One man. who was caught in Gen.

number of queer looking postage
stamps upon whici, were printed
Soviet propaganda matter The
authorities were able to enlarge this
to ordinary size.
Tho propaganda university which
has been established at Moscow Is
reported to be now devoting extra
ordinary care to literature intended
for two particular classes--women
and farmers.
The women are urged to join the
International Women's Communist
associations Of which. branches are
to he established in America and the
latter are urged to form farmers
communes with the ultimate purpose
of creating Farmers Red Guards.

tary Of the Sim Fein. has issued a
statement in connection with Father

president" but is not recognized as
having official authority by Secre-
tary O'Keefe, who said:
"Since the arrest of Arthur Grif-
fifth, acting president, there has been
no meeting of the standing commit

Graduate Manager Athletics
Coach McAuliffe Re-engaged

At a meeting held Monday, the
Colby college athletic council voted to
accept tho profkered resignation Of
graduate manager Robert L. Erwin.
Prince A. Drummond, Is, of Water
vile, was elected to succeed Mr.. ET-
win. The council voted to re-engage
last years football coach, John B.
McAuliffe. This action. it is thought
will assure Colby's football chances
for the next season. Coach McAul-
lie was most successful in building
up team strong enough to stop Bates
and to hold Bowdoin and Maine this
year, when the football resources of
the college were weak.
A more liberal policy for track ath-
letics was voted for and Coach Ryan
was instructed to set about making
up the next years schedule. In pur-
suance Of this policy, a new board
track will be built during the coming
vacation and will be set up temper
arily on Seaverns' field. Next spring
it will be moved and set up permanN
emily in the rear of Roberts. hall.
Work has been commenced on the
