THIS WEEK
nv MILTON BROWN, JTA
ROAKE CARTER AND
THE JEWS

For sheer sensatiOnalism, from
he Jewish standpoint, the week
ffOrds no more striking news
han the announcement by BOake
rarter, radio commentator and
ewspaper cOlumniSt, that he had
becOme converted to the biblical
Hebrew faith.
It is explained however that the
aith Mr.. Carter has adopted
differs from the orthodox and
eformed Jewish beliefs. The Bib
ical faith to which he converted
himself without benefit of clergy,
equires only strict observance of
Mosaic laws. Mr.. Carter, it is
aid, observes Saturday as the
Sabbath, completely divorcing
himself from any work on that
iay He also observes most of
he Jewish Holidays.
The cOlumnist explained sat he
lad tried the Episcopal Church
md later Christian Science, but
lad decided that hope for his soul
Ould be found only in the Hebrew
eligiOn. But this Hebrew religion
which he follows depends largely
IN mystic Interpretation of the
Bible, provided by a Palestine
hermit. According to this mystic
Interpretation, "Hitler is SatOn-
Germany is Assyria. The ten lost
ribes of Israel have not been lost.
They are. in the United States and
England"
Last week, H. V. Kaltenborn,
Ehe radio commentator, now visit
ng in England, described over the
Pir sect which has become active
England recently which is de-
handing Federal Union of Eng
and and the United States. They
Pase their arguments not on the
ordinary reasons but on mystic
Biblical grounds,
Such marginal elements as
nose represented by BOake Car
ger and this English sect have al
ways existed. Long before the
var, there was a group in Eng
and which asserted that the Brit
Sh were the ten lost tribes. They
raced the word British to He
preW-Brith Ish, that is, a man of
me Birth or Covenant.
The favorite theory of the mys-
pc minded as regards the lost
len tribes has been of course that
ney were the American Indians,
ana 1t must be admitted, that
mere were some things about the
nulanS which lent some plaus-
aOlllty for seeing a similarity be-
tween them and the ancient Is
eantes. The Indians were, like
tae Israelites, divided into tribes;
|neir religion was a simple but
very vague monotheism. They

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-Football is
as traditional as turkey on Thanks
giving Day and though the menu
today may be a little short of both
the flavor still is familiar.
Almost every section of the coun-
try was provided with at least one
tasty gridiron morsel.
In the East Penn ard Cornell
furnished the Ivy League entree with
battle expected to draw more than
$4,000 fans to Franklin Field at
Philadelphia. The long time foes
were rated about even. with Penn
fading after an early rush and the
Big Red coming strong at the close
of the season.
Colgate and Brown Collide.
Another top-notch tussle in this
section matched Colgate and Brown
at Providence at II am, while in
the afternoon City College of New
York and Brooklyn College were
paired in a game for the benefit of
the Red Cross. Bucknell met Frank
lin and Marshall and Albright took
on Muhlenberg.
In the South the principal en-
gagement was between Tulane and
Louisiana State. with 10000 fans
expected at Baton Rouge. l.. S. U.
beat Auburn, which beat Georgia,
which, etc, but Tulane was IA
vored nonetheless. Elsewhere be-
low the Dixon line William

the football coaches at yester-
days trustees meeting. Several
of his colleagues weren't too

the former S. M U. coach talked
them down with his explanations
of how much good football has
done for the pre-f1ight cadets.
The average weight of each
battalion of cadets is about 155
pounds he pointed out. And

over the benefits Of competitive

were a lot of college coaches who

who thought they ought to keep on
with football as long as possible.
Intramural Play Backed.
Coach "Anonymous" put the mega
tive position something like this:
you have transportation problems
concerning the players and the
public; if they draft the l8 and 10
year olds who form the backbone OF
your squad, what have you got left?
A bunch of misflts and technical
students who don't nave time for
football Most of the boys in the
armed reserves have been notified
that they will be called before long
Bells contention was that boys
don't necessarily have to be big,
brawny athletes to play against op-
ponents of equal size The athletic
training at the pre-fight schools is
all on a competitive basis he eX-
planned. That's what really gets
