Send Games, but Not
Dice, Red Cross Plea

New Orleans, July 20.-A Red
Cross ban has been placed on dice
SO far as their distribution in the
four army cantonments in the gulf
division of the Red Cross is con-
cerned.
A call for games, issued through
out the division recently, brought to
Red Cross headquarters here not
only cards, dominoes, checker and
chess boards but a complete assort-
ment of dice.
Now there has gone forth from
Red Cross headquarters a request to
the public not to contribute dice as
the Red Cross does not favor the
playing of games to which they US
ually are devoted.
