RELAY CHAMPS
STILL UNDECIDED
BY CHARLES A. GRIMES

bill" Hayes won by inches over
Barry of Corby in a brilliant relay
in the Notre Dame gym yesterday,
but the Sorin Hallers are not yet in
terhalI champions. Corby protested
the race because Mohn failed to
touch Able Lockard as he started
his round. The protest was allowed.
But Corby was not allowed the
race because of disqualification
Sorin came back with and proved
the charge that Barry, Corby's an
Choir man, cut a corner and thus
Corby, too, was disqualified.
Solomon" Rockne ponderingly
scratched away on the memories of
his hirstute upper-covering for few
moments and then decided that the
race would be run over again in the
gym this afternoon. Wynn, Burke,
Scallin, Meredith. Hoar and Barry
competed for Corby yesterday after
noon against Lockard, Mohn, Moore,
Bahan, Smith ard Hayes Of Sorin.
The race was run in 1884 rs, two
seconds slower than the interhall
record.
Inasmuch as the half mile was
run in close to record time. it will
not surprise if the old mark goes by
the board when Sorin and Corby
settle the championship this after
noon.
Eddie" Msehan's return to Notre
Dame has sent track prospects soar
ing higher than ever. He visited the
university a few weeks ago, after
being discharged, but returned to his
home before finally deciding TO start
back to the books again this year.
He returned this morning.
During the first year on the varsity
Meehan ran on Notre Danes relay
team, the team that shattered the
intercollegiate mark at the Drake
relays two years ago. His side-kicks
that year were McDonough, Kasper
and Noonan. McDonough has re-
and will be eligible for the outdoor
season. Coach Rockne hopes to
build another crack team around
Meehan and McDonough. Kasper is
still in France. but plans to return
to Notre Dame as soon as discharg-
ed. NoOnan is in the naval aviation
service and will hardly return.

The Clauer five still maintains the

was used as the place Of the strug-
giles. which made the floor work and
basket shooting more accurate, al
though all the teams were more or
less handicapped By not being used
TO such a small space TO travel
around in.
The Clauer- Elbel mangle was the
best commercial game staged on the
floor this season, every minute Of
the game having scrap and good
team work. Waters made the first
counter By registering a spiffy long
one. At this stage OF the tilt the
Efbel crew forged ahead. Engdahl
and McEniarfer each made a bas-
lSet, while their fellow center rang
up three ovals 10 his credit. White
man, OF the Clauer crew, was the
only man TO place in rest OF the
half. The score looked bad for the
Clauer crew, the score ending 7 to
10 in the musicians favor.

McEndarfer, Of Elbeis, sent the ball

But this lucky streak didn't keep IN

the dust. so he started playing a
fierce game. Nicar soon caught the
drift and took after his captain. The
Elbel guards, consisting of Guthrie
and Shanafelt. soon caught the
habit and a death struggle followed,
in which Referee Darling couldn't
keep track OF all the fouls that were
made, this making the scrimmage
all the rougher. The effect of the

in the standings, when the seniors
made good their lead in the league

league. the yearlings after a long
drawn out scrap defeated the sophs

on winning another game before

the league. This scrappy playing
soon resulted in a foul on the sophs.

WHY
Sun Does Not Always Rise
at Same Point

The sun does not climb straight up
in the sky, but obliquely. What is
more, his rising point Is not the same
on two succeeding days. As spring
merges into summer the rising point
shifts to the north. After June q,
he shifts south, so that on each day
he begins his climbing little more
to the south. BY December % he has
reached his southern limit and turns
back again.
Since there Is a defined region on
the eastern horizon along which the
suns rising point shifts in regular or
der and beyond which 1t never strays,
the daily paths Of the sun through the
sky in the year form an unshifting, un-
changing band Of even width-the
same band from year to year.
As you 60 north the SUMS path
slopes more and more. The band re-
mains the same; 1t merely swerves up
or down In the sky. Hence In the arctic
regions the sun during spring and sum.

Why Burberry Should Be Killed.

Death to the barberry plant, which
for many years has held favor in city
and country as decorative shrub, Is
sounded by an editorial in the Ameri-
can Lumberman, which says:
'The specific and unforgivable crime
of the barberry is that it Is the agency
through which is perpetuated the black
stem rust in wheat, fungous disease
that attacks the wheat kernels. The
damage to the wheat crop Of the Unit
ed States in 1915 due to rust is esti-
mated at 20O,OOO,OOO bushels. There is
imminent danger Of another outbreak
Of rust this year that would wipe out
more wheat than the entire country
could save in year Of the most strin-
gent H0overizing.

larnity is to dig up and burn every bar
berry bush, except the so-called jap
anese variety. which alone has been ce-

How Cigarettes Fooled Ausbfassa.


Lieut.. Roberto de Violini Of the Sixth
Alpine corps, one Of Italy's fkmous
fighting forces, has recently come to
the United States on 4 special mission
for his government.
The lieutenant is ferceful and efo-
Quent speaker and thoroughly familiar
with the fighting front. He speaks per-
feet English and tells many amusing
as well as thrilling incidents Of the
war in the Alps.
A strategy that was resOrted to in
the capture of an Austrian post was
thus described by Lieutenant Violini,
according to the Italian-American
News bureau:
'The men lit cigarettes and stuck
them on the barbed wire in front Of
the Austrian trenches. Then they
dropped down and made their way to
the flank of the Austrian division.
They found almost no one there, and
practically everybody was In the front
firing at the cigarettes. We took 300
prisoners and machine guns and other
war material whose use we did not
even know, so inferior were we In the

RED MEN AND RED CROSS
Why Indians Broke Their Tradltlons
in Giving Weird Ceremonial Dance
in City Of Southwest.

That wer and rumors Of war should
reach even our most retired Indian
tribes is natural enough, but the fact
that the mission and the meaning Of
the American Red Cross have pene-
trated to. them is unexpected. Not
only the letter of the word, but also
the spirit Of it has been grasped and
accepted. Wentworth G. Field. in
''The Red Mans Red Cross" in the
Red Cross Magazine, says:
"There appeared in Santa Fee some
Of the few surviving Cochiti chiefs,
bringing with them their war bonnets,
dancing moccasins, their paints, their
ceremonial blankets and, strangest Of
all, their katcinas, the grotesque,
highly painted doll images that play
most important mystic part In cere-
monial dances. They said: we have
come to dance for you here In your
palace of the governors. We do not
want money for it. We want you to
make much money and give 1t to the
Red Crossy
"Next night, with the moonlight
flooding the courtyard, they gave their
weird, beautiful Cochitf ceremonial
dance. Out of love for the Red Cross
they had broken their traditions and
travelled weary miles to add their mite
to the cause"

has merely kept still and smiled when
people have b0asted of his patriotism.
