A STATE OF TENSION has
gripped the Indiana campus as
the Hoosiers have their first
chance of winning the first
western Conference football
championship in Al years OF
competition.
Nearly half a century has
passed and the Hoosiers are still
trying after many years of frus-
tration. A large school with a
tremendous following, 1t has
constantly failed in its ambition
to become a football power.
Only five times in the past Al
years have the Hoosiers won
more conference games than
they have lost. Last year they
succeeded In wi inn ing four
games, one an upset of Michi-
gan.
Three Of these four times oc-
cured during the IL year coach
ing tenure Of 30 McMillin. No
one expected McMillin to field
such IN excellent team this fall
but to date only one tie has
marred his record.
Winning that oaken Bucket
will be q big thing tomorrow but
this year the Hoosiers are gun
ming for an even bigger prize,
the Western Conference crown.

FEBRUARY IS
 A MONTH OF
 BROTHERHOOD

February is Brotherhood Month in the churches of the United States.
 While every month in the church is Brotherhood Month, February is set aside as the time to emphasize this great Christian fact. The fact that we have one God and Father of us all and in the sight of God, we, the people of the earth are one family, one brotherhood.
 Many things that are happen ing in the world today tend to help us keep faith in brother hood.
 Take for example the incident of the four chaplains who gave their lives for the men on the transport SS. Dorchester that torpedoed off Greenland in Feb ruary, 1943.
 Two of these chaplains were protestant, one Catholic, and one a Jew. There were no questions asked about their faith or the faith of the men to which they gave their life-jackets.
 According to affidavits of the Dorchester survivors, the four chaplains went among troops on the torpedoed transport calming

American Weekly readers of decade

her pet skunk on leash and carry

her bull snake, draped affectionately
around her neck.
They also saw her bathing with
the snakes and breakfasting with a
skunk and with Trix, her monkey,
