LISTEN FOR THE VOICES
BY Colver
In this simple story of Concord's
great days, a narrative filled with
humor and poignancy and friendly
incident, Miss Colver has introduce
ed imaginary characters to mingle
with the illustrous men and women
who lived there in 1850. There is
Laura Shipman whose husband
finds his position at Mr.. Harris
academy difficult; their daughter,
Mary Olive, willing follower of the
vital Alcott girls; DR.. Glasgow and
his rebel daughter, Julia; Miss Har-
riette DAILY seamstress, and her all
ing father-and many others.
Little threads of fiction weave
them together with the great per-
sonalities of the day. Emerson,
kindly and majestic, doing his
Christmas rounds; Thoreau, rising
in the middle of the night to bring
relief to a wounded dog; the Alcott
family leaving by stage for Boston
with the sad farewells of the neigh
bors ringing in their ears. Haw-
thorne, Theodore Parker, Harriet
Beecher Stowe, James Russell Low

ly step in and out through these
delightful pages. Concord lives
again and the picture is simple,

a plan to scatter several Kinks

It's going to be interesting tc
watch these Junior college boys
in football action. First off they're
a conglommeration of boys who
each other only year OF
two ago in this precincts fields
Now they're one. And it's going

compared with several penalties
on Foley, wasn't jumping the gun.
!. On the pass plays, the passers,
both Cooper and Keldahl, were de-
liberate to the point of bringing
gasps from the spectators. But the
passes were true. +. Twice Coop
er, in the ticklish position behind
his own goal line, punted out de-
liberately when charging linemen
were almost swarming on him. ;.
That's a good point, and one not
SO outstanding in such new club.
Complete were q surprising
number of passes, and there
was q deal of accuracy In the
course those passes took. And
that adds up to the fact the
boys were able to command q
elaboration In that branch Of
their attack. Strangely,
though the defensive moved
quite well, when 1t was tested
most severe; 1t failed. On the
touchdown thrust Foley put the
ball over twice, one recalled on
penalty. The old goal line
stand, SO much q part Of foot
ball legend, completely dissOlv-
ed. But there were some
nice tackles. Botz, Beste, Arm
esOn, MOore-thOse that I saw
especialIy-did some nice work
in that respect. And there,n
be others. 49,.
Last week events ganged up on
the Harveymen. First off two hot
days just before the game melted
pounds off the players. Practices
were showed up to evening sessions
to avoid the intense, humid heat of
the daytime. .. 1t helped some.
And of course, it was not only
Sank Centre so affected but the en-
tire northwest. Last week, too,
Troness, boy who was coming
along well, turned twenty years and
was lost to the squad. Troness
stayed out of school to work
couple years and has passed the
age. 4. So things move
toward the game with Willmar, last
years West Central Conference
champs, and with a dozen or more
lettermen. >. And it
doesn't look too good. =.
Harvey is ready and willing to
use what he has with Willmar to-
morrow night. His best offense
will be a defense he has pointed
out. And his best defensive
weapon thus far has been the
punting. And it can be rea-
sonably expected that punting will
feature a good part of this game
with Willmar. Not that any other
hopes of attack will be entirely
because in the first
place that quashes what offensive
the lads might other
wise gain. It's simply vital
measure to use against a more
powerful team to hold in check an
otherwise expected high score. :.
That's not a defeatists attitude.
It's smart football. AS things
stand on paper, Willmar is over
and over again stronger than the
Sank Centre squad. On those
facts comes basis for the punting
part of the ball game. Harvey
knows even as you and you that
excessive punting, used as an Of
fensive weapon, is only temporiz-
ing. But it looks like tenn
porizing is the main dish. -.

IS Is Number For
Junior College Boys
Harvey's main trouble this year
is inexperience. To say the lads
are inexperienced Is no indictment;
but If one were to say they lacked
spirit that would be misstatement.
For they do have that. They're
willing and eager, and gang like
that can learn. Give them a couple
games under their belts; they'll
develop. Not into a stellar outfit
that moves with the precision Of
committing no mistakes. On the
face Of things they should lose
more than their share of games,
but they also should develop with
more sureness than they were able
to muster Friday evening against
inexperienced Foley. -.
Foley was just about six
points more sure Of their attack
than was Sank Centre. They
weren't any better than six
points because they too were
afflicted with that early season
Lack of finish. They lacked
punch.
On the other hand they were
held in check by certainly the most
powerful Observation-Disclosures too
for that matter as it turned out
weapon the local club possessed
Friday evening. -. That was Coop
er's punting. :. Short, stocky, Jim
has developed fastest of the new
arrivals. He seems smart enough
to handle the quarterback post, and
his punting ranks with any that
the local school has had in recent
years. He's a newcomer remember;
he's not too heavy; he's fast but
could be faster. But he has develop
ed a punt that couple times saved
what might have generated into a
Foley spark. Twice he stood
behind his own goal line and snak-
ed off punts with the Hollywood

smacks of Munich. ;. And unless
a club can muster up an offensive
that will utilize the advantage it
has gained on that punt-the cause
is sooner or later lost. And
that's what happened Friday. Turn
ed back a couple times by these
soaring kicks of Cooper, Foley fin
ally turned the trick by throwing
a running attack at the boys that
All of which doesn't detract
from the value of COOper's
punting in the least, but adds
up to something else. The
fact that that game under the
lights Friday evening was the
first varsity ball for each and
every one of those baclfield
men. And there is a prob
lem and cause in a nutshell -.
Just what their running attack
can develop Is hard to say. It just
didn't get a chance to function Fri
day. Backs were uncertain on their
running, interference formed slow

and precision, a natural concourse
to be expected of course. They
were so constantly on the defen-
sive, despite Foley's only mild
threatenings, that to relax a de-
fensive strain even in the offense
would have been more disastrous
probably. i. It's safe to say how

RUSSIA PUREST OF
ALL DEMOCRACIES

Editor, The Times: In your
issue of May 9 you made this
statement regarding Russia:
1T is government set up and
run by members of single
party. They alone have power.
They alone have rights"
Under the new constitution
adopted some three years ago,
all persons over Is years can
vote and hold any office they
can get elected to, regardless of
race, creed or political beliefs.
The Soviet congress, consist
ing of LAB representatives,
contains more than 800 who are
not Communists. Moreover. the
officials in the industries are
chosen directly by the people
who work in them regardless of
whether they belong to the Com
munist party or not. 1t is true
that the producing class is the
only class left in Russia and
this is as it should be, but it is
not true that Communists have
all the power and rights.
You are right in saying that
the United States is not a pure
democracy, nor is it even a pure
republic. The veto power of the
president and governors of
states is remnant of autocracy.
In the last two sessions of the
legislature. Gov. Martin waited
until it had adjourned and then
vetoed some of the legislation.
The people have no remedy for
such a practice. Is there any
thing democratic about that?
Such things do not happen in
Russia which is the purest de-
mocracy on earth.
WEBSTER ROGERS.
