If WE KNEW
(Author Unknown)

If we knew the cares and crosses
Crowded round our neighbor's way;
If we knew the little losses.
Sorely griev'ous day by day;
Would we then so often chide him
For the lack of thrift and gain?
Leaving on his heart shadow.
Leaving on our heart stain.
If we knew the silent story.
Quiv'ring through the heart of pain
Would our human hearts dare doom
them
Back to haunts of vice and shame?
Life has many tangled crossings,
Joy has many breaks of woe,
And the cheeks tear wash'd are
whitest,
This the blessed angels know.
Let us look within our bosom
For the way to other lives;
And with love to erring nature
Cherish good that still survives.
So that when our disrOb'd spirits
Soar to realms of light again,
We may have the blest. fruition
OF unselfish love to man.

SOCCER VERDICT
TO|TA[|AN A. {.

Italian A. C. soccerists today led
the Recreation League with three
victories as against no losses.
The new league leaders gained
this prestige by a thrilling 1-to-O
victory over Miller Furniture
eleven yesterday in the feature
game Of the soccer program.
Mike Avon scored what proved
to be the winning goal for the
Italians in the second half. The
first half found both teams
battling furiously with the de.
fensive work of Nau, A. Wellens
and Tamagni standing out.
New York Avenue and George
town played a IL tie in the other
league game. The former team
went on the field with only eight
men, but played splendid game.
In an exhibition soccer contest.
the German Americans defeated
the Baltimore Soccer Club, 2 to 1,
on the Benning field. Charley
Edwards was the star with both
of the German American scores.

After all, you don't have to
worry much about the other fell
low if he never gets past mid
field. And only once, and that
once by the length Of your arm,
did Harvard cleats dent Tiger
territory. In all the long years Of
Big Three" football that prob
ably is the first time that ever
happened.
Now Herbert Bayard Swope
was telling me coming back
from Boston on the train that
there was some sentiment in
high places in favor Of asking
President Roosevelt to suggest
a post-season game between
Princeton and Minnesota, a
part of the gate receipts to go
to one of the winter relief
charities. I'D
Such q game could be played
either here in New York or at
Soldier Field, Chicago, the first
Saturday in December, and
with an even break in the
weather there is no telling what
it might draw.
Establish Champ
Such a game would come
about as close to establishing a
national champion as anything
could. There is every poSsibil.
ity that both teams will finish
their current schedules UNI
beaten and united. And, by q
happy chance, neither has q
schedule that is too tough. I
mean it is not too much for
the boys.
Minnesota looks like an au-
tumn breeze from here in, and
I don't think anybody needs
start lying awake about the
Tigers ability to defend them
selves against Lehigh, Dart
mouth and Yale.
Along with some of the rest
of us, the PrincetonianS got a
pleasant shock from the Yale
Dartmouth game. You see, they
had been telling themselves that
Dart1nouth'S White Indians
might prove a tough meal for
their Tigers. AS, of course, they
may still.
But Yale's sparkling 7-to-2
triumph that preserved the long
est, darkest jinx sports ever has
produced, makes it look as
though it's the Bulldog the
Tigers must keep an eye on.
Even so, I wouldn't start bet
ting my shirt on the Blue if I
were you.
So Princeton shouldn't hest
tate if this Minnesota game is
suggested. There must be thou
sands of Princeton men alone
who would like to see what this
Tiger outfit could do if really
pressed.

ball team of 1884 which excludes
Bill Shepard from the first eleven
will be a joke football team.
AlEAmerica
If ever there has been an ALL
America football player, that
player is Shepherd. He is the best
back since Red" Grange. He has
everything a great player should
have, including head on his
shoulders. He probably has more
drive than any other back playing
football today. He is elusive,
powerful as a runner. He can
block, too, which means that he
is not just a ball-carrier. He can
hurl forward passes. He does
everything with that sureness
which only the great football
player has. Any critic who does
not place Shepherd on the first
All-America eleven is either preju-
diced or does not know a great
football player when he sees one.

That episode gave athletic COM

The inquiry which is on sched.

tant problem is considered.

easily defeat Roosevelt. but Cen
trails contest against Western
promises a real scrap for honors.
Central, with its new players
including Mandes. vermillion,
Wooton and others should win
hands down. But Western has
shown a tendency to offer plenty
of opposition all season which it
might again, despite memories Of
its troubles against Tech last
week.
Two of the most improved
players in the series will cavort
Friday for Central. They are
Billy Richardson and Johnny
Jones, backfield stars. These
youngsters ran at will against
Roosevelt early last week, partic-
ularly Richardson, who was af-
forded his first chance to really
demonstrate his ability as q ball
carrier. Jones made an excellent
showing as Central's quarterback.
