 Tn many instances these metal mine gases are as dangerous as the coal mine damps and in some cases more deadly. The coal miner faces principally methane gas, but some metal mines have the decidedly ex- plosive hydrogen, carbon dioxide, which flows invisibly through them like water; sulphur, the deadly car- bon monoxide and more than half a dozen varieties of fire gases.
 Metal mining people says the report, "are not by any means as familiar with those gases, their oc- currence, detecting and handling as they should be-"

SHORTS FOR MEN
MAKE CITY DEBUT
BoIder Spirits Blossom
Forth in New Style for
HeaIth'S Sake.

Fashion has bowed to the Sun
God Re and the younger set OF
masculinity is accepting with
bushes the ultra fad in salubrious
attire.
Shorts, that to many long trous-
cred males may seem altogether
"too short" are the fad among
smart collegiate dressers since their
introduction at Dartmouth. And
Indianapolis is not to be outdone.
They appeared here today, worn
by a few courageous males not
ayerse to exposing their neither
limbs.
Health Is Motive
Health is the motive behind it all.
Medical experts long have cited the
curative and invIgoratirg force OF
the suns rays. And now that the
men have awakened, authorities de-
clare this quest for unimpoverished
sun baths will mean the universal
adoption of shorts, both Tor sports
and general wear.
The idea originated in England,
where a very dignif1ed and distin-
guished British lord started the
singular style of appearing in abbre-
waited pants.
John Corcoran, who is college rep
resentative of L. Strauss d Co. flrSC
clothiers to put shorts on Their
counters here, reports great inter-
est in the new dress on Indiana
campuses.
With Rolled Rose
For what Is smarter than shorts,
with an open-necked polo shirt and
rolled sport hose2 They will be worn
in white and pastel shades OF green
and tan in flannel, linen and KHAKI.
Staid gentlemen who balk at
tramping the streets with their legs
bare need not be disappointed with
the style. For they can get what
doctors term therapeutic exposure
of the body to the sum- by use OF
certain loosely woven fabrics that
have been introduced recently. A
sports Jacket can be worn as addi-
tional protection if the climate war
rants.
There's another side to the ques-
ton, too, for already women are
taking to shorts for tennis and other
strenuous exercise.

The Calgary Stampede, the spec
tacular entertainment feature of the
Calgary exhibition, to be held at
Calgary, Alberta, Canada, July Z to
IL, will provide the opportunity for
an unusually attractive holiday for
residents Of Montana. Now that the
roads from the Canadian border, 244
miles north to Calgary, are all hard
surfaced and in excellent shape,
very pleasing automobile trip can be
had by visiting Calgary and then go
ing on to Banff and Lake Louise,
Canada's picturesque mountain play
ground, only three hours from Cal
gary.
The highways TO the mountains, in
Guiding Banff, Lake Louise, Field
Golden and the Windermere district
are all IN excellent condition, and 1t
Is doubtful If a more picturesque auto
mobile trip could be planned, as it
combines gorgeous mountain scenery,
the rolling foothills and prairies.
Calgary. an attractive city of 100000
population, has developed one of the
worlds most unique entertainment
features in the Stampede, held an
nually in conjunction with the Cal
gary Exhibition. The attendance has
increased over twenty thousand year
for seven years, 258,000 attending last
year. The attendance one day was
$1,000. The thrills Of the Stampede
competitions, including the furious
chuck wagon race and the wild COW
milking contest, seen only at Calgary,
together with the other spectacular
Stampede features, provide an enter
tainment program each afternoon and
evening unequalled anywhere.
A cordial invitation is extended to all
MOntananS to come up and enjoy a
marvellous holiday with their Canadian
neighbors July to H. Special tourist
passenger fares will be in force from
all points to Banf with stop-over at
Calgary, and rooms may be engaged
through the Alberta Hotel association.
The weeks doings open with the
mammoth Stampede parade five miles
long (Which is witnessed annually by
about 10000 people) on Monday morn
ing. and close on Saturday night with
judging best dressed Indians, pre-
sentation of Stampede prizes, and
western Canadas most stupendous fire

TODAY'S SPORTORIAL
By Kirk Miller

All-America team nowadaws,
the idea is to have a trusted
agent in the various sections
do part Of your looking for
you and pick your team from
their Say-So.
Which brings US around to
the thing we wanted to tell
you today, the same being that
the Hearst newspapers are go
ing to give their readers an
All-America team this fall
which should be the beau-ideal
of the scrupulous football minds
of the country. It is to be
a team picked along the mod
ern lines mentioned above. Ex-
pert football eyes in every sec
ton of the country-North,
East, South, West and points
in between-will pool VIII a t
they have seen, the net results
of which are to be reflected in
the columns of very one Of the
couple of dozen Hearst publica-
tions throughout the season.
As plans now loom, this
team will be given to the pub
lie right at the very end of
the regular football season, De
cember 8. It is doubtful if
it will be ready before then,
although q consensus may be
available by November 80.
Not only the Hearst football
writer's in every nook and cor
ner of the country, but the col
lege coaches whom these writ.
ers see and talk with every day
are to be included in the con-
SenSuS.
Out Of such a complete GOV.
erage of college football activity
is sure to come a team over
which there can be no dispute.
It should be the greatest
team picked this year because
Of this very completeness OF
coverage of which we speak.
The people who are football,
therefore, will pick this team
people outside of the players, OF
course. The real master minds,
those who have watched every
development of the collegiate
football year from coaching
lines and press box will be the
voice which win be speaking
as one when this all-embracing
team is announced.
Such a poll on football excel
lence and achievement will pro-
duce the cream Of football
thought because the various bal
lots will be so far-flung and
represent so MANY different
viewpoints that only the acme
Of greatness can crystalize from
such composite thought.

commence to see extended dis
cussion Of allAmerica teams.
It's going to be a tedious
elimination process this year
for any individual to set down
the names of all the good play
ers in the country and then
eliminate all except eleven OF
them.
The quickest way to arrive
at the 1880 AIl-America might
be to just take the Notre Dame
first team in its entirety and
have the task over with, but
if that were done there would
be a great deal Of discrimina-
ton against the second, third,
and fourth Notre Dame teams
which are certainly due some
consideration.
Opinion appears to be unan-
imous that Notre Dame has
the best football club this year
she has ever had. And, Of
course, that means Notre Dame
has the best team that ever
existed, for one statement is
tatamount to the other when
