United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 49,
U.P)-There1l be close to 10000
people in the cold gray bowl for
the Haryard-Yale football game to-
day, which would indicate that
aged-in-the-woo tradition has a
very substantial hard cash value.
In fact, the more you think about
the size of that crowd the more
you become convinced that tradi-
ton and deep-rooted rivalry have
no equals as box office pull not
even excepting that standby Of so
many schools-a winner.
A winner is an elegant attraction,
but human frailty being what it is,
a winner is, sooner or later, bound
to become a loser. And when a
winner loses his touch, it's amaz-
ing the nonchalance with which the
customers pass him by. New York
university's football team is d
beautiful example of that. A few
years ago the Violets were riding
high, wide and handsome and Sat-
urday afternoons found them play
ing before a packed Yankee sta
dunn. This year the Violets drop
ped a trifle, and crowds of 5000 and
10000 have been the rule.
But up here a winner doesn't
matter. The fact that it's the
Crimson against the Blue is enough.
The customers and the teams will
be as high-pitched as though Tie
game was for national and inter-
sectional honors. Year in and year
out the excitement is just as great,
no matter whether the opposing
outfits be powerful or puny This
year they happen to be puny.
Yale has won but one game all
season, and that from a decidedly
undernourished Dartmouth team.
The Blue was tied by Bates, Chi
cago and Princeton, and whipped
by Army and Brown. Harvard's
season has been just about as dis
astrous. The Crimson was slaugh-
tered by Army and kicked by
Brown
And yet, so intense is the rivalry
between The Crimson and Blue,
nothing matters but the game to-
day. A victory for the Crimson
today and the 1882 season, insofar
as Harvard men are concerned, will
90 down as a complete and satisfy
ing success. The same goes for the
sons of Eli Yale. You may laugh
at that attitude if you care, and
call it nothing but a phoney front
but it's The gospel truth.
The little matter of which team
will win today is a matter of which
team happens to click. They've
both got the material. Both have
had the makings of a real bal
club all season but both, Tor some
reason or another. have failed to
synchronize. Personally, We lean
toward Harvard, largely because OF
the Crimson's gallant triumph over
Holy Cross last week. Harvard
won that game with five regulars
on the bench. Those regulars viii
be out there today, fit and ready
to go. And Yale, unless it's bet
ter team than we say against chi
cago. Army and Princeton, isn't
the club Holy Cross is.

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 10. - The
first film appearance of Helen
Hayes as a mature actress was so
impressive that Hollywood has de-
cided she gave the greatest per-
formance of any actress during the
year ending July 81, 1882.
The honor was voted her late
last night by a ballot of the entire
membership of the Academy of
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences,
which annually awards gold statu-
cites to those responsible for the
best work in the industry.
There was considerable confus-
ion regarding the decision as to
who won the actors award.
First it was announced that
Fredric March was the victor. The
academy officials decided that be-
cause Wallace Berry receive one
less vote than March that acade-
my by laws called for a sharing of
the honor.

identity of his friend Then, one
Cay, he saw picture of Colonel
Robins in a magazine to which he
subscribes. He wrote to the mag
azine's headquarters, and started
the train of investigation that led
to Colonel Robins discovery by
federal prohibition officials.
Albert Patton, filling station
operator here, told how Robins
came here early in September by
| bus.
Robins, Patton said, went to the
boarding house run by N. R. Nc
Han, and described himself as
Reynolds Robins, a mining en-
gineer from Kentucky. He said
he planned to stay a few days"
Robins occupied his time by 60
ing hiking in the Smoky noun
tains, leaving at dawn and return
ing in the evening. He wore over
alls and jacket, bought at a local
store, and carried a staff two feet
taller than himself
The newcomer was particularly
enthusiastic about the beautiful
scenery of this vicinity. He COM
pared the seven hills surrounding
Whittier to the seven hills of Rome,
and compared the river here to
the Tiber. He told citizens he had
Travelled in South Africa and many
ether parts of the world but never
had seen more beautiful scenery
anywhere.
Denied Identity
Robins built himself tower in
a nearby hill known as Battle Cove
Mount. Patton said, and in his
wandering about the mountains
discovered seven or eight moon
shine stills. Apparently he did not
report them, however.
Whittier is a village of 500 in
habitants, 65 miles west of Ashe-
vile and Z miles from the Cher
okee Indian reservation in the
Smoky mountains.
From T. <. Hyatt who occupies
the room next to Robins in the
McHan hotel, and who was present
when federal officials took the long
lost prohibitionist into technical
custody, the United Press learned
that even up to the last moment
Robins or Rogers" disclaimed his
identity. He claimed he did not
know John Drier, a nephew, who
was called here by federal author
tiles.
They think they have caught
Robins. but they'll have to prove
IT," Robins said according to Hyatt.
Throughout his residence in Whit
tier. Robins has maintained an in
terest in certain phases of life that
had marked his career in larger
field. He was particularly inter
ested in young people and their
associations with the Methodist
church.
In some quarters it was believed
ke was a plain clothesman search
ing for mountain stills, and in
others that he was simply inter-
ested in regaining his health. He
was manifestly interested in poll
tics.

