PASTOR SEEKS BIG SUM FOR SLANDER ONTARIO CENTER, N. Y., Oct. 17.—Statements alleged to have been made by Peter Vandine, a member of the First Presbyterian church of this village, that the Rev. Grant G. McChesney, pastor of the church, was guilty of misappropriating the funds of the church and that he was "a crook." statements which, according to the complaint filed by the Rev. McChesney, caused the presbytery to request his reallocation, are the basis today of a $10,000 suit for slander filed by Rev. McChesney. The request that McChesney resign was later rescinded when the pastor vindicated himself. According to McChesney, Verdine was the instigator of a plot to force his resignation from the church. Through a series of statements alleged to have been made by Verdine to other members of the congregation, the Rev. McChesney also charges that his daughter was discriminated against when she ran for office in one of the societies of the church. At sessions of the church members held in homes in Ontario Center, Williamson and Ontario, Verdine is alleged to have uttered glamorous statements by which the congregation of the church was split into two factions.

Primo Rivera in Spain has won for him the title of "the Spanish Mussolini." Except for the dramatic career of the Italian premier, General Rivera's quickly executed and momentous achievements are without parallel in modern history. If, for the sake of more clearly visualizing Rivera's attainments, the sudden arbitrary dismissal of the president's cabinet in the United States could be conceived, together with the ousting from office of every governor of every state in the Union, some idea of the stupendous governmental changes which have been wrought in Spain in the last few weeks could be obtained from the American viewpoint. Virtually every vestige of the former government was suddenly swept out of existence, and the military firmly ensconced in its stead throughout the nation. Apparently these epochal changes are with the complete sanction of the king. So sweeping have they been, in fact, and their potentialities so pregnant that some observers predict Alfonso may have the distinction of being not only the last Spanish king, but the first Spanish president.

It is no more. If the Fall openings of the grande contouriers along the Rue de la Paix tell us anything, it has gone the way of many good things. New Fall models show that two pieces sewed up into a fine seam, will not suffice to make a lovely garment. Gowns are cut in a more subtle and intricate manner. The additional space called for is given by means of flouncees, godets and other expansions. Blas folds are attracting a good deal of attention. They give added charm to every gown and in no manner destroy the trim gritish allouette which is always desired. Skirts have climbed up and this was to be expected with the added fullness. In the Paton collection they are quite short, from nine to 12 inches from the floor. Jenny makes her skirts short in all types of frocks, even for evening wear. Gabriella Channel is another to use the simple lines and distinctly short skirt. But there seems to be no fixed rule, and while we are thinking that all designers are agreed upon the shorter skirt, we may wake up tomorrow in find the verdict changed. Such is fashion.

SPORT SNAP SHOTS BY JACK KEENE In the football season of 1907 a preliminary game was being played at West Point. When the players lined up there was a huge bulk of a man at tackle. It was necessary to stand alongside him to realize what his bulk was, because his weight was so great that he could carry the ground structure and the superstructure of his frame very nicely. The game had not gone very far before this giant ran wild. He upset everything in his path, nearly, including the officials who got in his way. The players of the opposing team seemed to melt in front of him like wheat that is dropping to the ground in front of a reaper. "Keep an eye on that fellow," said one of the army coaches. "His name is Pullen. He comes all the way from Alaska, and before he is through playing football here on the plain, I think he will take about all the football players of other teams captive and tote them back to Alaska with him. He has strength enough to carry a mule on his shoulders and run uphill with him. He doesn't know a lot about playing football and probably will overstep the rules until he gets settled into the game, but when he makes up his mind to go somewhere he'll be there when the train stops." D. D. Pullen passed away recently at Walter Reed hospital at Washington. He was Maj. D. D. Pullen, graduate of 1910. He had been ill several months. He was decorated for bravery during the war, and his age was 38 when he was called. He was a member of the football teams of 1907 and 1908 that played the navy. There was no game in 1909. In the 1907 game that Pullen played against the navy, the men on the team were Besson, Underwood, Stockton, Stearns and Ayres at end. There were many ends. The navy had a busy pair that year, DeMott and Dague, who kept the Army on the jump. The tackles of the Army eleven were Weeks, Pullen and Fowler. Pullen, if memory serves well, played himself into the ground and was injured. "Red" Erwin and Moss were guards. Erwin is the polo player who represents the United States so well now. Philloon was center and Mountford and Kerra quarterbacks. Surles, Greble, Beavers and Johnson were halfbacks; Smith was fullback and captain, and Hanlon also played fullback. The Navy won 6 to 0. In the first half the Navy got the ball on a fumble. With a play gone, Lange got through and put the ball on the Army three-yard line. The Navy fumbled the next time. Players said that Pullen smashed through one brought about the fumble. On the next play Douglas went across the line and that was the only score in the game. In 1908 Pullen played tackle again. Johnson, Stearns and Carberry were Army end, Byrne and Beson played the other tackle position. Weir, Moss and Nix were the guards. Philloon not only was center again, but captain. Hyatt was quarterback. What a general on the football field he was! The games he directed are classics of judgment in football. Dean and Greble were halfbacks, Chamberlain and Walmsey played fullback. The Army defeated the Navy 6 to 4. Dean made the touchdown and goal for the Army. Lange a goal from placement for the aNvy. Dean scored after a very unusual play. Dalton had punted for the Navy and Greble kicked back after one fake play. The ball struck the ground. Chamberlain, on side, coming down on the run, grabbed the ball and ran to the Navy four-yard mark. This was almost before the game had got warm. Two tries ans Dean scored his touchdown. Toward the end of the first half Navy, with only a down left and close under the Army line, tried a placement kick, which Lange made. LIONS AB. R.

