BULLDOGS Tie
WITH FORSYTH
Hardin Turns Intercepted
Pass Into TdllY In
Third Period

The Hardin Bulldogs battled
to a 7 to 7 tie with a favored
Forsyth eleven on the Forsyth
gridiron last Friday afternoon.
Mysee, halfback for the Do
gies, was responsible for the first
score in the game, which took
place in the second period. The
Forsyth halfback returned a
punt % yards to Hardin's 20
yard stripe. Yardage lost on an
off-side penalty was regained
the next play by an off-tackle
plunge. and Virgin then later
aled to Mysee, who went over
for a touchdown. Campbell, full
back, carried the ball over for
the extra point.
The Bulldogs came back early
in the third period when Linn
intercepted a pass on the As
yard line and returned it to
the Dogies' 81. A pass from
Three Irons to Linn was good
for 10 yards, and Three Irons
made the remaining two yards
into scoring territory on an off
tackle play. He also made the
extra point in a similar man
ner.
In the fourth quarter, Hardin
threatened to tally again after
Koebbe blocked an ATTEMPTED
Forsyth punt on the 34-yard
Inc and recovered on the IA.
On the two-yard line, the Do
gies' forward wall stiffened, re-
pulsing the Bulldogs attack.
One of the most exciting mo-
ments of the game came on the
first play after the kickoff
following the Hardin score.
Forsyth was successful on a
sleeper play that carried the
ball 70 yards to the goal line,
but the ball was called back
because of offsides on both
elevenS.
The game was the last of the
season for the Bulldogs.

COURTS:
Labor Defeat

Painful to 81 corporations, individ-
uals and organizations was the SUI
preme courts decision upholding
justice department antitrust suit.
The decision held them liable to pros
ecution, charged with fixing milk
prices, controlling supply and sup
pressing competition in the Chicago
area. Most panied, however, was
labor. Reason: One defendant is
the milk wagon drivers union.
Thus is Assistant Attorney Gen.
eral Thurman Arnold freed to pros
ecute organized labor in his inves-
tigation of building trades, probe
which was opposed by A. F. of LIS
President William Green on the
ground that unions are exempted
from such antitrust prosecution by
the Clayton act.
But labor's fear goes deeper than
that. If the justice department is
upheld against labor unions in its
building trades conspiracy case, the
unions can be prosecuted in re-
straint of trade every time they call
a strike.

are many types of mushrooms that
are poisonous.
All of this brings US to what the
American Bar association is trying
to do. It brings to the front seat
efforts made by a special commit
tee Of the association by way Of get
ting legislation through congress to
fence in these boys and girls on pub
lie payrolls so that the rank and
file of citizens have a chance.
The special committee is headed
by Col. O. r. Mcclure, who lately
resigned as an attorney in the Cen
eral Accounting Office. Colonel Nc

ing, and he believes the disease Of
granting more and more power to
executive offices of the government

ment unless drastic medicine Is
given.
am not prepared to say that the
bill which Colonel Mcclure almost
single-handedly pressed before con-
gressional committees is the proper
corrective measure. There have
been loopholes found in it, plenty OF
them. There has been opposition to
it from among members Of the ma
tional lawyers group. Doubtless,
other weak spots will be found. But
it must not be said that the principle
of checking the vicious trend is
wrong; and it seems to be an OPP
perfume time for real work to be
done. The American Bar associa-
ton is big enough, its members have
brains enough, it's membership has
power enough, to force something
through congress. Whether it is the
Mcclure bill as it stands, modifica-
ton of that or a completely rewrit-
ten measure, the bar association had
better assert itself in the interest of
the public.

They even drove the invader from

There was no hope for negotiation,
nor did Finland expect to hold out
very long. Foreign Minister Vaino
Tanner appealed to the world for
effective help" as well as SYM
pathy. Later he tried to reopen
negotiations with Moscow through
the Swedish minister there, but only
a few hours earlier the Soviet had
made its own peace-with a puppet
democratic republic of Finland"
Finally, in desperation, Finland ap-
pealed to the League of Nations.
Embarrassment
For three years the frightened
league has 'played dead" whenever
a political question was preached.
Last spring Secretary General JOS
eph A. c. Avenol ignored Albania's
protest during the italian invasion,
and a recently scheduled meeting
to hear Poland's protest over her
Russian-German invasion was po-
litely called off for fear of embar-
RAISING the Kremlin. Reason: Rus
sia's Ivan Maisly is league presi-
dent.
This time the league had it's last
chance to retain international re-
spect. Secretary Avenol dispatched
the Finnish protest under pressure
from France and Britain, who saw
a chance Of forcing Russia to show
her hand. This hope was dashed
when Russia announced she would
not attend the meeting. Nor did any
observer expect the lesser neutral
nations to support either side in this
controversy.
Instead the peace seekers looked
to Italy, non-leaguer, and Japan,

EUen Lawyers Stunped at
Meaning of Many Documents

An exposition of all of the phases
of such a problem as government
rules and regulations is extremely
difficult. Comparatively few law
yers in Washington can understand
all of the intricate language and
purposes of the piles of printed
documents that emerge every day
from federal agencies, and these
lawyers, or many of them, have
devoted lives to constant study Of
such stuff. Imagine for yourself,
therefore, what fix you, unframed
in law, would be in if you attempted
to fight your own battles with an
arrogant, self-appointed interpreter
of federal policy.
One of the many reasons why !
am stressing the necessity for cor
rection of this condition at once is
that our government has expanded
SO rapidly in the last six years.
Where there were rules and regula-
tions affecting only business a few
years ago, there are now great vol
unes of rules and regulations af-
