Many others were Is: rt so tliey will be marked or crippled 'or life. Last year the death toll in foot ball was 15.

HOMIRB Vnited PretM staff Correspondent, NEW YORK, Nov. 25. — The slowly dying custom of playing big football giamea on Thanks giving Is reflected In today's schedule. Only two games of more than local interest are scheduled for eastern teams. In the west one intersectluaal com bat—the Syracuse-Montana game —alone is of more than passing interest. At Philadelphia and Plttsburg this afternoon the two undefeat ed teams of trie east swing into action, and on rhe results hinges to a large extent whether Cornell will have an edge on Plttsburg or vice versa in the final accounting. Cornell should have a compar atively easy time with Pennsyl vania, which Is completing a dis astrous year replete with coach ing troubles. Pitt, however, has a tough proposition in Perm State, which already has licked Penn sylvania and came near beating Harvard.

THE «Q *A TDCEB Attorney-Athlete Would Put School Sports On a More Competitive Basis Advooatea of competitive ath letics In the Tacoma schools will have a representative In the school board next year it Frank O. Riley, Tacoma attorney and prominent athlete, is successful in his campaign for sohool direc tor. Riley launohed an earnest fight for the place this *reek. Because of his long experience In athletic event*, and his own success with physical training, the attorney is laying particular stress on this feature oX school work. Riley was what he terms "a runt" when he was a ohlld. At the age of 14 he was sickly, weak, and weighed 72 pounds. He be gan a system of training, includ ing running and oalisthentc exer cises, and rapidly developed. At 17 he could make 100 yards in 10 flat, and he maintained that speed for years afterwards. When he was 20 he welg-hed 140, and had become a local wrestling champion. He has never been defeated <n wrestling at 142 pounds. "I believe that every boy, es pecially those in the city, neods exercise," says Riley. "I am strong for all kinds of sports. But I would try to make an im provement in sohool athletics. If I were elected. "At present, all tha boys of a certain grada take athletic work together, and the smaller fellows haven't a chance, r would divide the scholars of each school into grades of weight and size, rather than grades of study, and let them compete in athletics Gn a more fair basis. The Y. M. C. A. has proven this to be the s ic cessful manner of bringing out enthusiasm and competition. Under this system many boys would be encouraged to take up school athletic work, who now are timid about entering." Riley was athletic director of NAVY YARD TEAM HAS EDGE ON THE WEIGHT Accompanying more than 500 sailors, naval officers* ,»ac» resi dents of Hremertoa, jfße t navy yard team arrived in Tm oina tiy special steamer this morning for their Thanksgiving day content at the Stadium with Tahoma Ath letic club.
