Delaware In Scrimmage
Against Maryland State

On Thursday last, Delaware
went through a hard scrimmage
with Maryland State of College
Park, Maryland. Coach Shipley,
who is an alumnus of the Mary
land College persuaded "Cutly",
Bird to stop off on his way to
Swarthmore and practice with
the Blue Hen lads, believing that
such a practice would be benef-
cial to both teams. Frazer Field
was the scene of a stiff battle be-
tween the two elevens, and both
coaches were well-satisfed with
the results of the day. The south
ern lads stayed over until Satur-
day, when they travelled up to
Swarthmore to play the Little
Quakers."
On Friday evening, the Mary
landers were the guests of the en-
tire Delaware student body at a
smoker given in the chapel room
of Old College. Many old men
who were back commented on the
amount of "pep" shown at this
fest and remarked that it augured
we'll for Delaware's success this
esason. Bayard Carter, who con-
Quoted the meeting, was we'll
known to the Maryland boys, hav-
ing played on their eleven in 1918
when he was in the service.
Bobby" Knode, States captain,
and "Curly" Bird, their coach, gave
wonderful speeches, in which they
expressed a hope that the meeting
would be the basis and beginning
of a wonderful relationship be-
tween the two colleges.

Signs of the Times

There are many old-timers who
have unlimited faith in the traditional
signs of the seasons. One of the most
treasured is that from the time the
first strident note produced by the
cicada rubbing its wings together,
giving a good imitation Of the COM
bination "katy-did," is heard in the
land, it is at least six weeks to kill
ing frost.
This insect, usually first heard in
the closing days of July in this lati-
tude, was noted singing its song of the
approaching death of vegetation on
August IL this year. The oracles re-
marked, "We are sure to have a glor-
ious late fall, and the frost which
comes generally about September 10,
is not due till the 23d, which will save
late crops"
Some skeptics who have observed
this sign, are convinced there is some
thing in it. No blighting frost has
touched this region. Tuesday morn
ing, the katydid limit, opened with q
warm shower.

Nature Can't Be Cheated

About every boy wishes he could be
a travelling salesman and nearly all
travelling statesmen wish they could
stay at home.
Because a man occasionally has
been able to cheat his fellow man, he
thinks he can also cheat Nature, but
he'll always find Nature sitting on his
doorstep on pay day.
Now here's the truth and if it's
treason to the sex, all right, but the
average woman who does her own
housework and cares for a family
does 100 per cent more hard work
than the average man in his business
and she doesn't usually get much but
her board, lodging and clothing and
has to prepare her own board and
make up most of her own clothing.
To save money by going without
necessities is bad economy buG 70
waste anything lessons your wealth,
the wealth of your country, and the
wealth of the world.

Omega Alpha Gives
Informal Dance

The Omega Alpha Fraternity
opened its social season for the
year last Saturday night when it
gave an informal dance at the New
Century Club. 1t is hardly neces-
sary to say more of the music
than that it was furnished by
George Madden and his coterie OF
artists to show how much it was
enjoyed. About thirty-five couples
were present. During the inter-
mission, refreshments were served
in the dining hall of the club
house. The dance was full of pep
and pleasure throughout and it
was with genuine regret that the
dancers departed at midnight.
The patronesses for the dance
were: Mrs. F. M. K. Foster, Mrs.
{, 0. Houghten, and Mrs. E. l..
Wilson.

Cases Designed
For Trophies

Through the kindness of Mr.. H.
Rodney Sharp, Mr.. Wilkinson, and
Mr.. Coyle, the college trophies
will soon be fttingly displayed in
handsome cases placed in the main
entrance of Old College. The cases
will be designed especially for the
many trophies Delaware has won
in athletics, so that the various
footballs, basketballs, baseballs,
cups, medals, and banners shall
be displayed to the best advantage.
The present plan is very mark
ed improvement over the system
that has prevailed in the college.
Indeed for the past two years our
trophy room has existed as such
in name only. By using the main
hall for our trophies, they will be
displayed to real advantages in a
very suitable location and at the
same time the former trophy
room," an out of the way place for
trophies, is thrown open for needed
use as student meeting room.
With the Delaware trophies well
displayed, traditions about them
should be gathered and handed
down to all new students as vital
and most important part of the
college.
The care of the new cases will
be placed in the hands of the Stud
ent Council, under whose direction
Harter Hall and Old College are
now administered.

