University Notes

I This winter s series Of interclass bas.
ketball games was formally opened YES.
terday afternoon in the university gym.
nasium when the sophomores walloped
the juniors by the decisive score of 80
/ to l3.
The game was thriller to watch, fol
varsity squad men being eliminated by
the rules, only athletic material of a
mediocre nature was allowed to play.
The sea Of arms and legs sprawling in
every direction was so tempestueus q
spectacle as the good old gladiatorial
fights of yore. Fouls and super fouls
by the enthusiastic rival players result.
cd in some grand old mixups which We're
glorious to behold. Horseshoe ringers
and dramatic lightning passes distin-
guished the conflict at various stages,
though the sophomores greatly outplav-
ed their opponents. Every man a star
stemed to he the spirit of the game and
that he was, every spectator attests af
firmatively.
The score at the close of the first
half was 10 to Z in the sophomores'
favor. Sparks of the nineteeners was
star extraordinary with is points to his
credit.
The complete schedule for the series
is to be announced later.

WHAT WILL THE TRADE BRING i?

The legislature has considerable task before it if one
half the proposed consolidation and merging of offices
suggested takes the shape of bills and come before it. 1t
is perhaps true that consultations could be made
that would prove Improvement the present ar
rangement but it is hardly probable that ALL or even
large portion of them would be- 1t appears on the face
Of most Of these proposed consultations that two or
three commissions to be done away with and the work
performed by deputies and special officers in some other
department Apparently the savings, if any, will be
accomplished will be the placing of the abolished depart
ment in the hands of else who may not do the
work any better or any more cheaply
The latest suggestion of this kind to place the state
fair management the livestock department. horticulture
and everything else that pertains in any way to the
farm under commission. Of course this commission
will have to employ larger number of clerks, deputies
and help generally than any of the commissions or
boards which it absorbs Whether it will make the work
less expensive not does not appear the face of the
suggestions.
1t is understood that committee has been appointed
by both branches of the legislature to examine into
and report as to the advisabty Of making these COM
binations Until this is done intelligent understand
ing of the matter possible for until this report is filed
just what is proposed to be DONE what if any savings can
be made and how there is foundation upon which to
base an argument. Doing away with commissioner to
employ deputy or something else or another clerk
whose salary would be as large that of the deposed
official is not going to get the legislature anywhere to-
ward a solution of the matter
There has been great and loud cry against 'innum-
cradle boards and commissions" but those who would
dispense with their services admit that they neces
say for they provide for someone else doing the same
work If the committee show the consolidation will
be saving give better service then by all means lett
them go
At tn time it is well not to jump out of the fry

POINTS WAY
FOR PEACE PROPOSALS

q sibly only with some form of interna.

tional law and treaties for preventing
or limiting hostilities.
Balfour s communication is held to be
suggestion that President Wilson s
sphere of activity for the present at
least, should be limited to laying the
groundwork for some such international
force.
In the meantime the entente re-avows
its purpose to renew or weaken "exist-
ing causes of international unrest'' in
Europe and attempt to create popular
dissatisfaction over methods pursued by
the central powers.
Balfour admits the difficulty in ac-
compishing the aims but declares dur
able peace possible only in their full.
fillment, fortified by Joint action of
civilized nations to enforce peace, once
it is attained.
President Wilson favors use of both
arms of the country 3 defense to insure
peace III spite of recent reports that he
telt such league should be armed with
only moral suasion
The president recently described to
some friends his ideas on the subject
by saying he favored an international
peace patrol' of sufficient strength to
say "no" when war threatened and to
show the would-be aggressors that the
