HARVARD HOOTERS
 CARRY OFF SIGNS
State Police Lieutenant urs-h=-. May Have Recalled Other
 Victories

Beginning Friday afternoon and continuing we'll toward noon on Sat urday there was stream of auto mobiles passing through Putnam. The occupants were on the way to the Harvard Yale football classic.
 From reports, there was still greater number of cars passed through Danielson, Here the police man on duty had to act as traffic of ficer that pedestrians might cross the street.
 Plans to direct traffic had been made by the state police. They had arrow signs painted. On one side. in blue. was "To the Yale Bowr'. On the other side in crimson, was ''To Harvard Stadium. Until the last car had passed on to New Haven the arrows pointed toward the bowl Then they were reversed to direct homeward bound traffic.
 More Souvenirs
 After darkness fell the jubilant Harvard rooters began returning. They had torn down the goal posts on the Yale field. Other souvenirs were desired. What better than the neatly painted arrow signs. First one and then another was torn down and taken along. When only one remained, and that near the state police barracks in Danielson, state trooper saw a victory celebrator tear ing it from it's fastening.
 It looked like trouble for the iubilant one. Just then Lieutenant urquhart came along. He sensed the situation. Knowing that practically all of the other signs had disappear ed. and It being useless to keep one sign over for use two years hence. he ordered the officer to let the man go.and to let the sign go with him. The lieutenant. perhaps, has him self at one time or another felt the urge to celebrate victory by bring inc home a souvenir after the team he rooted for brought home the bacon. None will question the of iicer's good judgment.

The War Dead of Archangel.
(New York World.)

As the seventyfive bodies of Americans killed in the Archange Murmansk sector are distributed to a dozen States, multitudes of Americans will ask why these men were sent to Russia No one doubts that the American-Allied intervention there was one of the most blundring episodes of the World War Some think that it was theo- retically justifiabe; hold that it was so un- justfable to be almost criminal Few believe that it was anything but futile and tragic in it's results
 It was an episode which can be understood only If we recall the extraordinary results of the Rus sian revolution. When Russia and Germany signed the treaty of Brest-Litovsk in March 1913 the Allies and Americans preparing for the last desperate struggle on the western front The treaty enabled Germany to transfer her eastern forces to France; it made possible there systematic expioltatlon Of much of Russia AS the Allies watched the growing subservience of the Bolshe- Vlsts to Berlin they cast about for means of check mating German designs on Russia's resources Jap anese troops, with Americans and others assisting LOOK control Of Vladivostok An expeditonary force or British. French and Americans was despatched to the Murman coast and Archangel to prevent the Germans from establishing submarine bases on the Wmte Sea, protect the vast Allied stores from falling into German hands and shield the Murmansk Rail- road from Finnish German attack Had this been all, much might have been said for it. But it was practically impossible to prevnt such an expedition rom interfering in Russian domestic affairs: de- manos were made for a junction with the Czecho SloVak forces west of Archangel

TIE WHY'S By Mary Graham Bonner

By M2Ty OTdHdm Bonner I'm going to take you to see some very queer little people this evening" said the Little Black Clock
 John and Peggy never knew what to expect. Certainly the Little Black Clock could take them any where and everywhere.
 The kept trying to learn where they were going.
 You'll see," said the Little Black Clock He seemed to be amused at the very thought of what he was planning to do.
 So John and Peggy knew that it lwould amuse them too. The Little Black Clock always knew!
 He took them back of their own house, and there was an express cart waiting to take them off. The creature pulling the express cart had the funniest kind of shape Instead of being straight up and down he curved around in such an odd fashion.
 But he did not spend any time in talking. As soon as the Little Black Clock and the children were safe in the express cart, he rushed down the garden path, then over unfamiliar ground. Finally, he stop ped at place in the woods where there are many of his kind.
 What do you want to know? What do you want to know?" they all shouted as they saw the chill dren. We have any number of an- swers here. Just see!"
 Here, Why's called the Little Black Clock, tell John and Peggy about yourselves
 They gathered around the chill dren. What funny objects they were! They looked very much like question marks.
 We're called the Why's because we're in the Why business" said one.
 "What?" asked John.
 Well, that's almost the same as why" said another.
 Have you never heard of the Why business?" asked a third.
 Never" said John.
 Never" said Peggy.
 Well talk business then" they said.

LETTING THE BIG ONES GET AWAY.

