ion Billiards.

The three-cushion billiard contest

able three-cushion games, especially
in the Elks league, where some Of
the best cue artists in town play
daily.
Hull Started Something.
After the close OF the Elks league
George Hull, Of the Hull & Calnon
room, took a team 10 Kalamazoo
Monday of this week the Kalamazoo
team played a return engagement
here. at which a large number Of
fans were turned away on account
of ina dequate facilities TO stage such
a match.
Now, the Elks- Oliver contest is
occupying the lifnelight, and has set
the billiard fans buZzing on the
outcome. After the dates had been
agreed upon the men drew slips TO
find out the players who would be
pittej against each other. The first
game will start next Tuesday at .
o'clock in the evening, George Gipp
and Doc" Beistle shooting against
one another. Gipp declared last

lick tied for a third This was also
a good example that the locals were
not up TO their regular standard,
Radibaugh and Wunderlick being
tied for first place in the interclass
meet, going feet inches. while
they lacked a half inch OF going the
foot mark today.
Olsen was nosed out of the low
hurdles by fraction of a minute by
Anderson. Olsen would likely have
beaten Anderson had they ran
against each other, but the winner
was awarded by comparing the
time. The half mile Armstrong
again placed his first, with Sorsens
second, and Hollowell third. Wun-
derrick looked for a period as if he
would take the match. but his wind
gave out with about a hundred
placing a fourth. The pole vault was
the biggest farce of the meet, it be-
ing almost impossible TO vault
against the wind: besides the locals
didn't have any regular man to go
in the aero feature. Ralston not be-
ing eligible. In the relay. South
Bends pride, Sluss, took the start
for the local lads, getting the lead
and making a greater distance be-
tween his opponent; next Radibaugh
ran his 220. keeping a trife ahead
Of his man, although at the last the
Elkhart man nearly passed him !;
Thomson then took the path and es-
tablished a large enough gain so
that in the final Anderson, with all
his efforts. couldn't pass Olsen.

new PLEBISCITE TAKEN
At FIUME, ROME HEARS
BIZ The Associated Prsss.

ROME, Dec. 24-In consequence
of doubts regarding the first plebiscite
at Fiume, another was taken on Sun
day, which resulted in se~venty-fve
per cent of the votes being cast in ia
vor of the italian governments pro-
posals, relative to the future occupa-
ton of the city. According to the
chief of Captain d'Annunzio's cabinet,
is reported to have resigned.
Newspapers state the basis of
agreement was as follows:
The Italian government will keep in
its possession the whole of the armis-
tice line, reaffirming the right of FL
ume to decide its own fate.
Note is taken of the wishes of FL
ume as expressed October 80, 1918,
and reaffirmed October 80, 1919, and
it is declared Italy Will never accept
any other solution. Fiume will re-
ceive financial assistance so that 1t
may be able to re-establish it's life
and to resume activities under the re-
gime of q free port.
During the transitional period, it is
said, the Italian government will not
exercise its sovereign right over FL
ume, the independence of which shall
in no way be d hiaished or violated.
The government will not accept any
solution pending to separate Fiume
and the surrounding territory from
the mother country, and meanwhile
viii occupy and guarantee the integ-
rity of Fiume and It's territory with
regular troops, which will be eXclu-
sively of italian nationality.
The rights OF the local militia
which the city Of Fiume has estab-
liShed will be respected.

SHOWS EX- SOLDIER TEACHERS
WERE GIVEN BIG PAY INCREASE

In a statement this morning John
X. Sheehy, president of the Board of
Education, explained the conditions
prevailing in the case of the three ex-
service men, employed as school
teachers, who are not included among
those who will receive the $50 bonus
this year. The bonus, Mr.. Sheehy ex-
planned, is given to teachers with eI-
ception of new ones) in two equal In
stalments, $25 before Christmas and
the other $50 before the close of the
school term.
The three ex-service men, he said,
have not beer included in those ell
gible for a bonus owing to substan-
tial increases in salary given them
since their return. George A. Seaman,
who was an assistant instructor in the
manual training department before
the war was then receiving $3.50 an
nually. Upon his return from the
service he was made a regular teach
err at a salary OF $1,000, MI. Sheehy
said.
In the case OF Harold Evans, the
physical director in the high school,
he was receiving $1,000 before enter
ing the service and since his return
has been increased to S1,450 annually,
President Sheehy said.
j. Leslie Crowell, the other teacher
who was IN the service was teacher OF
a special class in the grammar school
at a salary of $1,000 before the war,
Mr.. Sheehy said, and upon his return
he was placed in the high school at a
salary of S1,450.
In the contracts which the teachers
must sign, Mr.. Sheehy explained, II
specifies hat q $50 bonus will be
given, in two equal installments, one
before Christmas and the other before
the end of the school term. In the
contracts of the three men teachers,
however, he points out, no mention OF
q bonus was made in lieu of the large
increases in salary which the board
had decided to give them. No request
has been received by the Board of
Education, Mr.. Sheehy declared, from
any of the three ex-service men asking
that they, too, receive the bonus given
other teachers.

CONGRESS- MAY PROBE
CHARGES MADE BY SIMS

~ -
WASHINGTON, Dec. 24:-Con-
g%resHonal investigation. 1t was indi-
GATED today, might result from the
controversy between Admiral Sims
and Secretary Daniels over the
awards of distinguished service
medals in the navy.
The report of the awards of the
decorations ave been transmitted
to the senate naval committee by
Secretary Daniels at the request of
Chairman Page. Representative Luf-
kin, Republican, Massachusetts,
member of the House naval commit
tee, said he would ask the House to
call for a similar report.
The issue which a been smould-
ering In inner naval circles came out
into the open with the publication of
O. letter written by Admiral Sims to
Secretary Daniels, in which he de-
clined to accept his distinguished
service medal unless the list of
awards were revised to include those
recommended by.~him to receive the
seoond highest decorations.
In his letter Admiral Sims. said
that of the nineteen officers recon-
men6ed by him for the distinguished
medal, only six received it. He de-
clared hat q commanding general
preEont was moro qualified to judge
relative merits of officers entitled to
HWNl as, ana that Il DOdlu VI
systems could not be fair and that
officers In important administrative
posts on shore occupied relatively
more responsible positions than those
serving at sea.
Secretary Daniels, in his report to
the committee, said the. entire con-
troversy revolved around the ques-
ton which class of service-shore or
sea-was more important. He ex-
pressed the opinion that only shore
duty of the highest Importance
should be recognized equally with
position of grave danger in the ac-
tive war zone. He declared hat UNI
der the law and by authority of the
President 1t was the secretary of the
navy's duty to make the final deci-
sion.
In response to Admiral Sims state
ment that the commanding officers
Of ships sunk by enemy ships, sunk
by submarines, should Aot receive
decorations, Secretary Daniels said in
his opinion the medal should be
awarded to those officers in command
Of ships of the navy which were sunk
by submarine attacks and whose
conduct was m~eritorious.
