GOVERNMENT
CANCELS MANY
GRID GAMES

The War Department ruling to the eff
feet that football trips involving a
nights absence may not be played be-
fore November 1 cancels many games
scheduled by colleges throughout the
country. Owing to the inauguration Of
the student army training corps October
1. the military authorities refuse to per
NIT athletes to lose any time from drill
and the only games sanctioned during
October are those that will permit the
return of the team Saturday night. This
ruling prevents the Chicago Wisconsin
game at Madison October 20, and prob
ably will result in a wholesale revision
of Big Ten schedules.

HUN SHE'LL BURSTS At
SECOND BASE IN GAME;
NO YANKS ARE PUT OUT

PARIS. Sept 6.-CBy Mall THE dia-
mond was no diamond at all. 1t was
only a Lorraine pasture with the bumps
cut off and the holes filled in to give
smooth surface. Two mines in khaki
were battling for the championship Of
the Nosges, or something like that.
From the woods behind the first base
big guns were speaking at intervals.
The shells went whistling over the field
to carry their messages of death to the
enemy. From the other side of the dis
tant hills came the booming of artillery

Sounds like a poor day for a game,
doesn't it, But on that morning the
Y. NJ c. A. athletic director of the dis
trict had ridden eight kilometres on his
bicycle to bring bats. balls. a catcher's
glove. mask and few fielders' mitts.
and the young men in khaki were going
to break them in whether or not the
whole German army was just around
the corner
Came the sixth inning. The woodle-
dy-does had gone out in one, two. three
order, and the Mickety-Hacks were
walking in from the field. The umpire,
standing behind the plate as all fearless
umpires should (because it's nearer the
dugout if the crowd gets boisterous),
was calling for little pepper.
Shake a leg. you birds" he was
saying, "or the war'n be finished before
this game is"
Nobody Put Out
The next instant he was fiat on his
stomach So was everybody else round
about, for right behind second base there
pumped a shell which bore the label
Of made in Germany" The explo-
sion tore a hole in the ground and other
wise messed up the field.
Anybody hurt?" yelled the umpire.
as he got up cautiously after a minute
or two. Nope? All right. then, shake
leg"
Quickly. after they had salvaged
every piece of shell in sight as souve-
Mrs, the players filled the hole. the UNI
pire busted off the plate, put on his
mask and cried:
Play BALL"
Not until he acquires perfect control
can the German artilleryman stop base
ball at the front. His wild ones only
interrupt the game

Barristers' WIGS,

Barristers' wigs first came into
vogue about 200 years ago. Up to the
end of the seventeenth century judges
and sergeants at law alone had any
distictive dress.
Z Under Queen Anne the queens coun-
selor adopted the court dress and silk
gown which made up the mourning Of
the period, together with the full-bot-
toned wig then usually worn by all
persons of position.
Thereupon the outer bar started
wearing modest short wig, with
strings of horsehair tied up at the end,
in imitation of the fashion of tying the
back hair up into a pigtail.
Some judges, we are told by legal
historian, found these wigs ''cox-
combicai," and would not allow barris-
tiers wearing them to plead in court.