The Lucy Stone League is an organization whose object is to have women retain their maiden names after marriage The New York World thinks the League is not making progress because 1t lets all the big ones get away. For instance the 1ol- lowing:
 We charge the Lucy Stone League with
 criminal remissness. Next Monday MISS
 Helen Wills will be married to MT. Fred
 erick s. Moody, Jr. And next summer the
 tennis writers will refer to her as Mrs F. S.
 Moody the former Helen Wills The fol-
 lowing summer she will be called Helen
 Wills Moody, and thenafter Mrs Frederick
 S. Moody Jr If the Lucy Stoners would
 only enlist few prominent members like
 Miss Wills, they might get where they
 want to-
 It is true that we have some writers like Fan ne Hurst (whats her husbands name?), and a whole lot of actresses with unknown husbands, who stay with the old names, but the really famous women those connected with sports and most of the others who have gained notoriety among those of all classes, immediately change their names when they are wed Even Peggy-(what is it now? Hopkins Joyce or-?) changes her name every time she marries

SECURING NEW SPRUCE GROWTH.

Competing hardwood growth is the most disturb ing single factor operating to prevent the reestab- lshment of spruce and fir cut-over spruce lands in New England, the Forest Service of the United States Department of Agriculture finds.
 Where beech and sugar maple form an ap- precable portion of the stand, any type of cut ting unless it is followed by special cultural treat ment. results in rapid encroachment of hardwoods on formerly occupied by spruce and fir. Clear cutting of spruce and fir hats additional restock- ing of these species for many years whereas pro- life seeding of large residual hardwoods results in establishment of much additional hardwood growth In instances promiscuous cutting of young growth may be cheifly responsible for the conversion of former mixed spruce and hardwood stands into pure hardwood stands"
 To reestablishment of spruce the Forest Service recommends in logging leaving sub stantial stand of young spruce undamaged. Re- lease cutting of dominant hardwoods should follow

For the Protection of Teachers.
(New York T'ribune.0


 Big Bill the Builder" implacable foe of King George, and Mayor, after fashion, of Chicago, is politically dead at least encouragingly dormant. So it does not much matter that Illinois court has in effect ruled that Big Bills" loud shouts about William McAndrew, Superintendent of Chi cago's Schools, were not so MT. McAndrew with a magnanimous gesture typical of the man, re- fuses to sue the city for the back salary due him or to continue his $250000 libel suit against Mayor Thompson When he began the suit he said he was fighting flor the protection of my profession and Judge Pams decision is victory for teachers everywhere
 The British public was even more amazed than the American to learn that candidate for Mayor of Americas second city gallivanting about shouting that the School Superintendent was "a stool pigeon of King George" "in the pay of Great Britain" We are rather used to bombastic patriot ism incident to the electioneering and to such invasions of the schools by loud-mouthed poli- ticians. The British have a quaint tradition that education and politics should be divorced and they try to keep them Mayor Thompson however pledged the voters of Chicago that he would oust McAndrew, and he did. The trial notorious enough at the time, farce the charges being changed from time to time as one allegation after another exploded All that was left of the attack was some evidence that MT McAndrew, a zealot for good schools, not always tactful
 The Chicago School Board, however dominated by Thompson, decided that MT. McAndrew was insubordinate and incompetent, and formally busted him. The higher court has now ruled that he was not guilty of the offenses charged and he could undoubtedly recover, if he interested in money the $5,000 back salary which Chicago owes him. He has been vindicated that is all he wants We almost wish he had gone further
 We want to show" MT. McAndrews attorneys stated when he filed suit for libel against Mayor Thompson, that an honest who conscien- tousy tries to conduct the school system in accord ance with law cannot be lbeled by demagogc politician who uses the same school system as political capital" They have not quite shown that Iyet-not by long shot. But at least candidates for Mayor are likely to be a little more careful about stirring the school system and the Revolu- tionary War into their political stews

WHAT MAKES THE COURTS COST
 MONEY.

Much than half (58h per cent to be exacD of the criminal cases in the courts of the First Division, during the calendar year of 1929, arose from alleged violations of the Eighteenth Amend ment This bare statement, taken from statistics made public by U. S. Marshal Albert White makes plain the source of court costs-the jury and wit ness fees etc, and the multitudinous necessary ex penses incident to jury terms of courts.
 When considers that in addition to the costs for the extra work that Prohibition piles upon the United States courts there the salaries oi Prohibition agents extra deputies in the offices of the U. S Attorney and U. s. Marshal, jailers guards, etc, it is easy to see that the Eighteenth Amendment is costing lot of money in Alaska whereas before it's adoption the license system produced large amount of revenue for the schools and other necessary governmental services
