ginning to get something out Of athletics
there. and, unless there is decided
reversal from the present situation. the
future will find Auburn teams well up
in the South's front rank.
One of the most gratifying games
from local view played last week was
Navy. The Tars came through with a
bang, 33 to 0, after their poor showing
against William and Mary in their
opening contest. OF course, one factor
given very little consideration, as far
as that William and Mary contes. was
concerned. was the two games William
and Mary had played prior to its trip
to Annapolis. And those two games
made lot Of difference in the william
and Mary team. Navy apparently is
going to come along now and give its
bigger opponents some real battles.
Princeton went down in its first big
game under its new coaching system,
but that should not be held against the
system. The Tigers, as was pointed
out last week, could hardly hope to
revamp their squad of last season into
sufficiently effective unit to take the
measure of veteran Columbia. Yale
tied Chicago, while Harvard walked
over, around and through New Hamp-
shire to win as 1t pleased.

The Ghost Field.
by CRANTLAND RICE

The Ghost Field.
Here Of old can see them still
As I write with spectral pen;
And my heart leaps up with an ancient thrill
AS Thorpe sweeps by again,
And Dorais swings to the left once more
To peddle pass to Rock,
Or Eckie sprints for the winning score
As time moves back the clock.
There ghosts who swing to the left or right
Or hammer a fading guard;
And Eddie Mahan Is again in flight
For many useful yard;
And the gallopng ghost is on his way
Where the distant goal is set;
There is many ghost on the field today
That the game can't quite forget.

Two Offensives.
IT remained for Michigan and Tulane
i to put on two great offensive drives
in the Midwest and the South.
Michigan scored 26 points against
strong Michigan State team and then
added Is more against Northwestern
Saturday. There was a time when the
Wolverine left the issue of battle to a
mighty defense. Now Michigan has
come back with a strong. savage attack
and there is a whisper from the past
when you read that "Heston carried
the ball"
Michigan has taken the lead in the
Western Conference fight but Ohio
State, PURDUE and Minnesota are still
later season threats.
In the same way, Tulane takes the
early lead in the South with an offense
that is we'll above its defensive strength.
Tulane had to run wild against Georgia
to win in one of those zig-zag scoring
games that now and then break out like
a rash. Tulane still has heavy sched-
ule to face and harder tests than Georgia
was supposed to offer.
This last Saturday was one Of the
biggest early october days the schedule

The New Tiger.

The New Tiger.
DRINCETON lost to Columbia and
- Princeton may not beat Cor
nell, Michigan, Navy or Yale.
But for all that the Jungle
Tigers of 1882 is a greatly improved
breed over the melancholy Bengal of
1880 and 1881. And that means Cor
nell. Navy, Michigan and Yale will have
to- hustle for what they get. Fritz
Crisler and his staff have turned out
a neat piece of work in little time.
First of all they have given Nassau
variety of attack that was badly
needed. Here was a Princeton team
on October 8 well equipped with a for
ward and lateral passing game that
was always threat, even against as
alert defensive team as Columbia has.
There are also later possibilities in a
f1rSt-claSs running game with such
backs as Kadlic, Bales, James, Purnell
and others. An improvement in block
ing will give them a chance to get
somewhere, and thereby strengthen
their passing and lateral game.
Princeton at least is out of the rut
that threatened to lead to quicksands.
This is pleasant news for all who care
for foot ball tradition, for Princeton
figured in the first foot ball game ever
played - just So years ago. 1t was
something of thrill to see the Tiger
turn ana show both fang and claw
after trailing. l3 to 0, against first
class team.
Columbia and the East.
COLUMBIA proved its place as one
~ of the strong teams of the East.
Lou Little has a smooth piece of
machinery for an early October date
and in Cliff Montgomery he has a
whirlwind of a back-a fleet-footed,
sWivel-hipped young man who can run,
pass, kick and think. II
1t was Montgomery's speed and acs
curate passing that helped no little in
beating the Tiger down. He will be
one of the seasons stars and he should
have able help from such talent as
Brominski, Rivero, Schwartz, Natal and
a hard-charging line.
The Columbia line was much faster
than Princeton's-much faster on the
charge. If the Lion reserves can plug
needed gaps Columbia will have high
place in the East before the Autumn
1docS ulGO WulCeI SllOW-CdppeO QS-
bates.
What about the others? Yale still
has hard time getting under expected
steam. The slow-starting sons of Eli
move into their third game without a
victory. Yale's attack has scored enly
one touchdown so far against Bates
and Chicago, which is something of a
puzzle from backfield talent that looked
so good against Harvard last Fall.
One way to answer this is to pay
more tribute to the defensive strength
and spirit Of Bates and Chicago. Dr.
Stagg returned home after an absence
of more than 40 years to get a draw
from the afternoon. He did a first
class job and gathered in most Of the
glory of the afternoon against Yale
team that two weeks ago was supposed
to be one of the best in the East.
EORDHAM and Holy Cross took their
l. places among the. strongest in the
East. Fordham overran Bucknell
and Holy Cross, with team you will
hear more about, continued its STEP
ping. Pittsburgh also showed enough
stun to keep the Army worried all this
week as the Panther stalks into the
Cadets stronghold next Saturday.
Harvard hasn't faced q true test yet,

"Of course those members of the fam

soon give up because OF the good mu-
sic coming into the home by means Of
the radio; on the other hand those
having musical ability will apply
themselves more earnestly and be in

Here's Way To Tell
A Quality Egg

To tell the quality of eggs break
two or three into a flat plate, and
note whether the white is thick
enough to stay near the yolk and
stand up around it like a layer Of
clear, firm jelly. If the white runs
over the plate and appears very
watery the egg is poor in quality
or somewhat stale, according to
poultry specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The quality Of an egg shows up
in cooking. 1t takes an egg with q
good firm white to poach we'll
High quality eggs make lighter
sponge cakes and omelets. For max
ing custards and for scrambled eggs
those with slightly watery whites
will do very well. In the spring prac-
tically all eggs are good and most
of them are strictly fresh.
Any off odor generally means off
flavor. The color Of the yolk
whether deep or pale yellow, depends
chiefly on the feed of the hens, and
is not often an index to quality.

