NATIO

The entire country stopped work to
celebrate when a false report that

was made public by the United Press
Association. The elections resulted

Washington to vote, on account Of
war conditions. Andrew D. White.

st. Johns Gets Date.

Western Maryland fought for the
date just before Thanksgiving, de-
claring it had defeated ST. Johns two
years in succession and deserved a
post closer to the honor position.
st. Johns, however, was originally
carded for that day, so the only solu-
ton was to bill both teams for the
same day.
A coin was tossed, and Byrd called
the turn for the privilege of playing
st. Johns in the opener.
Never before have the rival officials
shown such a great desire to CO.
operate and it has been practically
agreed that all of the contests for the
Maryland championship next fall will
be played at Homewood
BY that plan Baltimoreans will be
furnished splendid attraction each
Saturday during the short season, for
when Hopkins is playing contests
abroad other Maryland favorites will
be battling on the varsity gridiron.

Why Report Passed New York.

Secretary Daniels also explained how
the report got through the chief naval
censor at New York. He said, when
the cablegram from Howard and
Simms reached New York, the chief
censor was in Washington, and an as
sistant handled the dispatch. The lat
ter put his o. K. on it because it had
been passed by the French censor at
Brest and by the British censor in
London.
It is known that Secretary Daniels
feels that in a matter of such worldwide
importance as the signing of an armis-
tice. there should have been communi-
cation with his Office in Washington.
A telephone wire between the naval
censor's office in New York and the Sec
retary's Office in Washington is kept up
twenty-four hours Of the day, SO that
immediate communication is possible al
ways. II the naval censor at New York
had notified him. Secretary Daniels
would have taken it up with Secretary
Lansing and would have cahled to
France for confirmation

"END-0E-WAR" FAKE
MAY NOT Be PROBED
Rear Admiral Wilson's Announce
ment Relieves, situation-second
Message to q. P. Held Up.

With the announcement by Rear Ad-
miral Henry B. Wilson. commander of
the American naval forces in French
waters, with headquarters at Brest, that
he had heard the reI ,rt that Germany
had agreed to the armistice terms and
passed it along to the United Press
correspondents. it appears that any
formal investigation into the transmits
sion of the now notorious cable mes
sage which caused the premature cele-
bration of peace will not be pressed.
Rear Admiral Wilson in cabling to
Secretary Daniels of the Navy that he
had told the United Press correspond
ent that he had heard the report that the
armistice had been signed did not give
the source of his information, but
Secretary Daniels said he expected to
hear later from the admiral on this
subject.

No Court-Martial Likely.

A suggestion that Rear Admiral
Wilson might have to face q court
martial in connection with the matter
was dismissed as ungrounded when
Secretary Daniels indicated that MOTH
ing would come of the matter, as Ad-
miral Wilson is regarded as one of the
best officers in the Navy.
The Secretary spoke highly of the
spirit of the admiral in promptly COM
ing forward and relieving the CORE
spondents of the United Press of the
entire blame for the false armistice
reports. He said:
Rear Admiral Wilson is one of the
best officers in the world. AS soon as
the statement came that the informa-
ton of the signing of the armistice
had come from a naval officer at Brest,
the Navy Department cabled Admiral
Wilson. He replied that he had heard
that the armistice had been signed and
had repeated it. He said he thought
the report was correct"

as VaIiantIy as Ever.

BALTIMORE, Md. November o.
Marylands collegiate foot ball title
will be fought for as valiantly this
season as ever before, and the series
while shortened a bit, will be just as
strenuous as any ever played in times
Of peace. Moreover, all of the remain
ing contests will be played at Home
wood Field and the opener will be
staged this afternoon by the Western
Maryland and State elevens. The
schedule follows:
Today-Western Maryland VS.. State

Johns.

Hopkins VS.. Western Maryland.
Thanksgiving day-State VS.. Hop
kins.
The program was adopted yesterday
afternoon at a meeting of coaches and
athletic officials representing Hop
kins. state, st. Johns and western
Maryland. which was held in Gill
man Hall, Homewood. States dele
gates were Coach Curley Byrd and
Capt. Benz, Coach Johnny Wilson and
St. Johns interests; Coach Sam Tur-
ner represented Western Maryland
and Lieut. Preston and Manager Har-
old Stewart acted for Hopkins.
True SportsmansIip.
There was quite a tangle, one which
threatened to break up the race for
the championship, but st. Johns made
the sacrifice and Hopkins held out the
glad hand which made everything pos
sible. The Annapolitans were sched-
uled to play State here on Thanksgiv-
ing day. and il was believed that they
would not care about passing up that
date. but when the showdown came
Wilson and Grove displayed real
craftsmanship and agreed to step
aside, admitting that State, the cham
pion. had the right to the choice date
ON the Black and Blue calendar. 1t
was a fine thing for the st. Johns
men to do. and it was appreciated by
every one. Such an attitude toward
the collegiate championship race is
! bound to bring the annual foot ball
, series up to a higher standard than it
ever reached before.

TODAY'S AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspic-
uous thing about US and is proba-
bly, the most easily damaged by bad
or careless treatment. If we are very
careful in hair washing, we will have
virtually no hair troubles. An especi-
ally fine shampoo for this weather,
one that brings out all the natural
beauty of the hair; that dissolves and
entirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt: can easily be used at
trifling expense by simply dissolving
a teaspoonful of Canthrox (Which you
can get at any druggist's) in a cup
of hot water. This makes a full cup
of shampoo liquid-enough so it is
easy to apply it to all the hair instead
of just the top of the head. This
chemically dissolves all impurities and
creates a soothing, cooling lather.
Rinsing leaves the scalp spotiessly
clean, soft and plant, while the hair
takes on the glossy richness of natural
color, also a fluffiness which makes it
seem much heavier than it is After
Canthrox shampoo, arranging the
hair is a Observation-Disclosures

Careless Use of Soap
Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully.
if you want to keep your hair look
ing its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much aikaii.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle. and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless). and is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
it in. 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather. which rinses out east
ly removing every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and il
leaves the scalp soft. and the hair fine
and silky, bright, lustrous. fluffy and
