' Nevertheless, we hereby assert, with (as the political spell binders love to say) no hope of successful contradiction, that college football coaches on the coast, are asleep at the switch while middle west and eastern football is passing them by. That was indicated at the Rose Bowl last New Year's Day, when Stanford with a marvelously powerful team, was bowled over by little Alabama, because "Alabara" had mastered the aerial game, and Stanford hadn't. Illinois rated far from the top in the Mid West, did the same thing at the start of the season against U. S. C. And last Saturday Southern Methodist took U. 0. L. A., until very re cently rated firs) in the far west to a cleaning by adopting the same tactics. What more proof is desired! Pacific Coast coaches appear to have developed into perfect Bourbons, satisfied to rest on their laurels of the past, unable to forget anything or learn anything. The universal slogan is still power, power and more power. Power which nine times out of ten is helpless within the ten yard line, however dazzling it may be in mid-field. Forward and lateral passes are used of course, but only as a last resort, not as the heart and sinew of the game. Small wonder the coast always loses at the Hose Bowl. It will continue to lose, we predict, until the coaches wake up to the fact that !be forward and lateral pass offense has entirely revolutionized the game. Let some of the, big boys in the college league come and look over the Midford High School team, and see what the local boys have done with forward and lateral passes. We believe they would -learn a very valuable lesson. Take a Bow, Perry "A prophet not without honor aave In his own country." POR nearly a quarter of a century Art Perry has been bang- ing his weather beaten typewriter in the M. T. office, and throwing smouldering cigaret butts into the old cracker barrel that serves as his waste basket, but whoever hereabouts ever accused him of producing literature, or running any risk of setting the world of letters on fire! A. P. a member of the LITERATI! Absurd. Everyone in Southern Oregon knows Perry, the veteran skipper of the Smudge Pot, a column that is pretty good one day, and not so good the next j but neither he nor his column anything to write home about, just another happy-go-lucky newspaper scribbler, wITose waist band has been expanding rather alarm ingly of late and whose hair .has been getting pretty thin on top. Ho never took himself seriously so why should anyone else do so! ' Just shows how true that quotation above from the gospel of Luke is, and how little we know about those we rub elbows with, on terms of the utmost familiarity, every day in the old home town. POR Perry, all this time, with his wise cracks and his cracks, not so wise; his quaint comments on human nature and the local scene, his characterizations of this local celebrity and that from Prospect to the Applcgate, has been contributing to the bibliography of the great state of Oregon, and "Smudge Pot" now has a prominent and permanent place in the "History of Oregon Literature," a volume just off the press, the result of many years of study and research by Professor Powers, dean of the general extension division of the stata system of higher education. i TNT1L a copy of the book has been received, we don't know just what extracts from the Smudge Pot have been sel ected, but we have a hunch, they deal largely with local types ah) human interest, the more original and individual contri butions of the skipper rather than with general run of the columnist mill. It is in this direction, at least, been outstanding. Literaturo is not necessarily "fine writing" any more than humor is necessarily manufacturing "puns" ard sprinkling thr m liberally with wise-cracks every day. Literature is essentially drawing a true picture of contem porary life in words, and humor consists largely in the ability to maintain a proper sense of proportion, as the parade of life passes on, placing incidents and the actors in the drama of life, in the various niches where they belong. THIS is what Perry has done. Anyone who should wish to RPnill-A n TT?ni?, nSfttlFD nf tha lifn manna, an A miefftmc of Southern Oregon during the past two or three decades, would find their material, not in this or the news columns of this paper, hut in the Smudge Pot, where the creative and distilla tion processes have been going on. , Not that Smudge Pot should be taken aa a model for lit erature, native humor, or a MODEL for anything else. That isn't it. The point is that in that department and that, depart ment alone, life as it has been lived in Southern Oregon has been amusingly and accurately observed and depicted, true, typical ami alive. and that is why it has been, and why it ilesorves to be, preserved in the literary archives of this state. IN' addition, there lira been from time to time, some shrewd observations on human nature, some effective puncturing of stuffed shirts, and some ironical comments upon the political seine, national, state and local, which have added materially to the vitality ami value of the column. So congratulations to A. P. for the recognition that has been so long delayed but has at last been tendered. We knew it all the time. Pcn't go prima donna on us, Arthur.

