Cask, probably one of the best developed players oa the gridiron today* has signed up with Benny FriaAnan's New York Giants and willhe in that lineup when the Giants meet tike Green Bay Packers next Sunday at Green Bay for the leadership in Pro-football circles. The Packers were undefeated until the Cardinals drew blood last Sunday and handed them a 13 to 6 defeat that might have been worse had not the gun ended the game. Cagle should be a neat addition to the running attack of the Giants and should strengthen their all around play. Savoldi will be out of the rest of the games that Notre Dame will engage in this year if present reports are true. And don't think that this -won't give Northwestern another chance to celebrate. But they'd best <io their celebrating before the game next Saturday. Maybe this boy MuJlins won't put in a good word fo* the "Fighting Irish." * Is McHenry to have a basketball team in the independent ranks this season? This was the question the MAACS tried to iron out at their annual meeting last Friday night. Only a few business men were there, but there should have been more for is it not the business men that derive some 'benefit from the activity that basketball promotes in this city? What would McHenry fans do in the dead of winter? For this reason the problem should be of vital interest to every business man concerned with the welfare of the community as a whole.

Bolger is the incoming vice- president and Barnard Kinsala the new secretary, succeeding Augustine Freund, who this year is to act as treasurer. „ Several matters of oU business were brought up and then the new officers took the chairs and the discussion about organising the basketball team for this year was started. Several entanglements arose and before they could all be threshed out the evening was over and the long night had set in. Open discussion seemed to rule for the greater part and as usual, no special point could be gained. It is expected that they will be organized qu'te soon as all the boys seem to want to engage in the sport again this year. All that is necessary is that some agreement be reached as to the expense account and the disposal of the foods tfrat are taken in at the games.-r' v'.V";- BASKETBALL PRACTICE STARTS AT HIGH SCHOOL Two pats l<eave Twenty Men On tke Squatf--Many Green Men This Year Having reduced a squad of thirty odd men down to the base of twenty.

ThE^a - ThEOUIDGORS ktAH£RS GIVING STALE BREAD TO FEED WILD LIFK Because of the imperative need of feeding wild life this winter two brothers of Illinois have hit upon a novel and practical plan of securing a great deal of food to be distributed for birds and animals when the winter snows come. Out on a 30-acre peony farm just north of DesPlaines, 111., Walter C. jKennicott and his brother, Harrison, have a bird commissariat. They not tonly supply all the winter birds who come to them for food that the snow and ice hides, but they dispense food to many other workers who have bird shelters and colonies that need food. Kennicott solicits thousands of loaves of stale bread from the Baker's club of Chicago every week and from the state grain inspector's office come many sacks of sample grain. Using his own truck and whatever other hauling facilities he can borrow, he gathers his food and carries it out to his farm. Following severe storms and freezing spells, the birds need between Jthree and four tons of bread a week, *>r nearly 8,000 loaves. Ransom, another brother, is chief forester of Cook county. Walter, when he is not aiding Harrison with the form, is president of the Associated Cook County chapter of the Izaak Walton league and president of the- DesPlaines chapter. This idea can well be followed throughout the United States and Canada by those .desiring to do winter feeding of wild 1705 j 0ffjciais of the American Game t Protective Association point oil. :££* *' v Automobile insurance is one of the benefits available to members of the Chicago Motor Club.
