self to an extraordinary degree In the
potentialities Of American designed
and constructed airships. He Is Ro-
land B. RespeSs of Cranston, r. l.,
who first conceived the idea Of an air
ship built upon principles employed
in suspension bridges. This was seven
years ago and Respess has devoted
himself in these seven years to per-
lection of his plans, spending in ad-
dition about 100000 of personal funds
for construction and testing OF his
models and for authoritative opinions
Of American engineering and scien-
tific experts, This he has done with
a view to offering something to the
United States Government that will
serve at least as a starting point and
inspiration to other inventors and
engineers Of this country who may
have suggestions for improvement on
his design, for 1t Is an American air
ship that is being encouraged, rather
than the Respess or any other model,
and 1t is the desire Of those members
Of Congress who are enthusiastically
In support Of the O'Connell bill to In
vite the best brains Of the Nation IN
developing such an airship.
It soon appeared, however, that the
Respess airship was more satisfactory
than its designers modest first judg-
ment indicated. for when plans and
models had been submitted to repre-
sentative engineering firms and had
been tried out and tested from every
angle in the laboratories Of the Gug-
genheim School of Aeronautics, at
New York University, and In other
laboratories, it was universally pro-
nounced superior in every degree to
the existing Zeppelin model. In CO.
operation with the Guggenheim school.
Respess had developed his airship
following standard procedure, and with
their advice Q scale model was made

painting is entitled "The Sapline
Fence" and shows little cottage
perched on hillside against the sky
meagerly projected by very slight
fence built with saplings. 1t is hard
to say why this small canvas Is sc
outstanding, but one knows at a
glance that it is-it is so simple but
so right, and assured; so altogether
as it should be that it leaves nothing
to be desired.
Mrs. MacWhite's painting-which
is somewhat larger-is Of "Piedra
Lumbra, New Mexico" and was painted
there a year or more ago. To those
who do not know this country it may
seem in color exaggerated, but it is
really very true-and it Is painted
in such wise that it carries conviction
It, too, has that inexplicable right
ness" derived, in this instance, per-
haps, by unity in treatment, with
emphasis placed precisely right. AL
though in a high key, this painting
is distinctly toneful-a combination
which is rare.
Edgar Nye, who in recent years has
been somewhat given to extreme SIM
plification, is represented by a work
which, while still in his characteristic
manner, has finer quality than any
which he has previously shown. It Is
entitled Wind Clouds" and while
somewhat dreary and dramatic, Is
excellent in composition and does re-
veal beauty in no small measure
through effects of light and color and
in artistic treatment.
Minor S. Jameson's "Taconic Hills, II
Harold A. Roney's Quarry" Helen F.
Collisions Snow Scene" and A. J.
Schram's winter Road all interpret
for seeing eyes. beauty in varying
aspects of nature-and after all, how
can an artist better fulfill his calling?
Mr.. Jameson has painted broad
landscape partly veiled with mist
very subtle and very lovely; Mr.. Roney
presents q symphony in browns pleas
ingly patterned; Miss Collision inter-
prets delightfully."- the effects Of sun
light on snow regardless Of design,
while Mr.. Schram presents, with ut
most realism, Winter scene which
epitomizes the convention Of snow In
the country.
In this connection, mention may
well be made of q painting by Eliza
beth e. Graves of Cape Cod House"
which, because Of its strength and
simplicity, deserves much more than
passing note. With great skill she
has painted the little white clapboard
house behind a screen Of tall trees,
in such wise that it takes its place
perfectly in the composition but at
the same time retains its individuality.

n YEW YORK, October 21-At-
M tracted by lucrative offers or
" given an opening when their
own superiors went elsewhere,
some 80 college foot ball coaches began
the current season with brand-new
Jobs as head man."
Today, with some already past the
half way mark of their first campaign
and Others just approaching it, only
three of the 30-odd starters have sur
vived in the elect-and select-set of
those whose teams are unbeaten and
united. Reading in the customary
order, they are Ossie Solem of Syra-
cuse, Hooks" Mylin of Lafayette and
George Sauer of New Hampshire.
The most startling about-face un-
doubtedly has been achieved at La
fayette, where the combination of My
Inns coaching and fine freshman
team of two years ago that's just hit
ting its stride has made the Leopards
change their spots and knock them
off their rivals.
The school that last year scored 26
points in nine games and won only

Saturday by whipping Georgetown. 1t

on Saturday it will meet the University
of ST. Louis in an intersectional game.
The Cardinals are due to arrive in

Among those accompanying the
squad was Fred Slant, a quiet but

Detroit last Friday. Due to general
mix-up in numbered jerseys, Slant
was identified as some one else.

had faded out of the c. U. picture
due to an appendicitis attack. Later

to the squad and has played we'll ever

squad were Capt Vic Sochon. Maurice

Odds Against Maryland.

poorest of the three. Despite their
record, the Pennsylvanians will be
definite underdogs against N. Y. u

this week by the return of several
cripples.
Syracuse, quick to absorb the Solem

shire, taking to the tactics taught by
Sauer, former Nebraska ace, will be
favorites against Maryland and Ver-
mont, respectively.
