FAIRY BELIEF
STILL Is HELD
BY CHEROKEES
Indians in Great Smokes
Stand in Deep Awe of
Mountain Ghosts.
BIZ Times Special

BIZ Timcs Special
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Jan. 81
The Great Smoky Mountains Ma
tional park, Of which Knoxville is
the gateway, is inhabited by
fairies. witches, ghosts, and other
supernatural creatures, in the be-
lief OF the Cherokee Indians, who
now live on their reserva ton in the
Smokes, Immediately adjoining and
almost surrounded by the park
area.
These beliefs of the $3.50 Indians
living on their 63,000-acre tribal
reservations, are reported extensive
ly by the Smithsonian Institute, at
Washington, as a result of the study,
by DR.. Frams M. Olbrechts of the
medical practices of the present day
OF. the Cherokees now living in the
Smokes.
Prominent among the super
natural creatures are Two little
red men, who rove around to-
gether wearing caps of purple and
red, surmounted by peak some
whac like that of the German he'll
met. They are looked upon as
friendly to the Indians, and cease
less enemies of disease and death.
"LittIe People" There
There are also various groups of
little people" apparently CORE
spending to the fairies of European
countries. These live in colonies
in. the mountains. rocks, forest and
water. They hold dances and coun-
ellis. Frequently their music and
dancing can be heard at night by
lonely travellers.
There are ghosts in the Smoky
Mountains, too, believe the Indians
now living in the Smokes. These
are feared, though they are not con-
sidered evil. It is believed they are
the spirits of the departed, who have
gone west" that these spirits be-
come lonesome in ghost land, and
make their friends and relatives sick
and cause them to die, so these
friends and relatives may join the
ghosts.
Though these ghosts make their
visits from a spirit of love and
affection, these visits are, neverthe-
less, unwelcome to the living.
For centuries the Cherokees have
carried on the practice of merry
making after the death of one of
their tribe, to drive off the spirit of
death so he will not return to claim
another relative.
Believe in Witches
The belief of witches and wizards
have a strong hold on the mind of
the Cherokees, and these are feared
most. These frequently travel at
night in the form of a streak of
fire or moving light.
The witch is able to take the form
of an earthworm or of a raven.
These beliefs hardly can be called
strange, when the witchcraft agita-
ton Of early white American settlers
is recalled. In fact, the Smoky
Mountain Indians borrowed from
the early mountaineers the idea
that a witch can be killed by
outlet from a gun if a hair from the
crown of the head be wound
around the bullet before fired.
In their ideas of life, disease, and
death, Dr. Olbrechts says, the In
dams hold many beliefs as to the
sun, moon, fire, and various colors.

via the crimson Harry Costello
running attack. However, Har-
ward went to the overhead game
and won through use of the
forward pass.
The contrast of the two de-
lenses in the Yale-Harvard game
indicated that 6-3-2 is a better all
round defense, although it must
be said that Gin this particular
game, at any rate) Yale's over
head was nothing to brag about.
The value Of point after touch
down was clearly Illustrated in
the Ohio State-IllinoiS, Nebraska
Iowa, Mississippi and
Georgia Georgia Tech games. The
first named teams in each in
stance took Z to 6 verdlctS
through goals after touchdown,
the extra point being the differ
ence in each case.
Field Goal to Fore
Field goals once again came
to the front as scoring weapons.

man." Herman Everhardus, scored
two against Northwestern. Will
liams booted one for California
against Stanford. Kelson. Indi-
ana, booted one against Purdue.
Pacetti, Wisconsin, was successful
with one against Minnesota, a
strong wind aiding him in kick
ing one 48 yards (from the So
yard line). There were others,
too.
Long runs figured prominently
in some games, but the forward
pass, mostly against 1922 de-
lenses, proved the greatest scor-
ing weapon Of all.
Breaks aided several teams to
regis victories notably Detroit,
which took advantage of two
breaks to defeat Michigan State.
Remarkable Attack
This observer saw Maryland's
1888 gridiron edition for the first
time on Saturday and still is
wondering how any eleven could
defeat the Terrapins. For sheer
versatility of attack. Maryland
looked and acted like a top-rate
team-right at the top, too.

