MAINLAND FOOTBALL TEAMS
TO INVADE HAWAIIAN ISLES
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24. (JP)—'
Football has staged its longest end
run to cross the goal line of Ameri
ca’s western outpost—Hawaii.
In the islands, where heretofore
only ordinary interest has been man
ifest, the sport has penetrated to
virtually every point. The thump
of the pigskin will resound across
2,100 miles of the Pacific this year
when three college teams journey
from the United States to take on
the pick of the islands at Honolulu.
The first intersectional game is
scheduled for Dec. 12, when the Co
lorado Aggies meet the University
of Hawaii. On Christmas Day Wash
ington State College will line up
against the Senior League team. The
football classic of the islands will
be played on New Year’s Day, bring
ing together Washington State and
the University of Hawaii.
The University of Hawaii will make
a trip to the States to play Occi
dental College at Los Angeles on
Thanksgiving Day. Last year at Hon
olulu the island team defeated Oc
cidental, 19 to 6.
INVASION OF TOURISTS LEAVES
FRENCH WITH SMART PHRASES
PARIS, Nov. 24. (jP)—William of
Normandy’s rather forceful conquest
of the British Isles gave thousands
of Norman-French words to the En
glish tongue. In these latter days
the ever-more-numerous invasion, of
English and American tourists has
added a heterogeneous collection of
isolated words and phrases to the vo
cabulary of the smart Paarisian.
Words ending iq, “ing” have a
special fascination for the Parisian
who wouldn’t think of trying for a
comprehensive English vocabulary,
but who likes to interlard his sen
tences with words of a bizarre sound.
A dinner jacket is always a “smok
ing,” one travels in a “sleeping,” or
sleeping car, and one even goes out
for an afternoon’s “footing” in the
Bois de Boulogne of a bright Autumn
day.
“Weekend” came into general use
during the endless conferences of
the post-war years, when English
statesmen insisted upon getting away
Friday night for a rest over Sunday
from official cares. In a similar
way Parisians have learned to take
their “five o’clock.” “Flirt,” used
as a noun and not as a verb, is in
good usage.
Sporting terms, such as “knockout,”
“uppercut,” and the “deuce” and
“love” of tennis, have gotten almost
national circulation, despite the ef
forts to a number of eminent sports
men to persuade their followers to
use the pure French.
