SIMILAR TO BASEBALL
GAS 1t is now, the short season
limits the extent to which pro
football can grow. It is only
seasonal employment for the
players, regardless Of salaries.
And, too, we are limited to IL
games to draw from. If extended
into a SiX-month program, well
be on a scale similar to baseball,
where the players generally con-
slider the other six months Of the

According to George Marshall
"Rooney's plan has great merit.
The season now is too short.
Naturally the colleges are ahndi.
capped from playing a longer
schedule because Of the aca-
demic situation. Pro football
should easily become q six
month sport and know that
the fans will support the
games"
MEETING IN FEBRUARY
Two-thirds majority can swing
pro football to an extended
schedule at the meeting In Chi

that there would be no dissenting
votes from any Of the club mem

Whether or not the project will
be passed for the 1939-40 season
to be seen.

Since 1899, the Philippines has

GREATEST QUAKE IN l64s
Greatest of all was the Earth

About 600 persons were killed

One chronicler recorded that in
provincial areas "whole native vii

buried by landslides or sunk un.

on St. Andrews day, Nov. 80.

"The old time popular idea of
