LACK OF FOOD PERILS 43 MINERS, THREE DIE (Continued from page 1.) stood women and children,, many of them belonging to the miners entombed Friday noon when an avalanche of rock and earth, ap parently loosened by the vibra tion of machinery, blocked "the shaft. . In the local morgue "are the bodies of three men whose lives were crushed out when th lift hi which they were being .carried to the surface 'was hurled to the bot tom of the opening. - Their bodies, badly- mangled, were recovered early today by rescuers who reached fliem through another opening. The .victims were. Identified as Thomas Ro well, -60, underground electrician, and his two assistants, Kvar Gustafson. 35, and Gust Sell, 36. . - Rescue workers .were racing against time tonight as they con tinued their work of repairing the shaft and removing the rock. and debris, which are jammed several hundred feet below the mouth of the level - where the imprisoned men are located. Officials of the mine expressed hope that; the - men, might - be reached tonight, jTheyare .not believed to-, have any food, and theri hope of saving them was contingent upon reaching their prison before , hunger attacks them. ' One afternoon last fall, as I was on my way to the Fort Collins athletic field and the daily football turnout, a stranger fell in step beside me. I was wearing old clothes, and he evidently had sized me up as belonging to the coaching staff. "I understand," he began, "that Fort Collins High has a triple pass scoring playUhat has been extremely success ful." t ; : "It has brought us 51 touchdowns since 1917," I agreed. , , "I'm told, too, that you conduct a ten-day camp before each football season, and that your men come back as hard as bricks," "They should, with the Rocky Mountains to harden them." - - "And is -it true," the stranger went on eh seemed so sincerely, impressed with, what he had heard about Fort Collins that it was easy to excuse his abrupt inquisitiveness "that more than one-third of the !oys in your school turn out for the team?" J ';; .' More than one-half1 1 corrected. "More than one-half !" he exclaimed. "Fort Collins must have a wonderful coach." ' "Fort Collins has," I agreed, -with enthusiasm. "And who is he ?" inquired the stranger. By this time we'd reached the field, and here and there all over it the squad was in action, warming up. "There's the coach," and with my arm I indicated every fellow in sight. "At Fort Collins High, everybody coaches." And then; as my friend looked unbelievingly "The triple 'pass scoring play that you asked about did not come from trie it originated with the boys themselves. So did the idea of the football camp. And we have big turnouts because the boys keep tab on everybody, and urge-likely looking fellows to try for the teams. Why, in track season " r "Hey, coach' somebody, yelled. ?'Here's a new one gonna make yardage with it tonight, too. Quarter plays way back, .ends move out " And so I forgot" the questioner. A fellow has to pay attention to a coach ! And wasn't the voice that addressed me the voice, of a coach ? , Fort Collins' experience has proved that no coacri needs to shoulder the burden all by himself that his boys, if en couraged, will supply him with more new, workable ideas than he can possibly use. The Fort Collins system, which has brought us much more than our normal share of victories, was created, in the main, by the boys themselves. We owe our football camp to a suggestion from Carl Brown. . Brown, our quarterback, was captain-elect for the 1922 season. Shortly before school closed for the summer he stopped me in the hall. . "I've got a good summer job," he informed me, " in the mountains." (Fort Collins men keep in condition by hard outdoor work during vacations). "I wish we -could get some of the fellows together, ahead of time, to sort of plan things. 1 Why don't you bring the whole gang up the last week in Ancmst?" The idea met favor everywhere. The following fall twenty-six members of the football squad were on hand when we started, in battered autos loaded to the fenders with tents, provisions, and padded pants and helmets. We 'headed for a spot in the mountains, 85 miles distant. The first 65 miles tetter I''vV.tii i-ijar-T-,-- . -, , - T .

We had nearly reached our rendezvous when to our dismay we came upon a lake 200 feet wide. A colony of beavers, who apparently didn't give a darn about Fort Collins or football either, had dammed a valley. We fooled 'em by puncturing the dam, then felling small trees and building a croduroy road across what was left of the lake. No doubt the beavers,, later, made good use of the trees we had cut. The first camp was a big success, and largely responsible for our winning the Colorado state championship. Since then' the camp has become as much a part of Fort Collins life as Christmas vacation, or Commencement. A day in campls strenuous, but interesting. At 5 a. m. . everybody jumps out of bed if he doesn't the removing squad removes him. Then it's a quarter-mile sprint to' the creek. Sometimes at this camp high up in the Rockies, it's so cold, early in the morning, that you have to break the ice to get at the water. Yet everybody sees to it that nobody shirks, and how glowing and healthy you feel, after you've doused yourself. Meanwhile the breakfast squad (we do all our own work, which enables us to hold the cost per man to $4 for the entire ten days) has cooked the bacon and eggs and coffee, and at 6 :30 we eat. By 8 :S0 everybody in in his footfall togs and on the field.- For two hours we practice fundamentals falling on the ball, tackling, blocking, kicking. Kicking reminds me of a funny trick that Old Man Altitude played on us, the first time we camped in the mountains. I found my punters punt ing the ball tremendous distances 60 or 65 yards at a clip. All of us were overjoyed, and we played an offense in which kickirie would jrain most of our ground. But ten days later, field, those mnBnx.ar.a nt in naa fet: ami kick- ing in the denser atmosphere of the lower levels.
