TRACTOR SERVICE SCHOOL

Much interest is being manifested
in the Tractor Service School at the
Normal Farm, and the attendance
continues to increase from day to
day, which proves that the instruct
ion is valuable and that it is being APP
preciated. If you have tractor or
are interested in power farming you
cannot afford to miss these lectures
and demonstrations.
Besides the tractor demonstrations
ar expert betting engineer is here to
tell you how to get more efficiency
from both your belt and tractor. This
is very important because few tractor
users understand standard betting
practice.
The schedule for next week IS as fol-
lows: The Case tractor will be dis
seeted, explained and demonstrated
and an oil engineer will talk on fuels
and fuel economy. The efficiency of
all tractors is dependent upon fuel
economy.

ATHLETIC CLUB TEAMS LOSE

The Business Mems Athletic Club
organized two teams. one for basket
ball and one for volley ball. and trav-
eled to Hudson Monday night to meet
teams of the Athletic Club there.
The Hudson men have had consider
able experience at volley ball, while
our team knew nothing of the game
prior to week or so ago. For some
in the River Falls lineup it was the
first team game they had ever play
ed, and the consequence was that Riv-
er Falls lost all three games by scores
as follows: 1873, 1877, 15-9.
The River Falls volley ball team was
composed of E. Kircner, H. Clark, H.
Stewart, W. Fortune, H. Elertson, l.
Stewart and G. Kolstad.
The Hudson basketball team was al
so victorious, downing the River Falls
quint by a score of Is to II. The
Hudson team had three old-time stars
in the lineup, Goldberg, Bailey and
Rock. and excelled the River Falls
boys in team work and all round play.
But with one or two positions
strengthened and some teamwork the
River Falls quint would give the Hud-
son bunch real game.
The River Falls team was composed
of the following players; Nichols,
Barg, Smoland, Hurd, G. Brown, Al.
Brown and Davis.

La Crosse Eliminated

In another burst Of speed such as
that which they exhibited against the
Minneapolis "Y" few weeks ago, the
Red & White prs La Crosse Normal
out of the runnin.s by defeating them
here last Friday for the second time
this season.
In the first half the River Falls
players fed" Carolan, and "Jim' sure
did ''eat 'em up" 1t was different
style of play than the Keelerites ex-
pected, and they were totally at loss
while the locals mixed short and long
passes about the floor, and then slam
med the ball to Carolan under their
basket. "Jim" took them from all
angles, from hand to hand short
pass to an especially long and vicious
one which Morrow shot to him across
the entire length of the floor Carolan
Gagged six field shots and three gifts
for a total of Is points in the first
half, or one more than La Crosse
made in the whole game.
The second half was different again.
In this period River Falls showed the
world how the short pass game should
be played. Keller put in Reynolds
with orders to guard Carolan, and for
a couple of minutes the boy did pretty
well. But meanwhile it came to light
that the other four locals were at
large, and the short pass game was
working so fast right through the La
Crosse defense that the scoring con-
tinued as before, and Carolan was do
ing his share in the teamwork, with
Rice and Gurnoe leading the scoring
1t went so fast that the spectators,
who had nothing else to do but watch
the play, lost track of the ball half of
the time, and the La Crosse players
lost track of it most all of the time.
The score at the close of the first
half was II to 10 in favor of River
Falls; the final score was SO to Ia.

THE administration has finally tax
en- the public into its confidence
IN respect to its plans for trying 70
bring about an international agree
ment for limitation of ornaments.
The president, through the secre-
tary Of state, has felt out the four
other great powers-Great Britain,
France, Italy and Japan-as to their
general attitude on the subject.
The first step is more or less in
formal and unofficial. But the re-
sponses are favorable as it was hoped
and expected they would be with the
exception of detail in Japan's re-
ply, which undoubtedly will be ad-
justed, and the proceedings will like
ly pass at once from tie informal
and unofficial to the formal and of
fetal stage.
Each of the powers will be invited
to send delegates to a conference to
be held in Washington.
Certain 'irreconcilable senator's,
who refuse to be pleased with any
IiiitiS IIG uOGS, bIlII-
else these plans because France and
Italy have been included and because
it is proposed to discuss the question
of policy in the Pacific as well DIS
armament limitation.
This seems to be a narrow and
view.
SO far as France and Italy arc
concerned, while they have not the
same interest in the naval aspects
of disarmament as the other three
powers, they are great military ma
tons and their participation in The
conference will greatly add
to its Importance and prestige.
Either of these nations is quite as
likely to furnish the moral leader
ship which is necessary to the sue
cess of the great enterprise, as is
America, Great Britain or Japan.
As to the wisdom of including a
discussion of policy in the Pacific
the program of the conference.-the |
critics of the administration haven't

leg to stand on.
That is the enc thing that must be
discussed and decided if the confer
cnce is to have any good results
whatever.
The mad race for naval suprri-
GRITTY is largely due to fears and sus-
picions among America, Great Brit
ain and Japan, regarding the policy
in the Pacific.
Once these fears and suspicious
arc removed, in the only way they
can be removed, by frank discus
sion, the greatest obstacle to an
agreement for the limitation Of naval
ornaments will have been overcome.
BY including this Pacific question
in the conference program, the presi-