SEEKING FUND FOR WORK UPON LEVEE Canvassing committees of the Richfield-Anaheim Flood Control District will begin the work today of obtaining funds for repair and maintenance of the district's levee. The appointment of these committees, the outlining of the work needed and election of D. E. Luzier as chairman to succeed G. F. Collins resigned, and of George W. Reid, secretary of the C. of C., as secretary were the features of last night's gathering. Messrs Mills and Rust will canvass the section west of East street, and Messrs. Vanderheke, Wishnant, Krulzenga, Smith, Luzier and Beebe the other sections. Former Chairman Collins outlined the district's needs as follows: "We need to place 450 feet of pilng and wire at an approximate cost of $2.40 per foot and we must put brush or willows between 2000 feet of a double row of pilng at a total approximate cost of nearly $1500. Then, there is made necessary the expense consequent to keep the old and new work in repair. We should be able to meet this as our neighbors at Anaheim and Garden Grove are doing. "You will remember that a number of citizens solicited the fund already expended, but they are unable to go over the ground again and we rely on those who did not pay last year to take care of their part of the expense, which is based on $4 per acre against property which would be in immediate danger of flooding outside the zone of immediate danger, but likely to be damaged physically or in value. "A number of citizens contributed to this fund last year who, in the judgment of the committee, should not be asked for more money until those who have not responded, pay their part. We take it that every man wants to bear his part of the burden. You certainly do not want your neighbor to carry you. Those of you who paid nothing last year, we urge to send in your check, and for bravery during the war, and his age was 38 when he was called.

The reductions, Smoot said, could be effected in event no soldiers' bonus is enacted and would total approximately $500,000,000. GLEASON RESIGNS CHICAGO, Oct. 17.—Wm. "Kid" Gleason, veteran manager of the Chicago White Sox, today confirmed reports that his resignation had been handed to Charles A. Comiskey, to take effect immediately. The manager of the famous team which he once coached to a world's championship and which, under his direction, was broken up and entirely disintegrated in the "Black Sox Scandal" following the 1919 world series, said conditions have become such that he resigned in order to "save Mr. Comiskey" from the embarrassment of relieving him, if it was desired.

The defendant in People vs. Del BLOCK & TACKLE IN FOOTBALL TEAMS NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—These are the days when football writers dust off the word "fundamentals" and spring it on the public in their yards from the grid camps. What is a fundamental? "Coach Blahblan arrived today and took charge of the Bearcat football prospects, announcing the first week's practice would be devoted to fundamentals." Thus the correspondent. But what is a fundamental? According to Germany Schultz, old-time Michigan star, All-American center and now a coach, there are two real pigskin fundamentals. They both belong to the old and the time-honored firm, "Block and Tackle." Without Block and Tackle, says Schultz, any football squad is a wreck and will continue so beyond salvage. And he is right, at that. The public watches the progress of the pigskin up and down the field, and applauds, or notes the lack of progress, without seeing much else. It appreciates a beautiful open field run, or a hard drive off tackle, and hands the ball carrier three, five and nine rabs with a tiger now and then. The football player who has himself been drilled in the so-called fundamentals see the blocking and tackling. Without good blocking the long run is impossible. No team can score consistently without blocking well. And no team, on the other hand, can consistently prevent scoring without tackling well and hard.
