SMOKE RINGS
Feud "A Brewin'
By SAM Raglan

Southern football for the past two years has made
a decided jump into the limelight and because this SAID
jumping has been performed in a number OF instances oy
northern players recruited by energetic southern coaches,
the northern colleges are becoming considerably 1rked.
So irked, in fact, that there is a rumor going the
rounds that after the present game contracts expire that
the schools from above the M. & D. Line are not going to
schedule any more games with colleges in what the sports
lads in the green plush rooms call the "colard belt"
