DEMOCRATS DODGE
THE IRISH issue
London Dailies Claim
Bourbons Will Evade
Taking Stand
(By Universal Service)

LONDON.-The Democrats are 60
ing to dodge the Irish issue in the
same manner as did the Republicans.
That is the substance of all de-
spatches to the leading London
dailies from their correspondents in
San Francisco, Washington and New
York.
The Morning Posts correspondent
promises his paper that among de
Valera's green plank" in the Demo-
cratic platform will only be SUI.
ficiently vivid to hypnotic the dee
gates adding that the Democrats
will not endanger the relations be-
tween the United States and England
and thus give the Republicans the
chance to say that the continuatio
of the Democratic administration
would be tantamount to inviting war
with England. The correspondent
represents the leader as we'll as the
rank and file of the Democratic party
as extremely bitter against England
because, he says, they believe the
British want to see Senator Harding
elected. 1t should be said in this
connection that nothing has openly
developed on this side to confirm
that view.

GLAND EXPERT HAS
new SENSATION
Will Rejuvenate Wom-
en- in Same Man
ner as Men
(By Universal Service)

PARIS.-Dr. Serge Verenoff dis
coyeror of the fountain of youth
via the. monkey gland route, has
sprung a fresh sensation by declaring
in new book just out that within a
few years it will be possible to re-
.iuyenate women by means similar
to these by which it is now easy to
make octogenarians and not like
spry youth.
while it is already possible to
rejuvenate women by the identical
method of grating ape glands now
used in the cases of men," writes DR..
Verenoff, 81 do not advise women to
undergo this operation for the
present because they invariably
grow boards and acquire bass voices
and other male characteristics. These
setbacks are sure to be eliminated in
future experiments"
DR.. Verenoff intends to sail for
New York on July Is.
In his book he dissertates on the
irony of woman having face of
twenty and body of sixty" and ad-
vises the fair sex to wait with their
regeneration efforts until the process
can be made complete.

INDIANA SENDS
MANY STUDENTS
TO OTHER STATES

Bloomington, Ind, Dec. 17.-Many
young men n women of Indiana
are seeking their university training
In state-supported universities of 9TH
er states surrounding Indiana, the
committee of state universities and
normal schools reports after an ex-
tensive survey. In the state universi-
ties of Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin.
OHIO and Minnesota, there are 1865
Indiana students enrolled, according
TO the committees figures. From
these five states Indiana university
has but 80 students enrolled while
Purdue university has but 1913 reg
istered from these states.
An analysis of the survey. shows
that $50 Hoosier students are attend
ing the University of Illinois while
five years ago only 1919 Hoosier stu
dents were registered there. At this
time there are 1922 students from In
diana cities and towns attending the
University Of Michigan. ia at the
University of Wisconsin. 81 at Ohio
State and 8 at the University of Min
nesota. Five years ago only a small
per cent of Hoosier students were at.
tending these state supported univer-
sites.
The drift the committee pointed
out, Of Indiana students to other state
universities in Illinois, Michigan, Wis
%consin, Ohio and Minnesota parallels
the increased public support these
universities have received in. the last
five years.. Liberal support of the
surrounding universities has enabled
them to take from the state supported
schools in Indiana the best faculty
members n following them have
gone large numbers Of Hoosier stu
dents.
