New York, oct. II CU.P) -
Let's gather up the pieces carefully

words over the dead hopes of foot
ball teams that got caught in the

Please omit flowers. BY all means
omit roses If you want to sympa-
thize with Alabama, Columbia,
Pennsylvania and Cornell who were
unbeaten until the hurricane hit
them and were having lovely dreams
Of bowl filled with roses In Pasa-
dena on New Years Day.
Not since the time when the tor
toise beat the hare has there been
day Of so much surprise. Weak
teams rose up and licked strong
ones; little fellows knocked of big
guys; last-minute touchdowns

Today the national picture is
clearer with these teams gobbling up
all the space in the foreground:
Far West - California which
marched on with q decisive, 20 to Z
victory over a strong U. G. l.. A. out
fit.
Midwest - Minnesota, still pant
ing from that narrow victory over
Michigan by the heart-stopping
score Of Z to 6.
South Tennessee, which ram
med the doubts down the threats Of
the doubters with a brilliant 1870
victory over an Alabama team that
looked like a safe bet for an unde-
feated season.
Southwest Texas Christian,
which seems to be able to turn its
power on and of as the occasion de-

East Pittsburgh, first, and
Dartmouth, second. Saturday was
the day that Pitt really was sup
posed to be tested by sturdy Wis

did was win, 26 to 6; they are say

Teams that will be mad enough to
commit murder, and probably will,
for ten rest Of the season-Alabama

Biggest disappointments of the

Tough luck team of the year -

Lewis Can Make Weight
Easily, Says Trainer

man weight yesterday tipped the
scales Just under 1T when the long
workout was concluded.
Nearly 400 fight faithfuls watched
Lewis belt three sparmates all over
the ring in his Sunday session. In
order to get to New Haven early,
Lewis moved up his program and
worked with George Webb and
Freddie Wilson this morning.
Reports that Lewis would fight no
more as a light heavy but would go
after the heavyweight title were
scoffed at by his camp followers.
Lewis will fight as q lightheavy,
Frank Sutton, his trainer, said HE
can make the weight with ease and
can put 1t on for the heavies. Wen

bout with Gamer"
ON EDGE
New Haven, Oct. 17.-Al. Gamer,
New Ravens challenger for the
lightheavyweight crown, drew the
largest crowd in history to his train
ing session in the Elm City Gym
yesterday. Working against James
j. Johnston, heavyweight, and Tiger
Roy Williams, Gamer delighted the
spectators by walloping his spar
mates at will and showing more
fight than at any time in the last
year.
Trained down fine and in the best
shape of his life now, Gamer will
alternate roadwork and long gym
drills during the remainder of the
week.
II don't want him to weight any
less, "his manager. AL Mole, said.
Hes almost ready now. Gamer
wants that title and, believe me,
we're going to win 1t"
Gamer will see his opponent, John
Henry Lewis, briefly tomorrow.
Lewis will work out in the New
Haven Arena and Manager Male

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
IN THE NATURE OF GOVERNMENT

Get this into your heaus, you Democrats (and
Republieans): ...-
It is the tendency and habit of. all governments,
national state, county, city, village, to increase
their power, to enlarge themselves to add to their
navrolls to take over of the activities, the
liberties the privileges of the citizens.
In the United States the original. conception of
Government was simple, stripped down government,
Mr. Jefferson was suspicious of all government, but
at the head of government he was not always con-
sistent with his professions.
The last century government in the United States
has been continually making itself more powerful
at the expense of the people This was central and
dominant in Republican party policy. Government,
CONGRESS and the executives became the agents OF
the gentry composing its owners and directors
uorco ineffective tarffic and other laws of special
privilege.
The present-day Democratic party has turned
Penublican but has far outrun the Republican
methods No longer is there a pretense of "Jeffer-
son;an SIMPLICITY" limited government "strict con-
struction." among the ruling Democrats-and the
Democrats in office now are rulers.
Re+vaen Hitlerism and Rooseveltsm the differ
once IS immense, but it is difference in degree
not in essence Hitlerism and Rooseveitism are IN
perfect agreement that the national state should
bo s,nrame and that there are no rights of the in
d;vidnaI which government should not reduce or
DESTROY at will for the good of the state.
In Russia, Italy, Germany the United Ctates
governments alike claim to be humanitarian, all OF
them claim guardianship of the people whether Ia
borers, farmers, capitalists
No man who is not at all times suspicious of
government however at the moment 1t may seem
good, is a Decentralization News and Cou-
rier.

