Shift Is Effective Those who saw the Harvard- Centre game Saturday know that the lock-etep shift ise effective even if they aren't quite clear why it should be more demoralizing to a team on the defense, than the more common shi't plays are. Being new it had the element of surprise, not only to the spec tators but to the Harvard team, which required a number of plays to accustom itself to the strange sight of a whole team marching, hand on sehouluer and in ths ap proved Sing Sing style, and then trooping back before the ball was snapeped. Jfore Time Required The one objection raised againts the lock-step shift seemr to be the tlma it requires, particu larly when the quarterback add? an extra figure to hTg signals and the whole team "fronts" and "right abeouts" with the precis ion of a troop of circuse, Zouaves.

Fifth Jury Completed in Burch Murder Trial NEW YORK. Oct. 23. Fear that America is drifting back to its short-sighted, careless and happy-go-lucky attitude of the early days of the European war toward the vitally Important mat ter of preparedness, was expressed by Secretary of War Weeks in an address tonight before the New York post of the Army Ordnance association. "I have no patience!" he declar ed, "with the groups of silly paci fists in this country who are seek ing universal peace through un dermining with their Insidious propaganda, the ability of their own country to protect itself. Who do these people see in the signs of the times to deceive themselves into believing that w can disarm while others arm? In what way had human nature changed since 1914? Major General James O. Har- board, deputy chief of staff, also addressed the association, launch ing an attack on pacifism. "War for us seems fairly re mote at this moment," he said. "Last month the commanding gen eral of the district of Washing ton put on a little demonstration of an Infantry attack. It was a s;ood show, witnessed by probably 20,000 people. At its closee the general was waited upon by two ladies who asked where the next one would be held. They said they belonged to a woman's peace organization and he was making war look so attractive that they wished to put on a rival meeting next time to counteract its effect." PUBLIC. SCHOOLS.
