INDIANS AWE
'BANA TEAM

PASADENA. Cal, Dec. 2S.-The
Stanford Indians today held
their first workout here and
Tiny" Thornhill sent his charges
through a stiff practice that
made the eyes of the Southern
sports writer's pop out of their
heads.
"Say, they're big, those boys
are" volunteered Zipp New
man, Birmingham writer, as a
group assembled on the side
lines. "They look bigger than
our 'Bama boys. At least,
they're taller"
o. B. Keeler, ordinarily Bobby
Jones' Boswell, who now is in the
role of a football critic from
Atlanta, interrupted with:
"That team is smart as well
as big. I've seldom seen such
crispnesS in the way they run
through their plays. Those boys
are alert"
Grayson, the unanimous all
American, looked like his old
self-the same tearing, untamable
Indian of the past two seasons.
Monk" Moscrip and Keith
Topping, the "kneeleSs ends" OF
Stanford, navigated in fine style
despite their injuries that have
left them on the shelf for so long.
Meanwhile, the Alabama squad
went through a vigorous workout
at Occidental College, during
which line scrimmage played the
most important part.

somTthlng about the common practice Of
proselyting and subsidizing football players,

but never with any conclusive results. What
mean to imply is that they still go on

really what this gang Of skull
busters in New York actually
wishes to accomplish in these
funny executive sessions which
they are taking so seriously?
Don't be silly!
Stretching tie Code
What those old rascals up
there in Gotham are actually
trying to accomplish is to de-
termine what they can get
away with in college football
and still stay within the bounds
Of civilized decency, or, put
more vulgarly, still stay out OF
Jail, not be put out of their
respective conferences and not
be frowned on by hypocritical
chronic opponents who are doing
the same thing, probably worse,
but much more deftly, adroitly
and cleverly.
For instance. who has ever
finally defined proselyting or
Subsidizing?
Is there a positive line of
demarkation twixt what an ath-
lete may receive in the way of
depreciation" from his college
or the alumni thereof and be
0 simon pure, or a line beyond
which he may be construed as
receiving aid, scholastically or
financially, Superinduced not be-
cause he is a brilliant student
or scholar, but because he can
block or charge or tackle or
skirt an end with unusual eclat?
Universal Standards
And if there is a strict STAN
dard for measuring such things,
does the same standard prevail
In New England that prevails
in the Missouri Valley or in the
Southern Conference or the Big
Ten?
If there is, I never heard Of
It, and my two big ears are
pretty well attuned to such mat
terS, the better to detect a vio-
lation here or interpret isolated
cases there.
Now. to answer my own QueS-
ton, there is no doubt that
practices which are not frowned
upon in one sector of our foot
ball front are hardly accepted
In other tangentS thereof.
To make a parallel, let us say
that young man at BaZoo Uni
versity receiving certain conces-
sions for playing football can
mingle with teams of his CLASH
fication with perfect aplomb,
even attend the fraternity
dances on an equal footing with
his fellow students, but wouldn't
be tolerated at Snobb College,
two thousand miles away, where
q very strict and SNUG, to say
nothing of self satisfied, athletic
code is followed.
Remains to Be Seen
So, just what the robust gen.
tlemen now congregated in New
York and otherwise cluttering
up the lobbies and corridors can
do to set this athletic scholar
ship ship of state on an even
keel, in order that what is &C.
cepted in one section doesn't
amount to larceny in another,
remains to be seen.
But shorter cut to a desired
destination would be for them to
get athletic religion, pay or
tempt no players, teach what
football they can to those who
drift naturally into the class
rooms and play a schedule in
keeping with such potential
strength.
OF course such a policy would
fill no stadia nor pay for them
either, so the character builders
will talk a lot, shake hands, de-
part and then start conniving

Finally came the plum pud'

record carefully to determine his fit
ness for office.
The job Is one for all good citizens,
not merely that Of the executive
committee Of the Nonpartisan League
whose quarrel is partly political in
nature.
Leaguers, Republicans and Demo-
Gratis who sense the direction in
which the state is drifting under its
present predatory administration,
must have the courage and deter
mination Of the vigilantes OF old.
A few brave, honest and efficient
office holders in the state house have
borne the brunt of the fight long
enough. They must have spirited
support if the power-mad political
machine now in the saddle is to be
defeated.
The state situation merits more
consideration than would mere po-
litical fight within the League. 1t
demands the attention and action Of
every citizen who values the name,
credit and future OF North Dakota.

Burned PAPERS

Former Postmaster General Walter
Brown would seem to be in a spot
where some sort Of explanation is
due.
A senate committee is told by his
former stenographer that he ordered
postoffice files, containing data on
ocean and air mail subsidies, burned
just before he left office last March.
Mr.. Brown denies it, asserting that
only his private correspondence was
put in the fire. In either case, the
sought-for-files seem to be missing.
Here is a situation that needs a
whole lot of daylight. If a former
cabinet member destroyed important
government documents just before
going out Of office, the country has
right to know all about it.
If, on the other hand, lie did no
thing of the kind, and the impor-
tant documents just happened to get
mislaid, that fact also should be
substantiated.
Either way, Mr.. Brown would seem
to be due for an appearance before
the senate committee.
