in the history of the country.

ed here with Col. E. M. House, a
fellow Texan, the unofficial am

Speaker Garner told newspaper
men: “I believe it a distinct pos
sibility that there will be some
form of modification of the Vol
stead Act to bring back a return of
beer before March 4, or during the
short session of Congress. My guess
is this will happen because of de
mands of the Democratic platform
and statements of Democratic
Congressmen, many of whom are
now up for reelection. It is virtu
ally certain that the House will en
act such legislation. Of course, I
cannot speak for the Senate”.

ST. IIT'S LIS
MORAGA, Calif., Oct., 12,—The
lamb has become a lion at St.
Mary’s College. The reins can be
tossed away and the Gael is out to
roar as loud and long as possible.
This became evident at Moraga
when “Slip” Madigan declared:
“Against San Francisco, we are
going out to get the ball and go as
far and as many times as we can.”
In other words, there will be no
let-up so far as the galloping Gaels
are concerned. From now on, the
dynamic coach of the Destroyers
intends to put on the pressure and
show no mercy.
This, doubtless, was the reaction
from the California game Satur
day, in which the Gaels were tied
12 to 12. St. Mary’s was'sent into
the game without being tuned to a
high point and probably with the
thought of winning by only the
narrowest margin. If that were the
case, the error was apparent from
the start.
And Coach Madigan is taking no
chances in the future.
