STiFFER GAMES ARt
mwm for "big
THREE" TEAMS IN '20
By Henry lu Farrell . :.
New York, Nov. 19. "Pink tea"
football schedules sing their swan song
this year. Tale and Harvard students
are Insistent that the football mana
gers get something worth while on the
1928 schedule to prepare their teams
for the final big game.
Princeton played a, stiff schedule
that was a distinct departure from the
usual easy marks taken on by the "big
three." The Tigers believe it was the
experience gained in the game . with
'Laf&Ttte, Colgate and JVest Virginia
that enabled a green team to tie Har
vard snd bent Vtle.
If Harvard had bucked some hard
games early in the season a different
tale might have come from the Palmer
stadium at Princeton. And if Yale had
not chosen supposedly "sure win"
'same In making up the early season's
sard, the Blue certainly would have
made a better showing against the Tigers.

IA GRAND WITHOUT
.WAV. TROUBLES IS
CLAIM OF VISITOR
' "We have no I. W. W. troubles in La
Grande these days because we have no
I. W. W. In our midst," explained Geo.
W. Cochran of La Grande, state water
superintendent, who is-here attending
a meeting of the state water board.
"The people of a La Grande have
found it necessary on. several occasions
in the past to give consideration to the
presence of I. W. W. temporarily so
journing in our city but we have al
ways attended to making the sojourn
as temporary as possible. A couple xf
years ago a meeting of the citizens was
held to discuss ways and means of rid
ding the community of about a dozen
of these characters who had liked the
looks of our city well enough to linger
a little longer than we thought neces
sary. The subjects of the discussion
got wind of the meeting somehow or
other and, evidently fearing harsh
treatment, applied to the police for a
place to spend the night under the pro
tecting arm of the law. They were
permitted to sleep in the city Jail and
the next morning were placed aboard
an outbound freight. That's the only
successful way to handle the menace.
If no community would tolerate the
presence of the 'reds' they would soon
be eliminated for want of a place in
which to light long enough to concoct
their nefarious scheme. And there Is
absolutely no reason for any toleration
of their presence in any American com
munlty especially after this Centraiia
outrage.".
CAVE
TO U-BOAT
WARFARE, HE ADMITS
By Cart 1. Groat
United Press staff correspondent)
Berlin, Nov. 18. Germany's unre
stricted U-boat campaign was ap
proved by Field Marshal Von Hin
denburg and General Ludendorff be
cause it was "necessary to prevent
Germany's soldiers from being killed
by American munitions and Germanys
women and children from being starv
ed by the entente blockade," the field
marshal today toM ' the reichstag
committee investigating the war. '
Delay Explained
Germany would have declared un-,-AfltHotAii
iinriAMuta. warfare sooner.
Ludendorff declared before the com
mittee, had she not feared Great
Rrltnin nmnM usa It as a lever to
force Holland and Denmark to ' de
clare war upon Germany. The govern
ment feared attacks from these two
small countries particularly because
troops were not available to stave off
new attacks, Ludendorff said.
The proportionate strength of Ger
many and the allies was unfavorable
to German arms from the start of
the war. Von Hindenburg said, yet
Germany would have won, he declar
ed, had she been able to bring about
the same cooperation between all ele
ments that Great Britain ana trun
did.
Says War Not Sought
narmsnv 'did not want war,. Von
Hindenburg declared. Neither the peo
ni thA kaiser, the eovernment nor
the general staff desired armed con
flict, he said. The general sum, par
ticularly, he asserted, was fully aware
of the -strength of the entente, it u
urged preparation for war it was only
because it considered that its duty to
the nation, he declared.
"Had there been solid cooperation
between the army and the home land,
however, we would have been victor
ious," Von" Hindenburg said. "Party
interests led to the breaking of the
'will to victory,' " he added.
of demonstrations by na
tionalists and communists led the"gov-
ernment to place guards along von
Hindenburg's route to the reichstag
building. No disorders occurred, How
ever. "Some members of the Lutzor
corps were arrested in front of Von
Hindenburg's home for demonstrating
there yesterday.-
