MORE TROUBLE AHEAD

Many estimable people are fondly of the opinion
that the troubles of America at an end-at least
in far as our relations with foreign governments
are concerned
They believe that because we raised an army of
100000 in few months and sent 100000 to France
we have demonstrated our superiority in such strik
ing that the rest of the world will be glad to
let us alone.
They are in error as was clearly shown when
England and France calmly ignored the threat of
President Wilson on the Jugo-Slav question
England and France expected enormous addi-
tional credits from the United States government
They did not get them.
They expected the United States to assume much
of the burden Of rcl.ablitatng devastated Europe
They were disappointed.
They charge that we commerciazed the war
and annexed the wealth of the world and that now
will not open money bags for the alleviation
of humanity.
They are disappointed -chagrined-
They will bide their time until the proper oppor-
tunity presents ITSELF. and then they will STRIKE
either commercially with the mailed fist both.
Just what particular form that retaliation will
take, no one on this side of the Atlantic knows.
But Europe has long memory.
It never forgets.

TOO MUCH LUXURY

American people are suffering from peculiar
dsease-an Unsuitable craving for the luxuries of
life
Time was when, if we had good home plenty to
eat and to wear and means of recreation and enjoy
ment, we were contented and happy
But not now.

want the feverish efforts to get it.
We never have enough-are never satisfied.

If Mrs Smith is at the head of the social whirl
Mrs Jones is not satisfied until she has supplanted
her.
If one man is termed our leading citizen dozen
others will aspire to the honor.
An abundance of the necessities of life is not
enough. We must have the uxuries of life both for
our own pleasure and to outshine other people, And
the lis. of fes uxures is so long and so varied that
no man or woman has ever been known to reach the
end. A2
Millions of people forego the necessities of life
in order to bask in the limelight of luxury They
lavish in adornng their persons and their surround
ings at the expense of their stomachs They enjoy
the tnsel of life and endure the pvaton3 necessary
in order to satisfy their vanity.

Winner Will Earn
Undisputed Right
AS Mat Champion

Earl Caddock and Joe Stechcr Will
face each other on the mat at Madison
Square Garden next Friday night in
a match that will settle the worlds
wrestling championship. These. two
are the greatest grapplels that ever de-
veloped their strength and skill in this
country.
Caddock was recognized as the cham
pion until he donned the uniform and
went to France When he became a
member of Uncle Sans army he de
clared he was through with the sport
This left the title open and gave
Stechcr an opportunity to work his
way to the top by defeating the lead
ing aspirants to the crown. The list
included 'Strangler" Lewis, Zbyszko
and all the other top liners.
Under the terms Of the match the
men must wrestle until one obtains a
fall. A few experts wanted the match
to be two out of three falls, but the
new order Of wrestling calls for one
fall as sufficient to decide the title.
Before he sailed for the other side
Caddock was considered the most Won
derful wrestler since the days of Frank
Gotch. A man of "a thousand holds
was the way the great grapplcr was
described. And he was worthy of the
title. for Joe Stecher was one Of his
victims.
1t was two years ago that Caddock
and Stecher met. and after three hours
OF wrestling Caddock was awarded the
victory on points. Each won a fall, but
wien it came time for the third and
decisive fall Stecher refused to appear
This gave Caddock the match

FOrdham's Hockey
Team Would PLAY
Leading Colleges

Fordham University is cXcrtng
from the gridiron last fall by an active
participation in winter sports. Basket
ball was revived this season as a maj jor
sport after being off Fordham's ath-
letic category for several years, and,
in addition, faculty permission was
recently granted for the establishment
Of a hockey team. Almost decade
ago Fordham was represented by a
freshman seven, but this is the first
time in the history of the Bronx insti-
tuition that the ice sport has been
attempted on an intercollegiate basis.
nounced last night that the Maroon
team will open its season with Bos-
ton College on Monday, February 2.
The contest will be staged at the 181st
Street Ice Palace. The Bostonians
have formidable aggregation and
already have several victories to their
credit, including a triumph over Har-
ward. Matches are pending with
Stevens Institute, Brooklyn Poly.
Army and Princeton. Efforts arc also
being made TO arrange games with
Harvard, the Navy and the University
of Vermont. The complete schedule
will be arranged shortly.
The first call for ice practice was
issued about month ago and twenty
five candidates reported. The squad is
being coached by member Of the
faculty and practice games are being
held daily at the "lalf- Mile,' a lake
in Bronx Park, of which the Fordham
collegians have been granted exclusive
use for their work outs.
Although the first team has not as
yet been definitely decided upon, the
lineup for the Boston College :rme
will probably be as follows: Ke. sey,
center; Muldoon, rover; McGuirk, ring
wing; Jim Tumulty, left wing; Van
Vie. cover point; lalloran, point. and
OBrien, goal keeper. Among the other
possibilities are John Tumulty, center;
Corridor, right wing; Mclaughlin,
point, and telstein goal keeper. ker-
esey is former star Of the Loyola
High School hockey team and the
Tumulty brothers played the game at
st. Peters Prep. OF Jersey City.
