What Has Been Learned i'm
Five Years of Watching?

To the Editor Of The Star:
I very frequently read your interesting
column, "Stars, Men and Atoms" Was
annoyed and Mortified in reading the
article of January 20 on the dissecting
of the brain of a cat which, when COM
pleted, changed the unfortunate crea-
ture into clawing, raging demon at
one minute and purring feline in the
next. and all this strange behavior, DR..
Bard tells us, he discovered quite by
accident.
The knowledge he was seeking in his
brain experiment is something to
guess at.
But we do know that we are practicing
cruelties that harken back to the dark
ages.
Now the good doctor tells us he has
been watching this poor creature for five
years. I wonder If he has found any
thing worth while in that short time and
what possible reaction for good came to
him in the watching.

Freedom of speech will always be as

His battle waged from morning,
Thru noon and on to night;
It waged from start to finish
To hold that thing called Right.

It left him spent yet strong;
For he had gained an insight, I
To that grim thing called Wrong.
After long sleep he wakened
In spiritual release,
And found In the dawn silence
The thing that men cali Peace.

 No Improvement Yet
 Sewanee hasn't won a conference game in five years and lacked the material to make a serious bid for the title in the last Is.
 This year is little different from the last several There are 25 men on the squad, few better than first class prep school players.
 But Harry (Hec) Clark, young coach of the Tigers, sees the day when they will regain much of their football prestige.
 We are using 16 scholarships this year. Clark explains, and the other 16 next year. In about three years we'll have them rotat- ing so we can feel the effect of better material. I know we'll never rate topnotch with only 32 paid players, but we'll be in a contend ing position and not pushover'
 In the last decade of the 18th century and up until 1920, the Tigers were called the scourge of Southern gridirons. The squad in those days numbered only about 20 players, but they took their rivals as they came, winning usual ly by lopsided scores.
 The high mark was reached when the Tigers played five games in five days, all away from home, and won them decisively.

40-yard mark off a head-gear, an act which caused the Southern Con- ference to bar the use of head gears for kicks. A week later Du- cote showed he really did not need the headgear by booting a field goal from the 50-yard line.
 Too Much for Tigers
 The most spectacular play I ever saw on the gridiron enabled Ten nessee to beat L. s. U. by one touchdown at the close of the 1884 season." said Ducote.
 With the score tied and about one minute left to play, Tennessee pulled fake kick from a modified Statue of Liberty, from which a long pass developed. This special formation had been purposely shown the L. S. U. team several times during the game, only with the side back taking the ball on an end run to his left. Each time Tennessee was thrown for a loss.

 And the open and above-board policy for outright payment to players through athletic scholar ships" at the University of the South - Sewanees official name has athletic and educational circles of the South buzzing.
 The plan instituted this year is focusing almost as much attention on Sewanee as the school enjoyed when it's Tigers defeated five op- ponents within five days more than three decades ago.
 There is no denial of the finan- cial backing of the. Sewanee foot ballers The regulations laid down for recipients of pay envelopes are clearly stated.
 However, the university declines to make public the sums allotted for gridiron talent. They are under stood to cover all expenses incident to school attendtnce-tuition, room board, incidentals.
 Following the Southeastern Con- ference action lifting the bars or subsidization, Sewanee's Board o1 Regents debated the subject furi- ously and wound up by granting 32 athletic scholarships"

SPORT SLANTS

The Yale football team reflects the personality of its irrepressible captain, Larry Kelley, judging from the manner in which the Bulldog gridders outsmarted Cornell, Penn sylvania and Navy to run up three victories in their first three starts. The boys in blue took advantage of the inexperienced Cornell play CTS and dug deep into their bag of tricks to win. Against a potentially powerful Pennsylvania eleven, Yale looked like truly smart team, out witting the Quakers at every turn. There have been some attempts to account for Penns failure to take advantage of it's several scoring chances with the explanation that the Red and Blue giants failed be- cause they were over-anxious. Per haps. But, more than likely, it was simply because Larry Kelley and company were smart enough to make the Quakers play right
 into their hands.
 Yale's victory over Navy was scored in typical Kelley manner. Just when it appeared that the Middies were destined to send Yale down to defeat, Kelley popped up with a play, intentional or other wise, that changed the entire com p,exion of the contest.
 Navy was leading the Eli eleven 7-6 late in the third period. Tony Mott of Yale got off a booming punt which Sneed Schmidt, Navy pack fumbled on his own 25-year line. Schmidt and Bob Carey, Eli end, were rolling around trying to get their fingers on the bounding ball when along came Kelley to kick the oval out of their reach and toward the Navy goal line. The officials must have been convinced that Kelley's act was accidental or they would have ruled it foul. It is anything but cricket to kick Intentionally a loose ball.
 Navy Wonders Why
 Kelley picked up the rolling ball three yards from the enemy goal line and carried it over. No score was allowed, but ball was given to Yale on the 3yard marker. In two plays Yale was over the line and enjoying the margin which was to prove sufficient for victory.
 Once again Yale walked off with the long end of the score while the foe wondered how and why it was beaten.
 One of the tricks the Yale eleven used in trouncing the inexperienced Cornell eleven was the ancient Statue of Liberty play. The incl dent was discussed in a recent fan ming bee and caused Moon" Du- cote, President of the Southern Football Officials Association and Rose Bowl official in 1885, to re- call the occasion when a version of the Statue of Liberty play enabled Tennessee to score over Louisiana State University Ducote was one of the greatest backs under Mike Donahue at Auburn. He won fame by kicking a field goal from the

s.deration when studying the rela- tive values ard economies of the different meats.
 Liver from such animals as the calf, steer, lamb, sheep or pig Is valuable because of its vitafnii content an d also for the largo amount of nitrogenous matter con- tcined. Celf's liver is of course first choice. But the small end of beef liver is often mistaken for caifs liver if the purchaser is un. familiar with the appearance of both.
 Liver, to be good, should be clear, bright, and of yellowish red. Even though beef liver Is not considered as fancy" as salf's liver, 1t may be made delicious if care- fully prepared. Try pouring boiling water over the liver and then, be. fore sauteing, let 1t marinate for several hours in French dressing made with three tablespoonsful of olive oil to 6 few drops of lemon juice or vinegar. and one teaspoon full each of sugar and salt, with Q dash of pepper and paprika. The result will be Q finer tenderness and flavor, and, too, you will have found 0 very economical meat.
 Kidneys are also high in food value, and when properly prepared are exceedingly tasty. There are beef, veal,' lamb and pork kidneys; those of the veal and lamb being considered the finest choice.
