 nance Proposed

 Will Change Ballot
 A motion was made by Council man Henry Messerschmidt provid- ing for change in the form of the ballot used in city elections SC that the names of all candidates for a particular office would be listed together in alphabetical or der in a single column instead of in the present three-column form as is the present practice.
 It was decided that several sam Die ballots of various designs should be introduced at the next meeting of the council and at that time the members will study them for preferences. Most of the coun- cilmen appeared to favor a form which would list the candidates for an office in one group regard less of party, with the designation of their party affiliations follow ing the names.
 Liquxr Question
 With regard to tne liquor ques- ton, it was stated that so many complaints have been coming in and that liquor and beer dealer have been so lax, that unless there is an immediate change in th' attitude toward the liquor ques tion on the part of those dealing in that business, a new and more strict ordinance would be draw1 up which would include many pro visions not in the present one.
 Councilman Henry Messerschmid declared that he would personal. introduce a more stringent regula tion at the next meeting, and ont which would curtail the privilege of dealers to a considerably great CT extent. Previously he had ex pressed himself as being in favo of considerable freedom in tn, liquor question, and he stated tho his present attitude has growr

Minneapolis, Oct. 17-(R-Aims Of
Pittsburghs Panthers to slow down
the galloping Gophers to q modest
trot Saturday will have to point at a
pair OF racers saving their wind on the
bench as we'll as the high geared regu-
lar Minnesota backs.
The Gopher strategy. with Coach
Bernie Bierman promising to watch
warily for the time to spring loose
reserve power, Is putting q lot OF
faith In Julius Alfonso, halfback, and
Stanislaus Kostka, fullback.
II Minnesota pulls ahead In this
struggle of Tartars, it may be that
Alfonso, master workman in making
use Of interference, and Kostka. who
gets along quite well often with q
minimum Of 1t, will have had q strong
word in it.
In this idea, the crucial moment
for the injection Of Alfonso and
Kostka would be time when Pitts
burgh would appear to be weakening
but still would be strong enough to
Withstand Minnesota's starters. Then
in goes one or the other, or both.
On q speed basis there Is no varsity
gridder around the Gopher lot who
can move any faster than the burly
Kostka, who used to run the 100 In
10 seconds and probably still can. For
q battering, one-lnan attack, no one
among the Gophers equals Kostka.
Alfonso. Minnesota's second ace In
the hole, is regarded 5 the most clever
runner in tho Gopher outfit.

Linton Lions Down
Ashley Eleven, $50

Linton, N. D., Oct. II. = Unions
Lions, high school football team,
swamped the Ashley eleven here last
Friday by score Of So to o.
A pass from Lauringer, Linton half
back, to H. Doblcr put the ball on the
three-yard line early In the first
quarter and Volk plunged over for
the first touchdown. Dobler's drop
kick for the extra point was good.
Another pass from Lauringer to Dob
Ter was good for the second score and
again the kick for the extra point was
good.
Volk smashed through the Ashley
line for the third touchdown and the
fourth was added when Dobler passed
to F1egel. Dobler converted one Of
the two attempts for the extra point.
Again In the third period, Linton add
ed = touchdown and ran wild In the
final period to score four times. The
final touchdown came when Dobler
intercepted pass on the Linton six
yard line and sprinted 81 yards down
the field.
Dobler was the outstanding player
Of the game, making five touchdowns
and adding four extra points on drop
kicks. The Lions will tackle st.
Mary,s football team Of Bismarck next
Friday.

Forward Wall

New York. Oct. 17.-(P)-While it
IS too early in the season even to
begin to rank teams in order of their
national Importance. it looks like a
ssfe bet to say that the survivor of
Saturdays clash between Pittsburgh
and Minnesota will be seriously con-
sidered when it comes to awarding
the seasons football laurels.
On the showing thus far Pitts
Golden Partners appear to be tops"
in the east-at least there is no other
team that has tackled as much in
the way of opposition as Pitts clashes
with Washington & Jefferson, West
Virginia and Southern California
and has remained undefeated.
Minnesota has the nomination CT
rival Big Ten coaches as the tsam
to beat following decisive triumphs
over North Dakota State and Me-
braska.
Forward Walls Closely Matched
Although both have been ragged at
times, the menu seems to call for q
pair Of closely matched hard-charg-
iEg lines with Pitts aces, Henry
Weisenbaugh and Icy Weinstock,
performing behind one and the elu-
sive Pug" Lund, Gopher captain,
behind the other. All three have
shown they can do just about every
thing required Of back and some
Of their mates are good enough to
press them for their laurels.
The only drawback to nominating
this as a titular scrap is that Min
nesota has five major games after
It and Pitt four.
The imposing list of early season
up6etS has snatched some of the
color from a group Of other inter-
sectional games Saturday that looked
like ''naturals" when they were sched-
u,ed and the means of the graduate
managers who had hoped for cap
aeity crowds probably will be heard
tar and wide.
Wolverines Beaten Twice
There are Michigan and Georgia
Tech, normally leaders in the west
ard south, coming together at Ann
Arbor with the records showing four
iefeats between them. Michigan has
ceen shut out by Michigan State and
Chicago: Tech beaten by Wander
oilt end Duke.
The east-west struggle between
Fo-dham and st. Mary's suffered
setback when the Galloping Gaels
from Oakland, Calf. were beaten by
Nevada and F'ordham was barely
victorious over Boston college.
Likewise Ohio States one-point
loss to Illinois took the edge off the
Buckeyes clash with Andy Kerr's
Colgate team. Notre Dame, on the
comeback trail after last weeks
triumph over Purdue. looks q bit too
strong for Carnegie Tech.

Immortal Rockne Built Cham.
pionship EIevens WITH
Mental Preparation
BY HARRY MEHRE
Head Coach, University Of Georgia

Head Coach, University Of Georgia
Athens, Ca, Oct. 17.-lR,-The
winning football coach in this highly
competitive age Is the one who can
mold the mental attitude OF his
team to suit the occasion.
During the course Of a season you
see and read about this and that
football mentor who has gobs and
gobs of good players but very few
victories. And on the other hand
YOU see and read about those coaches
whose material is obviously scant yet
manage to turn up with powerful and
tricky elevens.
That was the secret Of Knute
Rockne, under whom I played at
Notre Dame. Many have said that
the immortal Rock could take a
seccnd-rate team and, through men
tai preparation, send them on the
field on an equal basis with much
stronger foe.
Easier to Handle
It is, in my opinion. much easier
to handle an "underdog" eleven
than winning and powerful team.
Your problem is q simple one with
the lads who 60 on the field rated
below their rival. The lads know the
victory will be theirs only through
the greatest of effort and only after
superlative playing on the part Of
every man.
It is only human nature for the
weakling to desire to prick the ego
Of his superior. Thus 1t Is with the
unfavored and unknown, team.
Talk about job; try handling
bunch Of admittedly strong senior
piayers-a squad labeled by press
and public as champions! It Is enough
to add 10 years to q coach'S life.
There are several ways Of curbing
"senioritis' and cockiness as it ap-
pears. Many coaches resort to the
old method Of benching the stars
when they begin to lag IN practice or
to feel that the opponents coming UP
are gonna be easy" If coach has
the utmost confidence in his boys
ard without it he won. get very far
his task Is somewhat lightened.
It takes days and weeks Of con-
tinual stressing your point some
times before the lads will believe even
you. That is often when upsets
occur-when the boys turn q deaf
esr and take an opponent lightly In
