SEASON AT ~"
WILL BE GAY

The social season at the university
which will be renewed after Easter,
promises to be IN exceedingly gay
one. Relieved of the restraint of last
year the festivities will show a
marked contrast to the more conser-
vative parties which were given dur
ing the war. Evidencing a little more
elaborate decoration and dress, the
parties are being regulated by the
Pan Hellenic organization but a
strict limitation is set for the amount
Of money to be expended for each af-
fair.
The calendar was made up by the
committee or social affairs and Prof.
r. r. Hitchcock. who is chairman,
has announced the intentions of this
committee to avoid returning to the
lavish and costly parties of before-the-
war.
The Phi Delta Theta formal will
mark the opening Of the season and
this will take place Saturday, April
26, III the university gymnasium. On
May 3. the Synergoi will have their
formal.
A slight change will be made in the
former schedule. Because of the
small number of Alpha Kappa Zeta
men Oh the campus at the time, their
fraternity party was not decided upon.
However a large number Of these men
have returned from service and Prof.
Hitchcock the date Of the
Alpha Kappa Zeta formal to be May

not @ announced.

BANKER ADVISES
CONSERVE COINS
TO HELP MINING

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 18.-In an ad-
dress made here yesterday before
the American Mining congress,
George Roberts, president Of
the National City bank of New York,
advocated the prohibition of the
practice of melting gold coins for
use in the arts. Such a move, he
said, would benefit the gold indus
try and help materially to preserve
the gold standard.
America, the banker pointed our,
is now almost the only country in
which producers of gold are unable
to obtain a premium above the price
maintained by the minis.
Some protective measure is i'm
perative, in Roberts opinion, since
the gold mining industry in America
has been seriously affected by ad-
vancing costs.

POLICE UNIFORMS
GOING IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO, Nov. 18.-In an effort
to keep pace with crime, which is
increasing in this city at an alarm
ing rate, the police commissioners
have decided to require all night
patrolmen to cover their beats dress
ed in plain clothes. The elimina-
ton of the uniform, it is believed,
will enable the officers to apprehend
law violators.
This step on the part of the COM
missioners is looked upon as a 81
preme effort of the department to
suppress the criminal element of this
city.
There will be over three thousand
"plain clothes" men on the streets
at night hereafter.

EUROPEANS ARE
AVERSE TO NEW
TALK Of PEACE

PARIS, Nov. 1S.-The belief is
general in French diplomatic circles
that the peace treaty will become
effective regardless of the attitude
of the United States senate toward
certain provisions of the pact as
drafted by the peace conference.
1t is believed that France cannot
again meet with the German pleni-
potentiaries, and it is understood
that Italy and England entertain
similar views. The disposition of
the Allies is to carry out the pro-
visions of the treaty and the League
of Nations covenant without the CO.
operation of America as an active
participant.

HANty WAS HIT
BY MEMBER Of
EXCITED POSSE

CENTRALIA, Nov 1s.-Reports
received from Hannaford Valley last
might, where the posse of woodsmen
and ex-soldiers was reported to have
engaged in a pitched battle with
'wobblies" last week, indicate that
John Haney, member of the posse,
who was said to have been killed
by a radical bullet, was in reality
hit by posse bullet, fired in the
darkness. The bullet entered Ha-
ney's left breast and came out under
his arm.
The cabin near which Haney fell.
and in which the radicals were sup
posed to have barricaded themselves,
is deserted now and there are no
signs to indicate that it has been
occupied recently. In fact, there is
no evidence of the presence of wob
blies in that locality.

SENATE To ACT
ON COMPROMISE
MEASURES SOON

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 18.-
Leaders of the senate express the
belief that the fight on the treaty
will come to an end early this week,
probably by the adoption of com
promise reservations which are now
being prepared for submission in
the event of failure to ratify the
treaty with the ten Lodge reserva-
tons attached.
Plans are being made for final
vote on Thursday, under the COM
promise program which they expect
to result in the adoption of mild
reservations acceptable to both sides.

PROPAGANDA Of
REDS FLOODING
MEXICAN TOWNS

Ell PASO, Tex, Nov. 1S.-Great
quantities of radical literature are
being distributed by the Reds
throughout the Mexican states near
the American boundary, according
to information received by the Am
erican authorities. The distribu-
ton is being done in a very thor
ough manner, so as TO reach the
smallest communities, and some of
the literature also is being sent to
the interior country.
The reports state that the Reds
are receiving enthusiastic assistance
from Russian sympathiZers, of whom
there are many throughout the Dor
der country, some of them recently
arriving from Russia for the pur-
pose of spreading the doctrine OF
Bolshevism.
The vigilance of the border Off
eials is being redoubled with view
to keeping the propagandists on the
Mexican side of the boundary, but
considerable of the literature is find
ing its way across the line.

KOLCHAK LOSES
MANY OFFICERS
AS OMSK FALLS

LONDON, Nov. 1S.-The capture
of the city of Omsk by the Bolshe-
wiki forces in Siberia was serious
blow to kolchak and the All-Russian
government, according to advices re-
ceived in this city late yesterday
afternoon
The reports state that Admiral
Kolchak made an herioc stand to
save the city, and in doing so lost
heavily in officers and men. The
Bolsheviki claim the capture of ten
generals and more than 100 other
officers, besides which there were
many casualties.
The Kolchak army is now retiring
hastily toward the east, closely fol-
lowed by the victorious Bolsheviki.
The seat of government was re-
moved several days ago to Irkutsk.
when It was seen that the Bolsheviki
intended TO attack Omsk.

KANSAS TAKING
STEPS TO MAKE
MINES PRODUCE

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. lS.-It is
generally believed here today that
the state of Kansas is paving the
way to engaging in coal mining for
the purpose of relieving the fue!
situation, which is assuming a very
serious aspect, owing 10 the failure
of majority of the striking coal
miners to return to their places.
Upon the application of R. j Hop
kins, state attorney-general, the su-
preme court of Kansas yesterday
appointed receivers for the larger
coal mines of Crawford and Chero-
kee counties. which is believed to be
preliminary to an assumption OF
control by the state, pending the
restoration of normal conditions.
1t is reported that it is the in
tention of the state authorities to
attempt to operate under the pro
lection of state and federal SOL
diers.

that the other nations must carry
