walked away with the honors in
the Fifth Annual Interscholastic
Track and Field Meet, held on
Frazer Field, Delaware College on
May II. Dupont High School cap
tured the banner for Glass 2 teams.
Many records were broken and the
track events were the fastest yet
on Frazer Field.
In Glass 2 there was a pretty
contest between Dupont High and
Georgetown High for first honors,
Dupont finally winning. 1t was
not until the last event was over
that the result was known. There
were several close races in this
class, and the crowd was kept on
edge in several of the neck-and-
neck finishes. Hoey, of Dover,
took first place in the SS0-yard
dash in fine style and broke the
old record of PIG 2-5, breasting the
tape in 2.15 3-5. In the mile re-
lay, Dupont won by several yards,
with Kenneth Square second and
Georgetown third. The race be-
tween the anchor men was excit-
ing, the final outcome being in
doubt until the last straight-away.

!. Such was the gist of an announce,

which cut off our commerce with the
European countries completely" said
Senior Pichard0, while in town, "Cuban
interests and relations in the Pacific
and the Orient have largely expanded.
The establishment of q Cuban consulate
in Yokohama is an outcome of the
expansion of Cuba interest in the
Far East and believe the Cuban Japa
nose commerce is to increase material
ly, wear after year.
"The Cuban government has decided
to promote closer relations between my
country and Japan. A special envoy

THIS WARlARGELy
FOUGHT ON TOBACCO
For First Time What Was For
mer Luxury Is Necessity

LONDON, August 49, ASSOCIATED
Prcss) This war, n London paper
points out, is the first great conflict
In history which has been fought on
tol acco.
In all prev iuut "nrH tho nations en-
gHgcl have supplied their fighters more
or less generously with food, equipment
and munitions, but rarely with Injuries.
In the present war public and private
agencies have been working from the
outset in all the bclligerent countries
to provide the soldiers with little eek.
tras," and the chief of these has been
tobacco.
To British soldiers almost uncount-
able millions Of cigarettes and hundreds
of tons of pipe tobacco have been
sent, duty free. But despite these enOr
nous shipments, the consumption of to
hacco in the British Isles has steadily
increased. The cost Of tobacco has
climbed from twelve cents to forty eight
cents pound for the w.grade dark
tobacco used for blending purposes has
jumped from twelve cents to ninety six
vents pound.
Anxiety and nervous strain inseparable
! from a great war are held responsible
| for the increase in smoking at home.
Testimony from the front is that with
out generous supplies of tobacco the
men could not Withstand the strain Of
continuous conflict.
England chief source Of supply is
I the United States, and the fear is en-
| tcrtaincd here that owing to the war 3
! possible interference with production
! there and an increased home demand,
+ the amount available for this country
may be materially lessened. Bonded
stocks here are even now dangerously
depleted owing to decreased imports.
France and Italy, with less extensive
sources Of supply, have spared no efforts
, to meet the tobacco needs Of their sol
diers, and the same is true of Germany
The London press is specializing
whether it may not yet become neces
sary to institute some system of tobacco
rntioning for those smokers not engaged
in productive war work.