objects of curiosity, is a good ex-
ample of what is to be seen in
Cow, the realistic picture of the
most savage South Sea Island
tribe, which will be shown tonight
only at United Artists theatre.
Cow" was filmed by Capt. E. A.
Salisbury. noted explorer, lectur-
er and adventurer, and owner OF
the collection of battle weapons
implements, war dresses and nu-
merous other articles, which are
now on display.
The name of the film is taken
from the name of the chief OF the
Melanesian cannibals and head
hunters, whose life is pictured in
the film.
Captain Salisbury has had over
35 years of experience with savage
tribes and declares the Melanesians
are practically the lowest in the
human scale as far as barbarlty
and cruelty are concerned.
The picture has been given high
est praise from an educational and
dramatic standpoint by critics IN
all parts of the country.
All the barbaric dances, customs
and practices of the MelanesianS
form the background for the pic
ture, which also has real plot
woven around the abduction OF
the chiefs daughter.
"Rackety Rax", a burlesque or
big college football and racketeer-
ing, is the Sunday attraction, with
Victor McLaglen and Greta MIS-
sen in the leading roles.
McLaglen is cast as racketeel
who attends a football game ano
is surprised to learn that there is
such a thing as big time football
with all the money that comes in
through the turnstiles during the
season.
Determined to 'muscle in" or
the profits. he gets his own col
lege. his own football team ano
develops his own racket, with foot
ball being played as it never was
played anywhere else.
The take-offs on the big college
teams are cleverly arranged ano
provide plenty of comedy which Is
the sole purpose of the film.

Confidence in Higher Places.
Boston News Bureau.O

In the surge of confidence which has swept the market-paces of late, spreading hope far and wide courageous dividend action by few large corpora tions has played leading part. few short weeks ago utmost caution the rule now, by implication, hope of revived earning power in the not too distant future is seen
 month ago directors of the American Can and Allied Chemical and Dye set up a wave of optimism by ordering regular dividend disbursements; now within few days directors of General Motors Drug Inc, and U s. Steel have maintained the regular rate Con preferred in of SteeD all though in each case dividends not currently being earned.
 Powerful men sit on these drectorates Lists of
 40 rulers of the country" have been made, and they recruited from the banking and industrial giants who govern big corporations like Steel
 Motors" and Can" Whether the rest of the country approves of it's own not it never theless closely follows the leadership of the Eastern capitalists, and 1t is deciding that if there's a glow in the East, dawn may be at hand.
 The farmer has been cheered by rapid rise in prices of his products, especially the humble hog, and now the banker and the manufacturer ars buoyed by ample evidence that credit conditions are stronger and that all is not hopeless in Europe. Big corporations therefore sanction greater dividend lberalty, and the influence will be large
 There is greater falacy than that corporate surpuses lie fallow for 1t is out of such accumulated funds that expansion is financed. At the same time it is clearly demonstrated that banks cannot fully employ the credit built out of funds now deposited with them and the individual stock holder is certain to give greater velocity to money he receives in dividends than can the corporation through hoarding it in banks.
 The pendulum is moving very slowly at the end of its swing and but little force will reverse it's direction. After three years of decline, the defla tonary movements shows signs of having largely worn itself out. The present outburst of con- fdence if it proves not to be overdone may be the lever that starts our indices an upward trend.

Guinea Pigs as Tipplers.
(New York TimeS.)


 Some time before the group of guinea pigs at Cornell subjected to experiment in which they daily dosed with alcohol to the point of visible intoxicaton." The results were announced as a fall in the number of births and an increase in the proportion of weakly and de- fectve offspring Woeful effects upon the human race from indulgence in liquor were deduced Now similar test has been made in England The guinea pigs, gathered in cages in special tank received their alcohol by inhaling it. But in this second supervised drinking bout the little anil mals showed that they "can carry their liquor with out any visbly injurious results either upon them selves their offspring" What is the expana- tion? Perhaps in the postwar years the guinea pigs have developed into stronger breed Or it may be-perish the thought-that Engsh-bred ani- mals are stouter fellows than the American
 The English experimenters themselves announce that "the behavior of an intoxicated person up- setting social lfe has nothing to do with the case lof the guinea pigs. The London Morning Post politely suggests that probably guinea pigs no better or worse than others But neither in their nervous equipment in their social circumstances Ido they resemble mankind. Even if the two series Iof experiments had not arrived at opposite con- clusions, they might have little bearing on the human problem. CD

W. C. T. U. IN POLITICS TO STAY.

Not only has the National w. c. T. U become political institution but it. boasting of it's political achievements promises to continue in that field of activity. It purposes to control State and Ma tional Legislatures and declares that it can do so Quoting Mrs Ella A. Boole President of the w. c. T. U. National organization, the Seattle Times of recent date said:
 Six times last fall we stopped the beer
 bills in Congress, and do it again
 Our fight will be in the State Legislatures
 Part of our convention session will be taken
 up with discussion of practical means of
 controlling State and National Legislatures
 Now let the w. C. T. U. join with the Anti Saloon League and similar organizations and form party of their own and all will be we'll That will bring the fight into the open There is no reason why the W. c. T. U. and allied societies should not become political organization if the members desire it and so long they do not mask their political activities. Let them go forth with flag flying and not try to bore from within or play party against party
