Many of the scouts never see their own team perform. They are like the advance men of a circus, always one or two jumps ahead of their own forces.

The agitation of a few years ago to abolish football scouting, led by T. A. D. Jones of Yale, seems to have all but expired The Ellis alone among the major colleges have adhered generally to the non scouting policy with such of their opponents as will agree to it, but Harvard and West Point, after ex- perimenting, have not been among them. The Crimson opposed the ijca from the outset, yielding only rnler pressure. The Army has de- ciScd that scouting is a legitimate lli'itcry maneuver, essential to the march against enemy gridiron strongholds.
 Scouting is on high-powered systematic basis in the Middle West especially the Big Ten. Special facilities are afforded the visiting scouts. Far from being obliged to operate with any secrecy, they are welcomed, dined and entertained by many of the big schools, who set aside choice seats for these eagle eyed observers. No guarantees, how ever, go with the information they obtain.

 Last year the group, members of the County Farm Bureau, startl- ed the community by establishing themselves in a sylvan retreat where the hand of man was not allowed to set foot, so to speak.
 But this year thumbs were turn ed down. Too much work to estab- fish the camp, not enough differ .ence from farm life, were reason3 assigned
 The change came as a complets surprise to everyone in the district. husbands included. When they re- turned from the camp last summec after a 4-day female holiday, the women declared it was great and that they'd repeat it this year.

TANKS SERVICE BEST
 SAYS BRITISH STAR

LONDON, Dec. 3.-Recording his impressions of his recent American tour, H. w Austin, in the Evening News eulogises American tennis players for their service.
 The outstanding feature of Am erican's play however" he says, lis that they can serve, not only the first ten, but everyone. Why this should be and why the service in England should generally be the weakest, stroke, I do not under stand"
 Austin also contrasts the Ameri- can tournaments with those of Eng land, very much in favor of the former. He says in hundreds of tournaments round England leading players scatter themselves in which they usually meet no real opposi- ton until the final round. and at very few of the tournaments before Wimbledon, do all the best players compete.

The arguments in favor of scout ing, as they are summed up in the Carnegie Foundations report, are that it gives the better team a bet ter opportunity to win, relieves the strain upon the coach, removes sus- picion and distrust which develop in, non-scouting agreements which are difficult to enforce.
 Opponents of scouting, on the other hand, point to it's cost, run- ming as high as $500 for each scout CT S3,500 for a season; it's savor of over-emphasis on winning and, last ly, the element of professionalism in high-powered scouting methods.
 Vale athletic officials, coaches and athletes says the Carnegie re- port, appear to be unanimous in their conviction that the absence of scouting decreases the impor- tance of victory at football and au- guments the attractiveness of the game as diversion" Among Canadian universities, where the English influence may be predomi- nant, scouting is considered un- sportsmanlike and the athletic au- thorities of Dominion institutions have agreed not to make use of it.

 All Night Battle

Warsaw, Nov. L4> - Socialist demonstrations were held in War saw and several provincial cities last night in protest at 30 day ad journment of the Sejm.

 The socialists today proclaimed a strike in all coal districts in Poland. This, however, was only an economic strike, decided upon some days ago, and had no bearing on recent po- ltical events.

 Convinced System Prolonged Life

Paris, Nov. 6 UP) - Georges Clemenceau, the aged Tiger" of France, whose vigor at SS has brought him through his recent crit ical heart attack, is firmly convinc- cd that gymnastics has been of great value in keeping him strong.
 The recent episode in which Clem- enceau, just convalescing from a heart attack which almost killed him, secretly indulged in calisthen- ics and was caught at 1t by his doc tors, brought to light interesting facts concerning the former prem iers physical habits. The doctors banished his instructor and have for bidden the patient to indulge further in strenuous calisthenics.
 Convinced of Value
 Clemenceau, however, is firmly convinced of their value, and volun- tarily gave his teacher a signed tes- timonial which said:
 Without gymnastics for the last 28 years I wouldn't be here"
 When he started exercising, Clem- enceau had dilation of the stomach. He approached his teacher, Edouard

 This statement gives conditional acceptance and was a compromise between the three chief political schools of thought in India, the liberal, congress and independent sections.

New Color Process
Used In French Film

Perfection of color photography
as applied to motion pictures, is

new invention, known as the
French stencil process, which can

present at the Liberty Theatre
Saturday, April 18th.
Surely no finer opportunity for
gorgeous color effects could be
given a director than the exciting
episodes of the romantic life of
Giacomo Casanova, most famous
adventurer and greatest lover of
the eighteenth century. The peri
cd was colorful and picturesque
one to begin with, and Casanova
staged his career among scenes
the most brilliant and colorful of
the age.
The color scenes include the
royal court of Russia and it's
magnificent functions, the Vene-
tian carnival, filmed at night,
featuring its flaming fireworks
display, and others.
