At the special request of Lord Cur

the new parliament.
Before the interview Sir James said
that he had not been surprised by de
Valera's unreadiness to accept the
agreement at once.
The fact that the treaty comes up
for ratification in London and Dublin
on the same day gives Lloyd George
further cause for worry because some
members Of Parliament oppose accept
ing the treaty before the Dali Eireann
has approved it.
sitting of the Hous~ Of Commons
Wednesday and defer action on the
treaty until report is received from
Dublin as to the decision Of the Dali
Eireann. Perhaps an adjournment will
be taken for few hours and then. If
the Dail's decision is negative, no
4rther session will be necessary.
One of the best moves that the
British government has made TO aid
the peace settlement is tne release Of
( interncd prisoners in Ireland. Sixteen
hundred from Bal]ykinlcr Camp were
added to-day to the thousands who have
been freed this week.
The animosity between the North
and South was evidenced by attacks to-
day, in Ulster on trains carrying re-
leased prisoners. toward Dublin. At
Katesbridge and at Banbridge Orange
men threw stones and shot at the
trains, injuring one man severely. Sew
eral others we're cut by flying glass
from the car windows.
If by some mischance, dc Valera
should succeed Wednesday in defeating
the ratification move in the Dali
Eireann which will be sponsored by
| Griffith, the Irish situation would be
worse than before the negotiations
began. Just what the immediate de-
velopment would be is problematical,
but no further peace effotts are
dreamed Of.

MOHAWKS AND SOUTHERNS
READY FOR BIG CONTEST

Final arrangements have been
made for the big sandlot football
clash tomorrow at Union Park be-
tween the Mohawks, of southeast
Washington. and the Southerns, Of
southwest. A goodly crowd is ex-
pected to turn out for the game in
which there is widespread interest.
The contest will settle the aues-
ton as to whether or not the SEN
sational young Southern eleven is
capable of stepping out of it's class
and taking on unlimited teams. Ac.
cording to the Mohawk captain, Rob
Hardy, the Indians are out to yank
the southwest team "out of the
sky"
Neither Southern nor the Mohawk
eleven has suffered defeat this sea

of football against worthy foes, and
both have had plenty of time to
prepare for tomorrow's game. Play
will start at 3 o'clock.

N. Y. FAN.
Dear Sir: Replying to your query
i'm regards the Babe Ruth fine, wish
TO state the following: 1t certainly
seems a pity that one cannot follow
his vocation without having to be tied
up and bound by contracts, etc, TO
lot of financiers, judges. lawyers rad
money manipulators so that he can
only perform when they obtain imam
cial results.
/ think it is absolutely an outrage to
fine such a splendid ball player as
Babe Ruth the amount which Judge
Lands fined him, also together with
the suspension. Does Judge Lands
expect to keep his job, does the New
York Yankee baseball owners expect
to make any money, does any other
club in organized baseball expect 10
have the public witness ball games by
such attitude as this?
1 don't care a rap about the owners
or Judge Lands when l go TO see a
ball game. All that interests me Is
the men who are going to play; and II
Babe Ruth plays / go to see him not
the New York Yanks. / have sean
times when a ball club did not have
a popular star on their team that the
grand stands and bleachers were
empty. From all indications 1t seems
that the owners are trying to bring
baseball back to that stage.
What good is a ball club without
players whom every one is anxious to
see play? Babe Ruth has done more
good to baseball than any of the pres
emit day players. He does not deserve
to be fined. but on the other hand he
ought to be praised by both his bosses
and the Judge for giving the public
chance to see a real player In action
afte- the regular season was closed.
You can bet your bottom dollar that
IL Judge lands and the New York
Yankee owners were financially inter-
ested in Babe Ruth's ball playing after
the close of the season he would have
been idolized instead of fined.

Bill Dietz May Coach
Purdue Eleven
Next Year

Purdue University wants Bill
Dietz, the old Carlisle Indian
star, who coached its eleven this
year, to come back again in
1922. The only impediment in
the way Of Dietz accepting the
invitation is his uncertainty
about what the conference in
stitution has in mind for next
fall. Unless Purdue gets down
to business and decides to re-
juvenate its gridiron traditions
Dietz will seek another assign
msnt. Worry about his reputa-
ton as a successful coach has
led the former Carlisle hero to
exercise all his native Indian
caution. Dietz wants the Purdue
alumni to take more interest in
the pigskin sport at the alma
mater; he feels that they should
be more active in influencing
the right kind of high graduates
to seek naturalization at the La
fayette campus.
