How does Yale's undefeated crew rank with Cornell? It's a question that cannot be answered conclusive ly so far as their respective abili- ties at the championship four mile distance is concerned. The Ellis beat Cornell by three lengths in sprint race at Princeton early in the sea- son, but the Ithacans were an un- settled combination then, making their first start, whereas the Blue already had experienced compe- tition.
 Yale whipped Harvard by five and a half lengths in the second fastest time ever recorded on the Thames for their four mile race. Cornell on the turbulent Hudson, rowed down eight rivals by margins ranging from three to twenty lengths in the four mile varsity bat tie. The Big Red eight beat by ten lengths the Columbia crew that gave Yale a close early season brush.
 There ought to be enough honor for both the Red and the Blue in these performances.

PITT PLAYERS ARE DENIED
 SUMMER WORK ON BENCHES

PITTSBURGH, July 19. No member of Jock Sutherland's Uni versity of Pittsburgh football squad is giving the girls treat on the benches this summer.
 Jock frowns on life saving as a summer occupation for footba all men. It is his idea that swimming tends to an over development of muscles a football man uses most often.
 Pitts captain, Eddie Baker, is working as a miner at Nanticoke. Bill Walinchus, open field running star, is a miner at Mahanoy City
 Mike Milligan is a policeman in a Pittsburgh suburb.
 Every man is working with the exception of Ralph Daugherty who has just left the hospital after an operation for appendicitis.

tween the Moose and American Le- zion was plotted out by rain. It probably will be set at the foot of the schedule and played only if necessary to determine the second half championship.
 The Moose have big advantage in the current series, with six wins and only one loss as compared to three wins and five losses for the Elks. The latter, it is true, have fighting chance to overtake the leaders but that is all. The loss of a single game with the Moose win ming one more would put them en- tirely out of the running.

= Ten minutes Of such furious playing as
hadn't been seen on an Eastern gridiron for
years; 10 minutes in which Steve's team, using
Grayson's plays. scored two touchdowns; 10
minutes in which, for the first time that day,
the team played as Grayson had taught 1t to
play, and snatched the most glorious Of VIC
tories from the most needless and stupid Of
defeats.
Then came the race to the fell house Under
the stand Steve caught Grayson; his arm
went about the coach's shoulders
I'm sorryl" he said. But I had to-can't

Forget it! Resign-and see what they tell
you to do with your resignation"
Steve told Wentworth, '99, half an hour
later, what he'd told Grayson, and Wentworth
nodded.
Right" he said. Hell be all right now
he's had his lesson-thanks to having a
captain who didn't need onel Steve-I want
to talk to you. want you with me-"
Steves mouth fell into the obstinate lines
that Anne Wentworth knew so well.
I'm sorry, sir" he said "But-I-Ive got
other plans I'm an engineer, you know. I
don't want to sell bonds"
Bonds? I've got plenty of men to sell
bonds! I need men like YOU to put some

thing behind the bonds. It's because you're
an engineer want you-and because you've
got the sort Of brains you showed out there
today-and the CUTS to smash a precedent
when you have to-"
Steve looked at him. But still he shook his
head.
II understand, sir" he said I'd like to
go with you. But-Tve agreed to 60 to South
America"
THAT might be arranged" said Wentworth.
But Steve shook his head again. I've given
my word, SIR" he said.
"All right" Wentworth, 90, grinned. eff
anything happens to change your mind, let
me know. Or-you might tell Anne, If you
happen to see her, and she can tell me-"
He happened to see Anne that evening ut
dinner. Wentworth '99. who was giving the,
dinner, had known, probably, that he would
just as he had known one or two other things.
What size gloves do you wear, Anne?"
Steve asked her. That was after dinner, and
they happened to be alone.
WHY"
I'VE made q bet, didn't we?" said Steve.
"And Hutchinson says he doesn't want me
in South America, after ALL"
"Of course he doesn't, stupid" said Anne
do you suppose he's going to annoy father
by hiring man father wants? And-do you
think I ever bet, except on a sure thing?
I'm a woman, my dear!"
Steve looked at her. He thought things
over. Then he grinned. And then-he kissed
the only daughter Of Wentworth, '99.

