LESSON NO. ,1. . - s
1IOLDINQ AND SHIFTING' THE
. BALL. .-, .
;(Thls is the first of a series of
twelve practical football lessons
by Aubrey Devine, last year's cap
tain of the University of Iowa
eleven, which won the champion
ship of the Big Ten Conference
of the Middle -West. , Mr. .Devine
was the star quarterback otithe
year, and sport ' wrUers every

American teams. He w assistant

The boy who wants to be a good
football player, who dreams of
some day carrying the ball down
a college field lined with cheering
thousands,: must, from the very
start, learn to play right. When
you're playing with "the gang" in
your back yard; when you're kick
ing the' ball around In the school
athletic field that's the time- to
practice holding the ball right,
and getting the right kicking posi
tion. vVj'rvU;-
The first things to learn are
how to hold the ball while carry
ing it, and how to shift it proper
ly from ono arm to the other. .
J t HoH Ball Correctly. ?
THe proper way toehold the ball
when running with it is this: One
end of th "ball should be placed in
the palm of your hand, the' fing-
cf -w-Moh fhoiiH be extended

side of the ball should be against
your forearm. The other end of
the ball should be placed a little
below your arm, pit, clamped In
between the tipper part of your
arm. and your side. The other
hand should not be nsed to help
hold the , ball except in plunging
the line, ') or, possibly, when you
have been tackled and are falling
to the ground. Then it should be
placed on top of the ball to help
held U securely In places . .
While the ball Is being carried
it should always be shifted to the
opposite side from the tackier. For
example. If .you were ' trying 1 to
pass a tackier on the right eide,
the ball should be shifted to the
right arm. so that if he tackles you
he will hit you on the; left side,
and a fumble won't be so likely.
Also, the left arm can be used to
"straight arm" the tackier.
Shift by Rolling Ball "
The correct way to shift the ball
is to roll it from one arm to the
other. Thus, lf the . ball Is held
In the right arm and you want to
shift it to the left, you loosen the
clamj) of the right arm and lower
the ball slightly. Place the ends
of the lingers , of the .left : hand
against the side of the ball and
close to the end originally held
under the right arm. - Then roll
that end of the ball Into the palm
of the, left hand and i place the
other end of the ball under the
left ana with the right hand. The
ball. Is .merely, reversed -the nd
that was la the palm of your right

THE COME-DOWN
When Miss Clementine Bangs
decided to sell me, I was in des
pair. I'd been used to very good
treatment. Her chauffeur took
fine care of me, and I always felt
so stylish, going along the boule
vard with such a popular young
society lady driving me, or with
the man in livery at the wheel.
" I was still in pretty good con
dition, so I was snapped up by a
family of social climbers, who
wanted a smart looking car with
out paying so much for It. There
was a bald-haired father, a big
tat mother, and a silly looking
daughter.' -I felt ashamed carry
ing them around. It wasn't 'for
long, however, they went broke
and had to sell me.-

bought1 me to use in calling on

didn't seem to care how much he
banged me up Ko , wonder . I
grew sulky and sullen and re
fused to run half the time. He
was , always hauling me Into a
garage, where dirty old mechanics
worked over me. I began to feel
like running into a telephone pole
and ending it all. - ; ,
- Then the salesman sold me.
You could hardly blame him. I
was getting more on the bum all
the time. '-v-

