TN looking back through a foot ball
season which now has only a few
games left, it is remarkable how
little there is that looms in sharp.
bold relief. The picture in the main,
leaves a blurred effect, with few decisive
standouts-so evenly was the balance
of power set.
Here are a few examples:
Purdue missed clean slate by one
point Nebraska and Wisconsin missed
unbeaten campaigns by one point. One
point barred Tennessee and Auburn
from unbeaten, united seasons.
Michigan and Southern California
had to call on field goals to keep the big
slate spotless all the way through.
Notre Dame, the team that appears
to be the strongest of them all, had one
decisive defeat thrown into its startled
ranks.
Colgate. with the largest margin all
the way through-without point reg
istered against it-lacked the schedule
test that others had to face. That was
no fault of Colgate's, but this is a dis
cussion of facts and records.
Pittsburgh strong enough to beat
Army and Notre Dame, was not strong
enough to beat Ohio State and Ne
braska-on those two Saturdays.
There probably never has been
foot ball campaign where so many
teams were evenly matched-which is
the way it should be. 1t has been an
amazing season in regard to tie games
and games decided by one point or
drop-kick.
Pop Warmers Resignation.
THE shift of Pop Warner from Stan
i ford to Temple is one OF the SEN
sations of this waning foot ball
season.
1t has been known for some time
that powerful Stanford alumni wanted
Ernie Nevers, one-time Stanford star.
now Warmers assistant, to take over
the situation
The recent Stanford season, which
brought more defeats and ties in the
five leading games, only accentuated
this feeling against Warner.
In regard to Temple. the move was
unexpected, as Heinie Miller and Bert
Bell, who have been in charge Of foot
ball there, have done remarkable job
of building up the team in short
period of time.

Foot Ball Crowds.
IN certain places there was an attend
i ance drop in foot ball from year
ago; in others, the crowds were great
er than ever. Public interest was gath
ering force at the finish.
Take three of the closing games. In
the Colgate Brown contest at Provi-
dence the stands were packed and
thousands were milling up and down
the streets outside, hoping for chance
to get ticket
At the Army-Notre Dame game the
stands were packed with 10000 spec
tators after more than 10000 had been
refused or turned away. Thousands
were packed outside the Yankee Sta
dunn when this game started on one
of the coolest days of the year.
At Franklin Field, for the Army-NaVy
game, every square foot of space was
taken, with more than 10000 swarming
outside the gates. If there had been
space more than 100000 would have
seen this game played.
Advance reports from Los Angeles in
dicate a crowd cf between 10000 and
100000 for the Southern California
Notre Dame meeting.
In the final checking up Notre Dame
will lead the attendance count by a
wide margin. Notre Dame played to
10000 in Pittsburgh. $1,000 in Cleve-
land, 10000 in New York, and its big
gest crowd is still to come.

its 25th anniversary.
In the afternoon Arid Olsen gave
lecture on the necessity of expert

truer and fuller realization of life's
duties and appreciation of life. There
is something much greater than eco

he pleaded for more internationalism

Independence Day.
Monday, the Fourth of July, was a
bright sunny day, and the 1875 to $50
visitors, as we'll as a good local crowd
gathered in the forenoon at the park
and spent the whole day there. An
excellent Independence day address
was given by Prof. Nielsen at 1920
and in the afternoon Prof. Olsen also
spoke on patriotism, civic duties and
the building of good citizenship.
They denounced physical and brute
force.
The kittenball game between Min
neapOlis and Askov was rather one
sided affair, the stump pullers being
| too fast for the millers. The final
score was 25 to in favor of Askov
but was a jolly affair anyway. Kit
| tenball is not exactly the hobby of
the millers, they rather excel in sing
| ing. Danish folk dancing by group
of Askov boys and girls was exhibited
in the open under the direction of
Miss Sigrid Jensen. They were all
dressed in the national costumes
which lent color and beauty to the
affair.
In the evening the older folks gath
cred at the assembly hall to listen to
a lecture by the Rev. Mikael Mikkel-
sen of Withee, Wis. His discourse
was on longing" the value of it and
the growth of the individual during
such times and the effects of it on the
individual. In the meantime the
younger folks were having their final
| good time of the convention with a
dance in the D. B. S. hall. After the
lecture at about $50 the older folks
came over to the big hall and wit
messed an exhibition of Colonial dane
ing-the lanciers-by four young
couples, also under the direction OF
Miss Jensen. Following this lunch
was served in the basement and the
convention was rounded out with an
other two hours of jolly dancing by
all.
