug-
ing Distance

New York, Sept. 26.-R)-Out Of
the football rule changes which, in
the main. failed to cause any de-
Walton from the general standard of
play in opening contests, one which
had been given little consideration
by coaches and officials seems to be
causing some confusion to players
and spectators.
The chief reason for moving the
goal posts 10 yards beyond the goal
line was to emphasize goals after
touchdown and goals from the field.
While the objective may have been
attained opening games only served
to confound players attempting to
gauge distance when receiving punts
and when carrying the ball near the
goal. Spectators likewise were I'M
certain regarding the distance to be
covered for touchdown.
Suggestions already have arisen

COACH
HAS HARD JOB:
SEEKS WEIGHT
Phelan Must Whip Together
Line Capable of Backing Up
Cotton Wilcox

Lafayette, Ind, Sept. 26.-tP-
With virtually his entire front wall
swept away by the last graduation,
Football Coach Jimmy Phelan is
confronted with a real job at Pur-
due University in whippin. together
a line which will hold long enough
for the battering "Cotton" Wilcox
to get under way on the gridiron this
fall.
Six yawning holes must be filled
and the requirements must be better
than their predecessors if Purdue
is to continue it's football improve
ment, it is held. The line must be
heavier, Phelan said, to withstand
the impact Of the opposition's first
lunge, and give the ball carriers a
fair chance to swing into motion.
To Build Offensc Around Wilcox
AS has been the case for the last
two years, Purdue's offensive will
be built around Halfback Wilcox,
who is conceded to be one of the
finest players in the Western Con-
ference. For sheer force of attack,
Wilcox is one of the most dangerous
footballers in the Big Ten and once
under way he has the speed to out
race most of his opponents. He also
handles the ball well and. unlike
offensive stars, is a bulwark of
strength on the defensive.
The backfield situation is more
pleasing to Phelan by far than that
surrounding the line, for if anything
he feels it will be stronger than it
was in 1926-the best football year
the Engineers had experienced in
years. Lining up with Wilcox will
be koransky, who many football
followers believe will run the "cotton
top race for individual stardom
honors this fall. Leichtle, Randy,
Speidel and Wilson, other regular
backfield men a year ago, will be
back. A sophomore named WEIGH
also is counted on to be strong
contender for a regular berth. He
was an outstanding freshman player.

BISON ARE LOOMING AS C0NTENDERS
FOR NORTH CENTRAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Fargo, N. D., Sept. 26.-With the
North Central conference schedule
ready to swing six teams into action
next Saturday, the North Dakota
Bison loom as a sudden contender
for the loop championship.
When the training camps opened
this fall, foes Of the buffalo bat
tiers were unwilling to concede them
an even chance for the bunting on
account Of the loss of Claudio Miller,
circuit sensation for three seasons,
together with numerous stellar
teammates. In fact the outlook was
rather dark for Ion Cortright's men.
Cortright has two complete back
fields, every man q star in the
game, yet no one player outstanding
above his mates. Two powerful full
backs in the veteran Walt Clasen
and the yearling Paul Gertin have
been ripping the seconds to shreds.
In the halfback division George
Hermes, vern Hickerson, Captain
Cy Peschel and Anthony Miller have
been tearing off yardage around the
ends off tackle.

New York, Sept. 26.-(P)-The
curtain goes up on the full cast of
the 1927 football drama this week
with virtually every major team in
the country getting into action. The
contests are bound to throw some
light on potentialitics.
Yale, Harvard. Princeton, Dart
mouth, and other big teams of the
east will step out for test games and
some of them have drawn opponents
who may force the favorites to en-
ploy all their power and strategy to
get winning start.
Harvard meets the University of
Vermont and Coach Horween will
endeavor to get line on the men
who have been given their ranks,
based on showings in the practice
sessions. Harvard engages Purdue
a week from next Saturday in the
first big intersectional game of the
year.
Yale to Meet BOwdoin
Yale, getting ready for season
that includes games with Brown
Army, Dartmouth, Princeton and
Harvard, opposes Bowdoin next Sat-
urday.
Princeton goes into the Amherst
game without Jack Slagle and there
are s.erally hosts who would argue
that the Tigers chances rest upon
the development of a new team be-
cause Of that loss.
Army tackles Detroit university

Hoffman Proves Able
The first quarter opened with q
seesaw back and forth on Ashley's

and a muffed pass turned the ball
over to Ashley, which failed to make
