Letters], published speeches, lithographs and contemporary volume# depict his emergence aa a national and international figure. Os particular note is the first edition of his to Hayne," in which he established himself as “the,defender of the Constitution," and a letter from President James Madison commenting on the great power of the speech. Then there is a page from tlie first edition of |the speech which he delivered March 7, 1850 4n which he urged both the North and South to exercise restraint and moderation. Through his letters one gets at Webster's personal life as weM. One such message, written* to his brother, tells of his sorrow: at the death of his first wife. . One of the most memiorable missives is bne sentence long written to his friend, George Tlcknor, in which hie wrote: “The work is done —39 to 9.” That was the announcement the treaty was cothpleted establishing our boundaries with Canada. ' I Webster’s clock, pipe, silk stockings and coffee pot are among the items in the case marked ’ memorabilia." A Pair of decanters, several wine glasses and a paperweight which was a gift of JPrime Minister Lord Palmerston of Britain surround a small leather trunk, initialed in hobnails, which Webster used as a dispatch box. A touching message from the aging statesman displays his regret to Professor Sanborn in Hanover that he could not attend the 1851 commencement — the 50th anniversary of his own graduation.

Says Noire Dame Shift Is Legal CHICAGO, UP — Notre Dame’s roundly criticised “shift” is completely legal.la Big Ten spokesman eaid today, ahd as for violating the “spirit of thb game," so does the body block in baseball. i The thing you have to remember,” he said, “is that anybody oh the offense may employ any type of legal System or shift to confuse the defense. . ■ I : . “And whether it’s a violation of the spirit, that’s throwing your body into the second baseman to break up a double play in baseball. Or it’s luring somebody out of position,” The Big Ten spokesman's position duplicated that taken by athletic director Ed “Moose” Krause of Notre Dame.- ’ - |\ “If we can’t use it," Krause said, "who can? We invented it. And I guess it's been going on since back about 1913, when Knute Rockne had his team shift from the T to the box. j “Rockne had some j complaints about It too, and he continued to use it. Other trains have used it on us. Notre Dame\ was accused of violating the “spirllt of the by Southern California's Coach Jess Hill after his Trojans were beaten. 9 to 0, Saturday 4 . The Trojans were penalized from their nine to their, four yard line on the Irish drive for the only touchdown of the day when the Southern California linemen were called for encrohchment as they leaped Offside when Notre' Dame's backs shifted. The rule says that any team may employ a shift, if it’s a perfectly normal and accepted • thing, Big Ten spokesman, supervisor of officials, said. He added that the shift would be legal providing that no player continued run\iihg, that the center did not feint a pass or that none of the players hiade any effort to simulate a false\ start and thus tend to draw the defense off side. Jay Berwangeif, a former AllAmerican at Chicago, who refereed the Irish-Trojan spectacle, said the play was legal. He said f the offb bials were not briefed before the game that Notre Dam|e might use. the play, but added that his crew df officials had seen the play used by other teams this year. \ \ r Tough All Over Knoxville, Tenri.
