Pershing to Bring Bride
With Him When He Returns
From France, Capital Hears
Miss Anita Patton of Los An
geleS, It Is Rumored, Is
American Commanders S
Bride to- BE,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. The
national capital is interested again
over the rumor that General Per-
shins is soon to be married. The
story Is printed here today that the
general is expected home on the
Levia,han, and with him. perhaps,
according to word being whispered
around, his bride. The report OF his
being engaged, which was circulated
and denied shortly after he went to
France, has bobbed up again and is
being circulated with renewed en-
ergy.
1t Is the same lady--,he lady from
California, Miss Anita Patton,
daughter of George Patton of Los
Angeles Her brother, Maj. Joseph
Patton. was with the A. +. f.
through the war, a member of gen
eral staff at headquarters He re-
turned 10 Los Angeles some weeks
ago. Meanwhile, those who say they
know seem perfectly sure that either
an engagement or wedding will be
announced Immediately after the
generals return.
There seems to be a division OF
opinion as TO which, but an entire
agreement that the denials that any
engagement existed were merely be-
cause at the time no one knew how
long the war might last, and while
It lasted the marriage was ont OF the
question.
When the engagement OF Miss Pat
ton to General Pershing was first
reported, Miss Patton emphatically
denied there is any truth in the re-
port. The Patton and Pershing fam
lies have been friends for many

EXEMPT COLLEGE SPORTS.
Treasury Department Says No War
 Tax Will Bc Charged.

Washington, July 30.--Amcrica' s football fans will feel one less touch of the high cost of sports because of l recent ruling of the Treaasury de- partmcnt. The ruling is that where money from a football game or other form of collegiate sport is used ex- ClusiVcly in educational work, tho 10 per cent. war tax is exempted. Edu- cational work is interpreted to mean the maintenance of an athletic cstab- lishment and department of physical education and included in educa tion musical programs given with a desire to educate and maintenance of zoo logical parks for educational pur- poses.
 The interpretation was broad enough to include all high schools and colleges where control of the moneys received for athletic purposes is vest cd in faculty mem bers. Schools where individuals or organizations of students or alumni have charge of the funds or receive a profit thcrcfrom must continue to exact the tax from their patrons.