But the tranSoceanic air season Of 1927 in
which Lindbergh's flight TO Paris was the first
of several glorious achievements produced 10
disasters. OF which all but one were shrouded
with mystery. The list follows:
May 5-Capt. ST. Roman and Comdr Mount
ayres disappeared while attempting to fly from
Senegal, Africa. to Pernambuco. Brazil.
May S-Capts. Charles NungeSser and
Francois Coli, in the white Bird, started from
Paris for New York. No definite trace of them
was found after they passed over England.
August 16-Miss Mildred Doran, j. A. Pedlar
and ". R. Knope started in the Miss Doran as
competitors in the Dole race from Oakland to
Honolulu. They were apparently lost at sea.
August 1e-J. w. Frost and Gordon Scott,
flying the Golden Eagle in the Dole race, pre-
sumabIy lost at sea.
August 19-w r. Erwin and Alvin Eichwaldt
left Oakland in the Dallas Spirit to search for
the missing Dole planes. After reporting by
radio for hours, communications abruptly
ceased.
August 2s-Paul r. Redeem left Brunswick,
Ga, on an attempted nonstop flight to Rio de
Janeiro. He was last sighted In the West
Indies
August 31-Princess Lowenstein- Wertheim
Col. +. r: Minchin and Capt Leslie Hamilton
left England in the st. Raphael for q flight to
Canada. They were last sighted at Galway,
Ireland. ~

from Old Orchard, Me, for Rome. Several
steamships received s o wireless calls from
the plane and on September IL pieces Of wreck
age were picked up in midocean.
September Capt Terry Tully and Lieut..
James Metcah in the Sir John CARING, lift
Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, for London. They
were never heard from again.
December 23-Mrs. Frances w. Grayson,
Brice Goldsborough. Oskar Omdal and Fred
Koehler left in the Dawn for Harbor Grace on
q proposed flight to Denmark On December
~ distress calls from the plane were reported
by the wireless operator at Hearts Content,
Newfoundland, but no trace Of the flyers was
found.
Although the fate of these aviators is undc-
termined, It has been presumed that they
crashed into the ocean and were drowned But
In at least three instances considerable doubt
has been entertained regarding that explana-
ton y.
These are air mysteries which the world
hardly expects to solve, but the finding Of the
bodies Of Andree and his companions was also
unexpected, and 1t suggests that solution for
other aviation puzzles may eventually be found.

should have forced itself inextricably into tt,e
traditions OF the town and the times. Had
this visit been postponed a few months IT
would have been too late. Marie Layeau Is
dead; Malvina Latour Is queen"
~ HE queen Is dead-long live the queen!''
Is q cry also of voodooism. But just how
long she lives depends upon herself. Tech
nically. she is queen for life, but one can die
even while one lives and it seems as though
Malvina Latour's name is the last famous one.
Certainly Marie Laveau comes as rarely O. q
Corday or Cleopatra. But though the queen
may not be known. still there are voodoo
meetings.
It is almost impossible for an outsider to
reach such a meeting, for secrecy was always
thrown about the gatherings and is now q
hundredfold greater than ever. Ask any Negro
you meet about voodooism and the reply viii
be shake Of the head and an emphatic de-

the ceremony. But win the confidence Of one

to witness a modern voodoo conclave You
may be led to one of the DID, untenanted
houses that hang over the banquettes of the
old quarter, and after you have successfully
passed the barriers and safeguards and have
been admitted to the inner circle you will hear
the chanting, the humming the beating of the
drum and you will see the writhing bodies, the .
imploring faces, the beseeching hands that
have always belonged to the worshipers Of
Voodoo. True, there may be modern words to
the songs there may be English on some
tongues instead of the Creole patois, but the
prayers the contortions, the coiled snake the
drawing of blood to appease the god, the zoom-
zoom-zoom of the drum-these will speak Of
voodooism as it has been for two centuries in
New Orleans.
The police ate its enemies but voodooisrn
still exists. Charms are still given to those .
who trust the God-feathers from chickens
