TOR some years it has been the
section to speak in somewhat
u sombre terms of the decadence
of Eastern foot ball THE game, "
they said, has moved from the first
landmark to the Midwest, the South
the Far West and the Southwest"
The old game has moved in all these
directions. 1t has spread and grown
But don't let any one tell you in this
year of 1886 that it has left the
East tagging.
For it so happens that, against the
Midwest, the South, the Southwest
and the Far West, the dodderine
East has won over two-thirds of its
intersectional games. Fordham alone
has beaten S. M. U. from Texas
Purdue from the Midwest, st. Mary's
from the coast.
Pittsburgh has run up As
points against Notre Dame and
Nebraska-45 to Z, IL you want
the exact figures. And these
two haven't been regarded as
any weaklings.
I still think Minnesota and Santa
Clara and L. S. U. and Alabama and
Washington and Duke-plus Arkan-
sas and Texas A. and M.-not over
looking Marquette, one of the best
teams in the country, might be a
match for anybody.
If you are discussing the three top
teams from each section, there
might be an argument.
But if you are taking in the best
10 teams or the best Is teams, the
East would be far ahead.

The Argument Opens.

1Hc argument "Opens.
I'VE kicked in with all the sections
as they came up-and delivered.
In the course of a few years there
has been no outstanding section.
Lately the East has Jagged behind
but not this year.
There is no section in the country
that can match Fordham, Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, Dartmouth, Yale, Du-
quesne, Temple, Villanova, Holy Cross,
Princeton and six or seven other teams
when you move out into a wider sweep.
There are certainly IS teams in the
East that could beat Is teams from any
other section.
For example, the Big Ten this
Fall isn't what it used to be.
Minnesota and Northwestern are
among the best. But Chicago, Iowa,
Wisconsin, Michigan and others have
been below par.
For the first time in some years.
the tide has swung back eastward
again. The East has its full share of
quality and more than its share Of
quantity.

from the routine of his ordinary

in Greenland are set down with a

Fathers and Sons


Just the other day, an Italian
Canadianian, whose wife is com
peting in the Stork Marathon 0f
our sister Republic, made this Sig
nificant statement: GAS long as
we're having boys we'll go right a.
long having children. Benito is the
fourth boy in a row. AS soon as we
have girl we'll sign off,"
AS you might guess, little Benito
is named for Mussolini, the boy
hero of Italy. His father, who does
not want any more girls, is natur-
ally a great admirer Of the man
who had "put the italian woman in
her place"
In the animal world, and in all
non-patriarchal societies, the fe-
male is highly priced. In fact, of so
little value is the male among some
insects that as soon as propagation
occurs the male is eliminated. A
mong bees, he is driven out to
starve and in the cases of the scor-
pion, spider and praying mantis, he
is devoured by his lady-love.
quote these delectable facts to show
that nature is not partial to the
male as was thought for many CEN
turies when the "Queen" bee and
"Queen" ant were constantly re-
ferred to in literature as king bee
and king ant. Even today among
many warlike tribes in Africa, In
dia, and in remote sections of China,
girl infants are drowned or left to
die. In so-called civilized Europe,
the dictator countries are equally
contemptuous of girls. They do not
yet drown them, but perhaps death
is preferable to lifelong inferior
treatment by parents and husband.

Amateur Bout Set-Buff and Alberts
 Real Magnet

With the signing of Jimmy De Costa of New York to box Charley Leonard of Willimantic, the amateur boxing program scheduled for Fri- day night at Buckingham hall, un- der the auspices of the Yankee Divi- sion Veterans Association is com- pleted insofar as main details are concerned. The New York boy is re- ported well able to give the Willi- mantle welterweight all that he can bargain for with his leather-c covered mitts, which means that the three round duel, should 1t go the. limit, will be well worth looking at, and probable close enough to rate Q draw decision.
 The all-Waterbury number featur- ing Frankie Buff of the South End and Pete Alberts of Oakville is the particular battle that has the fans talking for both boys are strong punchers and capable of knockouts Hard training for the go has been the order for both of them since last Friday which means that the cus- toners ought to sit in on something very much worth while.
 Spiro Morris, the gruelling Greek is billed for his first local showing in some time, but will find plenty of opposition in Mickey Impronto of Meriden, who IS a smart. clever box CT with @ good right hand that should score against the type of de- fense which Morris produces which is none at all.
