charges Of sudden access of luxury,
he took off his coat while addressing

a number of rents in the lining which
he had cunningly emphasized by. the
use of white muslin as back

Chicago, Dec. 7.--Prohibition will
overshadow all other reform issues in
the legislatures of the Central States,
which will swing under way early next
month. Every state not already dry
will take action through the legisla-
ture.
Scores of reconstruction measures
will be brought up for consideration,

alton, revision of election laws, and
constitutional changes will be leading
issues in many states.
The Ohio legislature, overwhelming
ly dry" will have up for adoption a
statewide prohibition amendment and
legislation revamping the taxation
laws to meet the big deficit resulting
from the loss of liquor revenues.
To Follow North Dakota
In Michigan, bills will be introduced
to strengthen the state prohibition
law, to create a state budget commits
sion to pas on appropriations, and to
establish central board to purchase
supplies for state institutions.
The republicans, who will have over
whelming majorities in both houses of
the Indiana legislature, are expected
to enact laws consolidating several
small bureaus, and to establish sep
arate departments of banking and in
surance to be conducted under the
governors direction. Appointment OF
the attorney general and the state SUI
perintendent of public instruction by
the governor also is proposed. The
Kentucky legislature does not meet
this year.
One of the principal contests at the
Illinois session is expected to develop
over the federal prohibition amend
ment. The senate is dry and boil

Review Of Sports
and Athletic News

at Princeton University, commented as
follows upon the subject:
football requires a certain amount
OF time and practice to harden the
players for the annual contests on the
gridiron, otherwise 1t is dangerous
VIII the university authorities permit
the men enrolled In the military course
to participate; and, II they do will they
allow the necessary amount OF time for
practice which, the coaches say, is re-
quired for the bodily and physical safe
ty Of the players ?, The development OF
g wartime varsity will naturally not
demand as much time as our, ante-bel-
ltm 'varsities but on the other hand,
it will need more than was devoted to
practice by the infornals last fall
Possibly entertaining has been one OF
our troubles in recent years. Certainly
the informal team was most successful,
and the men who played on 1t tell us
that but very little more practice
would have put them in the pink of con-
dition.
Taking everything into considera-
ton. the authorities should be able to
find room on next years program for
football. and, what is more, for all
forms Of intercollegiate sport. The
power to determine Princeton's war
time athletic policy is in their hands.
We trust, however, that their decision
in this and in all matters which have
10 do with purely undergraduate In
terests will not be made without due
regard to undergraduate opinions

Odd Accident Near erandvlew.

Grandview, June 5.-One OF the
most unusual auto accidents re-
ported in this locality occurred early
Sunday morning. Two men were
speeding along the highway about
three miles south Of here with the
view of getting away from an APP
preaching storm, when their large car
overturned pinning both of the mel
beneath it. The road had become slick
from the slight rain. I. was about 3
a. m. when the accident occurred and
not until one Of the men managed by
digging away the earth with pen
knife and his hands to extricate him
self and summon help were they re-
leased. Mr.. Jacob Benz, a farmer Nv
ing near came TO the rescue and the
car was rishted. The men sustained
number Of bruises but other than that
were not injured The car was still
able to run and the two returned to
their home in Davenport. without CIV
ing out their names. They were en-
route for Mount Pleasant and Fairfield
where they intended to visit with rel
atives.

