Speaking of Sports Austin Downs of Georgia grabbed the kickoff and ran 90 yards to score a touchdown against Yale. A case of too much Downs rather than too many. Illinois has a young man named Gilbert Berry who specializes in 60 end $0-yard runs for touchdowns. He's one of the more important of Berries you've been hearing about these years. It looks as though Zuppke was | about to give the rest of the Big| Ten the old Berry. | The A’s won the championship in | spite of a pronounced weakness. | Throughout the entire series they | eouldn't seem to hit singles.

Dykes must have | been given the wrong number on | one of the balls hit down to him in the third game of the series.

President Attacks Morrow in Grand Rapids Speech Grand Rapids, Mich., Oct. 16.—(®) —The senatorial candidacy of Dwight W. Morrow in New Jersey, the “wet press,” and proposals that the United States adopt the Canadian plan of government control of liquor were criticlzed last night by Mrs. Ella A. Boole, national president of the W. C. T. U, in speech before the annual state convention of the Michigan organization Mrs. Boole charged with “overriding the platform of which Herbert Hoover was elected | and his policy of law enforcement. | Discussing the “wet press,” the | national president ridiculed “head- line writers who for the sake of a | headline misrepresent subject mat- | tor’" The Canadian liquor control sys- tem, she said, actually is little more than government sale, and rather than controlling has all the evils manifested under the American pro- hibition Jaw and very little of the good. She said that government con- trol does not do away with the boot- legging problem and that it makes every hotel room ‘a potential saloon.” JR.
