which he has long been subjected, Mar
quis Ito, the former Premier Of Japan, IS
confined to his room at the Auditorium

prospective tour of the United States. His
condition is such that his attendants are
much distressed concerning him. All plans
for the visit in Chicago were laid aside
and no arrangements were made for the
continuance of the journey. f. koyama,
the Marquis physician, said tonight that
his condition was less hopeful than in the
early part of the journey.

at any time because Of his Excellency' S
health, and for that reason we have made
our plans from day to day." he said. 1T

ly hard to secure and although many were
submitted this term none were considered
worthy of prizes.
OWENS song is written to the tune of
Coon-Coon-Coon" and is as follows:
Blue blue blue we sing for California,
Gold gold gold, We all shout rahi rahi rahi
Red, red red. that color we hate to see,
We'll swallow them up like Pharaoh in the
Red, Red Sea.
Howl howl howl then shout oski WOW,

Well break their backs, disgrace them, in
