Prep Glasses Show Changes.

Many changes were necessary this
year in the preparatory school classes
A circular letter 20 the various Cath
Ole schools indicated that these
schools preferred not TO have a spe-
cial championship. This event was
put on three years ago at their re-
quest, and the present desire of the
Catholic schools to get back into their
respective class events may be due
10 the easy victories scored by the
st. Bencdict's Preparatory School of
Newark in this event
The classification will show the
Catholic schools placed az before.
This meant some shifting of classes.
and II was done accordingly. The ST.
Beaedict's Prep School was placed in
the championship class. It has been
third in this event the past two years.
and it Is ute possible that, had their
men not run previously in the Cath
Ollie school championship. they would
have won out.

Another query is, why do Aineri-

who argue certain unpires excel IN

Bellum Glory.

PHILADELPHIA, February IL
Pennsylvania relay carnival. now in
its twenty-hfth year, will be the first
big set of outdoor sports after the
war. Manager orion has already been
given oral or written assurance from
many of the best colleges of the east
and middle west that they will have
their best men on for the meet.
The Pacific slope may be represent
ed again. as the University of South
ern California is due to come east
this year, while the University of
Washington is considering sending on
a quartet for one of the American
championship relay events II is ex-
pected that Yale. Harvard and Prince
ton, will make their initial track and
ward and Princeton already have their
men in training and they have some
very good ones in their ranks. Yale
has. as usual, q big squad out and
Coach Mack will no doubt find some
stars among them.
Cornell Looks Good.
Jack Moakley. at Cornell, is credit
ed with having the only real track
and Geld system of the eastern col
leges. and he will no doubt come
through as usual with some good
teams. though at present his material
Is unknown. The coming indoor meets
will give some insight into the mate
rial at all of these colleges Pennsyl-
vania and Princeton at present seem
to have the strongest teams, but the
other big eastern colleges will doubt
less develop fast teams by the date
OF the caruiya1--the last Friday and
Saturday in April.
The Invitations to the colleges ware
sent out recently and accsptances
have been already received from quite
q few. Of these Georgetown is the
most prominent It's men will run in
the relay championship for the South

Johns Hopkins came through and won
this event after a hard race. George

Its fastest man, Gates. who was order
ed to training camp that week, and
had to leave after winning the cusr-
ter-nile hurdle on Friday.
A substitute was brought on from
washington that night and the race
was lost Georgetown is out to win
this season, and. as Graduate-Aana-
ger Cox writes that both Gates and

hope to make amends for last years

in the county who is able to work

Rhine in Germany
Karlich, Germany.

Dear Homefolks:
We arrived here Sunday and are
in sight of the Rhine River at last.
We are almost 18 kilometers from
Coblenz. AS far as we can see the
whole country along the Rhine is
houses and factories with what
looks like large mansions on the
higher ground. We were almost a
month on the road. Of course we
stopped at different places for few
days.
We sure saw some rough looking
country and cloudy weather. We
were afraid of getting showed in
the last place we stopped. | saw
too many sIeighs to suit me and lots
of timbered hills.
The people are very nice as far as
outward appearances go. OF course
we don't expect them to receive us
like the French did-it's a different
proposition altogether. We 60
about our business and they theirs.
We have a good place to live at
present. About fifty of US are oc-
cupying what probably used to be a
banquet hall, or something Of that
sort. We have cots with straw ticks
and coke to burn Some of the boys
are sleeping on feather beds in
private families.
There is very little to be bought
at the stores here. Their stocks are
small.
All the heavy trucks here have
steel tires. From the looks o1
things their rubber supply was ex
hausted. They sure stare at US will

we are not allowed to wear any

Milk of Arizona Must Get Along
 Minus Alcohol

Frank Bundy, whose card shows him to be a representative of May onier & Co.,, milk engineers (what- ever that may bel, of Chicago, was caller on Attorney General Jones yesterday, but his visit was not prolonged What he had to say he said right off the bat, and what the attorney general had to say was also spoken off another bat.
 What Mir. Bundy wanted was this: The privilege of introducing into the state alcohol in large quan- titles, to be used in the purification of milk. The attorney general went into the air. Arizona milk, he said, needed no Purification.
 The saints, the attorney general said, in the time of the Savior, had used milk without alcohol, and all saints had so used it since. Much milk had been spoiled by mixing alcohol with it in the shape of egg nog and milk shakes, but in the old days, when those combinations were permitted, it was not claimed by anybody that the milk so used | had been thereby purified. Anyway, alcohol could not be in troduced into Arizona for the puri- fication of milk or for any other purpose. Let the milk engineers of Chicago and elsewhere understand | that.
 Mir. Bundy departed before the at torney general had concluded his remarks on milk purification.