Student Meeting
Meets With Favor

The first of the chapel meetings
conducted by the students, held
yesterday in Wolf Hall, proved to
be a success in every way. The
meeting was in charge of F. Bay
ard Carter, president of the Stud
Council. Carter opened the meet
ing as a purely business session
of the student body by giving a
report of the financial conditions
of the Student Council. 1t IS
planned to have such a report CIV
en- to the student body every month
by the secretary of the Student
Council.
Following Carter's report, NC
Cardle explained briefly the plans
which the Social Committee of the
faculty has under way as to the
number of dances and entertain
ments which should be given this
wear 1t is felt that the number OF
dances should be restricted tol
several reasons. During the dis
cussion which followed McCardleS
report, the question was raised a:
to lust what systems are in torc
in other colleges about the enter
tainments given. This matter wa'
referred to the Student Council t
be looked into and reported upo
later.

Wolf Chemical Club
Reorpanized For Year

At the first meeting of the Wolf
Chemical Club last Tuesday night,
the Club was reorganized and
plans laid for the coming year.
Due to the unsettled conditions
last year, the Club remained mac
tive and there was much specula-
tion as to whether or not it could
ever be reorganized. However, so
large a proportion of the students
appeared at the meeting that the
club was very happily and effec-
lively awakened.
After a short business session,
Prof. Thompson pointed out the
advantages of belonging to such a
club and urged every man in col
lege who is interested in chemistry
to join. A committee consisting of
Mulrooney, Price, and Kennedy
was appointed to arrange a pro-
gram for the meetings and they
promise to have men of real promi-
nence as speakers.
The following officers were elect
ed for the coming year
President J. F. O'Neil,
Vice-President T. w. Holland,
Secretary J. F. Price,
Treasurer E. Kennedy.
New men interested in the club
and it's aims are instructed to give
their names to Mulrooney as soon
as possible.

Here Is Chance to
Help Your Uncle Sam

ownership of the following revolv-
ers:

Approaching the valuable aid
which can be rendered by the news

this matter.
These revolvers were shipped from
Philadelphia, Pa, to South Carolina
in November, 1917, since which time
some, or all, of same probably have
changed hands.
All owners of revolvers are asked
to examine same carefully and it
they own, or have knowledge of the
ownership of any of these weapons
to report by telegraph, government
rate collect, to Major Norman Mac
Leod, 140 North Broad street, Phila-

No suspicion can possibly attach
to the present owner Of any one of
these revolvers, but it is through
the tracing of these firearms that
the government hopes to obtain in
formation in matter of the gravest
importance

$3.50 in Stolen Bonds
Recovered in Chimney

Twenty thousand dollars in
stolen Liberty bonds have been re-
covered from a chimney on the roof
OF the house at 104 Eighth avenue,
New. York. The police have been
seeking them since May 27, when
Dennis Forrest, ,sixteen-year-old
messenger for brokerage firm,
confessed his story of being held
up and robbed of the bonds was a
fiction.
Detective Michael Londrigan was
let down the chimney on a rope after
he and Detectives Grover Brown,
August Mayer and John O'Connor
had discovered a brown paper pack
age in the flue.
Poung Forrest, whose home is at
304 West Fifty-fourth street, was
sent by his employers with the bonds
to deposit in the federal reserve
bank. He reported three men had
taken them away from him in front
of 9 Pine street. That night he
admitted the robbery tale was false,
but could not or would not disclose
what had become of the bonds. SThe
police later arrested Frank CoakIey,
of 1O7 West Twenty-sixth street
in a furnished room on Fourteenth
street They received information
the loot was concealed in a CHM
ney on Eighth avenue, some where
between Fifteenth and Sixteenth
streets, and had been inspecting
chimneys in that vicinity till their
search was rewarded

BoIsheviki to Seek
Recognition Through
International Council

PARIS, June 21.-Europe is now
facing a supreme effort by the Boil
sheviki to establish an international
soviet council, representing Russia,
Hungary and Austria, with sufficient
power to force official recognition
from the peace conference, accord
ing to advices here.
Dispatches from Russia declare
the Ukrainian SoViets have started
movement for a Russian federation.
Their representative, M. Rakowski,
is said to be in Moscow negotiating
with Russian, Lithuanian, and
White Russian soviet officials in an
effort to. centralize the Russian SOW
lets.
The Russian soviets, at the same
time, are cooperating with the Hun
garian communist government in
preparing for vast propaganda and
financial campaign to establish a
soviet government in Austria. While
the present Austrian government
succeeded in suppressing the. recent
Bolshevist uprising in Vienna, later
dispatches indicated it is uncertain
whether the government can main
tain its ascendency.
The Hungarians also are striving
to bring about formation of a SOW
and recently claimed great success.
The recent international soviet
congress in Budapest was attended
by representatives. of Austria, Rus
STA, Italy, Munich, Czecho- Slovakia,
Fiume and Sweden
