James COnneI, new president
of the Old Newsboys, could not
be reached for comment. II is
not known whether Connell of
fered La Joie the committee
Craftsmanship for this year. S con-
test.
However, there has been some
talk that the promotion of the
1916 game will be conducted un-
der a revised setup The new
plan is expected to be brought
up at the Old Newsboys' spring
meeting.
La Joi's resignation was not
entirely unexpected. In the past
his handling of the Goodfellows
games had come under criticism.
$4,000 Is TOPS
One of the points of criticism
was the fact that the Goodfellows
games so far have not been able
10 draw the large crowds expect
cd. Another complaint was that
La Joie delegated too much au-
thority to himself.
The prep classic twice has
drawn crowds of 10000, in 1941
and 1914. Last Falls contest,
held on the same day that Mich
igan played Ohio State at Ann
Dor, drew only 22,000, the
smallest turnout of any of the
six games held at Briggs stadium.
Similar games have attracted
$1,000 people in Cleveland, and
as many as 10000 in Chicago.
The Detroit Old Newsboys have
raised nearly 100000 in the eight
games. Proceeds go to the Good
fellows fund for needy children.

Ir per kalnus teviskes vaizda
tiesi ranka ir laimes prasai'-
zeri teviskes kruvinos zaizdos,
sunkias rankon jos kraujo lasai.
