hour he doesn't use.
Now the job is almost completed
and he stands to lose several thousand
dollars unless he can use up his excess
man-hours-so he is hiring every
body he can to sit and do nothing.
There is in his office a force of about
10 where 2 can do the job. There is a
pipe foreman on the job and they are
using no pipe. Before the job is over
he expects to hire laborers to haul
rock from one place to another, simply
to put in the time, just in order to
fulfill his contract so that he won't
lose his legitimate profit.
If this isn't enough, here's another

After weeks of wondering what dis
ease had entered the body of Edwin
G. Nertz, physicians have at last ar
rived at the solution. An exhaustive
diagnosis was necessary.
1t was known that for some time
he had been addicted with a strange
malady. On the surface it looked like
memory lapsidosia, at times trying to
impersonate somebody else, and a.
other times having Authorizations that
somebody else was himself, taking
pen in hand and delivering a few
scratches, believing that his writings
were yelled in the secrecy of anony-
nifty.
Week after week doctors were puz-
zled. Many times there were no symp-
toms. Earnestness seemed to be par
amount now and then. At other times
there was a suspicion Of the uncer-
tain malady.
After last weeks outburst of pif-
fie, the doctors were all agreed. They
diagnosed the disease as that of SOUR
GRAPES. They also agreed that it
was of the weakest type-POLlTICUS
and therefore rarely dangerous.
The symptom that gave the doctors
their insight was his display of 'bid
hollering." 1t was recalled that there
were no such symptoms of bid hollering
when for instance a Democratic cleo
ton board wanted ballots. The sur
geons also noticed there was no holler
about bids when attorneys for Fed
eral agencies in this community gave
out advertisements. They saw that the
disease broke out only when it af-
fected that part Of the body next to
their pocket, and not that of the tag
payers. Thus the conclusion was
reached.
An after-effect of such a disease
often causes crying with the loss
of much tears, and doctors were of the
opinion that such crying might start
next week. They recommended that
the patient be isolated, after which
the tears would gradually subside.
They predicted that although there
might not be complete cure, out
wardly all would be well.
$50
There surely couldn't be anything
political in such brainstorms. When
from the point of view of Democratic
papers it is perfectly all right for
the New Dealers to spend billions of
taxpayers money-that all of us will
have to pay for-it's rather silly to
mention a county item of dollar pro-
portions.
Then there's a saying that ap-
peared last year on calendar put
out by the Goodyear Tire Company,
that is still retained in my memory.
1t might be we'll to let the saying soak
in slowly. 1t was: Quality is remem-
bered long after the price is forgot

Maybe you would have been classed
as a boondoggler, so perhaps it is just
as well.
During the past several days num-
Der of people were busy in the court

in the records, etc.
Upon asking, 1 found out that they
were making a historical survey I'M

feeling sure that measuring her was

doomed to disappointment. However,
Jesse Ashby, Jr., got measured for a

HOWARD POINTS AIR
GAME FOR MORGAN

Intercollegiate Conference
Here Saturday.

THE championship foot ball team of
the Colored intercollegiate Con-
ference for the past four years will
come to town Saturday when Morgan
College sends its Bears here for its
annual game with the Howard Uni
versity Bisons. Towards Stadium is
the site Of the game, which will start
at 2 o'clock.
Following the trend of wide open
foot ball the Bears are said to be
among the leaders of the sensational
play. Although they had tough game
with Bluef1eld last Saturday, they still
are undefeated, and Coach Harry
Payne is pointing Howard to the pos
sibility of an upset.
While his defense has been all that
he could ask in Towards first three
games. Payne is working on forward
and lateral passes this week with the
view of matching the famed visitors
at their own game.

Gophers Have Wealth of Backs.

M lNNESOIA has tremendous
numerical advantage in the back
field. Where Northwestern has Don
Heap and Ollie Adelman for left half
back, the Gophers can counter with
Uram. Mathey, Moore, Thompson and
Bates At fullback, the Purple has
only Geyer and 10th, while the Goph-
ers have Spadaccini, Rosrk, Buhler
and Faust Bierman has no set
method of backfeld substitutions,
whereas Waldorf never can have Gey-
er and Hinton on the field together,
since that would leave him without a
punter. 10th is Northwestern's best
punter, but rather cratic. His TO-
yard punt saved the Ohio State game,
but, against Illinois, he had one kick
blocked and several fiuttered out Of
bounds after travelling only a few
yards.
Northwestern is hoping for victory
on the premise that its team is better
and further advanced than last year,
when 1t led Minnesota, Is to Z, at the
half and lost only 81 to 10. In that
game, Swisher put the Wildcats in
front with 50-yard run and then
returned the touchdown by fumbling
a punt on his Is, from where the
Gophers quickly drove home. Min
nesota moved into five-one line at
the start of the third period and went
on to win when Northwestern's tackles
became confused in their assignments.
Northwestern is well grounded in
fundamentals, plays a sound offense
and is high spirited, but has no sub
stitute against Minnesota's numerical
power.

find himself in a predicament like
that. Mr.. Crowley turned slightly
pale and hastily proceeded to eat q
few well-chosen words.
Don't get the idea that Pitt
shouldn't be favored, and well favored
for this game" he implored. They
have a whale of team. Our scout,
Hughie Devore. who played three
years against Pitt when he was at
Notre Dame and has secuted EN- ever
since, tells me it's the best Pitt team
he's ever seen, which ought to mean
something.
They can 60 to town on the ground,
and they can also pass. Sure. I've
heard about this Goldberg, but the
trouble is there are four or five Pitts
burgh backs to be watched just as
carefully as Goldberg.
Its a stiff assignment, and
we'll have to be at our best to
hold that score down."
Having thus made his obeisance to
the gods of ill fortune, Mr.. Crowley
signed off-as far as the public is
concerned, at least. It's cinch that
the boys on the Fordham ball team
will hear more from Mr.. Crowley
about Goldberg and the rest Of that
