fleet dares not show itself in the
North sea for a decisive battle with
the British fleet. so the United States
navy could add nothing to the sur

exercise over the seas.
However, the British might be en-
abled through the use of the Ameri-
can fleet, to recall all the ships which
they now have in the Atlantic and
Pacific adjacent to America and leave
the work OF patrolling these waters
to the American navy. If such were
done, the British would have at least
90 or 10 more ships available for
submarine hunting purposes about
the British isles.
The United States navy might also
be used for convoy purposes, but this
is regarded as impractical. 1t would
be necessary to have all American
merchant ships travel in groups. ii

Mexico Puts Ban on
Regulation Bull Fights

Mexico City, June 1.-Regulation
bull fights now are prohibited in
Mexico by DEGREES of President Car
rama but, recently, contests in which
the bull is not killed, known as mo-
Villadas," have been sanctioned.
These have not been particularly
popular with the bull fight enthusi-
asts who regard them much in the
same light that baseball fanatics IN
the United States regard q ball game
in which no batter was allowed to
do anything but bunt.
A delegation of society women in
terested in Red Cross work called on
General Carranza recently and re-
quested that he sanction a contest
for the benefit of the Red Cross in
which the bull would be killed They
explained that it was feared that if
only the denatured performance were
advertised the receipts of the benefit
performance would not greatly swell
the treasury of the Red Cross Gen.
eral Carranza declined to comply
with the request.

AMERICANS DRILL

Oxford, England, June 1. - The
first drill or parade of American
students taking the voluntary mill
tary course here took place this af-
ternoon. A platoon was organized.
Although the training is being given
by British officers, no obligation has
been incurred to join the British
army. 1t is expected that the pla-
toon will be recognized by the Amer
lean War Department and that the
members will be transferred to the
American army or expeditionary
force at the most conenient time.
The London embassy has cabled on
behalf of the members requesting
such recognition.

TIMELY
BY BUD KOLwEL

The summer course will open at
Reservoir Park next Saturday. The
greens are in fine condition, as Skin
nk' and Mac have devoted their en-
tire time in getting them into shape
Tommy Gautt, who has enlisted for
Uncle Sam, will be missed.
We also miss the Rev. Or. Ellis n.
Kreamer. He can play around as fast
and better than many of the younger
men.
H. E. Ehlers is a new recruit and
doing remarkably well for a beginner.
Sauers has new stance; and Karl
Richards young son, Karl Jr., cad
died for him this afternoon.
Pavord and Tommy Devine recently
divided honors, going around in 80.
Hollinger and Young of the State
Department made everybody sit up
and take notice. For distance Prof
Reese can challenge Chick Evans.
We are glad to see that the ladies
are becoming enthusiastic over the
game. The promising players are Miss
Laign, Miss Seaman, Mrs. Rothrock
Mrs. Binz and Miss Ruth Starry.
Mr.. Soutter presented the club with
a beautiful American flag.
Too much credit cannot be given
Grant Forrer and his force of men
for the condition of the park and the
almost perfect nine-hole golf course
1t is surprising to me the people of
Harrisburg do not appreciate this
more. There isn't a course around
here to compare with it.
If you wish to join the club in the
park and secure the privileges it Of

your eye on the ball.

School Notes
TECH

Members of the Tech Mandolin
Club held their last meeting of the
year in the school auditorium, and
after practice elected officers for the
year. Those to receive the honors
includes Albert Michael, '19, presi-
dent: Fred Essig, Is. vice-president;
Lloyd Cole, Is, secretary; Henry
Young, '19, treasurer.
During the year thirty students of
Tech became members of the Or
ganization that had its beginning
during the past winter. The con-
cert given several weeks ago was a
big success and netted the members
a large return.
Students of the school are elated
over the showing of the track team
at Easton on Memorial Day. The
Maroon athletes were but two points
back of the winners, who were not
a high school but a preparatory
school In the high school class
Tech was big winner, scoring seven
points more than her nearest oppon-
ent. With several of her best men
who were out because of scholastic
conditions, and Eyster, who is sick,
Tech would have been a sure win
ner.

Censorship Fight Lost
by Administration When
House Kills Measure
BY Associated Prcss

Washington, May 81. - The ad-
ministration's fight for a war cen
sorship on newspapers was lost in
Congress yesterday, at least for the
present, when the House refused by
vote of 1874 to 144 to accept even
the modified censorship section
written into the espionage bill in
conference. The Senate already is
on record as opposed to a censor
ship, and leaders in Congress do not
expect any further administration eff
fort to enact one of the immediate
future.
The test in the House came on a
motion to recommit the espionage
bill with instructions that the CEN
sorship regulation be eliminated.
Despite a determined attempt of
Democratic managers to line up the
party strength behind President Will
sons demand for censorship, thirty
seven Democratic representatives
joined the Republicans voting for
the motion. Eleven Republicans,
disregarding their party's caucus de-
cision, voted in the negative.

SOME HINTS TO
YOUNG SHOOTERS
Field Shots Are Apt Pupils at
Traps; Gun knowledge
Valuable

Edward Banks has written an inter-
ner in the trapshooting sport A part
is as follows:
There are, strictly speaking, two
classes of beginners among those who
start shooting at clay pigeons thrown
from traps. and these two classes are
about as widely different as they
could possibly be.
"One class (and quite large one)
Is made up of field shots. more or less
expert. men accustomed to and skilled
in the handling of shotguns. From
the ranks of such have come most
of the best trap shots in the world,
men who have made wonderful rec
ords and demonstrated what hand and
eye can do when backed up by per-
fection in gun and ammunition. With
beginner of this class but few
hints are necessary.
Much to BE learned
with the other class. however. the
beginner pure and simple-the man.
woman or child who perhaps has
never had a gun in hand before, much
has to be learned before the novice
graduates and becomes an expert. In
this class are many town and city
bred men, who have all the qualifica-
tions so far as hand and eye are con-
cerned, who may excel or hold their
own with others at billiards. tennis
etc, but who have never had an op-
portunity to become acquainted with
a gun. Given the chance and the nee
essary amount of practice. there is no
reason why they should not find
places high up in the ranks of the eX-
perts"
