SCORING RECORDS ARE ALL BROKEN
Marks for the Past Nine Years
 Shattered by EIeVens

New York, Dec. 20 P-In a sea- son marked by brilliant offensive play, the college football teams of the nation broke all scoring records for the last nine years during the campaign now drawing to a close.
 Reaping a number of touchdowns, the country's average team. as de- tcrmincd by the Associate Press from the records of lj2 representa- tive elcvens. scored an average of 139 points in the course Of the sea- son, the previous high mark was 1889, set last year.
 Prior to the 1929 season, the na- tional football rules committee, in outlawing the run-back of a tumble recovered by the defensive side ex- pressed the opinion the change would encourage freer handling of the ball and produce more varied and effective offensive tactics.
 With 1929 and 1880 leading all the other seasons for which records have been kept. the figures indicate the tumble rule had the desired cf- feet
 The average team participated in S:GS games and scored 1$9 points 10 it's opponents g. The average num- Der Of points per game was 16, the highest recorded since 1922.
 Colgate and Southern California rolled up impressive totals Of 3S3 and 392 points respectively while Notre Dame registered 2G5 despite its tough schedule and the fact that Coach Rockno used his regulars Sparingly in several games. At the other extreme were colleges lk" Ho- bart. whose opponents Chalkcd up more than 800 points

COFFEE FIRST
USED AS FOOD
Modern Methods Produce
Stimulating Drink.

In Ethiopia, about 300 A. D., coffee
was looked upon as a food. The
whole ripe berries were crushed and
nodded into food balls, held in shape
with fat. Later, the dried berries
we're so treated. Thus the primitive
stone mortar and pestle were the
original coffee grinder.
The dried hulls and green beans
first were roasted, sometime between
1920 and 1900 A. D., in crude burned
clay dishes or in stone vessels, over
open fires. These were the original
coffee roasting utensils.
1t was at about this time that
coffee first was used as a beverage.
And even at that early date it was
realized that to prepare coffee at it's
best it must be used as soon after
it was roasted as possible.
Methods used today in roasting
coffee are quite contrast to the
primitive methods. Science and in
ventive genius have given us a real
stimulating beverage, one that COM
bineS the finest flavor with all the
nouriShment contained in the coffee
bean.
Coffee lovers in Indianapolis are
fortunate in that they may obtain
Hoosier Club coffee, blended and
roasted fresh daily and distributed
to independent grocers in seal
packed cans at regular intervals.
A delicious cup of Hoosier Club
coffee is certain method of start
ing the day off right.
