Plenty of Pheasants Left in Iowa, Authorities Say DES MOINES, la. (U.lO-Iowa conservation authorities said today that there were plenty of pheasants left iu the state despite the Armistice day blizzard, and that duck and geese shooting was good.

"In some open areas where little cover the as! high as 90 percent." he said.

By Bernie Down at Columbus. Ohio, a lot of. people are'beginning to pay some attention to the direction from which the wind is blowing. Chief among those to whom that, is important is Francis A. Schmidt the Ohio State football coach.

In the past years Schmidt nick-name ot" "Show No Mercy." Tins was because he and his teams seemed to take great delight in running up big scores against hapless opponents. Ohio State 85, Drake 0. This year Schmidt' might well have earned another title. Following the Ohio State-Cornell game in which the Bucks were beaten 21 to 7, Schmidt accused Carl Suavely, the mentor of the Big Red team, of signaling from the bench. This incident, -along with the antics of the Cleveland Indians, gave Ohio State the dubious honor of being the champion cry-baby state of the country, and it was only because sports writers had so many other things on their minds that they didn't publicly christen Schmidt "Cry Baby." But we were discussing wind direction.