PUEMIEIl POIXCARKJS REPLT
The Balfour note attracted a
great deal of notice In this coun
try, and the reply by Premier
Polncare is not less interesting
to Americans. They are not con
cerned In the controversy over the
French debt to Great Britain, to
which the reply ds in part devoted,
but broader questions are raised
which do concern the Unftefl
States as a creditor. The Bal
four note has been much criti
cized in England on the ground
that some of its implications were
displeasing to America; in hfis re
ply the French premier hardly
tries to dlsgufee his' purpose of
drawing an invidious distinction
between Great Britain and the
United States, This may be a
little irritating in England, but
It is not a very serious matter,
and Americans will read the note
mainly for what light it throws
on the attitude of the French to
ward the payment of war debtu.
Whereas Great Britain has em
phatically declared its purpose to
pay in full what it owes to the
United States, no such declaration
has come from France, and the
Polncare note points rather to a
program of partial cancelation.
It draws a ctktinclion between
war debts and the debt Incurred
after the armistice for the pur
chase of surplus American rtores;
"at least tKfl part of the debt."
the French' premier says, "is a
commercial ?debt." In regard to
the rest . the same .argument Is
held to apply as In the case of
the debt to England.- except that
apparently a prior claim for the
United States is allowed on the
ground that "It entered the war
wtfthout its exjtence being di
tectly menaced and to defend Its
honor and the principles which
form the baste of civilisation."
Whether this is giving England
or the United States the better
moral , ground for entering the
war is a question which may be
left to casuists, but in any case
the premier seems to feel that It
justifies paying England last.
What is not so dear is the
prospect of paying any part of
the French war debt, whether to
Great Britain or to this country.
France "can 1n no case consider
any settlement whatsoever of the
debts she contracted during the
war as long as the sums which
she ha advanced and which she
will have to advance for recon
strucGion or ; uer devastated re
gions hapre not been covered by.
Germany." Whether this can ever
be realized is now problematical,
and if even a beginning of the
payment of allied debts, as the
note seems to imply, is to wait
upon this remote contingency.
there may be Justification for the
blunt assertion of Louis Loncheur
that VFrance wil never pay a
sou." From the point of . view
of Washington the note Is else
Interesting -because our govtern-
ment, whteh disliked Lord Bal
four's coupling of interallied
debts with the debt to the United
States, has been . equally, set
against such a linking of the lat
ter with the German indemnity as
is made in the French reply.
At one point Premier Polncare
writes with scant, regard for the
facti of history: "During the
preparation of the" peace treaties
the victorious countries decided
for the first time in history not
to claim from the conquered
country the cost of the war."
They decided to take all that the
conquered countries could pay;
the allies after the Napoleonic
wars treated France a good deal
more generously than that. In
history the war that can be made

THE I&23 FAIR AGAIX ,
Portland asks the voters of the
other sections of Uregon to give
it permission to tax itself for the
financing of the 1925 exposition.
This appeal is to be made In every
section of the state, emphasizing
the fact that the tax is to re? 4 on
Portland alone, and all that Is
asked is that the voters elsewhere
support the proposed constitution
al amendment that will permit
Oregon's metropolis to go ahead
and provide the money for the
great exposition. , ;
"Oregon needs a comprehensive
program to attract people from
all parts of the United Stately,
says Mayor George I. Baker, who
heads .the exposition committee.
"We are certain that the 1925
exposition will bring to ths state
thousands of persons who are
seeking new homea or new lines
of lnvet-tment, and we are certain
that every part of the state will
benefit.'' The state of Oregon is
less advertised than either Cali
fornia or Washington, yet we have
abundant resources and oppor
tunities for business men, farm
ers, orchard is tj stock, men, in
vestors, etc.""- We must set forth
these advantages if we , are to
reap the. benefit of increased pop
ulation in keeping with the gene
ral growth of the Pacific coast
and to develop our state as it
should be developed in the next
few years, f" : '
The ; 1 9 2 5 . exposition to not a

state, -although Portland will
rtand the expense All Portland
asks is that the other sections of
the state sanction its plans to tax
itself r that the exposition may
proceed. Oregon is developing
too slowly; we must advertise to
tne world our resources and op-'
oortunlties. The 1925 exposition
offers the way on a large scale.
We must 'tell the state to thou
6andfc of newcomers, and that will
be the objective of the great ex
posit 'on. " ; .r . s :. ..j
Tiie campaign for, support of
the constitutional amendment is
now on full tilt, and will be pros-
jcuted with vigor until election
lay, November 6, la all parts of
the state
A campaign that, as The States
man has gaid before, ought not
-o be considered necessary .
For certainly no 'voter in Ore
gon, oufcilde of Portland, has any
sood reason to vote to deny the
people of the metropolis the privil
ege of bonding themselves to
raise money for an exposition that
!a by Its very nature calculated
to do proportionately as much
good to every part of the state 'as
to that particular portion within
the city limits of Portland.
