 The sons of the old man don't always run true to form. Quite often father is a great athlete and little Chester turns out to be wild about ping pong.
 But now and then the name of some nero of the good old days flashes across grdiron or diamond m the person of "Junior.' This year there have been outstanding cX- amples.
 Tru:lton Hare, the oll Penn guard, ranks among inc greatest lincmen Of all time. He was contemporary at Penn with George Woodruff. who thought out that guards back" for nation. TruXton Hare. Jr., has fol lowed in his fathers footsteps in one respeCt-he is also a guard, but he has chosen Yale instead of Pcnnsy,- Nania.
 Young stagG Promising
 Alonzo Stagg was one of the greatest ends in history, having d | place on Walter Camps first All- America team when he played at l Yale. Now 5taSg, in his 36th year as football coach. is developing his son, Paul, as a quarterback. If you judge by the game young Stagg played against Princeton. there is every chance that his fathers dream l will be realized. He indicated that he knew at least. what it is all about He is rangy, with lots of strength and hard tackler.
 At Michigan is young Willie Hes | ton, carrying on his famous dad s old bacllteld job. The younger Hes l ton showed flashes of his fathers | fire in the Michigan Ohio game. but i he hasn't been used much since. Ht i is q sophomore. however, and learns rapidly according 10 Michigan [ coaches.
 Bunker fer the Army
 At West Point is Paul Bunker Like Heston, young Bunker has ; tough spot to fill, for the elder Bunk CT, Paul, ST, was an All-Americi tackle in 1901 and an All-Americ; back in 1902. Young Paul is play ing center, and is regarded as hold ing forth great promise.
 Down at Princeton is Tangdol L"a, son Of the Langdon Lea wh, was tackle and captain of one 0 the old Tiger teams. Al Harvard i Vie Harding, WnoSr father also wa an end. Bernie Tra1ord. at liar ward. is a son of tine Trdfford Wh, kicked five field goals against Cor nell in 1920.
 Switch the Game
 Sometimes the younger generation hobs Lp in different sports iron those their fathers followed. T Cobb's son took 10 the tennis courts Beals Wright, son of the famous ol hall player, George, turned out [ be a tennis champion. Foster San ford was a great center at Yale, bu hls son became a varsity pitcher fo Penn, thus balancing the Yale-Pcn score on TruXton Hare.
 Joe Stevens at Yale was one ( the finest outfcldcr5 who ever playc TOT Yale. His son. Harry, is guard on the scrub team at Ne Haven.
 Sons of famous fathers face hand caps when they try to fill the "ol mans" shoes. The names that pro Ceded them prove pretty severe test for their mcttlc. When they do com through, their deeds arc the moI : remarkable.

If you have been listening
very attentively, you may have
heard q whisper or two about
this fight tonight in Detroit
between Joe Dundee and Jackie
Fields, for the welterweight title.
But the talk has been quite
sub-rosa indeed. The fans do
not seem to get excited over
title fights outside of the heavy
weight class even when the
principals are well-thought-of,
but in case of the present holder
of the welter crown who has
been a miserable champion in
deed, the excitement is prac-
tically nil.
The lighting name of the
fighting Dundees of Baltimore
has not been enhanced to any
great extent since Joe became
the king of the welters. We
have ever had sneaking sus-
picion the fault is not entirely
Joe's. We have thought for
two years that Dundeess unin-
pressive record since he took
the title was more to be laid
at the door Of his management.
Barred in this State, in bad
in that one and walking out of
an engagement in another be-
cause some OF the money
could not 6e laid on the line be-
FIRE the fight, does not make
hit with the fans. Engaging in
fight after fight where the
championship was not at stake
is also another surs way TO

No capable manager should
permit such goings-on when he
has a champion on his hands.
Since winning the title Dun-
dee has participated in 19 en-
gagements, none Of them title
affairs. He has won five by
the knockout route, one by q
technical knockout, seven by de-
cisions, lost one by a knockout
and three by decisions.
Two engagements were de-
clared no contests because of the
unsatisfactory showing by the
principals, and in one--the
scheduled Ace Hudkins engage
ment in Los Angeles-Dundee
failed to appear when the
promised guarantee was not
forthcoming.
Contrasted with T mmy
Loughran, Dundee has been q
poor champion indeed. Each
having dominated his class for
approximately the same time,
two years, Tommy has defended
his crown seven times to Dun
dee's failure to fedend it at all.
But speaking Of welterweight
champions, we have not had a

Notes from Union High School

Mr.. Carstens has an interesting
and interested class. His method,
which deserves great commenda-
ton, consists of taking each group
OF instruments separately three
periods week and then having
a united practice after each sepa-
rate group has been thoroughly
prepared for the ensemble. We
are fortunate in having secured
Mr.. Carstens services for this most
important phase Of school life.
After careful study, Supt. Rob
ertson has discovered that the
largest number of excuses are moi
valid. Through the combined ef-
forts of parents and pupils the per.
centage of unexcused absences
will be reduced. The one valid
excuse acceptable in King County
is illness on the part of the alb
sentee.
The Senior and Junior Higl
schools will contest each other
for the highest percentage of at
tendance for February and Marcl
the contest to be run according
to county regulations, We hops
that the standard of attendance
will be raised by this means. Al
the end of this time suitable re
ward will be granted TO the win
ners. The parents cooperation j,
requested in an effort to obtain {
better attendance which will re
suit in better High school il