WESTERN FACES
ALUMNI TEAM

Having officially ended its
football campaign was one thing
on the Western High School
eleven's record books, but being
challenged to "post-season"
game became another thing for
the same Weternites today.
In other words, Coach Ahern's
present Western machine will play
an alumni eleven tomorrow at the
Western Stadium at 3:15 o'clock.
This will absolutely be Westerns
final contest of the season.
Such former stars as Bill Payne,
Shorty Hilleary, Leo Hilleary,
Jack Lynham, Reds Reynolds,
Dick Grattem, Pat Eckloff, Jim
Rhodes, Harry Oliver, Kirt Greve,
Wally Bloyer, Lawrence Francis,
Claude Wells, Vinton Dove, and
Turk Teehan will play for the
alumni, while there is a posi-
bility that Everett Buscher and
Tom Webb, now at Maryland, will
be able to "come down" for the
fraV.

Those three touchdowns followed

Before, Between, After

So the. scoring doesn't tell
all. Before those scores, in be-
tween them and for IS min
utes after the last point was
registered, two teams beauti-
fully matched and fighting
hard and clean, as Teddy
Roosevelt once admonished
them to fight, put up a fas-
cinating exhibition of football
that was equally arresting to
the eye of the grid technician
as to the casual observer.
Two finer lines never played
cheek to jowl. Two greater sets
of backs never kicked or passed
nor slithered nor slashed.
I never saw a crowd leave q
football stadium so completely
satisfied that it was the best
game they had ever seen. The
Navy followers were jubilant rs
the Army's and well they
might have been.
1t was a case of a losing
team looking marvellous.
Army was just five points
better than Navy-no more, no
less.
I'm sorry it's over.

What further proof is needed
than to say that the fifth annual
event, to be held December 16 at
8 p. M, at the Northeast Temple
alleys, will attract a field of more
than 20 of the best Italian roll
ers in this vicinity.
The sweepstakes this year will
be run on a handicap basis with
each participant getting two
thirds of the difference between
his highest league average and
that of the scratch man. who
will probably be Ollie Pacini,
who sports 1874 average.

the winner will receive a medal.
Past winners are Mike Vitale,

glory, as the blank stares on
those amazed countenances of
the returning Army hosts, in
dicated.
Many of the Army followers
were almost in a daze, so equal
were the teams in caliber out
there on the 'sward, possibly
because few had expected Navy
to put up more than nominal
resistance.
From 20 points difference
last year to points this year
is quite a let-down, and perhaps
that is why the graybeards
were rubbing their chinwhisk-
ers reflectively on the run back
to Washington. Indeed, some
thing has got to be done. It is
never safe to let the Navy get
so close.
And Navy was close. All af-
ternoon it was rapping at the
door of victory, and next year
will not be taken so lightly.
You see, another 15-point in
road on Army's margin such as
occurred Saturday, and it will
be a Navy victory.

Yea, the good old Army got
a real scare and the 10000
got a real thrill in that so
minutes of football, the first
20 of which we're chock-a-
block with long runs, short
kicks, short passes and scores
that wouldn't stay put for
more than a few minutes at
most.
Almost before the folks got
settled back in their pews.
Army had scored 6 points
as the result of Beany John
sons catch of one of Bill
Clark'S toe returns, Beany
Scampered some 80-odd yards
without hardly a Navy hand
being laid on his jersey, for
the first touchdown of the
day. The game couldn't have
been eight minutes old when
this happened, and you could
hear the Navy groans all the
way down to Davy Jones'
locker.
But Navy never WINGED! 1t
never batted an eye! 1t turned
to and fought all the harder,
and I'll declare, right there
before everybody's eyes and
before you could say "scat, "
