made to "that person, group or in

soil, forests and other vegetation,
waters and wildlife. DR.. Bennett
is a veteran of nearly 48 years
service in the Agriculture Depart
ment and is one of the worlds
most distinguished conservation
lists.
The muddy waters of the Po-
tomac and its tributaries show
how important conservation has
become. Annually. all over this
country, literally millions of tons
of precious topsoil are washed
away because of improper soil
conservation. Soil erosion drives
game from farms. watersheds and
larger areas. Fish, waterfowl and
fur-bearing game have disap-
peared from countless places be-
cause the streams and lakes have
been polluted.
There is tremendous job ahead
to be done by men such as Mike
Hudoba and DR.. Bennett and
thousands of others who devote
their lives to this work. Progress
has been slow, and hard work has
mostly been their reward. But
gradually the consciousness of
their efforts is being borne upon
the public mind, together with
an awareness of the benefits and
the dangers. Let US help them
wherever and whenever we can.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j.. April
Fabulous Jim Thorpe. who
during the past year has been
named the greatest football player
and the greatest male athlete Of
the age. completed his grand slam
of honors today by being chosen
on the all-time All-America foot
ball team.
The big Sac and Fox Indian was
an almost unanimous choice for
one of the halfback positions, as
was his teammate in the dream
hackfield. Red Grange Of Illinois.
Thorpe. who played his collegiate
football at Carlisle Institute, got
7o2 points. two fewer than Grange,
in the nationwide Associated
Press poll based on 10 points for
a f1rst-team vote, i've for second
and two for third.
It now seems to be q question of
which Of these two in1mortals who
were far out ahead Ia the voting.
will be the first to gain o perma-
nent niche in the National Foot
ball Hall of Fame.
Three all-time teams were
picked in the poll by the AP in
conjunction with the Hall of Fame.
Players honored on the teams are
nominated for consideration by the
honors court, which will make the
final selections for the S. million
shrine planned at Rutgers Uni
versity here. :
1t was at Rutgers that the first
game of intercollegiate football
was played BETWEEN Rutgers and
Princeton in 1869.
1t was 80 years later that
Thorpe, who will be SO in May,
reported to Coach Glenn s. (Pop)
Warner at Carlile, Pa. After tear
ing up Warmers varsity as scrub
in the scrimmages, he was pro-
NOTED to the first team-perhapS
as a precautionary measure as
much as anything else.
Runner, kicker and passer, he
became an immediate sensation.
In his peak years-1911 and 1912
he carried 1876 pounds of solid
muscle on 6-foot. 1-inch frame.
Doubtless Thorpe could have
attained even greater football
heights had he so chosen. A per-
feet athlete, he was inclined to be
indolent, and other sports-track
and baseball particularly-drew
much of his attention.
Thorpe's exploits in track
matched those on the football
field. In the 1912 Olympics at
Stockholm, the big Indian won
both the decathlon and pentath-
lon. But his Olympic medals were
taken from him later when ack-
nowledged he had played profess
sional baseball before 1912.
Thorpe gave his first great foot
ball performance in 1908 when he
kicked three field goals to beat
Penn State. 1875. and ran so yards
to tie Pennsylvania, 6-6. But 1t
was not until 1911 that he made

Thorpe had dropped out of Car

only under the insistent coaxing
of Warner.
One of the Indians greatest
games was the 1911 battle between
Carlisle and Harvard. Thorpe en-

bandaged from the battering he
had taken from Pittsburgh and
Penn players IN earlier contests,
Both to confuse Harvard and
protect his ace. Warner ordered
Thorpe to let others carry the ball

was all right but in the last half
Thorpe saw the game going
