COLLEGE NOTES.

On Saturday evening, March 5th,
two basket ball games were played in
our gymnasium. The first game was
with the Freshmen Class of New Ulm
High. The first half was indeed very
one sided as the High School only
succeeded in getting two points, whereas
our team got comparatively large
number although the half lacked two
minutes, which was loss to the College
team of two points. The second half
was in favor OF the high school. The
reporter of the game in the preceding
number of the Review undoubtedly
made mistake due to poor Judgment
in stating that the Freshmen averaged
about two feet smaller to the man than
their opponents. The result of the
game is shown by the following score:

Maurice Dougher acted as host to
the members of the Freshmen basket
ball team at wiener feed'' on his
birthday anniversary last Monday night.
Shamrocks and Tipperary formed the
background for the occasion for decora-
lions and the entertainment. The Fresh
men boys demonstrated that they are
as proficient in eating as in playing
basketball, while Nibs started as usual
with the highest score.

LECTURE BY BUNCE.

About one hundred people listened
to very instructive lecture Monday
evening by Martin Bunge, editor of
the "Amerikanische Turnzeitung at the
Turner Hall lecture room. Mr.. Bunge
spoke on the subject 'The only solu-
ton of the War Problem
AS an introduction to his address he
spoke about the Turner movement in
Europe during the Revolution in 1848
and gave as factors for this revolution
the curtailments of the liberties of the
people and their oppression by and on
behalf of the State and the Church.
He stated that large number of those
who took active part in the revolution
or were affiliated with it in some way
came to America thereafter in search
of their ideal Liberty"
They did not find it in the East and
for that reason at the National Con-
vention in 1855 passed resolution
favoriing the founding of Turner Colo
MES in the West This is how it happened
that colony was founded here at New
Ulm.
Then taking up the subject under dis
cussion he made clear the position the
North-American Gymnastic Union takes
toward the war problem. In their
platform the Turner's advocate the
settlement of all international differences
by arbitration.
The causes of the present war con-
flict the speaker finds in the struggle
going on between the old and new and
looking at it from this standpoint all
nations now engaged in the war are
equally guilty in bringing it about.
For solution he advocates the organ
ization of United States OF the World
with an international congress.
The international administration ought
to adjudge all conflicts in the interest
of the different nations as long as these
are separate nations. 1t should take
care of the coinage of money. There
ought to be only one kind of money
all over the world. There ought to
be one kind of measure and weight
regulated by the International govern
ment. The International Government
also to have the highest supervision
of the postal system, telephone system,
telegraph system and all kinds of in
ternational traffic (
In the speakers opinion the Inter-
national Congress once permanently
established would prove safeguard
for all human enterprises and that
the international sentiment of, all the
people would be stronger than the power
that millions Of soldiers exert by brutal
force today. The lecture was listened
to attentively by all present and the
speaker was roundly applauded at the
close of his talk.
The meeting was presided over by
Fred Pfaender and a trio consisting
Of Mrs. w. G. Alvin, Mrs. L. G. Bell
and Mrs. Herman Helm rendered
song number at the beginning of the
programmed also another one at the end.
Mr.. Bunge left for Minneapolis yes
fterday morning where he spoke last
night. From there he goes to St.
Louis where he will deliver wquite a
number of lectures.

PREDICTS 100000 HOGS
N. p. Rogers Of South St. Paul Ex-
poets Heavy Shipments.

w expect to pay the North Da-
t farmers in 1915 about $4,000, 900
for their hogs" was the statement
made in Fargo by President N. P.
Rogers of the South st. Paul Live
Stock Exchange.
Last year." he continued, North
Dakota shipped us $4,000 hogs. From
sdvlces we receive from all parts of
North Dakota we feel safe in estimat-
ing that the total number this year
will reach 600, OO0."
The estimates of Mr.. Rogers ex-
coed Fargo estimates on total ship
ments from the state by 1OO, 900. But
live stock men say the extent to
which the farmers of North Dakota
have gone into the hog raising bust
ness comprises one of the most re
markable movements in the history
OF the industry in America. North
Dakota's corr crop, while improving
each year, is still not of the high COM
mercial value of corr of other states,
but it is just as valuable for feeding

