Should Be Keen
Among College Swimmers

Many of the Eastern universities
have decided to organize swimming
teams and there is promise of an un-
, usually interesting collegiate season,
for number of able contestants are
preparing to take part in the activities.
Five of the stars who figured among
the winners at the intercolleg late
championships of 1918 arc again avail
able: Johnson, Of Princeton, the so
yard holder; his team mate, Dane, who
took fancy diving laurels; Elderkin, of
Pennsylvania, victor in the title plunge
for distance. and Thdrston and Binney,
of Yale, who helped to capture the
champ ionship relay race for freshmen
at the meet.
Thurston, by the way has thrashed
100 yards officially in 57}5 seconds in
the New Haven pool, and great things
are expected of him. In addition to
the foregoing topnotchers. there are on
hand quite q few new candidates of ex-
ceptional ability, and it is also among
the possibilities that Herbert Volmer,
formerly of Columbia. now at the Pei
ham Bay Naval Training Station, may
be seen once more wearing the White
and Blue.
He intends to return to the Morning
side institution for the second semes-
ter, if he is mustered out of the service
in time. and considerable interest at
taches to the fact, for he still ranks
among the worlds swimming record
lists. All in all, prospects for the col
lege season are remarkably bright
Philadelphia started a series of inter
club water carnivals for mermaids last
week, and the first engagement re-
suited in an overwhelming victory for
the girls of the Gymnastic Society.
They earned total of 70 points, as
against "a points scored by the team
of the Kensington Y. w. c. A., next to
place. A feature of the meet was the
unexpectedly good showing made by
Miss Irene Guest, of the West Branch
Y. w. G. A., newcomer. She won a
furlong swim in 3 minutes 18 seconds.
which is fast time for a youngster
serving her novtiate in competition.

Ellis for Commodore

The nominating committee of the
Seawanhaka- Corinthian Yacht Club, OF
Oyster Bay, had just its regular slate
for the annual election of the club
Ralph Ellis has been nominated for
commodore, Junius S. Morgan, jr., has
been named for vice commodore and
Paul L. Hammond will fly the rear
commodore's flag. During the war the
club. like all other yachting organiza-
tions, has taken little interest in
racing. However, the slate includes
race committee, made up of well known
yachtsmen, which is taken to mean
that the organization will resume its
regattas next summer.

Millrose A. A. After
Athletes for Meet

The Millrose Athletic Association has
already begun to collect the entries of
star athletes for its indoor track and
field carnival, which will be held in
Madison Square Garden on the even
ing of March IL. Those already as.
sured Of competing are Tom Campbell,
national champion, and Joe Stout both
of the University of Chicago.
Campbell's performances for the past
SIX months stamp him as an especially
last man ut the half-mile distance. He
has three victories to his credit over
Jole Ray, and it is likely that they
again VIII meet in the Millrose games
in one of the special confess. If Raw
should be sche duled to start in a one
mile race, Stout will be the opponent
selected to test his speed.

to the credit of Max Mott, of Chicago.
at l minute Is 2-5 seconds, there is
not doubt Calvert would have beaten
it but for the slip.
Unusually good competition is prom
lsed in two of the swimming races
scheduled for Wednesday at the New
York A. c., a 1OO-yard scratch sprint
and 200-yard handicap. Never before
have so many speedy contestants been
on hand in this city.

ence shown by the public for collegiate
water polo, which is a slight modfca-
ton of the old American game over the
soccer variety, officially adopted by
the A. A. U. in recent years. This pref
erence has been noticeable wherever
the two styles have been exhibited,
and is not confined to spectators, but
shared by players. 1t would seem ad
visable,. under the circumstances, for
the A. A. U. to sanction championships
at both games, instead of at soccer
only.

Boxing Increases Popularity
Efforts are being put forth to have boxing legal
lzed IN those states which do not permit boxing.
There is no doubt that this is the accepted time for
the efforts. Boxing enjoyed as much wide
spread popularity as it does now The war did it.
Boxing was taken up all over the country as means
OF conditioning soldiers and to build up the needed
lighting spirit. 1t is difficult to measure how great
part boxing played in the wonderful fighting of the
American troops on the battefelds of Europe but it
sfces to that boxing is considered most essential
by those who had in charge the making of our gbtinp
men, Boxing helped to make the soldiers and the
soldiers have helped to make boxing
The sport is longer considered base thing

ABOUT THE COUNTY
ElkTON
From the Record:

From the Record
we do not believe we can call alton.
'ioh OF Elkton people too forcibly or
100 often 10 the fact that when thev
respond to tempting ads in mail order
publications, offering something for
nothing, they will, nine times ont of
ten get "stung." The concern that
offers you everything from complete
set OF household goods to a package
OF darning needles for mere pittance
down and the balance on the easy
payment plan has to figure ahead that
whole lot of folks are going to
make few payments and then beat
the bill. They also have to figure
on getting it back from another
source, so the price of the merchan-
disc is made high enough to cover
bad debts-and you suffer The next
time you see one of these tempting
offers try an experiment. Try taking
the same ad to your home merchant
and ask him if he can duplicate the
goods. He will not only give you d
lower price than the mail-order con-
cern, but he will save you the freight
on the article. And if you are the
right sort he will make the terms
just as liberal as the out-of-town deal
ers. Besides, if something turns up
and you can't meet payment he is
right here where you can explain it
to him. If the goods turn out to be
worthless you can get your money
back But you can't where the man
you bought from is several hundred
miles away. Take all these things
into considerations will help you to
avoid getting "stung."

CARDINAL GIBBONS SAYS
PEACE MUST BE SIGNED FIRST

Baltimore-Cardinal Gibbons. who
is in New Orleans visiting his broth
er, John T. Gibbons, in an interview
obtained by the Baltimore Ameri-
cans correspondent in that city
said:
"The peace treaty is today the big
gest and most important task con-
fronting the world. Once the peace
treaty has been signed. then the
League of Nations or any other prop
os ton can be taken up. am OF
the belief that the peace treaty
should come first, and that the Lea
que of Nations should not interfere
with it or in any way delay its being
signed.
"At present I am not going to
make statement on the League OF
Nations except to say that speed
should be used by the All es in get
ting the covenant of peace signed.
Every days delay is serious, as it
strengthens the position Of the
enemy, since it gives him chance
to ask for delay on his part A delay
also makes for confusion and a pro-
longation of the negotiations. and
may result in a rejection of some of
the terms by the enemy.
"The reason / say that the sign
ing of peace is more important than
the League of Nations is because of
the great unrest now going on in
Europe. Bolshevism is spreading
there rapidly. If peace is signed this
can be stamped out"
