Human Sacrifice Still
Prevalent in New Guinea

Sacrifice of human beings to pro-
pitiate the spirits of wind and water
was witnessed by a British patrol
officer in Papua, according to his re-
port recently submitted in Port
Moresby. The government has or
dered that the rite cease. The Off
Ger said the rite is traditional. The
victim may be either a man or a
woman, and is always member Of
another tribe, found alone in the
swamps.
To the accompaniment of dane
ing, singing and the beating of drums,
the victim is killed, and the body cut
up with full ceremony" Some parts
of the body are eaten; others are
preserved as trophies. The upper
part Of the skull is retained by the
chief and the lower jawboae Is the
perquisite of his second in command.
With these trophies slung on cords
round the necks of their leaders the
raiders believe they cannot lose.

l5-Yard Penalty for
Illegal Man in Game

For instance, Article 2, Rule II, pro-
vides a 15-yard penalty for persons il
legally (without permission of the ref
eree) coming onto the field of play.
This penalty is enforced against the
team whose representative committed
the offense. Since the volunteer ap-
peared in the Dartmouth line and came
within a yard or two of mailing the
Princeton ball carrier this would call
for a penalty against Dartmouth.
Yet Article of the same rule, by
Inference at least, places the burden
for policing the field upon the home
team. So But who said the Off
Gals did not earn their dough?
In 1881 Harvard played four games
within eight days, at Montreal, Boston,
New York and Cambridge. The Grim
son beat Penn, Columbia and Michigan
during that time but could get only a
tie out of the Canadian affair.
30 McMillin completed 11e of the
ITO passes he tossed during the 1920
season. That same year Weaver, also
of Centre, had So opportunities to kick
the extra point after touchdown. He
never missed.
Although he played only % minutes
against New York university in 1924
Wally Koppisch of Columbia scored
three touchdowns and gained 225 yards.
He had Is touchdowns for the season.
Amos Alonzo Stagg is credited with
inventing the tackling dummy while at
Yale in 1889. This was rolled mat
tress suspended from the roof of the
gym.
John c. Bell of Penn and Paul Dash
iell of the Naval academy were the
gentlemen who prevailed upon the
rules committee to adopt the forward
pass In 1906.
Numerals and combinations of num-
bers were first used as signals in 1889.
Up to then, and even for some time
afterwards at more conservative COL
Ieges, signs or catchwords were used
to designate the plays. When, for in
stance, the Navy quarterback wanted
the left half to take the ball he called
out something about the "mainmast"
The fuIIback was the "mizzenmast."
The neutral zone, that space between
the lines upon which players must not
encroach until the ball is snapped, was
created in 1908. The football author
tiles had been discussing such a sensi-
BILE regulation for % years. Harvard's
habit of having linemen cross over in
front of the ball while the opposing
forwards were getting set brought the
action.
Until 1879 the man with the ball was
on his own. In that year both Yale and
Princeton stationed a player on either
side of the runner so as to increase the
difficulty of tackIino him.

Famed Publicists, Thinkers
Answer Much-Mooted
Question.

