Army today. Just what Frank bases ms OPINION on we
don't know. But from where we sit 1t looks IKE AIN
will continue their winning streak, So we choose Army
to sink the Quakers.
Taking a quick look at the schedules and without
thinking twice my selections for the games today are:
Duke Over South Carolina. The Gamecocks hold
i. slioht statistical edge over the Blue Devils. But
Duke is on the upward swing.
Carolina to defeat Wake Forest. This will be a
tough game, but the Tar Heels are rated the better
team.
Notre Dame to run rough shod over Northwestern.
Georgia and Charlie Trippi will trip Auburn.
Georgia Tech to cop a close one from tulane.
Tennessee to defeat Boston College.
Illinois over Ohio State.
Oklahoma over Missouri.
UCLA to trample Montana.
Penn State VS.. Navy. The Middies will take this
one.
Alabama over Vanderbilt.

said. exists in Great Britain and eve
backward" Spain and India.
Would Serve Six General Purposes
Lewis said he opposed the idea OF
joint administration Of the fund by
the union, management and govern
ment because it would simply become
another bureaucratic governmental
agency with the overhead eating up
a large part Of the revenue. clogged
with red tape, and with its awards
delayed after the manner of other gov
ernmental agencies"
1T is no business of the operators
to supervise this fund.-" he asserted.
The coal industry mangles these peo-
pie and the UNIV wants the right to
alleviate their agony and distress"
Assuring honest administration of the
fund. Lewis pointed out that the UNIV
would be constantly on trial before
the councils Of industry and the pub
lie at large" as to its handling.
Operators May Seek Price Increases
The operators will probably be able
to cite the welfare fund as an in
creased cost and petition for a price
increase under the October. 1912 sta.
bilizatiDn act which recognizes insur-
ance and pension funds as legitimate
costs. Economic Sterilization Director
Chester Bowles told a press confer
ence May IA that while coal operators
had been given no promises Of price
increases, they were undoubtedly ia.
miliar with the government formula
which assured them a 15c a ton profit.
AS Lewis put his welfare proposal
before the operators, majority Of the
nations 600, 900 soft coal diggers were
repeatedly back at work under a two.

to ease the fuel shortage.
