Andy Kerr, Colgate's football
coach, has a flock of pet ideas on
how to improve the game. He gets
to try out some of them in an ex-
perimental game one week from to-
day. His ace suggestion is having
a IL man team. The twelfth man
would take no part in the play
but would be field general.

As move towards strengthen
ing the offense Kerr proposes that
there be five first downs instead
of the customary four. He also
sponsors the frequently proposed
method of scoring which provides
one point for each earned first
down.

DRINKER TO KNOW WHAT HE GETS.

The Federal Alcohol Administration is going to make stringent regulations to stop misbrandlng oi whskey and to show the consumer what he IS re- ceiving for his money This is good news to Alaskans now that the Alaska Repeal Bill has been passed by the Senate, the next step is the House and final signature by President Roosevelt.

JUAN's REvENeN

TT MADE Grahame feel clumsy \ and uncomfortably unwashed. He passed his hand over the stubble of beard on Lis cheek: he ran his fin gers through his hair in an uncon- scious attempt to tidy himself. The girl smiled.
 They left me my compact" she said, still smiling.
 Grahame chuckled, then abrupt ly his expression sobered.
 Have they told you. .'
 While her smile was fixed, he no- ticed the clear blue of her eyes darken.
 "Yes." she said quietly, q know Is there any hope at all?"
 The guards seemed very still Although they were speaking in English he observed that some were pressing close, as if listening Grahame's glance met the girls lev1 ely.

 From the entrance of the temple. house, Ortega came. His hands were bound behind him, and two guards held him by the elbows. His apparently was pitiful plight.
 The mans lips were flaccid with panic: coherence was lost in the jumbled sentences that tumbled from them.
 'He lies! The boy lies! I tel you l am your friend. There is mistake. I brought these people here for you. I have been your friend for years.
 One of his guards struck him across the face.
 A drum began a flat, suller humping from within the temple.
 A figure suddenly appeared at the temple entrance. Grahame recog nized the dark face of the ahkin although the figure was strangely changed.
 The ahkin left the sacrificial stone, and approached Ortega. He held his hand above the Mexican's head. and released a small shower of feathers upon him. The big man winced as the downy particles i touched him quite as if they burned his skin.
 The priest drew his knife and held it over the stone.
 It happened suddenly. There were no preliminaries. Fresh smoke .il. lowed from the te mple door. Grahame heard scuffiing, and an agonized cry that broke in squeal

 Delegate Dimond is doing wonderul work for Alaska and has already proven himself eminently qualified to discharge the duties of his office. It is just possible that someone may oppose Anthony J.

ADVERTISING KEY TO PROSPERITY.

The greatest potential force for the political, economic and social welfare of the nation is not in editorial columns of newspapers but in the adver- Using space This was the sound logic recently given by Kenneth Collins Assistant to the President of one of the largest commercial houses in Phila- dephia, at the annual meeting of the Pennsylvania Newspaper Publishers Association MT. Collins said:
 Stimulation of the desire for goods is the
 missing link between the enormous productive
 capacity of this country and its ability to
 buy I advocate the building of sort of
 composite industrial giant based upon the
 development of thousands of hitherto un-
 plotted articles, of which might be
 extremely important in it's own right, but
 all of which taken together might enable
 this country to match purchasing desire with
 productive capacity.

None" he said distinctly.

"None," he said distinctly.
 She drew q breath, flutteringly. Her should ers straishtened, and her chin lifted. Then suddenly, as if by impulse her hand reached out and patted Grahame's wrist.
 Thank you, Frank" she said. "You came into this for me, didn't you? I can't say anything" The activity of her guards interrupted her. They were hedged through the doorway and into the early sun light.
 Grahame blinked his eyes at the shimmering glare. A few hundred yards to the left the serrated sides of the great pyramid slanted up ward toward the temple-house. In the quiet air above, column of smoke streamed straightly upward, then fiattened as it touched some new atmospheric stratum.
 Crowds of people clung to the sides of the huge monument and were gathered about it's base. As they pressed through the lanes made by their guards, they saw that the concourse was composed of both sexes, men in their breech-clouts and sandals, the women in their long cotton robes.
 Some of the women carried young children upon their hips, holding older ones, solemn eyed little people, by the hand. A gala day for them, thought Grahame bitterly, like the Roman shows of old in the coliseums when men were caused to founder in their own blood, for the glorification of Caesar.
 It was age-old, this business: it was only the conditions that varied. THEY mounted the eastern steps. l This side was clear of people, whether because of official man. date, or because the show would be more interesting on the side facing the pool of the cenote; at any rate, Grahame made a mental note of the fact.
 As they topped the last of the steps he looked backward and to ward the central space within the city. There, almost hidden by the long morning shadow cast by dis tant building was the airplane. Il caught some of the suns rays on its metal wings.
 To Grahame, from the height al which he stood, it appeared like 8 tiny dragon-fy resting upon a dis tant stone. He felt the skin of his

 Had the tires held their imitation? The stuff poor Juan had poured into the tank might not have been high test gasoline. Perhaps Langton had left enough in the carburetor to rev LID the motor until it's heat would make an inferior grade good fuel.
 A cloud of incense wreathed about the heads as they were taken around the temple-house to the altar slab. It made Janet cough. It smelled like burning paint, with an under-odoi that was like rank to- bacco.
 They turned the corner of the house. Facing them, held by two armed natives, vas Juan. The lads face was pale. About his head was swathed cloth, stained with dirt and blood.
 His eyes however, flashed with anger and defiance; they glittered like fresh-chipped obsidian. The lips beneath his aquiline nose were a thin line of defiance. As he saw Grahame they relaxed in a smile. "DUENOS dias, Senor," he greet
