Changes in Mourning Styles

THE European war has undpubt-

the old fashioned ideas Of
mourning. Now that half the women
in Europe are wes ring mourning
styles must ~ necessity undergo a
severe change. in Iaris one meets
very few except the Americans who
are not in black or thu less scycrc
stages of mourning. and yet Paris
Is chic, as always, and perhaps in
mourning attire even a littln more
elegant than when in gaycst culurs.

to the greatest results. The army ex-
crcises. passing the ball. and a couple

success as coach has been due to
the condition OF his charges and while
1t is hot for football. Dame Fortune
may be smiling upon him and his men
that they may be In the pink OF con-
dition for the real practice TO come
The prospects for winning team
at Richmond College are bright. but
the failure of several of last years
varsity men to report is source OF
keen disappointment. OF the old men
that have matriculated are Captain CO.

and Robins. tackles: c. Wicker. quar-
ter back. and Roden. substitute half,
with tho possibility Of Craig and
Cosby returning.
Coach Dobson has announced that
John Logan has definitely decided not
to return this year. Dobson had been
hopeful. but this announcement Will
lay at rest all possibility Of his re-
turning. His place at full back will
indeed be hard to fill. a S he was con-
coded to be one of the best in tho
Eastern Virginia intercollegiate Ath-
letic Association.
ONLY SIX MEN HAVE
RETURNED TO PLAY BALI,
With a nucleus of only six men to
build his football machine around.
Coach Dobson has his work cut out
for him to fill the positions at center
and both ends. 1t is Dobson's inten-
ton to play Woody. of last years
squad. at center, and NIilbourne, an
end OF considerable note, at one of
the ends. Both OF these men are dis
laying nice form, as is Turner. of last
years scrubs, who in all proba bility
will play in the backfeld.
Harry Carter. who, on account Of n
deficiency In entrance requirements,
was barred from athletics last year,
has complied with these requirements
and is back in college Carter is a
1875 pounds, is considered a fast man.
OF the new men in college little is
known Of but two. Poff. of Fork
Union Academy. and Sanford, of Chat

of being good men.
Beginning tomorrow. real football
practice will be held. Dobson has
ordered :he tackling dummy and

nouncement Dobson states that the
squad will be augmented by ten ad-

that one or two good men will BIO

Yellow Jackets have been working out

despite the hot weather. The coach
arrived on Monday to take charge Of
the squad.
About thirty men have been out
every day, and prospects for n win

in the season. AS is generally the case,
many OF last years stars are not back

long season ahead
With only a week longer before the
annual opening game with the Uni
Versity of Virginia, Coach Reiss de-
cidcd ,to give the men short scrim-
mage to-day. It was hot work but
tho men got into the spirit and the
ten minutes seemed very short. The
few plays that were run were very
simple, and they were gotten of with
a good deal of snap. No one was hurt.
and 1t is likely that these short scrim-
images will be held three DAYS of next
week
With the Virginia game followed by
that with Virginia Polytechnic and
then the Richmond Blues, tho Jackets
VIII get plenty of hard work before

to be hoped that going up against
