Arthur Balfour, lord president of the
council, has addressed a note to M.
Kameneff bolshevik trade commits
isioner here demanding information as
ito whether additional Russian armis-
itice proposals to Poland are as I'M
officially reported The note which
was made public this afternoon, said
that upon Russias answer will de-
pend the future policy of the British
government toward that country.
Evacuate Many Miles.
This bolsheviki already have evacu-

cupation of BjeIostok (110 miles
northeast of Warsaw and less than
fifty miles south Of the bolshevik

A Copenhagen dispatch today re-
ported that a British squadron has
been ordered to Danizg where Ger
man workTnen have proclaimed a
soviet" and refused to permit un-
| loading of munitions from French
warships intended for the Poles. Brit
fish Commissioner Tower, saying he
would not be responsible for develop
ments II forcible unloading were at
tempted, had asked for military and
naval reinforcement.
Meantime General Wrangel's double
offensive in Crimea and the Don re.
gion was continuing successfully and
a News Agency dispatch said his
prisoners now total six thousand. He
has completely liberated the left bank
of the Dnieper and occupied the Black
sea coast in the vicinity Of Kuban.
An anti-bolshevik movement in
Ukrainia has led to the belief that a
linking up of Wrangel's forces with
the Polish army in the Czerovit2
region, on the extreme southern end
of the present Rpsso-Polish front, is
possible. Uprisings against the
soviets were also reported in the
Caucasus.

The new Wallace Reid picture, The

of the latest jazz dance steps as well
as an unusually entertaining screen
comedy. AS country youth lately

dollara-week JOB in his Uncle Enoch's
factory Mr. Reid, as YES" Tibble,
discovers that his fortune lies in his
feet and blossoms forth as the sen
sation of a Broadway cabaret With
pretty Bebe Daniels as his partner,
Wallic exhibits a choice variety of
unique dances, ranging from an
Apache number to jazziCal expose
of the manner in which the caveman
used to WOO his mate. The latter
dance required the handsome star to
don a costume of animal skins.
THE animal used for my outfit
must have been very small" laughed
Wallie afterward. The scene was
made on an outdoor stage at the

VANDY AND A. & M.
 PLAN ROAD RACE
Cross Country Will Prob ably Be Staged Between
 Halves of Grid Game

Nashville, February 19.-(Special.)- Through arrangements now being made with Mississippi A. and M, Vanderbilt will stage next fall feature event in a three-mile cross-country race between halves of one of its football games.
 Mississippi A. and NJ. has indicated that the third Saturday in October would be acceptable, and it is probable that this date will be agreed upon. Tn that event the race will take place between halves of the Vandy-Georgia Tech game on Dudley Field
 Each cross-country team will enter six
 men. The race will be run on the track around the gridiron and will be three mile event. In order to complete it be- tween halves the starver-s gun will be shot as the time-keeper's whistle blows for the molesskin performers at the end of the end of the first half of the foot ball game, and the second half of the game will start as the three-mile rsce is finished.
 While Vanderbilt has never put out any strong cross-country teams, placing her main track glory in her famous relay teams, it is probable that Coach Bill lssl- derson can select six likely distance men from this springs track squad. The dis tance runners will be given special train ing during the summer months under Coach Anderson's supervision and direc- ton.

CHATTANOOGA IS
 AFTER JOSH CODY
Lookout City Rooters Offer to Pay
 Part of Josh's Salary

Chattanooga, Tenn, February 19.-(Spe- cal.)-Josh Cody, veteran of the Comno- dores, and one of the most popular star athletes who has ever made southern college athletic history, may coach a CLattanot ga team next year.
 It was reported some time ago that Cody had signed up with Mercer Uni versity eleven, but Josh stated recently that no contract had been signed or agreement reached although he had been in frequent correspondence with the Ma con officials. Friends of Josh say that he is somewhat dubious of the Mercer job because Rube Zellers, former team mate of his, coached the Maconites some time ago and was never fully paid for his services.
 University of Chattanooga alumni and supporters interviewed Josh recently with view of having him sign as all-round coach of the university athletic teams starting in with football in the fall and going right through.
 , In the meantime, it became known that officials of Metallic school had Cody and had made him a flatering of fer to coach McCallie's teams. The ridge school, it is known, is determined to se cure a high-class coach for next year.

 Collins jumped to his feet in a rage reached down to the ground, picked ul a handful of dirt and let it fly.

 Then the umpire had extracted the landscape from his optics he looked a Collins, motioned toward the clubhous and said
 You re cut of the game.'' Collins, realizing that he had made al awful boner, tried to apologize.

.MORGAN WON'T SIGN WITH JACK PERRY
Britton's Manager Seems to Be Avoiding All Tough
 Boxers

New York, February 19-(Special.)-Is Dan Morgan willing to have his veteran champion, Jack Britton, take chance oc- casionally, or does he intend to help Jack to hold on to the welter crown until Father Time renders him unable to get into the ring?
 Now in his thirty-eighth year, Britton is 142- pound brigade, but evidently. picking his opponents with rare skill as attested
 by the action of Morgan in refusing tC send his champ against Jack Perry, the Pittsburg welter who has been pseting the slumber punch on all the boys or the first flight, including Eddie McAndrews of Philadelphia, whom he stopped cold in i've rounds. and Irish Patsy Cline of New York, whom he lambasted unmer- cifully in six rounds in Philadelphia.
 Perry, after several almost futile at tempts to show class as a mtt man. fin- ally got his bearings and during the past year has attracted wide attention by req son of his liberal use of hefty dream wallop. In style he resembles Champion Benny Leonard in action, having won derful left hand with almost uncanny ability to cross over wirn right that has never failed to bring home the groceries when it landed
 Perry's experience with the Britton- ewis-Griffiths combine would indicate liberal sympathy in favor of permit ting Britton to wear the titular head gear indefinitely. Griffiths and Perry met in ten-round scrap in Pittsburg last fall. For five rounds Perry punched Grif- fiths about the ring as he pleased, and in the final stanza had the Akron, O.. flash ready for a flop when the bell ended hostilites.
 Immediately after the bout Dan Morgan dropped negotiations for bout with Perry at Cumberland. MT, and the word went out that the Pittsburgher was so tough for the league" Since last october half dozen clubs have tried to bring Britton and Perry together, but always Morgan declines to negotiate, offering the excuse that he could not consent to give Perry a chance at the champ because Perry had said some means things about Rritton. Philadelphia promoters nave taken up Perry's cry for crack at the champ, and within few weeks Morgan will be called upon to offer substantial excuses or have his flimsy alibi para -fSd in the public prints
