IT SEEMS TO ME BY HE Eyg4s2

THE traditions of Harvard are,
Il for the most part, wide and
deep. But in the matter of tact, I
find the Cabot college a little
narrow. My favorite radio sports
announcer, Ted Husing, has been
put upon the Cambridge blacklist
because he used the word "putrid'
in referring to certain maneuverS of
the Crimson eleven.
AS I remember that particular
broadcast, Husing did not hin the
offending adjective on any particular
personality, but merely employed it
to describe certain ineffective for
ward passes. And it doesn't seem to
me that a football play, let alone a
player, should be so thin skinned.
Myself violent Harvard partisan
in the matter of football, I found
Ted Husing leaning emotionally in
the direction of Dartmouth. At
least, so it seemed. But after victory
had been snatched from defeat 1 felt
at peace with all the world, in
Guiding Ted.

A Test of Sincerity

Twenty years ago it required a small political rev.
olution to upset the dictatorship of Uncle Joe Can
non over the house of representatives
Today it will require only little courage and sim
certify on the part of the Democrats TO complete the
overthrow of Cannonsms successor, the triumvirate
dictatorship of the house Speaker, rules committee
chairman, and majority leader
The Democrats probably will organize the house
Whether they do or not they may, by combining with
the score or so of progressive Republicans GUST the
system made famous by the Longworth- Shell TilSon
combination The Democrats profess to be the liberal
party An opportunity to prove it will come with the
opening Of congress.
Liberalization of house rules calls for at least these
three reforms:
l. Right of a committee majority to call COM
nfittee meeting
2. Floor procedure that will bring before the house
buried bill on petition of 100 or $50 members.
3. Measures to prevent the opposition of one mem.
Der from defeating bill on unanimous consent Of
private calendar days.
For years score of members of the dominant
party under control of the Speaker the chairman Of
the house rules committee and the majority fIool
leader have been able to stihe legislation at will.
Many good measures have died in committees
although a majority of voters and their representa-
tves favored them.
The time to end this is at the opening Of congress
gram should be to liberalize the house rules.

California Puts Up Great Battle Against
 U. 5. C.
----ByPap

BERKELEY, Cal, Oct. 26.-One flashing thrust which netted 46 yards in five plays gave the Uni versity of Southern California vic- tory over the University of Califor- mia Saturday by score of 6 to O. It was one of the most thrilling football battles witnessed here in years.
 The touchdown came with only two minutes left to play in the sec- ond period.
 California's underrated eleve n went into the contest hardly ex- pected to keep in sight of their rivals from the South, who had been bowling over other Confer ence elevens by top-heayy scores the past three weeks. But the Bears put up an unexpectedly stiff re- sistance which kept their oppon- ents on their toes at all stages Of the game.

GRAND FORKS, N. D., Oct. 26. Costly fumbles and penalties thwarted both teams scoring op- portunities as the University of Oregon struggled to scoreless tie with the University of North Dakota in an intersectional foot ball battle here Saturday before 10000 spectators.
 The Oregon eleven plainly show ed the loss of Joe Lillard, star Negro halfback who was recently declared ineligible because of pro- fessionalism. Without him, the Nodaks easily frustrated the Web footers' running game and aerial attack Both teams punted fre- quently in the first part of the game and in the closing period they resorted to forward passes in a vain attempt to score.

SEATTLE, Oct. 26.-Touchdown were scarce as sunshine out at the Washington stadium Saturday aft ernoon when a determined band of Huskies upset the dope by holding Stanford to a scoreless tie.
 It was moral victory for Coach Phelan's men as Stanford had been rated a favorite to win by at least three touchdowns. Except for one march down the field early in the third period, when the Indians drove to Washingtons l3-yard line, the Huskies surprised the 10000 water-soaked spectators by play ing the Southerners off their feet Washington's closest chance to score came in the second quarter
 when they penetrated to the Stan ford 10-yard line.

The record books start Burleigh Grimes baseball career profession ally at OttumWa, Iowa, in 1913, but before wrapping up the worlds se- rlas debate for the time being, we are in a position to correct this situation with the aid of our Min nesota scouts and the Austin, (Minn) Herald
 Tn the scramble of men and towns for the honor of saying they got Burleign Grimes started in baseball, Austin does not need to use it's imagination" notes the Herald Here are the actual facts:
 Tn 1912 Grimes started in pro- fessional baseball when he took the mound in May at Rocnester. The Mayo City team did not appreciate him, apparently, for in July he drifted to Austin. He got his chance to prove his merit when the local club sent him against Albert Lea in one game of the uble-header played July 4, 1912.
 Files of the Austin Herald of that year contain the following comment: Grimes, new recruit, was on the rubber and won himself a berth with us. He is classy twirler, fields his position perfectly. He is young, good natured and has a smile that won the hearts of the fans
 Tn that game Grimes struck out nine Albert Lea batsmen and per- mitted only two runs, Austin win ming to g. The attendance at the game was 1,037, just about 900 more fans than attend games nere now.
 Tn another game shortly after ward Grimes blanked Owatonna, allowing only one hit. Austin won that game 6 to 0 largely through the fine batting of Grimes, who got double and single and scored twice.
 Later that same season Grimes again defeated Cwatonna, this time by a score of to l. Owatonna touched him for four hits, but Bur leigh famed nine.
