this afternoon are a few words. The
poet wrote: THE Romans were like
brothers in the brave day Of Old Not,
the Romans were wealthy (which they
were); not the Romans were strong in
arms (which cannot be denied they
were); but, 'the Romans were like
brothers." Historians tell US that in
ancient Sparta every man and woman
held himself or herself accountable for
the we'll being of every child in the COM
munity in which he or she lived. So
then, we can safely contend that the
glory of ancient Ro,ue and the s%plend0r
of Sparta were founded pom co opera
ton. Now let US jump from ancient
Rome and Sparta to more modern times.
What do you think created-brought
into being the great and glorious Re
public of the United States Of America?
Patriotism, you say? | tell you no; for
even with patriotism the Fathers of the
Republic would have hung separately
were it not that they hanged together.
Cooperation is what founded the UniOn
and it was co. operation that preserved
its existence when later it was threaten
ed with dissolution. When Lincoln was
at the head of the government every
man in his Cabinet was more educated
than he was; but Lincoln was a genius.
The men around Lincoln had education
Of the head; but Honest Abe had educa-
ton of the head and of the beart and for

operation. There was a time when Lin
coin was told that Stanton (StantOn was
Secretary of War; should be watched,
that at a Cabinet meeting he had re-
marked that the old gorilla (meaniDg
Lincoln) could not do without him as he
does nothing without first consulting
him. Here was a situation! A very
ordinary man would have Quarreled with
Stanton at the first Opportunity-possi-
bly,, would have made an opportunity
and Stanton would have been compelled
to leave the Cabinet mark well. Lincoln
knew that Stanton believed that he
Stanton was the whole administra-
tion'); an ordinary President land there

food, Belgium's stand; French diplomacy
and so on. But | tell you, giving full
credit to all the forces which have men
toned and to all others, it was co-Opera-
ton that won the greatest war OF all
times. Never before have nations sunk
their indivjGuaIitles as such and banded
together for one common purpose-tne
overthrow Of the Central P0WerS-as did
the Allies in the recent war. When Re.
tain was in command he appealed tor and
received cooperation; and so did JOttre;
and so did F0ch; and so did each and
every person who held positions, or Of
fees, of importance during the World
War. So then We can prove not only that
cooperation has been good to the nations
of old, but also that it is OF inestlmable
value to the nations of this day.
What about societies associations
and individuals? What is good for the
nation, is good for associations OF what

3 OUTSTANDING
GRID GAMES TO
OCCUPY STAGE

| NEW YORK, Nov Champion
ship hopes will be at stake in at, least
half dozen college football battles
next Saturday, east, south and west,
but none hold forth prospects of any
more thrills than those between Wash
ington and Stanford on the Pacific
coast, Notre Dame and Minnesota in
the middle west Pittsburgh, and Wash
ington and jefferson in the east.
Of this scXtet, only Stanford has met
defeat but Pop Warmers Cardinals
rank among the most powerful elevenS
on the Pacific coast, nevertheless, and
may put an end to Washingtop's I'M
broken march to victory.
The feeling seems to be that II any
outfit is going to stop Notre Dame
this season, it will be Minnesota, led
by the all-American fullback Herb
Jcesting. The Hoosiers have w e's t
Point and Southern California, to
hurdle, later on, but if they beat the
Gophers, Rockne's ramblerS will be well
on the way toward their goal of a
national championship. a55f Ia
The battle between Pitts Panthers
and Washington and Jefferson easily
may turn cut to be the hardest fought
and most spectacular of the day.
These two Pennsylvania rivals seldom
have been more closely matched. Both
have unblemished records neither
beaten nor tied. They don't need any
additional incentive to spur them on
but it exists, anyway, in the. aspira-:
lions of each for mythical eastern title
honors.
The fur and passes also are likely
7 to fly in such other outstanding con-
tests of the coming weekend sas
Southern Methodist and Texas Aggies,
Chicago and Michigan Georgia Tech
and Vanderbilt, Princeton and Ohio
State, Pennsylvania and Harvard.
The collapse of two of the outstand-
ing eastern teams of 1926, Brown and
Lafayette, is one Of the most striking
turns of the current gridiron campaign
Both were among the undefeated last
season. Lafayette ran through nine
games in a row without being checked
and Browns famous iron men," al
though held to tie by Colgate at, the
close gained a national reputation
Both took the field for 1927 with
bright prospects and most of their
veterans on hand, although Brown
felt the loss of such starts as Mishel,
Broda and Orland Smith. The other
''iron men" haven't proved so durable
and Brown has lost its last four
games to Penn, Yale, Lebanon Valley
and Temple.
/ Lafayette got off to a good start but
stumbled into a. tie with West Vir-
ginia, then lost to Washington and
Jefferson and Penn State on success
sive Saturdays to skid out OF the
tle-contending picture.
In any discussion of forward passing
it is worth while to note the skill of
Schachern and Mack Flenniken crack
combination of Little Geneva college,
in Pennsylvania.
Coached by "Bo" McMillin, whose
passing ability helped him gain ALL
American honorS a few years ago, the
Geneva team has clinched the tri-state
conference title. for the third success

