BOOMING EX-CROWN PRINCE FOR
 PRESIDENT.

European correspondents writing to New York newspapers declare that there is strong movement in the Monarchist party in Germany to nomi- nate ex-Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm for the Presidency to compete with President Hinden- burgh who will probably again be a candidate for President next year And. strange it may seem, Monarchists counting Adolf Hitler's National Socialist party for cooperation
 John Elliott, Berlin correspondent of the New York Herald Tribune, says the Hitler following would prefer the fascist system to monarchy but would prefer the latter to a continuation of the parliamentary plan of government. One faction of the National Socialists is admittedly favorng the restoration of monarchy Elliott says Helmuth Brueckner Hitler leader in Silesa, recently in the presence of the ex-Crown Prince and a conference of nobes and junkers declared that the National Socialists consciously striving for a monarchy that would stand above Parliament and parties. The impression seems to be general that should the ex-Crown Prince be elected President he would attempt to follow the example of Louis Napoleon in France who promoted himself from the Presidency to Emperor.
 The National Socialists have already registered their opposition to the reelection of linden burgs However, it is said they are not all confident that he be defeated with all liance with the Monarchists
 That the Monarchists are dissatisfied with the Hindenburg Presidency is admitted. On this point the Herald Tribune correspondent says
 The Monarchists believe that in the
 former Crown Prince they would not suffer
 repetition of the disappointment they
 experienced when they put up Hindenburg
 for President in 1925. "Our Hndenburg" as
 they called him, elected by a majority of
 Nationalists in the expectation that he would
 act sort of Admiral Horthy, keeping the
 seat of the chief executive until
 Hohenzollern ready to occupy it again
 Instead, Hindenburg has kept his oath
 of office and has done more than anybody
 else to stabilize the Republican regime. The
 Nationalists consider however with reason
 that they would have better luck with the
 ex-Crown Prince himself a Hohenzolern
 He represents today the chief hope of the
 Monarchists who recognize that the restora-
 ton of the Master of Doorn" is not practi-
 cal politics
 Just Louis Napoleon, after being elect
 ed President of France, eventually mounted
 to the imperial throne held before him by
 his llustrious uncle, the German Mon
 archiStS confident that the election of
 the former exCrown Prince to the pres-
 dency of the Reich would be but an opening
 wedge for his assumption of regal dignity.
 It is generally admitted that the success of these plans would depend largely upon whether or not President Hindenburg would care to be candidate against his former Prince. Monarch ists hope that he would refuse to run against Hohenzollern They believe that if he should elected His hold on the people is admittedly stronger than that of any other citizen of the Republic.

After apparently defeated, San

required the Hungarian 81
minutes to score his triumph.
Roebuck was master of his
smaller foe for most of the way.
Just before the end, it seemed
that the Indian had put Szabo
on the canvas for good when the
Hungarian lay motionleSs from a
body slam. However, SZabo re-
gained his feet before Roebuck
could pounce on him.

William H. HarrelSon took his
old position at quarterback.
There was a tense moment.

little man who was once known
as the diminutive field general
of the Stanford team.
William C. Hazard, center on
the Cardinal team of Hoover,
Kennedy, Fickert, Frankenheimer,
Cochran, Field, Orcutt. Hicks,
Reynolds, HarrelSon. Downing
and others. was bent over the
ball playing center.
Back to Harrelson went the
ball.
HARRISON wheeled, deftly tossed
the leather to Capt. Paul M.
Downing, right halfback, who
spun around his own left end for
a touchdown across a White
House macadamized road.
Executed Perfectly
And, when Harrelson tossed
the ball to Downing, he Harrel-
SOM executed a perfect pivot and
swung into the interference
formed for Downing by Kennedy,
fullback, and Frankenheimer,
halfback, opposite Downing:
It was a perfectly executed end
run, as of 1894.
The signal that HARRISON had
called, Al, made up the last digits
of the first two numbers, was
the old 1894 Stanford signal for
a left end run!
The Stanford team Of '94 that
lined up yesterday on the White
House lawn was a fine outfit.

After the old mates posed for a

'94, played a fine game at one of

I felt like snatching the baby up in my arms and running, not only because it would have been a good excuse for me to retreat from the lion house, but because it was very cruel for her to be there.
 She had babbled with delight at the birds, the silly peacocks spread ing their tails and slowly turning to be admired. the clown crow per- forming before an amused audience In the monkey house she had matched stares with an old blue faced baboon and won, for the mon- key has no fondness for eye-to-eye conflict.
 Outside she ringed her small nose in the wire around the deer pen. She lisped buffalo" after her fath- CT when he told her what 'ose fun ny fings" were.
 Then turn and they were in the house where leo felis, his brothers and consorts were getting hungry for their five o'clock tea. Across the wide stone aisle Bengal tigers were blinking their narrow eyes, and licking their whiskers.
 That AWcSOmc Roar
 Suddenly there was a hollow roar You know the sound. No one can describe it. It is characteristic of the lions voice that it cannot be To- cated. It comes from everywhere at once, behind you, before you, be- side you engulfing you in a catacysnl that sends fresh horror down the spine with every volley.
 And that baby was frantic with terror. Her eyes became fixed, then her face reddened and she started to whimper in little low tired voice. A lusty shriek would have been less ominous. She grab bed her fathers leg with both arms
 What's the matter, Donnie? Look the bars? He can't get out. Don't be ry-baby-everybody looking at you. Come on up closer. Look! You want to see the lions.. don't your"
 But there was no answer. The little body was trembling; she held on to that sheltering leg with a death clutch. He couldn't shake her loose.
 Other roars followed. I retreat ed to sanctuary but said us I pass ed the baby, Better take her out. I'm as scared as she is.''
 This time her father pried her loose and got her up in his arms. He was still talking to her about not getting scared so easily" that nothing was going to hurt her. and being a cry-baby. Sut she was far past hearing.
 Many of us have ''lions' of many sorts that we spring on the children. We're never going to overcome their dreads by sudden shocks. And little children like this baby don't need this type of awesome education anyway until a little later. Bravery never was introduced by fear