Iowa Innovation May Be Extended to
Adjacent States.
Iowa City, June 5.-F'irst word Of the
reception by the Iowa boys in France
of the vermin-proof garments, made by
women at various points in the state
and chemically treated by the state
university, was included in recent
letter from Maurice Miller, son of
Homer Miller. of Des Moines, the man
who is directing the war savings cam
paign in Iowa. He indicates that the
protection which they offer against the
most disagreeable feature encountered
in trench life is little less than q god
send.
More recently Gen. John j. Pershing
has placed his endorsement on the gar
ments, for which the women of Iowa
under the leadership Of Mrs. T. c.
Eastman Of the university are re-
sponsible, and plans are already well
under way to extend the. benefits of
vermin protection to the soldiers from
other states as well as those from Iowa.
And in this important work Iowa is
called upon to take the lead.
On the Fourth Of July. Mrs. Eastman
announces, the untyersity's chemistry
department will turn over all its forces
and equipment to the chemical treat
ment of an enormous lot of the gar
ments, which will be sent to France to
serve men in the national army, which,
1t is sometimes commended has not re-
ceived the wholehearted support Of the
civil population in the same way the
soldiers in state organizations have.
Mrs. Eastman is appealing to the
woraen's organizations over the state to
make this Fourth Of July shipment
even larger than the three or four ship
ments which have already been sent to
the Iowa boys in the Rainbow division,
for the garments prepared at that time
will have to serve in an immensely
greater field. Persons interested should
correspond with the university woman
at once in order that shipments of gar
ments from over the state may reach
the university before July 4.
So complete has been the success Of
the Iowa innovation that war leaders
have assured Mrs. Eastman that the
government will be glad to pay for the
packing OF the garments and attend to
their shipment to France. Iowa is
alone SO far in the enterprise, but the
success Of her experiment may mako
it necessary for other states to learn
the chemical process and help out in
the work

BELGlANS ASK GAMES.
AII.Star Soccer Team Would Arrange
Matches in America.

New York, June 5.-A challenge for
a series Of International soccer games
between the Belgian and any Ameri-
can teams has been received from
Lieutenant Hubin, captain of the
foreign ccNbination and there is
possibility <hat the contests may be
arranged. The communication, which
was addressed to the commission on
trairHng camp activities. asks il it Is
feasi1e to schedule one or more such
matches in. the larger cities OF the
training camps, the gate receipts TO
be awarded to some war relief fund.
Lieutenant Hubin. who holds a
commission in the Belgian army. states
that the players of his team which
have been selected from the various
sections Of the army, have acquitted
themselves we'll in number OF
matches in both England and France.
Aside from the actual travelling and
living expenses Of the team the
players ask nothing in the way OF re-
ceipts and Lieutenant Hubin states
that he believes that the necessary
permission for the trip can be secured
from the Belgian government.

After short interval it reopened.
After that until about II o'clock 1t

No action was taken by the state

was confscated by the state agents.
The game was in full swing all even

| New York, June 5.-The presence OF
large numbers of American and Cam
adam soldiers abroad has caused such
an unprecedented demand thruout
England for all kinds Of baseball sup
plies that 1t is almost impossible to
satisfy the constantly increasing re-
quests from training camps and sta
lions for balls, bats, masks, shoes,
gloves and protectors.
It Is estimated by sporting author
titles that there will be a demand for
baseball equipment during the present
season to outfit 1000 teams. and all Of
It must be exported from New York.
A special report to the department
of commerce from Vice Consul Stewart
s. Hayes at London states that the
demand for athletic equipment in
England has been decreased since the
war began about 60 per cent on all
goods except footballs, boxing gloves
and baseball paraphernalia. The sup
ply Of baseball equipment has at all
times been less than the demand
which foreign dealers sought to meet
by importations, but. being unable to
gauge the market. they continued to
order in insufficient quantities until
the restriction Of imports made the
obtaining of such goods extremely
difficult
At present with the American army
and navy forces in England, the de-
mand has reached proportions that
can not be satisfied without large
supplies being shipped from the United
States. The books of a large London
sports store indicate the Increase for
baseball equipment since 1914. In 1915
the approximate value of baseball
imports was $40, 900, in 1915, $4,000 in
1917, $40. 900, and in 1918, to date, $50
500.
On the other hand. the demand for
cricket, tennis and golf equipment has
decreased as much as so per cent and
more. 1t is not believed that this in
dicates any permanent loss of favor
by these sports, but it is due to the
fact that they require special playing
fields difficult to obtain, while an
i'm promptu game of baseball may be
organized at d moments rctice. The
age limit of the British army was set
at forty one years in April, 1915, with
the prospect of being raised to fifty,
so that every able-bodied man is en-
gagged in some work of such national
Importance that he has no time for
the widely popular amateur sports OF
peace times.
