RICHMOND, 2; NEW CASTLE, I

Polo history was recorded at the
Coliseum last night, when the Muncie
and Richmond teams, both in the game
to win. mauled Gather other for three
periods and some thirty-seven minutes
over time before the Quakers finally
gained the decision.
The fact that Richmond remained in
the game long enough for Harrison
Fry to slip over the good night goal
was due entirely to the wonderful
work of Billy Blount, Richmond's kid
goal tend. Blount had ninety-one
stops and that number will speak for
itself
To the big crowd it seemed that
Muncie had a wide edge on the of.
fensive. Blount and Griffith were the
only Quakers who played in form.

The defense Of Blount and Griffith
saved Richmond time after time.
Richmond scored the first one in
the first period after three minutes of
play. Griffith to Fry to o. Quigley
was the route.
Muncie e,ened it in the second
frame. FahIner on a rebound from
the armor of Blount recorded Mum
cie's only goal. A few minutes later
an in-and-out, Farmers bad luck,
saved Richmond.
Both teams had more or less
chances to break it up after the con-
test had grown into overtime. Mum
Gle especially threatened to take it
every other minute, but Blount always
objected.
Fry's curtain drive was quick snap

Unpatriotic citizens in Tacoma
will find themselves mighty un-
popular after congress declares
war.
Commissioner Petit and Police
Chief Harry NJ. Smith united in an
announcement Tuesday that any
display of pro-German sentiment
inside the city limits would result
In immediate arrest.
81 agree with Mayor Mitchell of
New York when he says that all
persons in America belong to one
of two classes-Americans or trail
tors" declared Commissioner Pet
tit.
81 believe President Wilson has
done absolutely right. don't see
how any patriotic citizen can feel
otherwise. II there is anyone in
Tacoma of pro-German senti-
ments, he had better keep mighty
ments, or he will land in jail"
The Tacoma police learned
Tuesday of a small German col
ony at Ashford which is reported
to have been agitating anti-Ameri-
can sentiment.
Federal officers were at once
dispatched to the mountain town,
and it was reported that all of the
Germans would be arrested and
brought to Tacoma.
Commissioner Petit announced
that he was ready to swear in
large numbers of special police
men to guard Tacoma's waterfront
and factory district, If such pro.
tetcion were found necessary.
Special orders were given out
Tuesday by Police Chief Smith to
all policemen, instructing them to
prevent any unpatriotic demon
stration, to watch all persons who
might be suspected as German
sympathizers, to prevent any col
lection of munitions or explosives,
and to disband any group of agita-
tors which might gather in the
city. These orders conform to a re-
quest from the department of JUS
tice, which asked that the Taco
ma police cooperate in preventing
any anti-American outbreak here.
Policemen were instructed to
arrest any person advocating the
German policy, or any one Great
ing an agitation.
Commissioner Petit announced
Tuesday that his son, Gordon Pet
tit, an instructor at the Moran
private school on cambridge
island, had offered his services to
the government. Young Petit
has eye trouble, and probably
would not be called for first line
service.
Max Garretson, secretary to the
commissioner, sent word to the
government Tuesday that he was
ready to give his services in any
branch that Uncle Sam might
want him.

With several carloads of equip

WASHINGTON, April 3.-The
problem of financing Americas

directly before President Wilson

a war sustained 80 far as may be
equitable" by the present genera
ton, "by well-conceived taxation"
the president declared in his mes
sage.
1t is not the presidents inten-
ton to shift the burden to future
generations.
TT would be most unwise" the
president said, Ito base the credits
which will now be necessary en-
tirely on money borrowed. 1t is
our duty to protect our people so
far as We may against the very
serious hardships and evils which
would likely arise out of the In
flation which would be produced
by vast loans"
f.All will be made to share in the
sacrifice necessitated by the war,
but 1t is evident that the admins
tration has in mind a plan of tax
ing heavily enormous incomes of
the rich.

the last detail.
Every ship of the reserve, for
which men could be secured by
taking men from the navy yards,
training stations or other land du-
ties, has been put into commission
and the new men who are coming
from the training stations are be-
ing put into shape by most inten-
sive drills and training so that
they may be put on the ships and
set at active duty at once.
At the present time there ap-
pears to be little chance that the
battle fleet will meet any of the
German battle fleet. The first
business in hand is defending the
ports on the Atlantic coast against
submarine attack. For this pur-
pose the smaller craft are much
more useful than the larger ships.
The latter, however, can help
greatly by RELYING some of the
British cruisers which have been
doing duty in the vicinity of the
American ports, but could be used
to advantage in channel and Medi-
terranean waters.

Chairman Chamberlain of the

Awake! Awake! Awake!
Let us arise and shake
Free Of our slOth and ease!
A horror is on the seas,
A menace is on the land;
Savagery, coldly planned,
Ravages sea and sod,
And bathing in flood on flood
Of innocent blood
Bellows, 1--WE fight for God!'
Awake! Awake! Awake!
For all humanity's sake;
This is no common strife,
This is fight for life
With a blood-mad host that schemes
To strangle our hopes and dreams,
With foe that has shown no ruth,
But trample down faith and truth,
And glutted with hate, blasphemes,
Saying, 1.-The path we trod
Is made at the hest of God''
Awake! Awake Awake!
For all that we loves at stake
All we have toiled and sought for,
All that our fathers fought for,
Let all our strength be hurled
InuO the tlCan Tray;
We fight for better day
That Justice may rule-not fear,
And all that we hold most dear
May live in a nobler world!
Prepare! Prepare! Prepare!
Now is no time to pirate,
Dawdle, and talk and wait;
This is the hour Of fate!
Summon the Nation might.
Call ON us all to share
Let the whole land unite!
In the war that is ours to make,
Till the blight that we fight is gone
And we thrill to the golden dawn
Of a world that is free-and fair