D.. which the author prepared especially for medical stu dents (Appleton, 1915), we find beer quoted at 126 calories a Class (half pint). The beer averag ed 4.3 per cent alcoholic content. Other Ingredients which may serve as fuel were all estimated &s sugar, but the proportion of these extractives othei than car bohydrate In alcoholic beverages Is so small that the error Is negligible. Alcohol is computed solely on the basis of Its function as a fuel. As Dr. Locke takes pains to point out, al cohol consumed in more than very moderate quantities acts as a drug Instead, and when taken to excess this acttlon may negative entirely Its action as a fuel food, or even Inter fere with the digestion and absorp tion of other foods. Further, one must bear In mind that the composi tion of alcoholic beverages varies greatly from time to time, and these figures are merely the average of analyses made by various authorities. Jamaica rum contained 69.61 per cent alcohol by weight, and a "shot" of It (50 cc. or about 1 ounces) yielded 245 calories. Pure French cognac contained 55.90 per cent alco hol and yielded 78 calories to the cordial glass (about 20 cc. or oz.) California brandy contained 45.80 per cent alcohol and a cordial glass yielded 65 calories. Oln contained 30 per cent alcohol and a "hot" (50 cc.) yielded 116 calories. A dry Martini cocktail contained 21.30 per cent alcohol and the 75 cc. (3 14 ounce) glass yielded 131 calo ries, j A cordial glass (20 cc. or little less ! than ounce) of Benedictine con-1 talned 42.40 per cent alcohol and ' yielded 88 calories. American whiskey contained 43.00 per cent alcohol and a whiskey glass ful (60 cc. or about 1 ounces) yielded 152 calorics. European whis key contained 30.00 per cent alcohol and! the same quantity yielded 137 calories. California ' port wine contained 14,81 per cent alcohol and a sherry ! glassful (30 cc. or a bit over an i ounce) yielded 38 calories. California white wine contlned 9 per cent" al-1 cohol and a claret glassful (120 cc. or about 4 ounces) yielded 89 calories. European champgne sweet con tained 6.50 per cent alcohol and a champagne glassful (135 cc. or a bit over 4 ounces) yielded 161 calories. American sweet champagne contained 8.27 per cent alcohol and 135 cc. yielded 132 calories. Dry champagne contained 10.42 per cent alcohol and yielded only 112 calories (most of the sugar converted Into alcohol gas by fermentation). NEW YORK DAY BY DAY Ry O. O. Mclntyre NEW YORK. Nov. 14. Newspaper men are proud of the recent biog raphy George Brltt, a newspaper man h 1 m self, turned oit about Frank Munsey.

Nowhere In his make-up could they find an es sence of that di vine fluid which, for want of better nsme, is called printer's ink. All they could find was ice-water. He had no Journalistic Instincts, yet the biography title "Forty Years Forty Millions" capsules the story of his astonishing success. The best description of Munsey came from Elinor Glynn. The pub lisher was In Paris with Frank Crownlnahleld. One mornrng after several weeks of their stay, crownln ahleld ran Into Miss Glynn on the Champs Elyseea. Munsey was not with him.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS When to Have Health Examination Wilt you kindly state the circum stances which In your good Judgment warrant a periodic physical examina tion, for a woman In business.

Jamison, secretary of the Ore gon Cattle and Horse Raisers association, speaking at the annual meeting of the Southern Oregon Live stock association the other night, told of the capture of Toby Skene, better known In Oregon, perhaps, as Flint Spragg. Skene, horsethlef and murderer, who had long eluded the officers of the law, was captured recently by Mr. Jamison and another man when, In search of food, he entered the house they were temporarily occupy ing. (The name of the man, who is a bad actor of long standing in tha Eastern Oregon. Northern Nevada and North ern California country. Is Toby Skene. His career was romanticized recently by one of the Portland papers under the name of Flint Spragg), IT IS a little unfortunate," Mr. Jamison said In modestly telling of the capture, "that this man has been made something of a romantic hero. "He Is nothing of the sort. He Is Just a plain horsethtef, who In the end became a common and not at all romantic murderer, shooting a man down in cold blood. There Is nothing whatever about him to ad mire. "Instead, there Is everything to de test. He Is small and mean and com mon. The public, I think, ought to see htm In hii true light." OUT of these romanticized stories of criminals, a lot of ua get the Idea that these Individuals are some sort of supermen. They are nothing of the sort, Mr. Jamison says. They ore Just common crooks who either have something wrong with them mentally or are too lazy to try to earn an honest living and try to beat the game and get something for nothing by living a life of crime. DO THEY get something for noth ing? Do Ihey live fascinatingly Interesting lives? Neither, Mr. Jamison ssys. Skene Now On Display The New 1936 CHRYSLE CHRYSLER AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE got nothing but the barest and skimpiest living out of his horse stealing and allied activities, and as for living a fascinatingly Interesting life his experience was exactly the oposlte. For months before he was captured he had been dodging the officers, liv ing out In the brush. In all kinds of weather, frequently hungry and cold, and compelled to avoid human beings as one would avoid the plague. Mr. Jamison thinks he was really relieved when It waa all over and he was finally taken Into custody. 4 "QKENE Was simply starved for hu O man conversation," he says, "and after we captured him he talked free ly, even eagerly, to us, telling us at length and in detail of his activities. He seemed glad beyond measure to have someone to talk to." IT IS really a great pity that the exploits of more or less unusual criminals are dealt with In such a manner that the public gets a wrong ldeo of them, and looks upon these men somewhat as heroes. The newspapers, probably are more to blame than anybody else, .because criminal stories make good reading, and newspapers like to print news that people will read eagerly. The movies, also, are at fault, and the magazines must share the blame. Crime Is NEVER something to .be admired, secretly or otherwise, and criminals DONT live Interesting lives. Their lives are spent In dodging the law. and they seldom know an easy moment. This ought to be better known than It Is, and this writer thinks Mr. Jamison has performed an outstand ing service not only by his capture of Toby Skene but by his sane, clear headed and sensible attitude toward such men.
