Alabama Tests Tulane
In Southeastern's
Grid Feature
Green Wave Rated Close
To Vols, Fearful Of
Tides Jinx
BY KENNETH GREGORY.

NEW ORLEANS, La. Nov. 6 tP-
The Southeastern Conference today
had two football schools of thought
one that set up Tennessee as the
best machine in the league and the
other that challenged any talk of
the Volunteers having superiority
over Tulane's Green Wave.
These two teams, ranked high in
early forecasts, have more than
lived up to eXpecta tions. The only
drawback to comparison is that they
don't meet one another.
Tennessee's Volunteers have
breezed through six contests unde-
feated, united and unscored on and
have a victory string of 10 straight.
Tulane is undefeated, but was tied
by North Carolina's fine club.
Alabama Game Criterion.
The first step in comparison be-
tween these Southeastern Confer
ence stalwarts comes this week. Ten
nessee conquered Alabama's Grim
son Tide, 81 to 0, without being
pressed. Alabama is the foe Satur-
day OF Tulane, which will have the
advantage of a weeks rest. Com
paratlve scores mean little. but in
this connection there will be food
for argument
Tulanes clash with Alabama in
New Orleans, where record South
ern crowd is expected, headlines a
program of five inter conference
games, one intersectional fray and
two smaller get-togethers.
A year ago Tulane was favored to
take Alabama, but the Crimson Tide
throttled everything Tulane offered
and won by field goal. Tulane will
be an ,odds-on favorite since Ala
bama was taken easily by Ten
nessee and was deadlocked, II,

furnished fireworks aplenty. Geor-
gia Tech played two strong delega-
tions in Notre Dame and Duke, lost

AS the titular race moves into the
final stages, Tennessee is the lone
undefeated and united team in the
ranks. Tulane and Georgia Tech
are undefeated in conference COM
bat. Kentucky has won two and
has only profitable tie with Ala

WHAT to EAT and WHY

fatigue. So it is unwise to sit down
to a large meal when exhausted
from too much physical or mental
work. A brief rest before eating
will put the body in much better
shape to receive and assimilate
the food.
Then, if the meal is served in
pleasant. surroundings, and If the
food is fiavorful and well cooked,
the chances are that 1t will be di-
gested satisfactorily by all normal
individuals.
Be tranquil at Mealiimes
In view of the fact that tran
guilty Of mind is essential to the
proper utilization Of food, home
makers should remember never
to discuss unpleasant subjects at
meal times. Don't nag the chill
dren about eating, or choose that
time to discuss their lapses from
discipline. Don't talk about
finances or take up real or fancied
grievances with your husband. Let
such matters wait until the meal
has been digested.
If these suggestions were more
generally followed, it is almost
certain that we would hear much
less conversation about foods that
cause distress, much more whole
some talk about the pleasures OF
the table.

what it may be advisable for him
to avoid.
But it is a grave mistake for
one person to warn another
against any food or combination
Of foods on the ground that it will
cause digestive distress. For the
truth Of the matter is that under
proper conditions, a normal,
healthy person should have no diff
ficulty in digesting almost any
food that has a place in the we'll
balanced diet.
Food Dislikes Often Unfounded
I once met a woman who told
me that her contented-looking hus-
band could, and did, eat most ev-
erything 'cept horseshoes. Menu
planning was simple for. her! And
how different from the problems
of the home-maker who must try
to reconcile her menus, both with
the food dislikes of various mem
bers of the family, and with the
foods that they declare they can't
eat, for fear of digestive distress.
IT is true, of course, that indi-
viduals differ greatly, and occa-
sionally food that can and should
be eaten regularly by most peo-
pie, will cause distress in an in
dividual case. But that is no in
dication that the food will have
the same effect on another per-
son, and it is misleading either to
proffer or accept advice of this ma
ture from friends.
It may be that the victim has
an allergy to the food in question
that he reacts to it differently
than the majority of people. But
there is also the possibility that
the prejudice exists because of
some previous distress, caused,
not by the food itself, but by the
circumstances under which it was
eaten.
Perhaps a clearer understand
ing of some of the mental and
physiological factors influencing
digestion would dispel many OF
the bugaboos that cause people to
avoid various, wholesome foods
and food combinations, and to
warn others against them.
Emotions Influence Digestion
Scientists have established that
the stomach is capable of reacting
to almost every emotion and SEN
sation that is experienced by men
and women. Thus, how you eat
becomes quite as important as
what you eat. And any food or
combination of foods consumed
when you are tired, worried or
angry, may cause acute distress,
whereas the same food, when eat.
en- at another time, may be d.
gested without the slightest dis
turbance.
This indicates the folly of jump
ing to the conclusion that you
can't eat this or that, and shows
that one is scarcely justified in
warning friends or relatives to
avoid certain articles of diet.
There is a large amount of evil
dence that fear, anger or anxiety
have the effect Of diminishing the
gastric secretions, and further, of
arresting or slowing down the
movement of the intestines.
If food is eaten under these con-

ditions, it may remain stagnant
in the alimentary canal, with the
subsequent formation of gases and
decomposition products. But in
stead of recognizing the true cause
Of the trouble, many people erro-
neously blame the food itself!
Medical men have frequently
noticed that people often develop
gastric disturbances when they
suffer financial reverses, and con-
tinue to suffer from them until
their financial condition improves

Against this background Trust
Buster Thurman Arnold popped
new issue: In District of Columbia
federal court the justice department
filed complaints charging the Asso-

236 individual roads with violating
the Sherman act. The charge: That
member roads refused to cooperate
with motor carriers in hauling
freight and passengers.
Cause for action was an A. A. r.
resolution Of June Is, 1887, which
declared public interest would be
served ''if railroads refrained from
establishing with motor carriers
through routes or joint rates or
fares which invade territory not
served by such railroad and which
is already served by one or more
other railroads"
In Washington, A. r. RS, Presi-
dent j. J. Pelley welcomed the
action in order that there may be
once and for all determined
to what extent the railroads are per-
mitted to declare sound poll
cies consistent with the public in
