CARE IN FIRST AID

Many victims injured in automobile
and other accidents are further hurt and
often put beyond the reach of medical or
surgical aid through ignorant and care
less handling by persons at the scene, ac-
cording to DIR. B. p Stookey of New York,
who has seen many such cases. He warns !:
Never lift the head of an injured
can move his legs or hands. If he cannot
move his hands his neck is broken. If he
cannot move his legs, his back is broken.
I'm both cases the spinal cord is in
jured. If you left his head to give him a
drink of water, or if you fold him up to
carry him, you inevitably grind the in
iured spinal cord between parts of the
broken vertebrae and destroy any useful
remnant of the cord which may have es-
capped injury in the original accident"
In such cases it is best to roll the vic
tim gently onto blanket and carry him
face downward. If no blanket is avail
able he should be carried so as to avoid
fitting the head forward The idea is to
keep the back and neck straight, instead
of doubled up, until physician can make
an examination.
When the person is unconscious, he
should be handled the same way, as pre-
caution against further damaging a pos
sibly broken neck or back. An injured
person should be handled gently in all
cases, without too much haste

With college football singing its
swan song over the weekend, pro-

Milwaukee, to be followed next
week by the major league con-

Chicago and Milwaukee, where
they will nose around to see what
can be done about the local 1888

pause in Chicago before going to
Milwaukee.
There early departure gives

has been going the rounds since

Collectively, more students and
alumni are drinking at the nations

consumption is less than five years

Here are a few other facts
Wilson B. Heller, statistician, has

naires sent to 222 co-educational
institutions:
Goods have schooled themselves
in controlled drinking"
Fewer spectators are getting
intoxicated.
College lads are inbibing in q
more gentlemanly manner.
Most stadium drunks are neither
alumni nor students.
Janitors at only four stadia
had to cart off college drunkS this
year after the crowds had gone.
An average of four drunks per

The team will continue timber

Then they'll get down to serious

Down in the deep South, the
Crimson Tide of Alabama, unde-
feated and united in season that
must be accepted as testing, is just
as willin' as Barkis to make a
fifth trip to Pasadena. OF the lead
ing teams, Alabama has the clean
est record.
The crash Of cymbals rings
loudly from Rose Hill in Fordham
today as the Maroon Rams await
the summons to action with the
California Bears. The boys up
there were cheated out Of a trip
last year when New York Univer-
sity beat them. But the Violets
were beaten this year, and beaten
convincingly. The cool aloofness
Of Pitt may or may not be gen.
uine. Alabama makes no pre-
tense. The Tide will play Pitt in
the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans
if the Panther is not invited to
the coast, and will accept an invi-
tation to visit New Orleans.
LEAN TO PITT
Regardless of the scoreleSs tie
between the Golden Panther and
the Maroon Ram, football men
throughout the land lean strongly
to Pitt in naming the best team
in the East.
If Pitt and Alabama meet in
the Sugar Bowl, California will
have a lot of trouble convincing
folks that the Rose Bowl spec.
tacle is the colossal, stupendous,
magnificent production" that the
coast publicizers would have the
rest of the land believe. The win.

and dethroned in the flight Of
seasons. The lure of the Army
Navy game sweeps on, growing in
appeal with each successive year.
No greater testimonial to the ap-
peal of a football game could be
given than the fact that nearly
100000 spectators sat through the
driving rain and enveloping fog
on Saturday to see the service
teams wage their war.
There was not a capacity crowd

EFFORTS FUTILE
The surprise in that game was
not that Army won, but that Navy
was so utterly futile in its efforts.
The Blue and Gold won only one
game since it defeated Virginia on
October 9. That lone triumph
was scored over Columbia, which
