DRo8ABLY It is too early to go into
this sort of thing as serious busi-
mess and yet the temptation Is great.
Even though various tennis champion
ships, pennant races, prize ring ar9u-
ments, golf titles and turf contests
must be decided before the thing can
get any man-sized attention -. We'll,
! just cannot resist the wistful eyes OF
all those old alumni who stand there
pleading to be steered wrong concern
ing the fates of their various SiWashes
this season. So today will be devoted
to rappng on wood and mentioning
various items concerning the varsity
hopes of football, taking only the East
for the time being.
AS usual the top choice must be
Pittsburgh. Even though the Rockers,
the Shotwells and the Weinstocks have
graduated Jock Sutherland undoubted-
ly will produce very satisfactory serv-
ice for his very handsome salary this
fall. Indeed he may do even better
than in 1894. There is reason that
is more important than the individual
prowess of the Souchaks and the Glass
fords who will seek to replace the
departed stars.
Last year the Panthers were rather
lightweight for such a wearing, tear
ing schedule. In was the extr.. pres

anything else, squeezed Pittsburgh in

ham and Notre Dame have enough
problems now so we can proceed to
Princeton.
The Tigers of 1894 had experience,
training and physical power enough
to have become the greatest of all
Nassau teams. Given schedule such
as that played by Pitt it is possible
that they might have been even more
successful. AS 1t was, topping over
ancient but easy opponents, the Sand
bachs, the LIE Vans and the Wellers
became overconfident.
This was apparent against Harvard
and disastrous against mediocre Yale
eleven which chose one afternoon to re-
call the gIories of the HeffeIfingers and
the Hinkeys. Naturally the same thing
can happen to Princeton this fall, even
though Yale continues no more than
mediocre and Harvard's main pointing
will be toward the Eli contest. But
for all that Red Blaik's Dartmouth
eleven will be improved and Cornell has
afternoons full of surprises, do not bet
on It.

This habit of flies travelling greai

Distress Money

During the war and after the col
lapse of the Austrian monarchy
when coins disappeared and were
largely boarded, many different kinds
of paper notes, so-called distress
money!" were issued by various
towns, villages and provinces. In
addition to primitive slips of paper
pieces of wood, parchment, leather
lacquer, and even porcelain were
used as money. All these are on
show at a remarkable exhibition al
the Bagenbund gallery at Vienna
The exhibition shows that not only
societies, but also innkeepers, news
papers, and political parties issued
money tokens.
