when it proclaimed in glowing terms"

though not actually, true" In 1921
when the Republicans came into power,
he said, the Nation was still paying

naturally there was drop in expenses

gardener has most wonderful opportunity To
create beautiful pictures. But If you would be sue

commonplace but very important things.
In my garden experience think the two things
that are the most important and the most neg

experiments of this nature you will know how much

As TO cultivation, if you do il right you will

were of much better quality. have tried similar
tests with other flowers, and the result is always
the same-the quality of bloom is greatly improved
by liberal cultivation OF course you cannot expect

Coach ROckne Not Too Gloomy
Over Grid Prospects to Smile

Knute said that these we're the men
out of whom he would have to organize
his 1923 outfit. and while he did not
wish to be unduly pessimistic, he would
nonetheless admit frankly that he had
a problem of stable proportions on his
hands.
"Notre Dame has a coaSt-to-coast
schedule this coming season." he went
on. I'VE play the Army in New York,
the Navy in Chicago and finish up
with Southern California in Los An
geleS. In addition, we tackle Wiscon-
sin. Penn State. Georgia Tech and Car
negie Tech. All four of the latter will
be unusually strong"
Estimating the strength of the lead
ing foot ball teams of the country this
year, he thought that on the West
Coast Stanford, Southern California,
Oregon State would rank in the order
named.
In the Middle West, he said Illinois
Minnesota, Purdue and Wisconsin struck
him as having the better prospects
Army, Navy. Dartmouth. New York Uni
versity and Yale are likely to be the
Eastern leaders, according to Knute,
with the Army and N. Y. u. more likely
to be on top. In the South he thought
the Georgia Tech outlook was the most
promising
Asked to forecast the biggest surprise
of the season, Knute intimated that a
defeat of the Army by Southern Metho-
dist on october might well happen.

Candidates for Tech Highs foot ball

University of Maryland, College Park, to

to earnest work today under direction of
Coach Elmer P. (Hap) Hardell. A drill
was held this morning and a longer and
more exacting session was scheduled this
afternoon.

drill, Hardell got his hopefuls on the

through brisk exercises designed to
loosen muscles and prepare them for

others who appear promising, but lack
experience. Hardell has let it be known
that every job on the eleven is open and
will go to the boy who shows the most,
including the right spirit, regardless of
whether he played on the team in 1927.
1t would appear that with the nucleus

should have strong eleven, but Hardell
is anything but optimistic, pointing out
that frequently when his prospects have
been best Tech has not Jared we'll.

SAYS ATHLETES GET
TOO MUCH ATTENTION

BERKELEY, Calf. September Up
Too much time is wasted celebrating
athletic victories by students. business
men and the public generally. while
"lamentable lack of appreciation is ac-
corded scientific attachments" Prof. Ira
B. Cross of the University of California
believes.

terday the economics instructor crit
icized Berkeleyans who greeted members
of the university crew, victors in the
Olympic shell races at Amsterdam. Only
two men who rowed in the winning race
arrived last week, but schools were
given half holiday.
IF Dr. Millikan, dlscoverer Of the
cosmic ray, truly wonderful feat, paid
visit to Berkeley, would he be given
the welcome that these two oar pullcrS
were accorded?" asked Prof. Cross. "Of
course not; he would hardly be noticed"
The professor also deplored Berkeleys
attempt to attract industries, declaring
that the city cannot remain an intel
lectual center and also become factory
town.

NEW YORK, September 4.-Knute
Rockne's gloomy attitude regarding the
prospects of the Notre Dame eleven this
Fall is hardly borne out by the cheerful,
illuminating smile which the camera
caught as he was stepping blithely down
the Bots de Boulogne in company with
Glenn Warner recently
The photo-it has just come to the
writer-reveals Knute in a fiat straw
hat and clothes which suggest the
Partisan sartorial mode, while the
Stanford coach is modishly embel-
lished by yegg cap and a cane.
Evidently the one flaw that has
marred the full enjoyment of the pere-
CARNATIONS of this South Send Ulysses
is the gridiron outlook for his team as
he presented it to the interviewer of
Paris newspaper
OF the 1927 team, he said, 10 men
have been lost, leaving only Miller, the
left tackle and captain Asked about
requirements, Knute shook his head
sadly.
THE second team last year was so
weak that the Navy scored against it
after one minute of play. The Army
made touchdown against the same
combination in two minutes. That's
the reason, added Knute, Frightening
up, why called them my minute men.
