school year, If it cannot
achieve a clean sweep.
Should the foot ball eleven
wearing the Light Blue come
through with a surprise victory
over Tech Tuesday In the Central
Stadium and win the title, East
ern adherents will be convinced
that the school will be on the high
road toward a cleanup of the
years laurels.
OF course, basket ball, base ball and
track honors will still have to be taken
by the Lincoln Parkers, but If they
land the foot ball championship, which
would be their first since 1897, the rest
Of the honors could be gained with less
difficulty they feel. Base ball and
track titles have been lifted the last
two years by Eastern and their sup
porters figure that they cannot only
repeat In these sports, but can drag
down the laurels in basket ball, In
which the Capitol Hill school has fire.

Eastern has one big thing In its ia

The student body is imbued with fine
spirit and the teams with q dash and
fight that are real assets.
Not only do Eastern supporters see
big things in an athletic way for the
Light Blue, but no less q person than
Elmer p. Hardell, Tech foot ball and

Eastern is the coming school," said

n YEW YORK, November 1S.-Be-
cause Michigan would not vio-
late the Western Conference
rules and play q post-season
game against Detroit for charity, she
has been lambasted by those who never
saw 9 college and have but a dim idea
of what college Is all about. Other In
situations throughout the country have
Jared similarly.
Irrespective Of schedules, or studies,
or the condition Of players, efforts have
been made to drag on teams into post
season hippodromes, whereas approaches
made with proper consideration for coll
leges involved would have brought re-
suits.
There are certain colleges which do
not meet other colleges upon the foot
ball field for reasons that are deemed
good and proper by their authorities.
There is no reason why conditions Of
unemployment should be invoked to
drag teams into conflict. Many under
lying reasons, including those Of eligi-
bility and athletic policy, keep colleges
from meeting and standards are stand
ards even In the face Of economic con-
ditions that demand public attention.
Other Ways TO Help.
Much better, II the situation war
rants it--as it seems to-wculd be o re-
quest to universities whose Saturday
games are marked by bumper attend
ances to devote part, If not all Of the
receipts to the unemployment funds.
1t might mean delayed payments upon
field houses or play areas or something
of the sort, but this would be sacrifice
which the colleges cheerfully should
meet.
Michigan already has done so. She
arranged to devote all her share Of the
proceeds of the Chicago game to the
cause Of unemployed In Detroit and her
charity e1nTfAa.

many flank and frontal assaults the
Fordham attack can throw back after
five hard games In a row.
Maj. Cavanaugh rates this as the
greatest line he has ever coached and
that type of forward wall is always a
mighty factor in repelling even the

Singer and Canxoneri.

" tumult over the Singer Canzoneri

That Is, provided he has checked out
the memory Of that McLarnin wallop.
Singer is still short of his prime and
while Canzoneri knows what 1t Is all
about the lightweight coronet should re-
main just about where 1t Is.
Among those rendering three rous-
ing cheers when De Kuh refused to

than Jack Sharkey. It might be best
after all to keep some Of our challeng-

The Last Stand.


(Bill Roper, who began his coaching
career at Princeton in 1905, handles his
last game against Yale on Saturday.

And suppose haze had my share

I take MI leave--out the record stands.
The 24-Year Turn.
TT WAS a tough break for Roper OF
i Princeton to find his twenty-fourth
and final year of coaching the worst
he has ever known. But his record
against Yale and Harvard since the war
has been exceptionally good, and that
Is what he always shot for.
Roper's Tiger team began to slip and
fade a year ago and now his men face
the last stand for one of the veteran
coaches of the game against q team
that so far this season has had them
outclassed in every department,
It will take something on the border
line of a miracle for Princeton to rally
and give Yale an even fight, but here
and there, at widely separated intervals,
such things have happened.
Roper started coaching at Princeton
the year the forward pass and the new
game broke in He has been one of
the historic figures of foot ball, the pro-
Queer of more than one great team and
more thar a few leading stars. Only
five years ago his Tiger team ran up
81 points against Harvard and Yale for
one Of the most crushing double VIC
tories U Nassau annals. But IN foot
ball 1926 is a long, long time away from
1880.

James w. Pritchett, Publisher of Wrangell
 Sentinel, Passes On

Wrangell and bought the Sentinel. It was here that he met Mrs. Sarah Eleanor Edmunson, to whom he was married July Is. 1918, in Seattle.
 From the beginning of his resi- dence in Wrangell MT. Pritchett served the community unsparingly in many ways. He was town clerk and secretary of the commercial club for many years, and a member of the executive board of the Wran- gell Red Cross since it's inception during the war.
 He was a member of the Meth odist Episcopal church and took an active interest in all that pertained to 1t. He was a Scottish Rite Ma son with membership in Juneau; a past exalted ruler of the B. P. 0. E., la Moose and a Redman. Perhaps his most fitting epitaph was uncon- sciously offered by a well-known business man who stopped on the street to discuss the new of MT. Pritchett's death.

