Moles belong to the Talpitlae
family Of mseees eating mammals
and to the genus Sealops. The
mole common to our section Of the

nearly black, and has forty-four
teeth. Some more teeth and others
less. Examine carefully the mouth
of the next mole you catch and
you will see how it differs FROM
the mouse, but you will find sharp
canine teeth like those of dog.

APPEARS FAR DISTANT
Yves, Points Foot Ball Schedule for Next Year Shows
That There Is No Indication of Schools
Settling Differences.
November so Notre Dame at New

November 30. Notre Dame at New
York.
December %, Stanford at Paio Alto.
The schedule Of 10 games for next
year compares in strength and scope
with that for this Fall In the major
list Illinois replaces Nebraska and will
be met under the terms of a two-year
agreement calling for the Cadets to play
in Urbana. or possibly Chicago, in 1880.
The 1929 game with Nctre Dame is
moved back from its usual early No
vcmber date to a position as the CHI
max event Of the Armys Eastern
schedule.
The Army's trip to Stanford will mark
the second time either one of the service
elevens has gone beyond the Rockies.
The Navy iourneyed West In 1924 to
play the New Year day game with
Washington at Pasadena.
IN commenting on the new schedule,
Gen Smith, who was a cadet when foot
ball was first introduced at West Point,
said.
Foot ball schedules for this year and
the two ensuing years are more siren
uous in their demands than West Point

defeat. The gate receipts are no less
sizeable in defeat than in victory.
All Of which brings to mind the fact
that one of the more important phases
Of modern intercollegiate foot ball is
the growing issue as between the d.
rectors OF play E.. the coaches and
trsiners-and the business ONCE inter-
ests. Defeat means just as much to
both. but In different ways. The
coaches are reminded that too many
beatings may mean the loss of their
Jobs: the business crowd know that
rapidly clicking turnstiles depend UPON
the prestige Of their eleven. But 1t is
the coach always who goes when they
begin to buy red ink bottles in the bust
ness Office. And that is the reason why
you hear the coach do less cheering
than any one else over one Of those
sciutillating schedules.

EXPANSION nteeconaI Idea Feature OF Coming foot ball Cdmpa

teams have ever faced. While we will
go out to win every game, no extra
privileges will be allowed our players,
The Military Academys sole objective
is to train young men TO be officers In
the Army. While athletic training is
important, it will always be subordin-
ated TO academic and military work
and our high standard will not be
lowered in any degree
n yEW YORK, September 5 t4).--
There will be no Army-NaVy
foot ball game for at least two
more years This much can be
said definitely and the proba
hjlifv is. barring unexpected develop
ments that the service rivals who split
over eligibility issues last year will re-
main apart for q good deal longer.
The Army has completed its 1929
schedule without the Navy being in
cluded.
Likewise it is understood all the major
games on the West Point list for 1880
have been agreed upon again TO the
exclusion of the Naval Academy.
Talk of a compromise between the
service rivals. current within the past
week appears therefore, to have no
foundation. This is not because there
has been any widening OF the breach
but merely because the points of view
Of the two institutions are too radically
different at present to permit any COM
promise.
Elements in and out Of both acade-
mics unquestionably would like to get
them together again on the gridiron,
as we'll as on other athletic fields. These
elements may help to smooth matters
over or they may hinder according to
the point of view. but few of those
we'll informed on the situation at either
academy views a reconciliation as very
likely or even possible for some time
to come.
