10000, with about the same number
at the Cornell-Minnesota workout.
Ohio State appears to have an edge
over Wisconsin, while Purdue will be
the choice over 1owa's battered crew.
Northwestern should have little

SPORT SLANTS
By ALAN GOULD

If Joe Doakes or Oscar Zilch hap
pened to suggest there was really no
foolproof defense against the forward
pass, it would draw little but a few
hearty laughs. It's another and more
interesting matter when Arthur
Sampson, Harvards able backfield
coach. writes In the Harvard A. A.
News:
"A close analysis Of modern foot
ball quickly reveals that there is no
perfect defense for the forward
pass. -.
I'm the days before the World war
a defense for the pass was a minor
problem. Coaches now spend
hours in perfecting the execution Of
this play =. and 1t is now necessary
to impart several complicated systems
for defending against the pass"
After noting the obvious advantages
as we'll as shortcomings of an exclu-
sive Zone" or "man-to-man" defense
Sampson goes on:
with exceptional players the man
to-nlan defense will work well. Notre
Dame has used it with good results
Cornell has used 1t for years but In
Cornell's case it can not be said to
have been entirely air-tight.
Recently a combination of these
two defenses has become popular
Many coaches now teach this style
and, although 1t is still full of loop
holes. the secret OF its success lies in
the fact that it Is difficult for the
offense to discover just what the de-
fensive assignments are in the back
field.
what makes the defense against
the pass even more complicated Is
the difficulty In knowing just when
a pass Is coming. That was what
made that Michigan pass go last year
against Harvard. Newman called
that touchdown play just after Mich
igan had made its third first down
in succession by rushing. Realizing
the westerners were beginning to ad-
vance by means Of an off tackle play
it was only natural that on first
down, the Harvard team should think
another running play was due. II

LOSSES
On CURB

NEW YORK, Feb. S dN.sO.
Reactionary tendencies became
more pronounced during the
course Of today's trading on the
curb market, and losses on a
moderate scale were general
throughout the list.
The disconcerting feature of
the early downturn to the con-
structive interests, was the
obvious return of leadership to
the bear ranks as evidenced
from the persistent selling which
was centered in such leaders as
Electric Bond and Share, Cities
Service, and other stocks which
have been usually active on the
upside in recent weeks.
While the extent of the re-
action was fractional in many
of these favorites, the fact that
the churning around was slightly
more active than that which has
come to be looked upon as
normal of late, indicated that
preparations we're underway to
swing the market out of it's
narrow trading rut.
The inability of stocks to move
forward after fluctuating at the
upper limits of their range for
fully a fortnight, was taken by
many sources to indicate that the
professionals seeking the line of
least resistance. would shortly in
augurate a selling drive in an
effort to turn the trend def
nitely to the downside.
Declines in the utility group
were not unduly heavy. Electric
Bond and Share sold off almost
a point to 431s, American and
Foreign Power warrants was off
1B at 16. American Light and
Traction dipped "a to 46, while
losses Of small fractions were the
rule in American n Superpower,
Middle West Utilities, United
Gas, and United Light and Power.
Cities Service backed up slowly,
dropping to 175s, for a decline of
3s from its previous close. Oils

OLD 101 RANCH

PONCA CITY, Okla. Feb. 5
G.N.SO One of the last stands
of western romance, the Miller
Brothers 101 ranch, from which

came nationally famous.
Reversals, brought on by a
dwindling popularity in the circus
in recent years, and the deaths
of two of the brothers. Col. Joe
and Col. George, cut deeply into
the Miller fortune and the fore
closure proved inevitable. Last
year the circus did not even go

AUX SKELET 7 On
GIVEN SCHOOL

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Presen-
tation of complete skeleton Of
a great aux to the University OF
California Museum of Vertebrate
Zoology has furnished occasion to
the curator, Prof. Joseph Grinnell,
to recall something of the history
of that great diving bird, which
now is extinct.
The gift is from the Museum
of Comparative Zoology at Cam
bridge, Mass, through its director,
DR.. Thomas Barbour.
Unable to Fly
The great aux, also known as
the North Atlantic penguin, stood
% to 80 inches high. Its wings
were too short to support it in
the air, but we're used to great ad-
vantage in swimming. There are
stories to the effect that an aux
could outdistance a six-oared boat
in race.
In appearance the auks re-
sembled castaway missionaries
dressed in black frock coats and
white shirts. Their feet competed
with their tails for position, and
as a consequence the auks stood
erect, giving them still more the
impression of little men in full
dress.
Killed in DrOveS
Although they regularly swan
thousands of miles, as far south
as Florida, they were more given
to parliamentary sessions on rocks
than to motion, and this proved
their undoing.
They proved so amenable to
murder that for three centuries
they we're objects of slaughter by
fishermen, sealers and others.
They were valuable for human
food, the feather trade, fish bait,
and even as source of fuel, for
their bodies were layered with
oily fat.