Big COhOe Run
 in Stikine District
Only One Local Concern Remains in Buying Market on Biggest
 Run in Years

One of the biggest runs of cohoe salmon in recent years struck the Wrangell district this week. Gill netters off the mouth of the river reported average catches of from 75 to so fish on Wednesday, with more than fifty boats engaged in fishing.
 The Wrangell Packing Corpora tion, which has been buying fish up until Wednesday,, announced that they were no longer in the market. The Atlantic & Pacific and the San Juan Fish Company also stopped buying. The Diamond K Packing Company is still taking all the fish that comes, but the big run may swamp them, they said today.
 The Diamond K was the first Wrangell concern to set the price for echoes at 50 cents this season, and it Is estimated that they have been getting about 60 per cent of the Wrangell catch.

JEFFRIES PARTY HERE FOR
 REGULAR SUMMERS OUTING

MT. and Mrs. Richard Jeffries, ac- eompanied by W. P. Jeffries and Steve Drumeff, all of southern Cal ifornia, arrived in Wrangell Mon day night on the Alaska to enjoy a months outing.
 The annual visit of the Jeffries has grown to be one of the looked for events of Wrangell's outing sea- son. They have been making thu trip for the past nine years ana there is always a host of friends waiting at the dock to receive them.
 Richard Jeffries first came to Wrangell in 1898 during the K1on- dike stampede. He pulled 8 sleigh up the Stikine and helped survey both the Dease and Teslin trails for Mackenzie and Mann.
 We had more fun in those days than we do now" he said yesterday while he was casting an eye over the fishing gear in McBride's shop. 'I remember two young English men who started out from Wrangell to Telegraph Creek over the ice with la two-wheel catr drawn by a horse. They travelled with the Missouri Party and were certainly the life of the party. One was a fine singer and the other played a violin"
 The Jeffries party will be the guests of MT. and Mrs. George Bid we'll during their stay in Alaska. They have already enjoyed a days trout fishing at Mill Creek, return ing with two dozen fine cutthroat and a sightseeing voyage aboard the Vigilant is next on the program. A trip out along the west coast of Prince of Wales Island to "Jeff's" old stamping ground near Copper Mountain is to be the feature of this seasons outing.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
 HOLDS WEEKLY MEETING

The Wmngell Chamber of Com merce held it's weekly luncheon Mon day at the Wangell Hotel. Charles Benjamin, vice-president of the chamber, presided in the absence of Dr. o. H. Whaley, president, and R. W. J. Reed acted as secretary in the absence of James Nolan.
 After the business routine short talks were made by the luncheon guests, B. A. Rasmussen, c. W. Hawksworth and H. H. Waller.
 The most important business was disposed of rather strangely. The matter of providing entertainment for the twenty-six young women on the Alameda, due here September 22, came under discussion, and & motion prevailed that the Women's Civic Club be asked to undertake this entertainment.
 Whether the Chamber of Com merce men need condemnation for passing up such an opportunity, or a medal for courage in withstanding the temptation to cut loose and for get the little woman and kiddies at home for a brief time, is a matter of personal opinion.

GENERAL WOOD SAYS
 GREAT ASSET HERE

"All I can say is that the trip to Alaska is wonderful. I shall come again and I shall advise my friends to make the trip. In the tourist trade Alaska has a greater asset than all of the old countries com bined.
 When will the industrial depres- sion end in the states? Every re- porter asks me that question. I am no prophet. I don't know. All I know is that we shall work out of it and back to normal in time. The readjustment that is upon the coun- try was inevitable and the country will be better off when we are back to normal and over our wild spree of soaring prices which fol- lowed the war"
 General R. E. Wood. president of Sears Roebuck & Company, arrived on the plane Wrangell at 130 to- day, having been picked up off a southbound boat. The plane left at 2:30 for Seattle.
 He said while on his trip to the westward he did some fishing but no hunting, and declared that AL aska was a subject which no one could exhaust in a hundred years. He said he almost cancelled the trip after having planned it and now was glad he had come, and intend- ed to make the voyage every year.
 In the same plane were Mrs. J. c. Vim. Bryan Harland and Mrs J. w. Pritchett of Wrangell. Pilot J. c. Wing is at the controls and Frank Hatcher is the mechanic Heavily loaded as it was with hu- man freight and hand baggage, the plane made a considerable run be- fore it took to the air.