PRESIDENT REVIEWS
ATLANTIC SQUADRON

New York, May 1S.-President
Wilson reviewed the Atlantic fleet in
the Hudson river and at a luncheon
rendered to him on shore by the city
Of New York told a distinguished
gathering Of navy officers, army off
GERS and civilians what the country
and its navy stood for. The great
hattleships that lay in the river, he
said, were engines to promote the
interests OF humanity"
The inspiring thing about Ameri-
ca" the president asserted, lis that
she asks nothing for herself, except
that what she has a right to ask for
humanity itself. We want no nations
property; we wish to question no ma
tons honor; we wish to stand sell
tishly in the way Of the development
Of the nation.

say that we are privileged to stand
for what every nation would desire to
stand for and speaking for those
things which all humanity must de.

Make Considerable Heddwdy 10
Northwest Of La BdSSee.
WIN BACK RUSSIAN GAINS
Teuton Allies Rob Cars Forces oil
Most of Territory Taken by
Them During Winter.

London, May 1S.-I'ield Marshal Sir
John French has broken his silence in
regard to the movements Of the Brit.
ish army northwest of La Bassee with
nearly Il mile into the German line.
This, together with the continuance
Of the French thrusts both north OF
Ypres and southwest Of La Bassee,
constitutes the outstanding feature of
the military situation.
Military commentators here regard
the British advance as a genuine
break OF the German line, which, if
maintained, must mean a retreat for
a considerable section of the invaders
forces.
Recapture of the bridge over the
User canal at Steenstraete by the
French deprives the Germans of their
last connection with the west side Of
the waterway. German assaults on
the British position at Ypres seem to
have spent themselves, at least for
the moment, as Field Marshal French
reports all has been quiet there for
the past tWenty-four hours.
Official reports from Petrograd do
little TO minimize the severity of the
defeat which the Russians have eX-
perienced over practically the whole
line from Central Poland to the Car
pathians. The victorious Germanic
armies have robbed the Russians of
most OF the gains of the hard winter
and early spring campaign, with the
exception OF PrZemysl, which is
closely threatened on two sides by
hostile forces.
1t is evident that the Austro-Ger.
man forces will leave nothing undone
in the attempt to force a crossing of
the River San. The Russians admit
the loss OF fifty guns during the re
treat OF their Third army in the San,
but assert that most of them were
destroyed.

NORTH DAKOTA PROSPECTING
Bank Deposits All Over the State
Are Steadily GROWING.

1t is one thing to prophesy that con-
ditions will be good, but the real proof
is in the results. We have been a y
ing for a year that North Dakota is
prosperous and that she is one of the
best states in the Union and now
bank figures come along and prove
that We have been right. Bank depos-
its all owe North Dakota are high.
AS an example the report of the
banks at Grand Forks may be quoted.
Grand Forks bank deposits a. year
ago were $3,067, $50 and they now are
S4,001,319 Total esource Of the
banks have increased about 5000, 900
in the same period.
Bankers regard this showing as
very remarkable, particularly in view
Of the fact that SO many sections of
the United States have a far different
story to tell, SO far as deposits are
concerned, and they also maintain
that the Grand Forks condition is
about the same as it is elsewhere in
North Dakota.

WHEAT ACREAGE INCREASES

Eight million acres OF wheat has
been seeded in North Dakota for the
present year. Careful and onserva
tive estimates from all parts of the
state indicate the acreage will be
Slightly in excess of those figures.
Last year the total wheat acreage
in the state was 1900, 900, hence a 10
per cent increase has been made.
Most of this increase has been in
the eastern part of the state on lands
that were in flax and other crops last
year. There has been a slight in.
crease in wheat acreage running from
. to 5 per cent in all the eastern half
OF the state, except possibly in the
Red River valley, where seeding has
been delayed. Some lands there orig.
inally intended for wheat will be seed,
cd to barley and corr when sufIi-
GENTLY dry.
The wheat conditions from the
Great Northern main line from Grand
Forks to Williston south to the South
Dakota line are practically perfect
Conditions in the counties in the
northeastern part of the state are
also favorable, but the entire north.
western section is drier than is de.
sired and the grain has been slow in
coming up. This is especially true OF
oats.
Corn acreage will easily be coo, OOC
this year, a 20 per cent increase.
Oats will remain about the same. Bar
ley shows a general decrease. Flax

fusal will throw not only the moral

terial aid to the side of the allies.
