sissippi College Glee Club Friday
evening at Belhaven College, fearing
that it might be- too amateurish,
guessed wrong, The club carries a
comedy sketch that would do credit

quartet that would answer the pur-
pose Of a complete lyceum number
Of first order.

could hardly have been given the
youthful players than that received
in Cunningham chapel at Belhaven.

gram were readings by the Tinnin
brothers, the comic sketches they
used having been composed by J. v.

of w. A. Keel, =. g. Lewis, M. A.
Greer and J. E. Richardson.

tor, possesses rare, sweet voice
and is distinct Iavorite as a
soloist. Mrs. M. r. L. Berry, ac-
companist, who with her son, sang
Awake, Dearest une,' also has a
charming voice, as indicated by the
liberal applause waich her number
on the program brought.
A mixed quartet, composed of Mes
DANES Miller and Berry and Messrs.

MILLSAPS MAJORS
BEATEN TWICE
GAMES UNINTERESTING G..
Henderson, McNease and Bagwell
Hold Visitors At Their Mercy. 7th
Inning Rally Wins Second Tilt.

In two of the slowest games wit
messed on the campus in many day
and quite in contrast with the four
games just preceding them, Ole
Miss won two easy victories from
Millsaps. Henderson who began the
first contest for Ole Miss had things
his own way, Millsaps scoring on
him only in the fourth. Ole Miss
players booted them around very
freely in the first game Wood get
ting two errors and Rosenthal, Gull
pepper, Ramsay, and P. Wilson one
each. Barbour hit well in this
game getting three out of three.
Millsaps got but three hits in the
whole game. The Scrubs played
the last three innings, some Of them
having been run~as early as the
fifth, and allowed Millsaps only one
run. None of Millsaps' men showed
up extra good. Due to the many
men used by Ole Miss only the score
by innings is given.
Ole Miss 0O2 5 @ a O O Oil

Second Game.
The second game found "Chief
Bagwell on the mound for Ole Miss.
Howorth opened for Millsaps with a
single and scored on hit by Long.
Ole Miss klotted the CO ir her
half of the same inning ~ by
Barbour, Parks and Wood. After
this the game rocked along until
the seventh with the score tied at
one and one, and with Ole Miss
playing as if dead despite the fact
that the Red and Blue nine played
errorless ball. Then in the lucky
seventh business began to pick up
after two men were gone. Bagwell
was given life on an error, Barbour
hit for two bases putting Bagwell
on third, Lester followed with two
base hit scoring Bagwell and Bar
bour, and scored a minute later on
Parks two bagger. Wood then
.rip7ed scering Parks, after which
Kirk Mas tl4r5wn out at first thus
ending the inning. Howorth again
crossed the plate in the eighth for
Millsaps when he, Herbet and Long
all hit safely. Ole Miss chalked up
three more in her half of this inning
on three two baggers by Bagwell,
Parks, and p. Wilson and a base on
balls to Murphy. Parks, playing
first base in the absence of f. Will
son played a good game and got 2
doubles and a single in five trips to
the plate. Wood got three out of
four. Lester at third handled eight
chances without a bobble and p.
Wilson ran him a close second when
he took six chances without an error.
The shortstop, strange TO say didn't
get ball during the game. Ho-
worth played the best game for the
visitors.
The box score follows:

RURAL TRANSPORTATION.

There are two methods by which
farm products can be efficiently de-
livered to shipping points: by
motor truck lines operated by private
individuals and companies; BY
motor trucks run by cooperative as
sociations of farmers and other busi-
ness men.
As the new good roads programs
are carried out, it is expected that
truck routes will spring up on every
hand. In the farming section near
Indianapolis for instance, there are
900 trucks now hauling live stock
to the city stock yards. These truck
routes cheaper the transportation Of
freight Cooperative ownership BY
farmers would seem the least ex-
pensive method Of running them.
The district around Oxford should
be thoroughly covered by such
routes.

The Indications were, it was said

Is gradually coming around to the
British idea that the Germans should
be left to settle their own troubles so
long as the peace treaty is not vio-
lated. The French are represented as
desirous of sending an Allied force to
the Ruhr Valley, on the ground that
the treaty has been violated there.
There seems no doubt that the strict
terms of the treaty have been violated
in some respects, but in tho British
view the violations have been unim-
portant and have not been carried to
IAN extent which would warrant the AL
lies in sending troops. 1t was pointed
out by one official that if such action
we're taken by the Allies the result
might be similar to the situation the
Allies made for themselves by sending
troops into Russia.

slider it necessary to state it's position

British officials, who believe that, aside
from the Essen complications, the stu

they have the balance of the country in

considered probable.

needed to make it good.
"The Freihcit," under the caption
"A Great Lie,' says "the government is
constantly asserting that great Red
army has been formed in Rhenish
Westphalia. This is an absolute un-
truth. The Rhenish Westphalian work
men only armed themselves to expel
the troops who had declared for the
Aappist government, and having sue
ceeded in that object they naturally
will not allow success to be snatched
from their hands and thus give the
troops an opportunity for a great mas
sacre.

Exemplary order prevails in all the
towns in Rhenish Westphala. No
streets are barred and nobody is pre-.
vented from working. The scare re
port is purposely spread as the pretcxt
for. massacre. which the beaten mill
tarists arc preparing in revenge foi
their defeat.
"It must therefore be stated that not
only are the supporters of the Inde-
pendent and Communist parties armed
but also the Right Socialists and
Democratic and Christian workmen."
"The Freiheit" further alleges that
the Doeberitz troops have been rein
forced by large numbers of students
and other rcactionary elements, who
are being armed by the Baltic troops.

In Ruhr Crisis

PARIS, March 24---The two German
officers who arrived here last night
from Berlin to explain to the Allies
the necessity for permitting the Ger
man army to enter the occupied zone
to restore order saw Premier Mllerand
this morning and told him the Ebert
government had ample forces ready to
deal with the situation in the Ruhr
Valley.
No decision was officially announced
but it is understood on good authority
the Allies have decided to give the per-
mission. and that all that remains to
be decided is what guarantees will be
asked of Germany to. insure that her
army will retire as soon as order is re-
stored.
The French government would have
preferred intcr-Allied action in the
occupied zone, while the British and
the Italians favored granting pcrmis-
sion for operations by the German
army. The French gave way on this
point in view of the acuteness of the
fuel situation in France and the de-
pendence of this country on supplies
of coal from the Ruhr district
French coal production has decreased
from the old figure of 10000 900 tons
to an average Of about 100000 tons
yearly. By the terms of the Treaty
Of Versailles Germany is bound to
cover the deficiency up to total of
20,000000 tons year. She has never
approached that rate of deliveries,
however.
English coal, which has been re-
ceived at the rate of 1,250o0O tons a
month. now costs $50 francs a ton
wholesale. Belgium is furnishing coal
at the rate of 100000 tons year.
With the German deliveries reduced to
about 100000 tons month the fuel
deficit Of France is now about 25,-
100000 tons.
The experiment Of procuring coal
from tho United States was tried by
France, but proved unsuccessful bc.
cause Of tho high freight charges and
the high rate OF exchange On the
restoration of order in the isuhr Valley
therefore, depends largely tho contin-
uation Of the French industries. With
out continuous and growing supply
of fuel from that source they will be
greatly hampered, with tho possibility
that partial shutdown would be
necessary. The Saar Valley is pro-
ducing only sufficient coal for Alsacc-
Lorraine.
Communication between Paris and
Berlin was interrupted to-day.
