the order named, also his time

The resignation Of DR.. Wilce as
football coach doesn't become eff
fective until the end Of the current
season. But now that Ohio State
hasn't lost a game this year
thereby differing somewhat from
Chicagoa and Michigan, which haven't
lost game since last Saturday
there seems to be tendency today
toward the notion that somebody
may have been too hasty and that

sible climaxes.
The second reyOIyes around
the report that Clarence Spears.
Minnesota coach, may be bIaIl.
tlished into coming i'm here next
year to see what he can do
about it.
Nobody appears to have anything
definite on Clarence in this respect,
except that his contract with Min
nesota expires this year and that
he is such an ardent exponent Of
the shift that he even has been
known to use 1t I'M connection with
his professional affiliations. Clar-
ence coached successfully and i
may say successfully at Dartmouth
and West Virginia before going to
Minnesota.
The third climax may be fur
ninshed. they say, by Sam Villa
man. present backfield coach here,
who had more than a modicum of
success at Anes and at East High
in Cleveland.
Samuel, as a candidate, Is no
body's chump, but that won u save
him from being forgotten in the
event that Wilce wins at least two
of his three big games yet to be
played with Princeton, Iowa, and
Illinois. There is none so sincerely
penitent as the crusader who finds
that he has campaigned against q
winner.
You should not be surprised II
you hear that DR.. Wilce has been
asked to reconsider his resignation.

Former Heavyweight Champion Of the
Ted "Kid" Lewis is one of
the extraordinary figures in
the modern history of the box
ing game. For one thing, he
is the only Englishman over
a span of years who came to
these shores and won a title.
He holds the astonishing record
of having fought one foeman 70
times and the added record that
the final fight of the rs brought q
bigger gate than all that had gone
before: he quit the us. A. and the

But Ted Lewis is q youth who.

of England.
Al remarkable fellow, this Ted
Lewis and to me the most remark
able thing about him is that he
fought Jack Britton 26 different
times and every fight of the rs was
q grudge affair and wholly on the
level.
For years and years they joked
about those meetings between Ted
and Jack; called them brother acts"
and christened the two fighters the
Siamese twins. Long ago Jack told
me that every fight was on the
square.
The other day Ted came into
my dressing room at the thsater
and the crowd began talking to him
about his career. mostly of that part
which related to Britton.
Every time we met it was with
only one thought in mind, and that
was to knock the other loose from
his reasoning power Ted related.
We formed a ring dislike for each

dislike hasn't ended yet, even

Jacks style and mine were
pretty much alike. After we
had mixed it in three or four
battles we began to know just
about every move the other
would make. And we were
always ready to take advantage
of the slightest mistake, the
smallest opening.
Sometimes I'd get the nod over
Jack sometimes he would win
from me. Others were no decision
tits or maybe it was a draw. But
we always gave the crowd action,

we were out there trying to estab-

WIDER ROADS

Discussing the advantage of

bune says:
1t is contended that a rule
against slow driving should be
enforced to prevent congestion
of traffic. On a narrow road the
slow drivers clog the lane. The
answer is, there should be no
narrow roads.
Road builders thought if they
made the road hard and smooth
and we'll graded. they had laid
down an automobile road. They
had not. They had built half a
road. It ought not to be neces
sary to compel driver to travel
more rapidly than be cares to.
Leisurely-minded people ought
not to find that the age cannot
tolerate their habits. There is
much to commend them. They
are probably more solid and SUBJ
stantial than habits of going
nowhere at high speed.

CRIME BY PSYCHOPATHlC ROUTE

sion that what the learned gen.

path is a man who kills you and
after, he has done it says be
could not help it. and then proves
it by an expert. This incident
probably explains to a large ex
tent why crime is so prevalent
in America. Criminals are given
every possible loophole to evade
the consequences of their acts.
First, a large percentage of
them are never captured. Sec.
oDd, when captured they are
never convicted. Third, when
convicted even for the most
serious crimes, they are to often

ing. Crime today in the cities
is an organized business.
The more complicated laws we
get, the easier they are to evade
and the less the individual citi
zen feels he can cope with the
situation. Delays become vex
atious and ultimate conviction
almost impossible, due to forget
fulness and the tendency to
overlook the facts connecting
the crime with the ultimate trial.
What the country needs is
more enforcement of fundamen
tai laws, more certain and more
speedy punishment, and more
assurance that convictions will
be secured snd sentences served
when a lawbreaker is proved
guilty.
We need fewer psychopathic
arguments and more actual pun
ishment.
