SUPERIOR. Wis. Sept. 3.-tPl-
Preparations for what may be John
Coolidge's permanent separation
from the home or his parents, cast
a shadow Of gloom yer the summer
White House today and accounted
for most of the activities there,
where bags and trunks were being
packed for his journey east tonight.
Anticipating with great sorrow
the departure Of her son. on his way
to find a Job and 70 work out his
own future. Mrs. Coolidge watched
and helped in the packing of his
luggage. As early as yesterday
noon. al tho church services at
Brule. her ewes had glistened with
tears when she had told John Tay-
lor. blind preacher at the church
that after tomorrow her son would
no longer be with her.
President Coolidge himself. al
though outwardly carrying out his
usual daily routine. betrayed enough
interest in arrangements for his sons
departure to show how deeply he
felt the oncoming separation.
The White House had refused 10

ton would be and what plans for

football men put college first and
fratcrnities second
Concerning the enormous publicity
given To such stars as Red Grange
and Frosty Peters, Zuppke says that
Illinois does not court yards Of space
for it, athletes, but that publicity
Is inevitable and that there IL no
cause for undue alarm on the situa-
ti0n.
ats effects are superficial ~
Zuppke's view, "and will not seri-
ously affect the game. Football
heroes come and 10, year after year,
and while the fanatical worship Of
these temporary idols Is not exactly
beneficial. 10 is not q lasting harm"
No Scandal From Big Gate
Zuppke points out hat the advent
az the big money angle has not pro-
duced a single football scandal. The

5asis by men Of integrity. and as

Zuppke c~haracterizes the two-team
varsity plan as a flabby idea that has
no logical place in football. This
plan had It's inception in the Middle
West and was one 0f the storm cen
tiers of the sport.
Says Zuppkc: Defenders Of the
two-team plan claim that they have
been prompted INV the desire "a give
more men an opportunity 10 play
the game. Therefore. out Of a uni