Football success in the various sec
lions of the country seems to. run
in cycles.
The east is experiencing this year
more than it's share of failures in
the leading intersectional clashes.
The first two big upsets handed
the effete fasteners were the defeats
of Yale by Georgia and Harvard by
Purdue.
Hardly had the gasping died away
when Notre Dame ran rough Shod
over the great Navy team, winning
rather easily, 1876. Il
Colgate, which usually boasts one
of the best teams in the Atlantic
sector, has twice been Inundated.
First by Virginia Poly, next by
Wabash. A single touchdown was
the margin of victory in each in
stance.
Last but not least of the reverses
was the victory of Chicago over the
highly touted Pennsylvania team,
1877.
To get an even break on the
season the east must do some fast
stepping in the interSectiOnaI
games that remain to be played.
Pitt Team Is Good
While the east has not been with
out it's conqueSts in the intersectional
clashes, most of the victories recorded
have been more or less of minor
nature.
|. The Army holds two victories over
the west, having won from both
Marquette and Detroit, the latter
team holding the West Pointers to
a 60 score The Army stilN has
Notre Dame to reckon with.
i Princeton has beatenS Washington
and Lee, 1870, while Pittsburgh
Swan1ped Drake, 800. Pittsburgh, by
the way, seems to have a team that
rivals the best that Pop Warner ever
turned out at that institution.
Unless the west falls down
! badly in the big games still to
be played, 1927 will simply go
down in the books as a bad year
AOr the east.
Offer Comparative Basis
! 1t should be easy at the close of
the season to draw a comparison be-
tween coast football on one side
arrayed against the east and west on
the other
! Southern California is booked to
meet Notre Dame at Chicago These
two teams are outstanding and should
provide a great battle with Nctre
Dame favored to win.
! Pennsylvania will play California
at Berkeley on December 81. Stanford
is angling for a game at Palo Alto
on December 10. Pittsburgh is a
possibility, am told. Nothing could
be more fitting, since Glenn Warner
coached at Pitt before going to Stan
ford
And there is still the tournament
of roses game, an annual feature
staged at Pasadena. Those in charge
would like either Stanford or South
ern California to represent the west
but it is understood they are having
trouble making such arrangements.

Looks as if these games would
pr0long the regular football sea-
son about four weeks with Cali

NEW YORK, Nov. l (R-Taking a
hand in title affairs in three boxing
divisions the New York state athletic
commission today turned down the re-
quest of Pennsylvania boxing authorit-
les to recognize Benny Bass of Phila-
delphia as worlds featherweight cham
pion.
Bass, the commission ruled, must box
Tony Canzoneri of New York to settle
the featherweight title situation. Can
zoneri defeated Johnny Dundee, the
retired featherWeight champion, here
a week ago.
ice Click, New York, must box Jack
Bernstein before the commissions ap-
prevail will be given to match for
the junior, lightweight title with Tod
Morgan, of Seattle, the champion,
scheduled at Madison Square Garden
December 16.
Tiger Flowers, Georgia negro mid
dleweight, was put at the top of the
commissions list of .challengers for the
new light heavyweight champion,
Tommy Loughran, but largely as a
gesture, since Loughran will not be
called upon to defend his l175-pound
honorS for about five months. Flow

MICKEY WALKER
K. O.'S MCTICUE
in ROUND One


COLISEUM, CHICAGO, NOV. / Qp--
Mickey Walker, worlds n1iddleweight
champion, knocked out Mike McTigue,
former light heavyweight titleholder
in the first round Of a scheduled ten
round fight at the Coliseum here to-
night.
McTigue, the Methuselah Of the
ring, was knocked down three times
before he fell. across the middle Of the
rope, his hands at his side, his. eyes
closed, helpless and unable to defend
himself. There he was counted out.
The end came Two minutes and
fifteen seconds. after the fight started.
Walker boxing cautiously, did not get
warmed up until few punches had
been exchanged - then he suddenly
dashed out with right to jaw, fol-
lowing it up with left hook which
knocked the venerable McTigue into
the ropes.
Walker sailed in, driving terrific
punches to the jaw, and McTigue,
looking like an old man. started slid
ing to the floor, but fell across the
second rope and hung there.
After nine seconds had been, count
ed, NcTigue attempted to struggle to
his feet. He was knocked down again,
this time in Walkers corner He got
up and stood there helpless while
Walker numerically beat him about
the head. He went down again, got
up at nine and then Walker cracked
him with rights ana Iefts. He did not
fall the last time, but dropped to the
floor completely knocked out. Nc
Tigue's seconds worked over him fran
tically for at least five minutes before
he regained consciousness.
Tonight's battle was the second bat
tie betwee ! the two Irishmen. They
fought back in 1925, when Walker was
welterweight, with the result in
doubt Tonight Walker left nothing
for McTigue to worry about.
Walker weighed 162 pounds, while
NIcTigue scaled 1717a. McTigue made
only feeble effort to fight, landing
only one solid punch, stiff right to
the jaw
Roleaux Saguero, Sudan light heavy
weight, scored his third straight knock
out by stopping Benny Ross of Buffalo
in the second round Of scheduled
ten round bout.
The Cuban southpaw dropped his
opponent with left hook to the jaw,
and the Buffalo boxer was counted
out. Ross held the Cuban fairly even
in the first, trading wallops5 with him.
Abe Balm, Of Newark, N. j., won the
verdict from George Manoleuln, Bos-
ton, in six rounds at 1853 pounds. Balm
was fouled in the fifth, but continued
after a minutes rest.
Joe OMalley of Columbus, Ohio,
weighing 149 pounds, and Johnny
Sherrod of Chicago, boxed six rounds
to d draw in another preliminary
Sherrod fought five rounds with
broken left arm.
Dave Barry, who refereed the Gene
Tunney-Jack Dempsey fight in Soldier
field, made his disappearance as
ring official in a, six-round prelimin-
ary to the McTigue- Walker fight, ana
got a jeering reception.

When the habit OF courage is

then that person can he depended

1t Ia persistent drill, patient
teaching, wise counsel and good

throw off the shaCkles Of fear.
For as surely as habit controls
other actions, habit controls the
trait called courage"
Sometimes it is companions who

There are undoubtedly many fear
