Spears Agrees : Dr. Spears, the Minnesota coach, who is an advocate of the shift, readily agreed to the new ruling in the Ten games, atlhough this play is one of his team’s principal offensive weapons. Rockne argues that defensive play is overemphasized, that the game is good sport as it stands, and he urges that there be no changes in the pres- ent playing code. Others, including Fielding H. Yost, mous athletic director of- .M gan, and Robert Zuppke, coach of Illinois, are just as insistent that scoring plays-can be devised without the use of the shift, as it is used now by many teams. The contention is advanced that there is no way to combat the ad- vantage of the crashing backfield players, when they gain momentum jab the time the ball is passed. Wisconsin Drops Five-man Defense Madison, Wis. Dee. 18—()—The five-man defense in basketball, link- ed for years with the short passing game of the Wisconsin team, is going the way of knee guards. players this year will adopt the man- to-man defense, already in use by the majority of Big Ten teams, Th former system was developed to a high degree of perfection by Dr. Walter Meanwell, coach, but because of the “pony” snipers making up the personnel of the team it has been deemed adivsable to shift tactics. Long range goal shooters and heavy opposition are factors in bringing about the change according to Dr. Meanwell. With the men. stationary ‘on the floor it is easier for the op- position to crash through for close- |in shots. In case such movements are blocked, the opposing team can resort to the lengthy heaves while the defensive team remains flatfooted, Man-to-man defense calls for a rov- ing game, following the ball and a4 faster defense.

STORM TRAVELS INTO SOUTHWESTERN STAT! Kansas City, Dee. 13.--)—Cold northwest winds today brought snow flurries to many parts of ‘the middle- west and southwest, sending thermo- meters tumbling with the prospect this section would experience the coldest weather of the season follow- ing a blizzard which yesterday struck the mountain states, The storm swept southward from Canuda Saturday night, and yesterday enveloped the Kocky Mountain region und parts of the Paciffe northwest states, The blizzard continued eariy today in the territory east of the Con- tinental Divide, while Alberta and askutchewan were digging out of the worst tie-up in 10 years. Two deaths were reported in the Canadian provinces and traffic and wire communication were cut off as a 40-mile wind whipped snow into banks from 10 to 20 feet high. One story buildings in northern Saskatch ewan were buried, but Manitoba es- caped with a lighter snowfall. Traffic Disrupted Sweeping through Montana into Wyoming, Utah and Colorado, the blizzard yesterday held up air mail planes, halted automobile traffic, | | | | | | | | Ureatened train movements and caus- | ed stock men concern. Four deaths were attributed to the storm. Sub-zero temperatures were gener- al in the wake of the storm. Mon- tana held the record for cold with an unofficial mark of 31 below zero at Wilder, while the mercury ranged from five to 15 below at Helena, Butte, Billings and Lewiston. The Dakotas, Minnesota and part of Ne- braska also lay under a heavy snow ‘ianket with the mercury well below zero. Omaha reported eight hove at midnight. Snow also started in Iowa last night. With a blizzard at Leadville, Colo- rado, last night, the thermometer stood at 10 above, while Kansas points recorded temperatures in the lower twenties with a steady snow- fall at midnight. Thermometers were falling in Oklahoma and Texas early this morning, Tulsa, Okla., reporting 2 degrees above at midnight, a drop of 14 degrees in a few hours. Snow in Missouri Snow in western issouri this morning supported foréeasts that the storm would extend well into the up- per central Mississippi Valley states today. Earth tremors in southern and cen- tral Montwna occurred during the storm last night, but no damage was reported. The | quakes apparently centered at Manhattan, in the south- ern section of the state, SIX DEATHS ATTRIBUTED TO SNOW AND BLIZZARDS Seattle, Dec. 13—)—The Pacific northwest and western Canada toda; were in the clutches of winter witl six deaths attributed to snow and blizzards which swept down from Alaska. Two persons were killed near Ta- coma, Washington, when their auto- mobile skidded on newly fallen snow and a man and his wife were crushed to death in Kitsap county, west of here, by a tree which crashed through the top of their car. A woman and her daughter perished on a farm near Hanne, Alberta, while they - were see’ine another child. Alaskans were concerned over the satiety or persons in the Aleutian Is- tends and the adjacent main land, when radio stations continued silent after a three-day storm. COLD WEATHER 18 HEADED: EASTWARD Washington, Dee. 13—() — Al- though the disturbance which has brought such- cold weather to parts of the west is headed generally east- ward, today’s weather map showed no indication of a blizzard for the Atlantic seaboard.

