BOOST BOYD, TOO

An Eastern win would not hurt
Eastern's mentor, Artie Boyd, in
Cidentally. This is Artie'S second
year as football coach at. the
Northeast school. Last year he
did not get his boys clicking until
the series was almost over. This
season he's had 'em going on all
cylinders from the start. Now the
championship is the most impor-
tant event on the calendar.
The punting, passing and ball
carrying of Jack Belote will be
Techs big threat today. To coun-
ter, Eastern will have its polished
pair, Kemp and KidWell, to lead
its attack. On the whole, it should
be quite a football game, the best

OTHERS HELP

Others who have helped are Dick
Wade and Jack Kearney, capable
ends; Paul Kober and AL Dickin-
son, tackles and Hal Speith, speedy
halfback.
The title, if Eastern grabs it this
year, will be the schools first in
40 campaigns. The Parkers have
come close in recent seasons, but
always there was that something
that happened to keep the coveted
crown away.
Tech, on the other had, has
captured the championship count
less times. The record runs up to
nine, in fact, in the last IA years,
with two ties included to boot.
The Trainers copped for the ninth
time in 1886.
A newcomer in coaching ranks
to high school football will be on
the Tech bench today. He is

to be petrified man, ten and half feet
tall.
The giant was a fraud, being rude
statue of man, carved out Of gypsum in
Iowa. and buried BY a practical joker in
the bed of acreek near Cardiff, hamlet
near Syracuse, n. Y The joker then had
the statue discovered. Z and spread the
news of the find far and wide. That was
in October, 1869
Later it was exhibited around the
country as 'petrified man." and a good
many scientific men were inclined to be-
lieve it to be genuine until Yale profes-
sor made an examination and exposed the
fake.
While the giant was in popular
favor and drawing large crowds, Barnum
tried TO buy it to add to his collection of
circus side-show attractions. When the
owner named price thought too high,
Barnum proceeded to have giant of his
own made. This imitation of fake-a
sort of double fake-was successfully ex-
hibited by Barnum as the Cardiff Giant, in
America and abroad, for aeveral years.
The original giant is getting some
fresh publicity just now, owing to the fact
that the Chamber of Commerce of SYRIA
cuse is trying to have it brought back to
that city from Iowa, where it has been
resting in obscurity for several decades.
So great was the sensation created by the
giant hoax that the statue has come to
have certain historic value.

IMITATION AND THE BUDGET

The feeling is growing among out
standing authorize that if the threat of
initiation is to be eliminated, the Federal
budget must be balanced
Signs of initiation have already APP
peared in boom conditions that, though
they may appear temporarily beneficial
actually imperil sound recovery. There
can be no stability SO long as our fiscal
policy is in state of confusion.
Initiation hits hardest at persons of
moderate means-persona with fixed
salaries and wages, or fixed returns from
investments. Under the inflationary pro-
cess, costs always rise far more rapidly
than income-as the most extreme modern
instance, the postwar German initiation,
so tragically demonstrated. 1t is the tens
of millions of Ordinary" citizens who
have the most to gain from a balanced
budget, and a sane fiscal program.

quency with which desperate criminals are
allowed to escape from prison to resume
their careers of murder and robbery, after
great effort and expense have been incur
red to place them behind the bars.
That so many do escape is due prin-
cipally to the stupidity of prison officials,
although inadequate Jail equipment is a
contributing factor. The federal govern
ment is endeavoring to remedy the latter
defect by u~ing tool-proOf steel in the con-
struction of new cells.
The new federal penitentiary at
Lewisburg, Pa, has cells made of such
steel, which can not be cut by any tool
which it would be possible to smuggle into
the prison. Tools which would easily cut
through ordinary steel leave the new bars
barely scratched. Hacksaws and files are
rendered useless after few strokes, acids
are futile, and even a metal lathe makes
little impression on the resistant bars

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 15-(UP) -"On to Harvard" was the cry which rang today through New Ha- ven as the undefeated Yale univer- sity football team, glorying in its 26-0 ducking of Princeton, opened preparations for the traditional last game of the season with the Cambridge eleven.
 The Harvard game will be the first for the Ellis away from the Bowl this season. Confidence was high in the Yale camp for crush ing victory Saturday which would polish off high-successful cam paign.
 Capt. Clint Frank was the hero of the weekend game against Princeton. He scored each of the four touchdowns. one of them on a slippery 80-yard sprint on the first Yale play of the game. This is the story:
 Princeton kicked off, Yale lined up. Frank ploWed off-tackle, and with excellent interference. was off for the distant goal-line. He made 1t standing up, goodly number of the 35,000 spectators were not even seated.
 In the same first period, Prince ton lost the ball on downs on its own IS. It was only a matter of seconds before the ball was ad- vanced over the goal-line by Mir. Frank.
 Then, in the third period. Frank faked to Hesberg lunged through left guard, found no restraining hand, and galloped 52 yards to his third touchdown.
 A few minutes later, Yale re- covered Tiger tumble on the wis., itor's 30. Nine plays later the ball was over the line. Frank took 1t there with left-tackle plunge of five yards.
