 Not all of these zoo will be able to find cm- ploymcnt and those who do will necessarily displace others who must in turn seek other employment.

THE SITUATION IN THE EAST

The date set for the conycning of tn" dis armament conference is scarcely three weeks away. There has been good deal of contuN ion regarding the purpose of that conference. Possibly the time is coming when we must get straight down to bedrock and grasp th" true siynifigamcc of what the statesmen haV" been telling Ills for the past six month,-or at least remember that they did till it to us.
 IL was away back in May that Bliand, speak ing officially to the French parliament, drclar- ed that the situation in the Orient was lntens- Iy critical and talked of the possibility of war between the United States and Japan. On July Lord Lee, speaking for the British gov crnment, declared the situation in the East so delicate that its settlement brookcd of no de- lay, though he mentioned no countries by name. On the same day Ambassador Harvey warned that disarmament or even cmtaIment of naval construction would he impossible nntil the problems of the Pacific had been set tied. The Harding invitation to the powers to join in this conference made the solution of this problem the primary and disarmament only the ultimate object of the negotiations. Both the president and Secretary Hughes have repeatedly warned us since then that the chance of reducing military establishments depended on a accommodation of political is sues.

WANT GAME Between =.
NOTRE DAME AND CENTRES

Football fans the country over are
hoping Notre Dame and Centre Col
lege meet in the proposed game on
the coast.
Sport enthusiasts always like TO
be able to point to a certain individ-
ual or team as the champion. This
is seldom possible in football.
Football schedules are arranged
by the different colleges in a rather
haphazard fashion. 1t is impossible
to arrange these schedules in such
a way that it will be possible TO
determine the champion in each
particular section.
Most colleges have one or two
rival teams they desire to beat.
These certain games r regarded
as the high spots in the schedule.
In most instances the winning of
those games causes the student
body to regard the season a success.
even if all the others are lost.
Usually the schedules are arranged
with the intent to keep the eleven in
top form for these particular con-
tests. In a good many cases the
intervening contests are looked on
in the nature of practice games.
This year Offers an unusual posi-
bility. If Centre and Notre Dame
play, the winner of that game will
be highly regarded. If the winner
of the game could be matched with
the winner of the California-W. & j.
game, we would just about have the
college champion. u
All of which is probably nothing
more than a pipe dream, but it's in
teresting to even think about.