Commenting on a comparison be- tween the Twin City-Duluth inter- stgte jobbing scale and North Dako- ta rates, Springer pointedout that they fre controlling factors when North Dakota jobbers, distributors and assemblers are placed in - com- tition with them, Bat js a change is made, he said, North Dakota bi nesa_men will continue to be al Seadvantans, with: the.

Such action, he | said, “is essential to the proper devel- Jopment of business and indust 'within our state which must com | h interstate dealers in simi lines, including mail order or cata- log houses.” f Comparison of rates between North Dakota and Minnesota points and South Dakota and Minnesota points of comparable distances show that the eustern part of South Dakota ready is enjoying the rates which are asked for North Dakota, he said. Present rates and others which have been proposed by the railroads favor the long hauls, he said, with an ob- vious discrimination against short hauls from North Dakota points. The discrimination, he said, exists not only in the case of a few freight classifications but in the entire rate structure of less-carload shipments. The proposed new rates, he said, would “absolutely annihilate” job- bing and distribution in North Da- kota. In a table showing the comparative cost of less carload shipments han- dled through principal North Dakota jobbing centers and direct from the Minnesota centers, Springer aver- red that the average cost on 1 pounds of freight for the four lead- ing freight classifications was mate- rially greater in each instance. He gave figures as follow: marck from 15 to 24 cents; 17% to 30 cents; Grand Forks, to 35 cents; Jamestown 14 t cents; Minot 24'% to 3446 cents; ley City 20 to 33% cents. Minot at Disadvantage is- Fargo, B1' the more North Dakota intrastate transportation our shippers pur- chase, in competing with direct ship- ments from interstate points, the greater the disadvantage in cents per 100 pounds,” Springer said. Mi- not, he said, is a particular sufferer from existing rates since the rail- roads have thrown a “blanket” around its territory which seriously handicaps Minot distributors. Other exhibits show, he said, that for equal distances the North Dako- ta jobbers pay over 10 per cent more in freight rates than their competi- tors in Minnesota centers. This, he said, is not usually the case in sur- rounding states. Both South Dakota and Montana enjoy rates more bene- ficial to their home distributors than is the case in North Dakota, he in- sisted. Another effect of the freight rate prejudice which he declared exists against North Dakota is a reduction in the net price received by farmers for certain agricultural products, Springer said. Among these he list- ed poultry and eggs. While freight rates ure not'wholly to blame for lower prices paid within this state in comparison with neighboring states, the higher cost of assembling these commodities is a factor, he con- tended. One effect. he said, is that “free and full competition in buying and a corresponding lessening in the price to the proaucer. Beauty and Bob Shop. Expert Marcelling. ged and Children’s Bob- ing. .

A former Dartmouth grid captain, | Parker, now an Oxford student, is of that opinion. He says he likes the i Parker stresses the point that in America football, the player is more of the outstanding stars, who con- stantly are basking in the light of newspaper publicity, players like Grange, Oberlander and others of that ilk. It becomes a_ national tragedy when one of these stars errs and thereby loses an important game. The individual himself suffers most. FAULTS ARE FEW However, for one fault that can be found of the game, scores of good things can be offered in rebuttal. The immense profits of football have made possible intramural ath- letics on a large scale, which give to the athlete who hasn’t a chance to make the varsity an opportunity to get plenty of healthful exereise and relaxation. In addition, the football profits take care of the deficits that come up in practically every other col- legiate sport with the possible excep- tion of track. COACHES REAL MEN I am against the pessimists who feel that football is being overdone. On the contrary, I feel that the im- mense popularity of the game, neces- sitating huge stadiums to take care of the crowds, is doing a great good. T am personally acquainted with most of the leading football coaches of the op i They are a fine lot of fellows, who make real men out of their charges. They are character builders. In a majority of cases, real pals to the men who come under their instruction. While the desire to win is always} uppermost in the mings of players and coaches, victory is not alw: possible and football teaches the ath- letes to accept the bitter with the sweet. Go down fighting, give your best, when it’s alt ‘over, if defeated, smile. That is the theory of most football coaches.
