The friends gathered about the old

Harris needed no urging, and in the

horseback for the still farther west.
Harris soon found that more judgment

EAGER FOR PEACE
WITH GERMANY
RESOLUTION Is TO BE PRESSED
EARLY IN EXTRA SESSION
OF CONGRESS.
BIG CONFERENCE TO Be HELD
Noted Diplomats, Including viviani,
at the White House-Poiicy
Not Yet Toid-French
Hope For It Soon.

WASHINGTON-S proponents
Of an immediate peace with Germany
by congressional resolution are un-
derstood to be standing firmly by
their intention to press such q resO-
luton promptly on the converting Of
the extra session of congress.
This information was obtained Sat-,
urday after day of White House
conferences at which the advisability
Of congressional declaration of
peace together with other questions
involved were understood to have
been discussed.
Whether the intention of peace
by-resolution senators has been ap-
proved by President Harding and
whether it has the support of senate
republicans generally, were matters
ON which no information was avail
able
Conference Is Important.
The conferences were generally
considered In the bearing on inter-
national affairs as probably the most
important that President Harding has
held since his Inauguration.
: Senator Knox. former secretary of
state and author of the republican
peace resolution; Colonel George
Harvey Of New York, selected as am
bassador to England; Myron T. Her
rick of Ohio, understood to be under
consideration for ambassador to
France, and Ttephane Lausanne,
French journalist. who came to
America with former Premier Viviani,
were. among those whom the presi-
dent saw.
Coupled With viviani Visit.
BY inference the days develop
ments were coupled with the visit OF
NJ. Viviani. Gossip about his mission
persistently has suggested that he is
supposed to persuade the administra.
ton not to push it's peace declaration,
but rather to consider on what basis
it might accept the Versailles treaty
Senator Knox and the president
spent more than two hours together
The senator's visit started a new out
cropping OF speculation about the fate
of the peace resolution.
The impression given was that a
definite policy was yet to be framed
-. Look for Announcement.
The impression that important de-
yelopments might be brewing under
the surface was strengthened by dis
patches from Paris which suggested
that the French foreign office was
expecting some announcement to
come soon from Secretary Hughes
M. Viviani conferred with Mr..
Hughes for an hour during the week
and although the explanation made
Of that visit, too, was ito pay re-
spects." it was interpreted in official
circles that the conversation must
have inevitably touched on important
questions at issue on the peace prob
| lem
Such information as President
Harding has gathered regarding the
real mission and opinions of viviani
has come to him indirectly thus far,
the former premier having been only
a few minutes with the president
when he formally presented a mes
sage of greeting several days ago.

MEET
Kansas Conference Athletes
Plan Entering Chicago Event.
Meet for All American Schools
May Rival the OIympiad.

| Emporia, Kan, May 6.-Plans for
the national intercollegiate track and
field meet, to be held in Chicago June
lis, are developing-a number of col
IIeges have announced that they are
expecting to send their best men. The
civic bodies of Chicago have assured
| Mr.. Stagg that they will help to make
| the meet a success. The track coaches
| of the country have very generally en-
| dorsed this meet and everything 1ndl-
| Gates that the meet will be national in
character and high class in every re-
gard.
| The committee has decided on the
| following events for the meet-1O0-,
220-, 440-, 880-yard dashes, 1-mile,
2-mile, 120-yard hurdles, 22O-yard
hurdles, high jump, broad jump, pole
vault, shot put, hammer throw, dis
Gus throw, javelin throw.
| Each school will be limited to a
| team of eight or ten men, the exact
number to be announced later. The
| competition will be by schools. The
profits of the meet will be prorated
among the competing athletes.
| This national meet promises to rival
| in Importance the Olympic games, and
| it will be of inestimable value to
sports in this country. Judging the
| calibre of athletes from dual meets
| held to date it is safe to predict that
| the Kansas conference will make a
| creditable showing if its members send
representatives to this meet, which is
highly probably will be done.
H. A1yea of Pittsburg and Keyes OF
| Southwestern are two OF the sweetest
| hurdlers in this section of the country
| and in a dual meet between the two
| schools last Saturday they divided
| honors; the former winning the high
sticks and the latter the low hurdles
| Keyes won the low hurdles in the Mis-
| souri, conference meet last year and 1t
! is safe to bet that both of these men
| will show up well in the national meet
Among the other Kansas conference
athletes whose performances to date
indicate a possible creditable showing

TO OPEN SEASON SATURDAY
Rossville Will Play Santa Fe Team
at League Park.

The Rossville baseball club and the
Santa Fe club of Topeka will open the
season in Topeka Saturday afternoon
at Western league park. Mayor H. j.
Corwine will occupy the pitchers box
to deliver the first ball, which will be
caught by Sheriff Robert Miller.
If the dope is running true, the
game should be a hot one. The Santa
Fe club was the only team which de-
feated Rossville last season, and then
it was by a narrow margin. The small
town team came victorious thru every
battle until it met the Topeka club on
it's home grounds. Cap Wells's men
are in fine form this year and the
lineup of the Rossville club is said to
be about the same as last season.

Lawrence, Kan, May 6.-Missouri
reversed it's form yesterday in the sec
cnd of the Jayhawker-Tige two-game
baseball series here, and won, 5 to 4.
The Kansas team apparently expended
it's hitting strength yesterday.
Inability to hit when runs were
needed and boobies at critical periods
allowed the visitors to score twice in
the fifth and twice in the ninth.
Long, a local find, was used in an
attempt to stop the Tigers, but the
jinx was against the Jayhawkers.
The victory virtually gives the Mis-
