 Political observers believe that by 1940 the La Follettes may be ready for a national third party. However, they see too many tech nical difficulties now, principally the mechanical propblem of getting a third ticket on the ballot in all the states this year.
 In February, 1884, however. when the conference for Progressive po- htical action was flourishing little thought was given to nominating Robert M. LaFollette ST. for Presi- dent. Actually the convention which did nominate him met as late as July in Cleveland and the ma chinery to put his name on the ballot was so successful that the voters had a chance to vote for him in all but one of the states.

NOW IN SEATTLE

MT. Terhune, who is now in Se- attle in connection with Game Commission matters asked for a transfer some time ago after in- terviewing doctors in the States who told him he should seek a drier climate. According to in formation to The Empire he will go direct from Seattle to a new executive position which will have to do with general game matters in the States, later probably being assigned to a district of his own in the Southwest.
 Terhune first entered the Alaska game service on May Is, 1924, at Petersburg as Deputy U. s Fur and Game Warden. On June 1, 1927, he succeeded E. P. Walker as Executive Officer of the Alaska Game Commission and represen- tative of the Biological Survey in the Territory, the post he has held continuously until this time, with headquarters in Juneau Prior to coming north, he was connected with game management in the State of Washington.
 The Executive Officer is consid- cred one of the best posted men on game in the nation and has been an authority on Alaska wild life for years. He is widely known not only in Alaska but throughout the States in game circles and among the big game sportsmen and fish ermen.
 Frank Dufresne, who has been assistant to Terhune, is now Act ing Executive Officer until the ap- pointment of a successor Predic- tion was made here that he would be appointed to Perfumes post, but no confirmation has been made from Washington

WON'T SUPPORT BORAH?


 Political insiders, however, say that even Borah nomination would hardly swing the La Fol lettes into support of Republican ticket this year. Although per- sonally friendly with the Idaho Senator and sharing many of his views, they are not likely to forget that Borah remained in the Repub- lican fold in 1924, when their fa- ther, Robert M LaFollette Sr., bolted the party and ran for Pres ident as Progressive.
 Many of their followers, includ- ing some Progressives in the House of Representatives, lean more to Borah than to Roosevelt.

Up to Northwestern Reserves.

Up to Northwestern Reserves.
7 YNN WALDORF, the Northwest
ern mandarin, is one of the best
coaches in the game. His first string
Is high class. 1t was largely a question
Of whether his reserves could stand up.
You've heard Of some teams IL Iron
men" who played the entire game, but
they don't do this against Minnesota.
Either on offense or defense you get hit
too hard and too often to have much
Of that old zip left in your system.
And requirements who come in keep
up the pounding.
No one has understood his
main problem against Minne-
scat better than Waldorf. He
has know in advance that his
team must look for, and get, the
breaks-and have enough left to
stave off that third and fourth
period assault.
1t reminds one Of an English poem
written during the war after a smash
ing German offensive. The final line
ran something like this-"We all fell
back at the seventh wave-but we wait
for the tide to turn"
Minnesota's invasion of Chicago re-
calls to old-timers the Michigan in
vaston of 1905, when Eckersall was in
his prime. The famous Yost-coach
Wolverine machine had started its
wild rush in 1901, with Willie Heston
leading four-year parade up and
down the field. Michigan hadn't lost
a foot ball game for five years. Then
Stages Maroons finally turned the
trick at to o when a Michigan back
was hurled across his own goal line.
Chicago now is hoping for another
Cook County team to break up another
unbeaten rush, figuring that anything
can happen in foot ball game.

hard tackling and rugged offensive

Cardinals. Brown at right end and

for the Wolves.
Early in the second quarter it ap-

Cardinals had Loyola baffled, but the
Wolves finally solved the offense and

plays with ease.
Though the game was hard played
throughout, with numerous penalties
for roughness against both teams,

M balls claim to sports-page
Wv headlines these days, two
of base balls greatest
pitchers have seen fit to make them
selves heard lately. One, Carl Hub
bell, has broadcasted from his home
in Meeker, Okla, and catered, more
or less, to Horace Stoneham. presi-
dent of the Giants.
The other, Dizzy Dean, broadcast
ing over higher-powered system,
made pretty certain all the world
heard him, although he, too, wanted
his club president to harken with
especial interest.
Deans broadcast was not surpris-
ing. He makes habit of it, Winter
or Summer But Hubbelrs complaint
struck al unusual chord for, except
for a striking similarity in effective
ness on the pitching mound, they are
about as alike as Roosevelt and Lam
don on the radio. Dispatches from
Meeker quote Carl as saying he had
made approximately s150,00O for the
Giants in world series gate receipts
and that he is entitled to share
of it.
This share, Of course, would
come in the form of a fatter
contract and nobody can blame
Hub, although from Memphis
the frank Bill Terry is likely to
work up look of displeasure.
Ever since Terry has been manager
of the Giants he has adopted for his
players a policy of not talking con-
tract, long distance, in the off-sea-
son. What Hubbell has done becomes
a direct violation, but neither Mr..
Stoneham nor Mr.. Terry is likely to
be seriously peeved at Carl. Pitchers
with far less graciousness and ability
have gotten away with much more.
Everybody Wants Him.
RUT if Hubbell's plant is the more
unusual of the pair, Deans this
time may be the more momentous.
Hubbell, of course, will be signed in
due time and probably without an
other peep from him, but the first of
the annual Dean-Branch Hickey duels
in this off-season may mean some
thing, in the opinion of many OBJ
servers.
Diz has been quoted as saying he
wants away" from the Cardinals.
Hickey has countered by saying that
as far as he is concerned, Dean can
go providing the Cards get his value
in talent and cash.
In the next breath Hickey ad-
mitted that several National League
clubs have felt him out on a trade
involving Dean, but that he would
not take 100000 for him.
And Diz, getting in the last
word, has gone on record now
as saying, in effect, that If he
is worth SO much to Hickey he
will demand $4,000 salary for
1887, IL he remains with the
Cardinals.
OF course, Dean will get no 10000,
regardless of what uniform he wears
next year, but at the same time Hickey
has left his chin open by saying that
Diz is valued at upward of 100000
smackers.
