Teams from a number of Kansas cities
and one from Kansas City, Mo-, are
entered for the tournament
The tournament here tomorrow will
be the first state wide effort for a
contest in the particular branch of

sports have state tournaments at vari-
Gus points, but volleyball is the newest
spert on the state tournament calen-
dar.
According to the statement of the
tournament promoters issued today
the preliminaries will begin about. 4

continue until about o'clock in the
evening. In the preliminaries two

Teams are entered from the follow
ing cities: Topeka, 2; Atchison, 2;

formed men, it is the former residents
of the state. who are joyfully serving
ION committees and acting as hosts
and hostesses on different days. and
busting about generally, exchanging
Kansas news all the while.
There are over 500 former Kansans
living in New York City or the imme-
date vicinity, and if body had the
time to stay at headquarters all the
time for several days he would no
doubt see all of the 500, for they are
finding this welcoming real pleas
ure and not duty.
Lucy Knowles Thatcher was there,
accompanied by two small boys and a
tall flapper. very handsome in a red
beret. that she assured me was her
dughter. The Daley. boys, Clark and
Phil, are in every day and Harry
Rigby and his wife are almost daily
visitors, while John Fritts is so afraid
that something will go on while he's
away that he can scarcely attend to
his business. Mrs. Stanley and Miss
Harriet Stanley have assisted regularly
from the first day the Kansas COM
mittee took possession of the rooms,
when there was much chaos and cur
tain hemming and wondering If any of
the Kansas boys would take the
trouble to look up the headquarters,
anyhow. That was on April Is. Since
then hundreds of Kansas fighters have
registered in the big guest book, so~one
is safe in saying that they like the
idea of being met and welcomed by
Kansans in New York, and that the
headquarters has already justified its
existence.

REDS SEE CHANCE
BOIsheviki May Try Coup While
Huns Are at Versailles.
Lenine Expected To Make Most
of Italy-Jap Situation.

Washington, April 25.-The as
ISOLATED powers recognizing the pos
sibility of Bolsheviki coup while the
German delegates are at Versailles,
have prepared against such develop
ment, it was stated in diplomatic
quarters here today.
Lenine has been in secret conference
at Moscow for weeks past with fol-
lowers from all over Europe. 1t is
understood, and has framed an elabor-
ate scheme for advancing the cause of
the International proletariat as an in
cident to the signing of the peace
treaty.
An attempted general advance of
the Russian Red armies is possible,
upon the arrival of the German pleni-
potentiaries in France, diplomats
hold, The Bolshevik forces in the
Archangel regions. in the Odessa
regions and in Lithuania are known
to be equipped for an offensive.
The Bolsheviki also have been
watching eagerly for peace confer
ence split even of a minor nature and
diplomats expect Lenine, himself a
keen diplomatist, to utilize the Italian
situation and the japanese grievances
to his own advantage.
Should Lenine make direct appeal
to the italian people in their bewilderS
ment and tension, he might carry more
weight than the counsel of either the
peace conference or the half defeated
italian Diplomats

MUST GIVE RAISE
County Commissioners Have No
Say About Clerk Increases.
Shawnee Salary Hikes May
Amount to $500.

shawnee county commissioners to-
day are threshing out with county of
ficers- the justification of increasinn
salaries of clerks in county offices
$500 year. Increases aggregatine
that amount became lawful thru the
passage of bill at the last 1egisla-
ture warranting this increase to clerks
in Shawnee county alone.
A clause placed in the bill by those
interested makes tho county commits
sioners helpless in denying increases
demanded for their clerks by the
county officers. This clause provides
that the increases are lawful when
ever the county officers demand a SAL
airy hike for their clerks not to ex-
coed the amounts specified in the new
law.
Entitled to Increase.
"Of course we can refuse to sign
the warrants" said A. A. Rodgers
chairman of the board, "but. the Off
GERS could go into court and under the
new bill force us to sign. Anyway, we
wouldn't want to do that as there is a
very efficient force of clerks in the
court house at present and they, as a
rule, are entitled to an increase in
wages the same as other employees"
Proposed increases of the various
county officers are being discussed and
an effort made to establish equitable
salaries in the court house and at the
same time save little OF the So 5OC
hike justifiable under the Legislative
act for satisfying employees in future
demands for higher salaries.
Increases Allowed.
The yearly increases in salary allow
ances for clerks of the various county
officers are: County, clerk. $1,000
81, 600; probate court, $1,000; clerk OF
the district court, $1,000; register o,
deeds. $500; county attorney, $1,000
