the Pennsylvania colleges will prob

through college by giving him room

equivalent of paying him money, or
professionalism. it was voted that
steps should be taken at once to stop
this practice. In the opinion of the
committee, the offering of Inducements
to young athletes to enter certain col

the highest bidder. They take a simi

Country Club of Harrisburg
to Have "Sportiest" Course
Xo time is being- lost in the erection
of the new home of the Country Club
of llarrtsburg on the rise of ground
above the city overlooking the Rock
vine bridge and the river gap to the
north. The skeleton construction of
the house itself is well under way and
present indications are that it will be
under roof before the worst of the
winter arrives.
The golf course is rapidly being
whipped into shape, pipes have been
laid to all the eighteen greens, on the
majority of which grass has been
planted and bunkers thrown up, and
every effort has been made to develop
one of the "sportiest" courses in the
state.
While the golfers of the club are
anxious to have the course completed
in short order, the probabilities are
that for a part of next summer at least
(he club Will continue to use the links
at Lucknow. The alternative is to use
temporary greens until the permanent
ones have had a chance to settle.

'LABOR LEADERS
FAVOR HUGHES
j [Continued From Kditorlal Page]
all in the community. In this case, it
was used by the few to secure ad
vantage in compensation from the
many-—something quite different from
an eight-hour law.
The attitude of Mr. Hughes toward
the Adamson law Is consistent with
that of the American Federation of
Labor itself. In the convention at
Philadelphia in 1914 the following
resolution was adopted:
"The American Federation of Labor
as in the past, again declares that the
question of the regulation of wages
and hours of labor should be under
taken through trade union activity
and not be made subjects of law
through legislative enactment."
Nor is the view of Mr.' Hughes in
consistent with that of President
Gompers. Speaking before the Com
mittee on Industrial Relations of the
Constitutional Convention of New
York on May 26, 1915, Mr. Gompers
thus expressed himself:
"I should say that I sTiould not
favor a proposition which would put
power into the hands of the Legisla
ture to regulate the minimum wage
for men in private employment, or for
the regulation of the hours of labor
of men in private employment. Let me
say this: That reading history as I
have, I am chary of placing in the
power of any governmental agency,
power fo regulate the conditions of
employment of the workers of our
country."
The best evidence of the fair and
just attitude of Charles E.'Hughes to
ward labor is the following: comment
of the Legislative News, the recog
nized organ of labor on legislative
matters in New York State, in Oc
tober, 1910, when he was not a cah
didate for office:
"Now that Governor Hughes has
retired from politics and ascended to
a place on the highest judicial tribunal
in the world, the fact can be ac-
A SENSIBLE CIGARETTE IS EASY TO "DIGEST"
No word can describe that mean feeling which often
follows smoking a poorly-blended but otherwise good

On the other hand, Fatimas always give They

Turkish blend cigarette can. (J And -best of all, Fatimas

knowledged without hurting anybody's
political corns, that he was the great
est friend of labor that ever occupied
a Governor's chair at Albany. During
his two terms he has signed 56 labor
laws, including among them the best
labor laws ever enacted in this or any
other State. He also urged the enact
ment of labor laws in his annual mes
sage to the Legislature, even going so
far as to place the demand for a labor
law in one of his messages to an extra
session of the Legislature. Only 162
labor laws have been enacted in this
State since its erection in 1777—1n 135
years. One-third of these, exceeding
in quality all others, have been en
acted and signed during Governor
Hughes' term of three years and nine
months."
Of organized labor, Governor
Hughes, in 1908, at the dedication of
the Tuberculosis Pavilion built by the
Central Federation of Labor at Al
bany, said:
"My friends, there are some who
regard organized labor as a source of
strife and menace of difficulty. X re
gard it as a fine opportunity for the
amelioration of the condition of men
working with no other purpose than
to make the most of themselves and
to achieve something for their
families. • • • Under wise lead
ership, with statesmanlike guidance,
with a sincere intention to promote
the benefit of the country and to se
cure honorable progress, the mission
of labor organizations is one of the
finest that any association of men
could guard. ♦ * • There is a
great movement in this country from
one end to the other, a movement for
progress that is not sensational, that
is not for the benefit of this or that
particular man, selfishly considered,
that is not controlled by any set of
men. but is for the improvement and
progress of humanity, because all our
decent citizenship is determined that
every abuse that can be corrected shall
be corrected and that every man shall
have a fair chance in this country."
Contrast these words with those of
Woodrow Wilson. In a letter written
January 12, 1909, he said: "I am a
NOVEMFER 6, 1916.'

Who is who in football? Ask the
first ten persons you meet and thev
will all have a different answer. The
real tests are yet to come in college
circles. Thus far the Army and Syra
cuse have been disappointments. Har
vard and 1 ale look like strong con
tenders for season's honors.
Among the little fellows the sur
prises this season are Dickinson and
Gettysburg. The Carlisle Indians, new
comers, are also a big success. Leb
anon Valley College eleven has been
keeping up its reputation and looks
like a big winner this year.
In the game at Conshohocken Sat
urday the Carlisle Indians left the
Held because the officials refused to
penalize Conshohocken for roughness.
The score was tie, 6 to 6. Coach
Clevett was umpiring and he called at
tention a number of times to the
rough playing. Later the police took
Coach Clevett to the clubhouse and
demanded half of the guarantee
money back. To-day suit was entered
against the Conshohocken authorities
for SIO,OOO damages.
The only way to assure clean games
is to have disinterested officials. No
matter how honest an official may be,
he will always be charged by someone
with partiality if he represents a
school or college that is playing. No
one believer an official would delib
erately decide unfairly, but the crowd
always feels better if neutral men are
in charge.
The Baseball Players' Fraternity
will demand protection for players on
the Injured list and the elimination of
the rule prohibiting them from en

These proposed changes, with the fight
to change the national commission,
promise a busy winter for fans.

1905 he stated that "labor unions
drag the highest man to the level of
the lowest." In 1907 he declared that
"there is another equally formidable
enemy to equality and betterment of
opportunity, and that is the class
formed by the labor organizations."
Again in 1909 he asserted that "the
usual standard of the employe in our
day is to give as little as he may for
his wages" and that "labor is stand
ardized by the trade unions."
In addition to our support of Mr.
Hughes because of his labor record,
we believe it is essential to our well
being and prosperity that the protec
tive tariff be restored by the Re
publican party, which has fathered
that policy, and that we have at the
head of the government an executive
who will bring this about in such a
way as to cover the difference in the
cost of labor here and abroad and
maintain our more comfortable stand

courage to see that it be done without
abuses.

Central I-ligh won a decisive victory
Saturday. While Nanticoke was not
in the local class, the visitors put up
a good game, lacking somewhat iiim
charging ability. It. was a thorougl"
test for Central. The teams played in
the mud and at times it was difficult
to distinguish the players, who wero
covered with mud from head to foot.
The only regret was that costly fumble,
due to a wet ball. It gave Nanticoke
a chance to score.
Picking individual players as stars
in football is not an easy task. Those
Central boys are showing form in a
manner that is bringing favorable
criticism. Hilton, Wolf, Fields, Marts,
Gregory, Frank and E. Rogers have
been doing great work, but the other
fellows were in the game, to. For
Tech, Beck, Maris, Phlllipelll, Eyester
and Wier have been factors, but others
were there when given a chance. Tho
final results arc awaited with much in

Phillips and Bennett scored the
touchdowns for Harrisburg Academy
in the Saturday game at Lancaster.
Coach Sclilichter has an aggregation
of football stars whose equal has never
been seen. Britsch, a former Tech
star, is a big factor. Captain Phillips
