Captain Wright's TCan Defeats Cap tain Jollnson's Quintet in Mixed Match 1t Aetna Alleys.

The Wrights and the Johnsons clashed again last evening in thelr alley feud, and when the smoke of battles had passed away, it was found that the Wrights were on the right side of the fence, defeating their opponents thrice. Captain Wright and Mrs. Johnson featured for tho victors. Miss Brown and Fred John- son were the star performers for the losers.

AH-Star Teams.

The suggestion that two all-star teams be picked from the American and Naional leagues each season to play out a championship series would soon start an uprising of wierd and unseemly proportions. Who would be found to agree on any but few, In our opinion, Buck Herzog was the most valuable infielder of the year last season-an all-around star of excep- tiOnal glow.
 Yet one of the best baseball critics we know declined to put Herzog on bis all-star infeld.

It is likely that the bowling-on- the-green proposition, which the Burns club has been considering, for several months, will not be real ized until next spring. There was considerable difficulty experienced in securing the proper site for the out door sport and it is not believed that it will be possible to push the plan through this fall.

By ending the first half July Fourth and starting a new campaign the day after there would be a certainty of general interest until September, any way.

Two years can produce quite a change. Since that date Cornell has come to the crest of the summit, with a fair chance of repeating this fall. Penn under Bob Folwen, is on her way back in a hurry with the scalp of Penn State in her grip.
 Michigan has shown more power than in some time, with promise of letter days ahead. The change has teen sufficient to make the Michigan Penn, the Michigan-Cornell and the Penn-Cornell games to assume more interest than they have known for many drifting seasons. And this triple-coated interest will be all the greater if Cornell hangs another knockout upon Harvard's jaw this inn pending Saturday.

The committee from the Civic

the best kind of boxes and baskets.
AS soon as the committee Of which
Miss Caroline Baldwin is chairman,
secures this necessary information, it

the merchants themselves. There are
several things which must be consid-

hanging baskets as well, and in order
to have the display uniform. one
style will be adopted.
No special flower has been selected
for the baskets. Some Of the mer-
chants who have planned window
boxes are following the example of
other cities and are using geraniums.
1t is understood that these are not
the most suitable plants for such use.

Dandruff Soon
Ruins The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy. silky hair, do by al!
means get rid of dandruf, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruf is to dissolve
this, get about four ounces 81 ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to mois stem the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find. too. that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop. and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is Inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

RUSSIAN TROOPS
SENT TO FRANCE
Explanation 10 That it was Oone 70
Support conscription'sts
Of England.

rBy ] w. T. Mason. Written for the
United Press.]
NEW YORK, April 21.-The land
ing Of Russian troops in France to
narticinate in the fighting along the
western front, is probably an effort
tn support the out and out conscrlp-
tionists in England.
Russia cannot spare SUFFICIENT
force from her own battle rronts 10
cause any material change In the
military situation in France. But
eyen a small body OF Slavs con-
tributed to France must exert q pow
erful moral influence in Great Britain
at a time when the British ministry
is threatening to break up over the
question of impressing more men Tor
the French front.
Since the Beginning Of the Verdun
offensive the British have assisted
the French by taking over the west
ern front from Arras to the Somme.
This has released probably 100000
French troops for operations at YER
dun, but there has been no actual
help extended by the British army
SO far as known. The reason Tor this,
probably. is that the present number
of British soldiers under arms does
not permit an extension OF the Brit
ish front beyond its present length.
To contribute still further to the al
lies military strength in the western
area, Great Britain must have more
men. The appearance OF Russians IN
France emphasizes the difficulties the
British government IL experiencing in
keeping up its reserves.

Disgusting Situation.
staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, April 21.-What
Carranzista troops, now moving
south from Chihuahua, intend to do'
is the big, outstanding element OF the
Mexican situation today.
Privately, officials admitted the
situation is, to say the least, dis.
ouieting. The Carranzistas are not
sufficiently strong to cause serious
trouble. but their ranks may grow as
they proceed. Apparently, they de-
sire to check any further southwark
move Of General Pershing's riders.
But Pershing is not in positioh
now to move much further below
his present location, inasmuch as his
communication lines have been
stretched until their elasticity Is
gone.
Authorities still believe the Car
ranzistas are cooperating or at least
acuuiescing in American movements
in Mexico. The troop movement
from Chihuahua. though, Is evidently
a stem over which the government
had no control. For this reason IL
is the graver.
Officials feel the American column
can gave good account OF itsen'
even against extremely great odds,
but the administration frankly hopes
NO such test may be necessary.
The cabinet considered the mes
sage telling of the Chihuahua step
az we'll as other reports OF recent
activities. No withdrawal was planned
until General Scott chief OF STALL
reports.
