though Southern CALIFORNIA; Trojans
defeated Notre Dame to finish their
regular season undefeated and united,

night was declared winner of the
Knute K. Rockne memorial trophy,
symbolic of the national football
championship, under the Dickinson
rating system.
Southern California won one more
game than the Wolverines. but Prof
Frank G.. Dickinson of the University
of Illinois. originator of the system
said Michigan outranked the Trojans
because of the superiority of middle
western football in intersectional
games. g.
Michigan had rating of 28.47. with
Southern California second at 1851
Pittsburgh, undefeated but tied by
Ohio State and Nebraska. had 26.49
for third place. and Purdue ranked
next with 1888. Colgate. the only
undefeated and united major eastern
eleven. rated fifth with $500 points.
Southern California won the trophy
last year, for the second time, having
been ranked first in 1928.
Post season games are not consid-
cred by Dickinson in making his rat
ings. and the Tournament of Roses
game between Southern California
and Pittsburgh will have no bearing
in his calculations.

.gress, on behalf of the Chippewa In
dian tribe of the Turtle mountains
in North Dakota, is to be asked to
permit suit to be brought against
the Great White Father to recover
approximately $24,0OO,OO0 alleged due
to the Indians for 100000 acres of
land, including the sites of Devils

kah, Minot, and John D. Scherer,
Willow City. have received power
of attorney to represent them in at
tempting to have congress authorize
the court of claims to review their
case.
A treaty, sometimes referred to as
the "l0-cent treaty" because $1,000
900 was the consideration for relin-
gushing the right of Indian title to
between 100000 and 10000, 900 acres
Of land, or approximately 10 cents
per acre. was ratified by congress in

commission headed by former Sena-

made that other Indians without
right to do SO came in and partici-

vanced for the Turtle mountain In

$3.50 per acre, to be on fair basis
with awards made to other Indian
tribes Of the country
