MIx-UP AT STATE COLLEGE

The stag party and ge~t-to-gether
stunt that was pulled off at the State
college armory on Friday night was a
genuine success in everything the name
suggests or implies. There We're old
bucks, young bucks and stays of all
ages in endless variety and how they
could run and jump and romp-some
of them were as graceful as a cow,
others could even excel the elephant
in some of their star antics. The on
locker could certainly laugh and grow
fat. We heard one say that he hadn't
laughed so much since he ran a nail
in his foot.
For mixing things up n keeping
them going at steam heat hat man
Varney is a decided success. Volley
ball. basket ball and indoor base ball
bawled all over that big armory. The
business mems ball club in command
of John Sponsler, kept the profs so
busy that they forget to score long
after the start of the game and when
they did get an extra hitch In thelr
suspenders and a long breath, it was
everlastingly too late, their horns had
been clipped to the tune of 1S to 3.
Passing the buck" boxing and SINH
lar stunts were INDUCED in by college
students, downtown business men and
old gray headed bats that ought to
have known better. But them DC guys
like Geo. Cole and John Erwin are sim
ply ~irrepressable and you can't Knock
il into 'em that they are not spring
chickens and just a. young as they
youster be. The bout put on by
Jack" Roberts and Elder waits
would put Jack Dempsey or Bob F1tz-
simmons to shame any day. We know
darn we'll that the elder a knock
out a better and more forcible sermon
from the pulpit than he did on the
floor Of that armory and handle a
whole congregation without gloves.
Then there was Doc. G~ulbrandsen
1--WE take off IL hat to Doc.) and
John Roberts, the long and the short
of II. the fat and the lean of 1T. PIC
ture in your minds eye, if you can,
the long legged and hungry looking
camel and the little full breasted robin
scurrying across that big armory floor
In a race for life and there you have
'em. Don't it make you laugh? An
other good pair in the run n lift"
stunt were Bert Mathews and Clyde
Hinkley. OF course it would make you
laugh to see Clyde trying to lift Bert
off the floor with a hypnotic stiffness
in his knees-it couldn't be done.
We were in hearty sympathy with
the two microscopic fellows that were
under that fall of Bert Mathews while
"passing the buck" And when that
tall camel Shreves took the buck we
sure thought he would break in the
middle-and it wasn't any snap for the
other fellow.
Well, these are but a few instances
that came under our observation ana
Is but a small part of the actualities
and casualties but, IL you ever want
to make two laughs grow where only
one grew before, just take In the e.
stag party at State.

TBy The Associated Press.l

SPRINGFIELD, o., March Is
All National Guard troops on duty

helped the police patrol the city last
night, carrying shot guns and rifles,
while a dozen squads of machine
gunners manned motor trucks ready

GRIP ON
SOVIET TROOPS
Fighting is Continued at
Kronstadt and Petrograd
Reports to Stockholm Say

STOCKHOLM, March 15:-Rus-
sian bolshevik authorities seem to
be losing control of the soviet troops
il is said in dispatches received from
Finland and Esthonia. These mes
sages, for the most part confused
and unreliable, were pouring into
the city yesterday and last night.
Artillery fire from the fortress of
Kronstadt was directed yesterday
along the southern coast of the Gulf
of Finland between Oranienbaum
and Petrograd. Bolshevik artillery
men in Krasnaya Gorka shelled and
destroyed the lighthouse at Toll
baaken off Kronstadt during the
day.
A man who just arrived from
Kronstadt was interviewed Sunday
night and he emphatically denied
bolshevik reports that some of the
Kronstadt forts had been captured
by the bolsheviki. He said the rev.
dictionary leadership was wholly in
the hands of laborers.
Refugees reaching Stockholm
from Petrograd say the streets of
that city are strongly p~atrolled by
soviet troops and they declare that
the ordinary bolshevik soldiers ne
longer are to be trusted.

SPEAKERS PLEASED
GIRLS CLUB MEMBER

For various reasons, the Girls
Club meeting last night in the audi
forum of the library, was moi as
large in attendance as some of the
previous meetings, but if Miss Mary
p. Daniels, third district vice presi-
dent of the State Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs was disappointed. she
certainly did not show it.
On the other hand, she made the
meeting SO informal and Jolly that
few of the girls who were present
will soon forget it. Miss Daniels did
not take an hour of the evenings
time as expected and talk at length
on the doings of other clubs in the
city. On the contrary she spent the
evening learning of the Girls Club
doings in and out of the city in all
its various departments. She seemed
most interested and as this is the
only Girls Club in her district. which
is an individual member of the Fed
GRAFTON (not including the many
Junior Women'5 Clubs) the girls
talked freely of their ups and downs
and successful and unsuccessful en-
terprises. Miss Daniels was most en-
thusiastic and especially invited the
girls to attend the district fedora
ton meeting in Lockwood, Tuesday,
April IL.
Miss Daniels was the guest of Mrs.
A. Clayton Clark. of High street,
who accompanied her to the meet
ing. Mrs. Clark's presence also add
ed greatly to the meeting. She talk

and lauded them for their ambitions

WOMEN TO HAVE SALE.
FOR AID OF BLIND

On Thursday. March IL. between
the hours of 1880 and ) O'Clock.
the household and economics de-
partment of the Woman's Club will
hold a sale for the blind in the
chapel of the First Presbyterian
church in Rector street. Mrs. John
Sofield as chairman of this depart
ment will be assisted by Mrs. A. p.
Hanson, Mrs. William DeHaven,
Mrs. Ralph Seaman. Mrs. Hans
Gade, Mrs. John Kelly and Mrs.
Jesse Seaman on the committee and
the sale will include all sorts of arti-
Giles, both fancy and useful, made by
the blind people themselves.
The New Jersey state Commission
for the Blind, of Trenton, will fur
nish the articles for the sale and
these representatives will bring
some of the blind people from vari-
Gus part of the state to display and
demonstrate their work. There will
also be at least two or three people
from this city who have been helped
by the commission, present to DEM
onstrate their arts in basketry or
crocheting in all lines of which
there will be extremely pretty arti-
Giles for sale.
Easter is near at hand and those
women of the city who have not
purchased their Easter gifts are
urged to attend the sale on Thurs
day and select their gifts at that
time. 1t is miraculous that such
wonderful work, as will be display
ed, can be done by persons without
the use of eyes and, taking this into
consideration, the sale should be
very well attended and supported
not only by the members of the club
but by all of the women of the city.
