S. football squad is being sent through a week of intensive practice by Coach Blodgett in preparation for their second game of the season with Livingston here Saturday. Although handed a 40-6 defeat last week by Staunton, the Tigers came out of the game in a fine condition suffering no serious injuries except Berleman's sprained ankle which makes him unable to play this week. Having profited by this game the Bengals have corrected their faults and are ready to meet the Livingston determined to win. Last week's game was featured by Kelly Judd's punting and Capt.

Snajdi's defensive wor.k and they are expected to come through again this week. Last year the Tigers defeated Livingston without much difficulty but it was only the first year that they had participated in this sport.

Marguerite Combes, an entomologist of note, introduced a lighted candle into an ant-hill in the forest of Fountainbleau not far from Paris, a hill of brown ants known as "formic rufa." The ants scurried about a bit and then proceeded to extinguish the flame by squirting formic acid upon It.

Where they had the intelligence to try to extinguish the fire by acid, they lacked the abHity to direct the stream effectively.
