RUTGERS DROPS GREEK RULE
Study of Dead Language No Longer
Required for Bachelor Of
Arts Degree.

New York.--One of the last strong
holds of the classical tradition in edu-
cation fell when the trustees Of Rut-
gers college at New Brunswick, N. T..
decided to abolish the requirement Of
Greek for the bachelor of arts degree.
A strong fight was made by the
scientific school faction to have both
Latin and Greek required of candf-
dates for the A. B. This failed. but
hereafter only one year of Latin will
be required.
rutgers is one of the strongest pro-
ponents of the classics. 1t was the
eighth college founded in this country
and was formerly connected with the
Reformed Dutch church. For the last
half century it has been the state col
lege of New Jersey.
The trustees gave permission for a
100000 memorial building to the
Rutgers men who were killed in the
war.

ANTWERP LIvENS UP
Port Passing Through PERIOD of
Resurrection.
Ships Begin to Come Struggling Into
Harbor Made DesoIate
by War.

Antwerp.-Antwerp appears to be
passing through a process of resurrec-
ton, although the tonnage handled
I since the port was reopened more than
three months ago represents what
would ordinarily come through this
port in one week during the days prior
| to the war.
Ships now come struggling in, and
along the seven-mile water front the
winch is heard creaking here and
there, and the vision in some of the
great sheds Is INSTRUCTED by unpreten-
tious stacks of bags Of American rice
and rows Of barrels Of Chicago pork,
and there are foodstuffs, clothing and
manufactured articles, most of which,
however, is for immediate use.
The American commission of relief
in Belgium had II steamships in port
early in April and the American base
for supplying the American army of
occupation in Germany was unloading
five others.
Shipping men are anxiOusly awaiting
the opening of the American base at
Contich, about two miles outside of
Antwerp on the Malines road. Bar
racks are being erected at Contich for
the accommodation of 10000 soldiers
at time This is expected to in
iect a little more life into Antwerp
port.
The ground picked out for the Amer
lean base is a vast plain, dry and well
and the doughboys will find
living and sanitary conditions there
much better than in other bases which
have achieved greater prestige.
The Americans have taken over
some of the piers where North Ger
man Lloyd steamships formerly dock
ed. The early work was arduous, as
the piers were incumbered with gravel |
imported from Holland by the Ger |
mans, ostensibly to repair roads, but |
actually to build REINFORCED concrete |
dugouts and trenches. One
hundred cubic yards Of the gravel had
20 be removed before the piers could
De used. 1t is estimated the Germans
lad enough gravel there to repair Bel
,ian roads for so years.
Fifteen thousand longshoremen and
tevedores are idle here and the only So
ution shipping men find when ques-
toned as to how the situation can be
emedied may be summed up in one

Profit in City Ostriches.

Ell Paso, Tex.-Fickle fashion has
been playing fast and loose with the
ostrich industry. A stock company
started an ostrich farm in the valley
with more than SO of the long-fegged
birds. Then the creator of fashions
ruled out ostrich plumes. Many birds
were sold and the few remaining ones
given to the city for exhibition pur,
poses at Washington park. Now
plumes are in style once more. Park
Commissioner Fisher is planning to
buy meat for the wild animals in the
park zoo with the proceeds from the
sale of plumes.

WHITE HOUSE SOCIAL

Whole Program of Dinners and Re.

Cancelled.

II was announced today by Ms.
Wilson's personal secretary that tie
usual White House diplomatic, judi
cial, Congressional and service din
ners and receptions certainly would
be deferred, and the probability is
that the slow recovery of the Presi-
dent will cause cancellation of the
entire program.
Not once since she became mistriss
of the White House in 1918 has Mrs.
Wilson presided over the entire
group OF brilliant affairs constituting
the full list and running from mid
December to Lent.
No Invitations have been sent out
for the current season, though lists
have been carefully made up. Ordi-
narily the round OF events opens
about two weeks prior to Christmas
with the dinner in honor OF the
Presidents Cabinet and there follow
at weekly intervals the diplomatic
reception, diplomatic dinner, judicial
reception. Supreme Court dinner. Con-

DIRECTOR HINES ACTS

Hines agents in Kansas City today

The Rail Director will serve an ul-

work, it is believed. This is the
policy Hines has adopted in the past
toward unauthorized strikes. Men