FIE ON FLY!

A right significant exchange took place in the
hearing of the IVA case before the supreme court.
TWAS general counsel, James Lawrence Fly, was
arguing the constitutonality of the whole enter
prise and stressing particularly the point that cleo
trio power was produced only in connection with
the Improvement of navigation and the control OF
destructive floods" which are admitted Federal
provinces Justice Butler broke in to ask Fly what
he considered the crucial question in the case, and
the lawyer replied:
Whether or not these dams in their functions
serve constitutional purpose !
LET us assume that they do not" Butler, D.,
persisted "Does that lose your case?" .....
1--WE would lose case assuming that the COM
panies (utiities) have right to sue" Mr.. Fly
conceded.
r. Everybody knows, probably Mr.. Fly best of all,
that flood control and navigation are only second
ary IVA functions, that they are the cart whereas
the horse is power production. Everybody knows
that TWAS power is not generated incidental TO
flood control and navigation; that, on the contrary
flood control and navigation could have been
brought about for a fractin of TWAS cost.
Yet IVA, fearful that outright Federal power
production might be unconstitutional, attempts to
persuade the Supreme Court thatin the process of
improving navigation and controlling floods it sud-
denly found electricity being generated in such
Quantities that it would have been crime to have

The Farleys want the Corcorans

which group should now be tossed

In this the Farleys are support

willing to compromise with con-
servatives who advised him to 60
slow. New Deal candidates have
been licked and New Deal coun-
sellers should be relegated to OBJ
security. The New Dealers said so
many bad things about other
Democratic candidates that people
began to believe all Democratic
candidates were sour. It's Farley
who has the real Democratic ma
chine and the President can't
function without him. Now is the
time for Roosevelt to pull in his
horns and take counsel from con-
servatives whose advice he
spurned, in order that Democrats
may appear as harmonious band
of brothers against the Republic
cans in 1910. Farley i,as shown

But the Corcorans, long before

Farley's Democratic machinery
just doesn't function up north
and the party suffered the heav-
lest part OF its defeat on "gcod

lied himself in 193b--in alliances
which have been frozen ever
since. Harmful WPA scandals
were created not by Hopkins, but
by Democratic machines allied
with Farley and Democratic SEN

Both these arguments have their
thin spots. Roosevelt is certain to
heed some of the elections "Go

"go slow" with the Corcorans or
slower with the Farleys is a ques-
ton which bothers both the Far
leys and the Corcorans.

HOT PUPPY ON TUMMY

nv VI NtN
"What are you going to dO?'
asked a woman anXiously one
night as her husband began to
pile out of bed with an air of de-
termination.
"Pm going to get a fat, hot
puppy and put him on my stom-
ach," was the startling reply.
"What in the world are you
talking aboutw calculated the
wife, alarmed for her mates san
ity.
"Well, it's this way" explained
the husband as he sat down on the
edge of the bed: "In olden times
there was the belief-later re-
garded as superstition - that a
puppy placed on the stomach of
a person suffering from indiges-
ton would relieve the trouble.
But there was more truth than
superstition in that idea, for the
warmth of the puppy's body slim
ulated the workings of the stom-
ach to greater activity. The mod
ern version of fat, hot puppy is
fat, hot water bottle. And
that's what Pm going to get.
Soon the husband was in bed
with a hot water bottle on his
stomach, and not long after was
sound asleep.
