New Haven, Conn.,, Feb. 15.-Be- tween twenty-two and twenty-three hundred people crowded the doors of Vsoolsey Hall at last nights Red Cross the ten days campaign for a city Red Cross membership of 10000. The meeting was characterized by a man prominent in the affairs of the uni versity as one of the most enthusi- astically received and altogether suc- cessul affairs of its kind that be had ever seen.
 After the Rev. Robert c. Denison's Star Spangled Banner" President Hadley, who presided. prefaced his in troduction of Albert Staub. director of the Atlantic Division of the Red Cross, by a few words on the all-around ef- f1cency of the organization as a unit.
 MT. Staub addressed the meeting in part as follows: "The Red Cross has at present at it's command a great into action from every part of the country in case of national disaster. If we went to war, however, many homes in this audience would feel the effects Innumeralble kinds of relief work have to be done. Perhaps the one in which you are most interested is that of military relief work-the base hospitals.
 Let me explain to you exactly what these base hospitals are: Each con- tains 500 patients. The equipment of one would fill seven freight cars. Many supplies are donated to the hos pitals, but there is still a great need for more.
 'In case of war the entire per sonnel of one of these base hospitals would be able to go direct to the front. All the. members are we'll acquainted with one another. At present in New York we have half a dozen hospital units, all packed, all ready to be sent out in case of war, This is com forting.
 There are many other things the Red Cross has done for preparing us for war. A new wave of patriotism is sweeping over the country. Ameri- cans still foster the hope of aiding their native land.
 Those in charge of the work. how ever will never become fully prepared until every American gets behind the work and gives it his support. The New Haven chapter has done some splendid work. Many times at the Bush terminal have I seen well-fill- ed cases coming from New Haven.
 But although the New Haven chapter is well organized and pre- pared. it will not be fully prepared un- til every one here tonight pledges himself as a member of the Red Cross."

 Unlike some archeologists, Dr. Fewkes does not believe that the cliff dwellers or the inhabitants of this pueblo were exterminated by their en- emies, but rather that they migrated to the plains Regarding the age of the dewllings on Mesa Verde, he is in clined to believe that they date well within the beginning of the Christian era regarding none of them as older than 1000 A. D., although he thinks man lived in that locality for some time previous.In general, the early man Of this region is believed to have first lived in the cliffs from which he hoved to the open community dwell- ings on the plateaus before migrating to the valleys where his cliff culture is still apparent among the least modified living pueblos, such as the Hopi.

. the year. Mr. Sweeney's decision does not come unexpectedly. as his con- tract at Yale was only for one year. For many years MT. Sweeney has been Hill, but for the last year he has been spending his leave of absence as ad- visor of Yale athletics. The agree ment with the Yale authorities, which Dwight Meigs. headmaster at the Hill, provided that he should be away on Q leave of absence for only year from the school with which he has been so long and so successfully iden- tifed. Great as must be the regret with which Yale sees MT. Sweeney severing his official connection with the athletics in the university it must be realized that at The Hill. MT. Sweeney is serving Yale in no small field, turning out athletes like Tom Shevlin, 1906; M. H. Bowman, 1905 s; F. T. Francis 1912, famous football player and track star; Jesse Spalding 1913. captain of the football team and J. w. Overton, 1917.
 A permanent organization of college trained technical men to aid the nation in the event of war or other national emergency was inaugurated at the first meeting of the Intercollegiate In- telligence Bureau, which was held at the New Willard hotel last Monday. Yale was represented by Prot Joseph
 
 School and Dickinson W. Richards, 1917. The fifty college delegates met to cooperate in the preparation of data showing the names of American college students and alumni having ''the characteristics, th0<training and the willingness to enter the service of the United States Government in time of actual or expected war" The func- ton of the newly established bureau is t obe distinct from that of the Council of National Defence, which as an ad- visory intelligence bureau merely pro- vides machinery to fulfil government needs. The organization is unique in the history of the world. The plans provide for a salaried secretary at Washington, and also for an adjutant with a committee active in as many colleges, technical schools, and uni- versailles possible. The central to be established in Washington will be in direct touch with the War and Navy departments. Subcommittee will be formed in the different colleges and universities. and these latter will enroll men of special training and will ascertain their willingness to serve when called. It is expected that most of the actual work will be done by the individual college committees, and that the Washington department will act merely as a sort of clearing house. This morning the delegates met Sec retaries Baker and Daniels. Both were heartily in accord with the idea of the bureau.
