GONZAGA CUTS
WIDE SWATH

Four years ago when Orrel
Mitchell went over to GonZaga
Prep School to coach the football
team, he ran into a situation that
was far from impressive.
In plain words, there wasn't
much Of a football team because
of a certain lack of material in
the collection of players at hand.
Today, after four years Of work.
Mitchell has one of the best
elevens on the field that has ever
represented GonZaga, or since the
days of Tom Brew, Joe F'1neran,
the Farrells and others.
Central is Beaten
The team has cut wide swath
in scholastic grid circles this year.
Only one game has been lost by
the Eye Streeters this season and
that to an out-of-town foe-easily
the strongest in this section
Swavely Prep.
Yesterday Mitchell's tea m
added one more victory to its
long list for the year. Also an
other high school victim which
has. seen Western, Business ana
Eastern fall under the powerful
play of the purple-clad warriors.
Gonzaga did not play as power
full game yesterday as IN
previous contests this year. But
the teams play was good enough
to defeat Central by the decisive
score of 10 to O.
Central put up a fine defensive
game in defeat. 1t was largely
through the efforts of Hank Glib
bons that the Mt. Pleasanters
kept the score as low IS it was.
Take 10 Lead
Gonzaga took a TO lead in
the first quarter in one of its
characteristic attacks which saw
the Purple lads drive right down
the field from the kickoff for a
touchdown. Garlic Mills led ChlS
attack, which was for IS yards,
and it was his final plunge which
counted a marker from the II
yard line.
A short pass from Joe Mills to
Keegin counted the Purple'S next
touchdown in the fourth quarter
The latter player counted" from
the 12-yard line.
A 55-yard run by Keegin scored
the final marker of the day
Keegin, this time, intercepted an
attempted pass by Buscher. Of
Central, eluding all Mt. Pleasant
tacklers and running down the
sidelines for a sensational score
Central's only threat was in the
third quarter when they got al
far as Gonzaga's 22-yard stripe
The punch was lacking for a
touchdown, however.

leg in the back swing, which is
o. K, and then failing to step
forward through the middle
body, in returning the club.
When the weight is shifted in
the back swing the path of the
clubhead, in the forward swing,
is actually a few inches in ad-
vance of the path followed in
taking the club back. It couldn't
be otherwise, since you move
back, in back swinging, from
your address position, and must
return to your address position
for correct and effective strok-
ing of the ball. Now if you stay
too far back, in the position
found after the weight shift,
your clubhead takes the ball on
its upswing after passing the
bottom arc. This skies the ball,
which, of course, robs the flight
of desirable distance.

NOTRE DAME, Ind, Nov. 21-
All they're asking for now is a
bouncing fast track for the annual
scramble here this afternoon be-
tween Notre Danes Irish and the
Trojans of Southern California.
In fact, it seems quite agreed
that unless the under footing is
solid the $1,000 who will attend
probably will see one Of the years
great games become just another
sketch of the boys chasing a bar
Of soap around ia a bath tub.
The prediction Of northern Indi-
ana's weather geezer is that it
may rain this morning and then
turn to snow by afternoon.
Yet, there was a prospect that
the said weather prophet might
be bit wet in his forecast. AS
wet, probably as the weather was
III these parts all yesterday.
A stiff cold wind was blowing
up out Of the Northwest early this
morning and If this is a sign Of
anything it might mean clear, cold
weather.

Practically every man on the
Trojan squad is in perfect condi.

Coach Chunky Anderson OF
Notre Dame announced three of

They are Melinkovich and Koken

However, Anderson said he would

Neither coach has come to the

Harvard Prof. Sees Capitalism
Dying; Calls Fascism to Rescue

Not only will the Five Year Plan
in the Soviet Union succeed, but the
capitalists must take for granted that
a ten and fifteen year plan will be
successful, says Wallace Brett Don
ham, professor of business economies
in the graduate school of business
administration of Harvard Univer-
Sity, in a special and sensational
article in the New York Times, Sun
day, March 18th. Professor Donham
fears capitalism is rapidly dying and
something must be done to save it,
He sees the rise of socialism in the
Soviet Union raising the standard of
living of the workers, planning eco
nomy and outstripping the capitalist
countries. He insists that American
capitalism must take the leadership
to save world capitahsm-if neces-
sary by war against the workers
republic.
Professor Donham starts out by
admitting the handwriting on the
wall spells the end of capitalism.
THE recurrence of serious business
depressions and unemployment emer-
gencies, such as we face today, con-
stitutes challenge to capitalism. IN
less greater stability is achieved, it
is doubtful whether capitalistic civ
ilization can long endure" In short,
capitalism is dying and the most
drastic measures must be taken by
the capitalists to save their decaying
civilization. What must they do? War
against the Soviet Union is one of
the measures; fascism at home, an
attack against the workers is an
other.
Donham admits that "the Soviet
government has a sufficiently good
chance to maintain itself to bring its
five, ten and fifteen year plans to
some degree of actual success. We
cannot with reasonable safety assume
it will fail, but must, as safer bust
ness policy, assume its success for
this limited period" But while he

Yokinen's crime in the eyes of the