Will nations ever abandon war?
Will efficiency In killing hasten Its
end? Is peace on earth possible?
These questions were put to famous
publicistS and thinkers by Cosmo-
pOlitan Magazine.
Among those who give their opin,
ions are: Oswald Spengler. Arthur
Brisbane. Havelock Ellis, Mrs. F. d.
Roosevelt, and Amelia Earhart Put
nam. Preparedness was advocated
by some. a better understanding be-
tween nations. and taking of profits
out of war by others.
Havelock Ellis says: 81 have no
doubt whatever that permanent
world peace is possible and will be
achieved when the will to it exists.
There is no war among the animals
nearest to man and no evidence OF
its existence in early mans history.
It is a phase of human development
which may once have been beneficial
in aiding social discipline and CO
operation but today. in the opinion
of the majority of people, it has be-
come useless and miSchievOus. Even
when successful, it fails to achieve
the security for which it is chiefly
waged."
Arthur brisbane says: "World
peace will come when some nation
or group of nations becomes power
full and civilized enough to put an
end to war, If necessary, as Cardi-
nal Richelieu put an end to dueling
by executing a few that fought duels.
Efficiency in killing will hast
en- its end. illumination Of inferior
races may continue for a while aft
er civilized nations cease killing
their equals with the consent and
approval of the equals"
Oswald Spengler says: IF there
were to take place in Asia today a
great uprising against the white
race. countless white people would
join in it because they are tired Of
the peaceful life. Pacitism will re-
main an ideal. war a fact, and If the
white peoples are determined to lead
no more, the cOlOred races will, and
they will become the rulers of the
world"
Amelia Earhart Putnam says: II
believe war can be Outlawed, but not
until mere living offers a substitute
for the beguiling pageantry of the
military; nor until mental attitudes
change through such basic economic
adjustments as rational control of
population and of the production and
distribution of life necessities"
Mrs. Franklin d. Roosevelt:
Permanent world peace is pos
sibility; a probability only if the
world as a whole determines that
self-preservation demands Organiza-
ton for peace instead of war. We
cannot expect to make any treaties
which will not need change. We
must find a basis on which repre-
sentatives of the people may meet
and calmly consider changes occur
ring throughout the world, and the
needs arising therefrom. 1t is OBJ
vious that populations will change

THINGS the box score never told

THINGS the box score never told
me:
One of the nations most celebrated
sportsmen recently has been invading
the Broadway crap games in the eff
fort to obtain support for his invest
ments. Instead of getting out by this
means he has increased his already
big bills by 100000. -. Football pick
ers of the future might note that lit
tie Canisius has a freshman eleven
that might give even Princeton bat
tie. SiiVio Coucci, the Bronx
jockey, goes deer hunting in his spare
time. That recalls the occasion
when Sam HIdreth was hunting and
a deer came dashing down the line
The deer was showing so much foot
that the veteran trainer dropped his
gun, took out his stop watch and
timed it. Jimmy Wilson, PhilIies
manager and great soccer player II
years ago, still can hold his own with
the best hooters.
One reason why Adam Walsh Is so
popular at Bowdoin is that, in addi-
ton to his football coaching duties,
he and Mrs. Walsh always are ready
to provide free tutoring for members
of the squad who are having study
trouble. Incidentally, Dick Har-
low of Harvard will return to Cam
bridge after Christmas to see that
none of his 1886 hopefuls are lost
through going on probation.

Football Captains
Signed Agreement
to Stop Smuggling
@ New York Post-wNU Service.

THINGS you ought to know about
this game called football:
When Princeton and Rutgers played
the first intercollegiate football game
on November 6, 1869, the athletes from
the banks of the old Raritan added
touch of color to the occasion by wear
ing bright red turbans. Perhaps this
really had nothing to do with the re-
suit but the fact remains that the
Princeton staIwarts, who merely took
off their coats and went to it, lost, six
goals to four.
For the benefit of those mild souls
who complain that the modern game
is unduly rough it may be noted that,
in 1887, it became necessary to per-
suade the captains of the Yale, Wes-
leyan, Harvard, Penn and Princeton
teams to sign a formal pledge doing
away with slugging. Possibly this
pledge occasionally slipped the minds
of the young men though because one
year later the job of umpire was Gre
ated SO that the referee might have
some one to detect rough play and re-
port it to him.
In 1921, when Cornell was scoring
3e2 points in eight games, kaw made
IS touchdowns, five against Penn and
four against Columbia. Hanson kicked
81 goals after touchdown for the Big
Red team that season.

manlike conduct or for one or two
other things which provide the referee
with opportunity to deal properly with
all untoward events. (But this was
just Mike Mesco, fan sin his cups.~
The rules do specifically state that
ain the case of any act which is palpa-
bly, unfair and is not provided for in
the rules the referee shall have au-
thority to make such ruling as in his
Judgment may require"
1t is probable that the officials took
good thought of this very sensible rule
when they merely ordered the intruder
to be removed from the Princeton field.
Otherwise they might have mixed them
selves up in legal tangIe, since a very
fine distinction would have to have
been drawn.
