GIVE THE GAME BACK TO
THE PLAYERS

Our American frenzy for organization
Is fine in its place. but it occurs to us that
its place is being gradually extended to
take in too much territory.
Particular reference is had to the man
ner in which interscholastic football is now
conducted in Texas.
Tn seasons past the Interscholastic Lea
que has allowed itself, against its will no
doubt, 10 become more or less ridiculous
In the eyes Of the public at large by its
declarations Of ineligibility of various and
sundry players, players invariably who
have performed on winning teams.
If a player is ineligible to compete in
interscholastic competition, surely that
fact can be determined just as easily be-
fore the season has run its course As after
the season il practically finished.
But this year we seem to have reached
the ultimate In foolishness.
We have a district court declaring an
Injunction against the playing Of a high
school football game!
And we have a state representative
threatening an investigation Of all inter-
scholastic competition because, forsooth,
the site Of a play-off game did not suit
his particular fancy.
When it comes to the point that foot
fall games are won and lost in district
courts and in the halls Of the legislature,
it seems to us that it is time to stop play
ing football or to radically revise our sys-
TEN of competition.
Certainly if the present tendency keeps
up the winning coach will be the one who
knows the most law and his most success
full players those who best follow his legal
lectures.
BY giving the game back to the players
we might have some difficulty in determin-
ing an official state champion and all that
sort of thing, but we believe the boys who
play the game would get more fun out Of
it, would become better players animated
by a better spirit, and if these are not the
primary objects Of the game it Is time
football was illegalized, anyway.

the nearest they could get to the factory
was the top Of a hill across the river.
So what did they do? They got golf
balls and drivers, teed up, and proceeded
to drive a barrage Of golf balls at the fac
tory windows. They drove hundreds of
them, and the state troopers were called
out, and the thing finally resolved itself
into an old-time pitched battle.
But the golf angle was a new contribu-
ton to the labor struggle. And consider
ing the fact that golf has always been
supposed to be the game Of leisurely boss
es, there i something grimly humorous
about this new kind Of tactics.

and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine
There are certain types OF people who develop,
omewhat late in life or occasionally during child
hood. an excessive amount Of action on the part Of
a gland which Is located In the skull. This Is
known as the pituitary gland.
A part Of the pituitary gland delivers into the
blood a substance which Is associated with a stimu-
lation to growth. When the amount Of this sub
stance Is excessive, growth Is speeded up and the
period OF growth Is extended. Under such circun-
stances men grow very tall and large 50 that they are
said to be giants.
The condition Is called gigantism IN many in
stances the condition is associated with a tumor Of
this gland. Giants are said to be weakly and az in
ferior intelligence and seldom do they live beyond 40
years OF age.
There are other cases III which the gland fails TO
deliver adequate amounts OF the growth-producin
substance into the blood. In such cases the person
tends 10 be much smaller than normal.
The failure TO grow affects not only the bones. but
also the organs and other tissues OF the body, 50 that
these dwarfs might be quite well proPortioned. Some
times they may grow very slowly, 50 that as they get
older they take on the appearance OF premature old
age.
Associated with these disorders " growth may
come other changes In the body, depending on the
manner IN which the glandular substances are de-
nFereu bV the glaNnS. One COnGltlOl II Caleu
acromegaly.
In this condition the lower Jaw becomes enlarged
and ~protrudes, eyebrows get prominent. the teeth
become separated due 70 the fact that the jaw bones
grow too long. the hands and feet get large be-
cause all OF the small bones grow too much, and the
spine develops a forward bending.
The nose and lips become large and tie skin gets
coarse. This condition usually comes Oh between 20
and 40 years Of age, and may affect both men and
women.
IT II Is determined that there Is a tumor or the
gland when these changes begin to take place. IL Is
sometimes possible to perform an operation and stop
the changes. r. Is also possible in some cases, by
the use or the x-ray. 70 stop the overfunctioning OF
the gland and thereby ID save the person from the
extraordinary changes that occur.
Most or the glands OF the body are associated III
their activities. 50 that when one ~ disordered, 9TH
ers may also be disordered.
For this reason. activity of the thyroid. the
adrenals and the other glands should be investigated
At the same time. because sometimes correction Of
the over-activity OF the associated glands will bring
about significant changes in the activities Of the
pituitary gland.

The recreational value Of the 1872

Under direction of the Forest Serv-

10000 acres Of camp ground, and
there are now nearly 5000 public

It is expected that more than 35.-

In many forest communities. income
from tourists and recreationists is
much greater than that from the for
est product industries, the report adds.
