til midnight next Wednesday of the
proposed walkout Of 5000 employees of
the company were sent to the locals to-
night by International Vice President
L. c. eraser and representatives of
the organized telephone girls and cleo
trical workers after three hour con-
ference. In q statement issued by this
committee the hope was expressed that
before that date "the company officials
will see the error of their ways and
grant the telephone operators the right
to deal collectively and that men who
are employed be granted wage some

ployes up and down the Pacific coast"
WALkoUT WAS EXPECTED.
Until this recommendation was
made 1t had been generally believed
that the union operators and electrical
workers over the company's entire
system would walk out at midnight to-
night following the statement of D. p.
Fullerton, general manager of the
company, today refusing fatty to re-
cognize or negotiate with any union

announced that the company had Of

that there will not be a strike forth
with. They said that the locals have
the power to act as they see fit and
that 1t is "up to them now to decide
what to do" The feeling was, how
ever, that the recommendations would
be generally accepted and the strike
postponed until next Wednesday mid
night
The conference committee statement
to the public tonight urged everyone to
bring pressure to bear on the telephone
company in an endeavor to persuade
the company to grant the telephone OPP
orators demands.

Chicago. and Illinois Remain
Factors in Conference
Race by Winning From

Respectively.

Chicago, Oct. 27.-The big football
teams of the country upset the dope
today-by playing according to dope.
The only notable exception was
Michigan, which surprised its own fol-
lowers by walloping Nebraska with
20 to score.
The western conference situation re-
mains unchanged, Chicago and Illinois
remaining in the championship race
by defeating Northwestern and Pur-
due, respectively Ohio state, last
years title holder, played minor col
lege, while Minnesota was idle.
The titular possibilities appear to
rest between Ohio State and Illinois,
with Minnesota the proverbial dark
horse"
cHIcAGo's SHOWING POOR.
The fact that Chicago was held TO
one touchdown by the demoralized
purple eleven gives the maroons only
an outside chance.
Michigan, although number of the
conference, came back into the fold
too late to include any of the con-
ference teams in it's schedule, except
Northwestern.
An eastern championship, with Yale.
Harvard and Princeton playing only
bush league games, just naturally
"aint.''
The smaller colleges in that section,
however, have been raising havoc with
the big uns" for some years back and
1t isn't at all improbable that they
will manage to arrange some sort of
title among themselves.
Pittsburg, which was generally
conceded to have the strongest team
In the country last year, just man
aged to squeeze out IA to win over
Pennsylvania.
Brown defeated Colgate by the mar
gin of one goal from touchdown. Cor
nell ran rings around Bucknell and
the Army Navy, Princeton and
! Dartmouth all Won their games. Will
tams upset Columbia 8 to 6.
NoTRE DAME WINS EASILY.
Notre Dame gave South Dakota a
trimming. Mount Union defeated
Case, Marquette scalped the Haskell
Indian, Kansas beat Ames, Detroit
trimmed the Michigan Aggies and
Missouri manhandled Drake.
Rice sprung the surprise in the
Southwest by beating Texas, 10 to 0.
At the same time, the Texas Aggies
were, winning from Louisiana, 81 to 0.
Henry Kendall, the pigmy Oklahoma
school, which last year had one of
the strongest teams in the country,
lost to Arkansas. 10 to 7.
The Western title Is liable to be
two sided affair, at that. If Michigan
goes through It's schedule with a clean
slate and then wins from Northwest
ern, by good margin. the Wolverines
can dispute the claims of the confer
snce champion.
MISSOURI VALLEY GAMES.

TO ADJOURN AUG. 1-15
Lots of Work Still on Program of
Wilson's War Congress-.

Washington, June 25.-Congress
will adjourn between August 1 and
August Is, Majority Leader Kitchin
predicted today IN the house.
The house, he supplemented, will
begin this week to take three recesses,
in order to give the less speedy senate
chance to catch up.
Consideration of the $4,000, 900
rivers and harbors bill was resumed
today. Kitchin said he expected this
to be passed tomorrow or Wednesday.
This is the way he summarized the
rest of the program:
Dispose of the priority shipment
bill, empowering the president to die
tate to railroads what classes of ship
mentS shall have precedence; the
trading with-the-enemy act; bill to
increase the membership of the inter-
state commerce commission and sew
eral minor bills-and late Wednesday
cesses.
Two Weeks to Prepare Food Bill.
1t will take perhaps two weeks for
the senate to prepare the food bill for
conference, he stated. The revenue
bill, he said, will take three or four
weeks. Members, he believes, could
&c home for at least two weeks in
safety.
How about the $500, 100000 aero
plane bill?" asked a member.
That ought to take about half a
day." Kitchin responded.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Some Meatless Recipes.

The dishes that can be made with
out meat as an ingredient or with the
use of a very little meat for flavor are
amazing in their variety and practi-
caIly ineXhausti Die in number. Not
only can the housekeeper reduce the
high cost of living by eliminating
meat almost entirely, but she can i'm
prove the general family health at the
same time.
To be sure, it takes much less time
simply to put a chop or a steak on
the broiler and turn it over a few
times until it is ready for service, but
the conscientious housekeeper will
take a real interest in providing suit
able nourishment for her family and
be quite willing to give to the prep
aration of food more time than this.
The proper cooking and serving of
meatless foods will take some thought
a little extra time in the preparation,
because daintiness is the chief asset.
Macaroni au Gratin-Break eight

RED CROSS NOTES

The committee of 100 workers of
the local campaign met with exper-
fences of all kinds. In converse
ton, round-table style, held at noon
today at the Chamber of Commerce,
three men were telling IF their calls
One, a big, prosperous banker, name
deleted, told of a smudgy listed news
boy who approached him, gave him
paper free, and asked if the Red Cross
would accept a nickel from 'newsy.
In return the little kiddie asked for
red button and wanted to know if his
contribution could be given to Broth
er BILL if he got ''shotted."
Another man, equally as large, and
possibly as prosperous, told of meeting
a brother and sister in Chesney park
He was wearing his worker" badge
Both kiddies ran to him and begged
that he accept $1.00 from each of
them to give to some wounded little
boy in Belgium.
The third worker volunteered with
the line of stories and began to tell
of a widowed colored woman, who
had been taking in washing. She
came to the worker, all grinS and
twisting, and asked if she might con-
tribute $1.00 10 the suffin' sojer.
Then she grew bold and told of her
son, who was then cutting lawn.
The pay for his services was to help
another "sojer." And the money did
come in, too.
And then the whole crowd of pros
porous business men went away, still
talking of how funny it was that the
needy people were the ones that real
ly were doing the heavy contributing.
One Industrious little worker who
turned in S22 was Gene Stotts, jr., son
of Gene Stotts of the state hospital.
Young Stotts, who is just eight years
old, saw his father working and asked
for some cards. He was given them,
and when he reported back had made
his total collection of $22 without as
