A view College
 football is over and woe 1t is to
 many of us, yes, lt was studded with many bright Mpots, exciting elevating and con- troyersial.

Being one of the unfortunates and not being able to see the Alabama team in action this year, but from the glowing accounts of the press and it's coaches, your writer can only say that the "Bama" team has plenty of power and perfect bal ance. The good sportsman. Lou Little, Is in no way disappointed that Columbia did not get a call for the second time, but it seems to this mere judge of football that Pittsburg was equally deserving of the honor.

 MERRY RRY-GO-ROUND Saturday night at the witch ing hour of o'clock copious gatheing of Moo Yawk taxpayers, playboys even down to the office boys saw 14 duos of bicycles ath- letes start their madly pace in the Madison Square Garden which win last for six days with no place to go but around, around and around. The boys were started on their way by none other than Jack Dempsey, who signaled the start with. a cap pistol,
 Fourteen of the contestants are foreigners, with 16 others Ameri- cans. As few of the Americans understand German. Itali a n, French, Belgium and Austria the languages represented by the for eign clements in the riot, the pis- tol was an acceptable compromise. A face most familiar to followers of this race is eggie McNamara. who is the "Old Man. of this event, and can teach all the other fellows what it's all about .. I'm hop ing that Reggie gains the prize bag this year, which wilbl enable him to. quit this mad grind, for va know as well as I, that Father Time will always enter the pie ture sooner or later.
