RURAL TOWNS MUST
ADJUST TO TIMES
Efforts Required to Meet De-
mands of Changed C0ndi-
tiOns i'm Small CenterS
Must Be Alive, Active ;. 49,.
w. C. COffey, Farm School
Dean, Says that Activity
is Recipe for Survival

Agriculture is the hinterland up
on which the small towns depend
for their existence and a goodly
number of them should be able to
survive and prosper, providing
they realize this fact and are de-
termined to give the kind and quail
ity of service country people de-
mand and deserve, declared w. G.
Coffey, dean of agriculture of the
University of Minnesota, in a re-
cent address at the Small Town
short course sponsored by the uni
versity.
"Greater use of improved ma
chinery has increased the output
per farm worker from 20 to 40 per
cent since the World war;" said
Dean Coffey, which means that
fewer people are required to farm
given area and many agricultur-
al sections therefore have fewer
people to patroniZe towns now than
they had a decade ago. This fact
that practically everyone operates
over wider areas than formerly,
makes it unreasonable to expect
that each and every small town
can live and thrive any more than
each and every little country school
and church can survive and pros
per.
"The result of these changed con-
ditions has been to set up intense
competition between towns and the
outcome will largely be determined
by what constructive efforts the
businessmen in these various CEN
ters make to provide satisfactory
facilities to the farmers for buying,
selling, and financing, and to afford
the right of educational, social, re-
creational, and religious advantages
and attractions.
'"The market center which is most
alert in disposing of the farmers
produce with dispatch and at the
best prices attracts his attention
and usually secures his patronage
This is a matter the small town
should keep in mind, because the
farmer is likely to spend his money
near the place he gets it, particu-
larly if the goods he wants are
available there.
"Since the modern farmer must
frequently borrow money for his
farm operations, wisdom displayed
by banks located in small towns

British Syndicate Willing to

u YEW YORK, October 30.-With
the heavyweight situation ct
standstill apparently, so far as
l. this country is concerned, Eng
lish sportsmen have stepped
forward with a solution to the problem
of finding a successor to Gene Tunney,
retired.
Wilfred Ward and London syndi-
generally considered the outstanding
American heavyweight, $3.50, 900 to meet
Phil Scott, the English fireman, and
Ward. in addition, offered to bet $25,-
600 on the side, that his protege, Scott,
could whip the garrulous COB from Bos-
ton.
Backing up this offer, the British
Board of Boxing Control, headed Wy
Lord Lonsdale, has asked the New York
State Athletic Commission to recognize
the match as being for the worlds
heavyweight championship. Although
the New York State solons declined to
take any definite stand until the match
Is arranged, it was understood that they
we're favorably disposed toward the re-
quest.
Although Scott was knocked out by
Knute Hansen in his first American ap-
oearance, Scott later knocked out Monte
Mum and defeated, among others,
Pierre Charles of Belgium Ted Sand
wilma. the German American; Roberti
Roberto of Italy, and Victoria Campolo
of the Argentine. He Is good boxer
and a fair hitter.

ably will be held in London early next

PILOT KEY PLAYER
OF GR|D|RON TEAM
West Coast Coach Regards
Center as Ranking Next
to Signal Caller.
BY HOWARD JONES,
Foot Ball Coach, University Of Southern
California.

NdIlLOLIlds
I'm this article it is not my intention
to minimize the Importance of any
position on foot ball team, but in
4 my opinion the quarterback's, or
signal-caller's, position can be
termed the most important, because
from this post the entire strategy OF
attack is evolved.
Generalship or choice of plays can
be called the most vital factor in foot
ball. For many years the quarterback
position was filled not by men OF dig
stature, but by players of superior men
tai ability. About the only physical
REQUISITES were capability in feeding the
ball to other backs and competency IN
the receiving and running back OF
punts.
With the institution of the direct
pass from center, most coaches have
added to the duties Of quarterback
either interference or kicking, which
requires forward passing and ball
carrying ability. For many years I
have used my quarterback as a triple
threat.
Center Next in Rank.
In my estimation the position Of next
Importance is center, or snapper-back.
Statistics show that many games have
been lost solely because OF one bad pass
from the center. In the direct pass
from center to any back the whole
success of a play hinges upon the &C
curacy of the pass.
The unbalanced line IN foot ball was
primarily to force the assignment OF
defensive players so they could not in
terfere with center's passing.
The center also generally plays an
important part in forward-pass defense,
because against my systems of attack
an adequate defense cannot be had
without his assistant. For this purpose
he is many times stationed back OF the
line.
Wants No Argument.
In determining positions of next i'm
portance one runs into some difficulty,
and I am quite willing to save argu-
ment and describe the remaining posi-
tons as of equal importance.
glory is heaped upon the ball carrier.
This is only natural, because the spec
tator follows the progress of the ball.
He fails in most cases 10 see the inter-
ference of backs. 1t is more or less
difficult for him to see the individual
functioning of the linemen, but he must
appreciate that even the best of ball
carriers could not display their wares
were it not for the clearing of the way.
The pity is that there are too many
"unsung heroes" in foot ball, and be-
lieve I could name manyt whose pic
lures should be hung IN the hall OF
fame.

the only one he won, he bored in

Hudkins' rally was over with the

perative if the infection in his right leg
is to be arrested, Coach Rockne an
nounced he would not accompany his
team when it plays Georgia Tech at

at Chicago, November 9.
1T have been advised complete rest
is necessary and I think now is the
best time to take it." Rockne said. II
am not Understanding Georgia Tech
when I say we ought to come through
the contest undefeated. Then comes
Drake. We should get by that game,
too.
After that we start series of games
as hard as any Notre Dame team has
ever tackled. Southern California,
Northwestern and the Army are rugged
foes and it will require everything we
have to turn them back. That's why
want to be In shape"
Rockne insists there is no possibility
of his loss to the team for the rest of
the season, although his physician may
order it unless immediate Improvement
is noted fearing the infection may af-
