flow to urow Mid. If only through my heart there flows A tide of spring, blue days and gold, To match the gray of winter snow* That gather when the year Is old— A breath from morning that I knew I Before the twilight's purple thrust f Across the h.lls when night is due 1 And fields are faint with starry dust. What if the drifting years slip by In grim parade ulong time’s chart, Or ghosts of winter blur the sky If April lingers in the heart? If one can march through fog and haze To see the sunlight on the hill And feel through winter’s shadowed days ytfat spring Is calling to him still? Though age may come in with the tide Where thinning hair, perhaps, is gray, Toung Apr.l whistles at my side, A careless vagabond at play; I'll take him with me for a mate And make him share the growing load Until we pass the final gate That opens on another road. Once again It is just as well to call attention to the fact that a football error or mistake on the field, even though It loses the game, is no sin that calls for eternal damnation. Football is still just a game, played for the health, recreation and physi cal upbuilding of the student. It is not a matter of life or death, honor or dishonor, whqie the fate of civili zation is to rest upon any final score. Hero is one game where you can be certain that each one is giving about 100 per cent of what he has 100 per cent of the time. And such mistakes as occur usually come from an over eagerness to make good. We recall again the story of a veteran, long out of harness, who was criticizing the judgment of a certain quarterback. “Well,” re marked a more observing friend, •what play would you call now In this position on tho field?" The vet -eran at last announced his decision, g But in the meanwhile three or four plays had been run off. It’s much simpler to be right, clear-headed on the sidelines when you haven't been thrown on your neck and can take all the time you need. A Notre Dame Team. Thero is usually one thing about a Notre Dame team. It is apparently soaked wtih football intuition and footbalt alertness. Each man seems to know exactly what he has to do and why he haB to do it. no mqtter what the situation. It is the most all-round mentally and physically alert aggregation that the observer sees in action. There Is style and smartness, as well as speed and power. There Is always dash and zip beyond any machine-like method. The Army Test. Yale will enter November a strong er looking organization than either Harvard or Princeton. In fact, un less the two latter hit a faster pace, it may be that Yale will find the Army harder to beat than the Blue’s two ancient rivals. Only a first-class football array Is going to nip the Army on Saturday. It will show \ better stuff than the team which fell \jjt-fore Knute Rockne’s Brilliant at tack nearly three weeks ago. / Yale and the Army always put on a Pwoung war of dash and vivid color and this next meeting should be one of the features of the entire lot. Great Second Basemen. For all-around defensive and offen sive skill, team value and all the Lonesome Polo Pony Runs Away, Breaks Neek New York, Oct. 30.—Homesick for Ilia old stall, Spaghetti, star polo pony, committed suicide today at the Mitchel field army reservation. Spaghetti, owned by Major Terry Allen, and rlden in the recent inter-, national military championship matches between American and British teams, had ben turned out of his regular quarters to make room for the string brought by the invading players. Today, while being exercised b/ a groom, the pony broke away and raced toward his old stable, lie collided head-on with a Wire fence and died a few moments later of a broken neck. Major Allen was said to have re fused an offer of 35,000 for the pony recently. Bluffs Iowa Alumni to Have Special Train Council Bluffs alumni of the Uni versity of Iowa will be well repre sented at the Towa-Mlchlgan game In Iowa City this coming Saturday. _ Sixty prominent people of the Bluffs Hrtll make the Jrlp on the football Mqieclal to cheer the Old Cold eleven Boa to victory over the formidable f Michigan aggregation. The special will leave Council Bluffs at 5:30 Saturday morning, ar riving in Iowa City at 1:50. The re turn trip will be started at 11:55 Sat urday evening. The special will car ry two compartment cars and one sleeper. Arrangements are being made to carry a diner to and from the scene of battle. Local Iowa fans firmly believe that Iowa has an even chance for victory aver the grea( Yost team, and will oack the Old Gold to the limit. Villa to Fight Tremaine. B.v International Nr»» Servioe. New York, Oct. 30.—It was an nounced today that Pancho Villa, vorld flyweight champion, and Carl Tremaine of Cleveland, one of the sadlng contenders for bantamweight lonors, will met here on November 19.

New York, Oct. 30.—Welker Coch 'an of Los Angeles, today defeated Roger Conti of France, 600 points to 167 in the second match for the vorld's 1341 balk line billiard chain 'tunsblp, rest, we nave always ugureu ramie Collins, Napoleon Lajole and Johnny Evers the leading trio. Either one or two from this trio must be displaced or the limit must be extended to five men, to make room for frank Frisch and Roger Hornsby. Here are two worthy to wear the purple and step with the greatest of the masters. Both are great hitters, with Hornsby the better; both are great fielders, with Frisch in the lead. Larry Lajole carried more grace than any of the lot, but Frisch carries moro flame and dash. He is more of the great athlete in action than any of the others, largely because he is more of an athlete than any of the others, having been an All-Amer ican halfback in his Fordham days. If he has the durability of Lajole, Collins and Evers he may come out as the greatest all-round second base man of the game, although only rare brilliancy will ever put any one above the pheonomenal Collins, who In his 14th campaign is still one of the marvels. Frisch, Mathewson and Dave Futz are the three Who have starred to a greater extent In college football and major league baseball. Thorpe, a football star, was never a major league wonder at the other game. Ilut Matty, Fultz and Frisch held high ranlt In both sports, Eddie Collins, a Columbia quarterback, was still another. This Is not the com plete list of the double-barreled, merely the leaders. In the list of great quarterbacks for 1923 Pfann of Cornell, will make any rival arise before daybreak and travel into dusk. Doble has shown that he can lose even a Kaw and still go marching on. Think of all the relief from short missed putts, topped drives, out-of bounds frenzy, slicing anguish and bunker woe the first snowfall will bring to harassed humanity, throw ing at lasjt the Ineffable mantle of serene peace around the duffer's tortured soul. (Copyright. 1923) Proceeds From Firpo Bout Go to Buy Jack an Apartment House Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 30.—Jack Dempsey's profits from his bout with Luis Firpo have given him and his manager, Jack Kearns, full title to a large apartment house here, which the pair took over early in the year, according to an announcement today by the bond house that handled the deal.