Pork Travels 5000
Miles In Test Case

Hogs raised in Montana, slaughter
ed and cured in Wisconsin, shipped
to England, and then back to Mary
land, a distance Of more than 5000
miles, all in order to study the tastes
of the British market for Wiltshire
sides, illustrate the thoroughness with
which the United States Department
of Agriculture studies the foreign de-
mand for American farm products
In study of the pork buying of the
English trade, the department shipped
10 Wiltshire sides to England in 1890.
The sides were from hogs raised on
the departments station at Miles City,
Mont. They were cured in Milwaukee,
then shipped to Liverpool and sold on
| the market. Later, an English broker
selected four of the American Wilt
shire sides, as well as four each from
Ireland, Denmark, Poland, and Sweden
and shipped them to America.
The Wiltshire sides were taken to
the. United States Animal Husbandry
Experiment Farm at Beltsville, Mr.,
and subjected to several tests. They
were examined for soundness, photo
graphed, measured, cut and the per-
centage of each cut computed. The
meat was then chemically analyzed,
the amounts of curing ingredients
present in the meat were determined.
The meat was roasted in the labora-
tories of the Bureau of Home Eco
nomics and its palatability ascertain
ed by an experienced cooked-meat
judging committee.
The study indicated, among other
things, that Americans have hog
types which can produce acceptable
Wiltshire sides for the British mar
ket and that satisfactory feeds and
feeding methods are available for this
purpose. It also indicated that heavy
curing probably is not essential to in
sure the American product reaching
the foreign market without deterior-
alton.

Trees!

Words of praise are due people who
plant trees this spring. They may not
be able to write lines of poetry, but
they exemplify in this practical act
many thoughts of poetic imagination.
Perhaps they recall Bryant who
called trees Goods first temples" Or
Tennyson, who wrote about the music
of the woods, or Keats, who spoke of
the trees as green robed senators. y
Or Pope, who said that tree is a
nobler object than prince in his cor
onation robes.
Few of us can adorn our homes with
famous paintings, statuary, or works
of high artistic craftsmanship. But we
can all plant trees, which to every
imaginative heart have more beauty
than any artificial product of mans
hands. Thus the humble little cottage
may become center of more charm.

Chemists Test
Weeds For Latest

Two weeds, one q native and one
a Russian plant which may develop
into a profitable crop for some areas
Of this country, are regarded by
chemists as possible sources of in
sect poisons which may in time take
the place Of some Of the pyrethrum
flowers Of which we now import
about 10,O00,O00 pounds a year.
The native weed is Cracca virgin
lana, commonly called the DEVILS
shoestring. This plant grows wild
in Texas and elsewhere, and has
been observed to be practically as
poisonous, to some insects, as derris
and pyrethrum. Federal and state
chemists and entomologists are stu
dying the plant and are trying to de.
wise methods for extracting its pois-
onous content in usable forms.
The scientific name of the Russian
weed is Anabasis aphylla. Chemists

The Celebration and the Campaign

Thanksgiving Day been demonstrated
over and over again. but it has been
shown that the activity of the COM
mission in supplying programs and
celebration material is increasing and
much of this material is for use dur
ing the latter part of the summer and
in the fall months.
Thanksgiving Day is the logical
end of the Celebration period. 1t is
the day when the nation and the world
will have reached the climax of their
tribute to the first American. 1t IS
the day when all other this land and
all over the world, people viii bow
their heads in devout thankfulness
that George Washington lived and
that thankfulness will be more sincere
and more. intelligent because they
have learned the greatest history les
son ever given to people. They will
have learned what George Washington
stands for in the life of this nation.
They will have learned the debt of hu-
manity to this marvellous man.
"The wisdom Of continuing the cell
ebration until Thanksgiving Day will
only be questioned by those unfamil-
lar with the spirit and purposes of the
celebration itself, and especially those
who are not familiar with its real sig
nifcance. Nothing has occurred in
our history that has made such q
. deep and solemn appeal to the patri-
otic spirit of our people. Nothing has
so revived, at time when such re.
vival is most needed, the faith, the
confidence in, and the love of, the peo.
pie of their country.
Il believe that this celebration ha:
done more to aid in maintaining ma
tional sanity during these distressfu
|, times than anything else could pos
sibly have done. | believe that thi!
celebration was an inspiration in it
origin and has been a revelation in it
, progress. Instead of questioning th'
I wisdom Of devoting few months t
/ fundamental Americanism, believ,
that the United States of Americ;
F should continue on forever with SOM
| such great educational and patriot
service to the people. They deserv
. it and most emphatically our countr
/ needs it-needs it now as never befor
-and the people demand it. To con
/ tinue the celebration until Thanksgiy
ing Day was nc mistake. | am no
sure that the big mistake will be i
stopping it even then"
