Above appears a quintet of Northwestern university gridders who will oppose Coach Bob Zuppke‘. proteges in the Illinois Memorial stadium at Urbana Saturday. All five of the above playâ€" ers are residents of Illinois and starred on state high school teams before coming to Northwestern. Captain Walt Holmer, fullback on the Wildcat eleven, hails from Moline; Henry Bruder comes from Pekin; Justin Dart is a product of Hinsdale; Mickey Erickson starred at Moline high and Yatz Levison came to Northwestern from Evanston. â€" Again we figure in fiction. Mcâ€" Kinlay Kantor‘s story "Diversey" is, as might be suspected from its title about Chicago. It is one of those tales told in short barks, somewhat like a series of movie inserts. Guns, lights, toots, wild women whirl by so gloriously and incessantly that one is moved to go to our city and have another look. There must be a lot we missed the last time. + Mary Javlyn came to Chicago from an Iowa town where he had been reâ€" | porter for the "Courier." He came| as most young men of his kind would | comeâ€"for excitement, for opportuâ€"| nity, for new experience. He got‘ them, to a certain extent, all. Exciteâ€"‘ ment in his love affair begun with no | delay with the green eyed girl across‘ the hall, in the bootleg war in which he becomes involved; opportunity in | the chances offered by the city paâ€"| pers of which he has not at the end | of the book taken advantage; new exâ€" | periences at every turn in the beâ€"| wilde ring pageant of city life. Mary , sees it all as a pageant passing | against the background of the little! Iowa town, the Dorset porch, the "Courier‘ office carly in the morning. | Anyone looking over the lists of books which ure to be published in the next three months might be tempted to cover his eyes and run, erying "No thank you we already have a bock." But we have lived through other seasons as prolific and it is probable that we will get through this one. Among the interâ€" esting oncs just off the presses Senâ€" ator Beveridge‘s "~Life of Lincoln" ranks high. It is written not in the sketchy method of the popular ficâ€" tional biographer but as the New York Times says "Beveridge‘s way was to get all the facts, sift them and present them. in the conviction that was to get all the facts, sift them and present them,. in the conviction that the character would emerge of itself. It did." As proof again that the really great and flaming personaliâ€" tivs of the world never grow . old, Rachel Annand Taylor has written a brillian:‘ biography of "Leonardo the Florentine.‘ In her pages the great colorful age anrd its greatest genius come to life again. One evening in the dining room of the fabulously lovely hotel at Lake Louise I fooked up to see an unusuaiâ€" ly striking man in evening clothes walking with great dignity down the length of the room. . immediately there was a murmur. originating in this air as those murmurs always do, "That‘s a fullâ€"blooded Indian chief, he is a college graduate and did disâ€" tinguighed service in the war. He is Mn suthor, too. he has a book which is going to be published." That was too much!

Very simply and yet with a great ‘me! of wrace and polish he has told {li> stoty, of buffalo hunts, the exâ€" ploits of medicine men, wars and the aweer wild tribal dances in which he has taken part many times. It is all part of an almost forgotten time, ye: would you believe that many of the most famous chiefs still live, that only a little over twenty years ago these Indians saw their first white but it is true. This is a book to be read for it is me of the few that we will ever have from onc of the Indians who lived in that famous, glamorous time. the least the stately figure, walking as if through one of his own forests, his fearless eyes straight mhead, his skin no darker than the sun had made other skins in the room, his features like an Indian carved in bronze. It would be entertaining to be able to say that this Indian chief was Chief Buffalo Child Long Dance, author of the book "Long Lance." Unfortuâ€" nately I have not the faintest idea, vet it might have been for the pubâ€" lisher‘s blurb on the cover coincides n all the particulars with that murâ€" mur.
