PROPOSE MEDIATION
IN GREEK CAMPAIGN
AGAINST TURK FORCE
(Ry Associated Pressl

PARIS, June 20-Offensive opera
lions against the Turkish Nat1onalists
in Asia Minor are opposed by Great
Britain, France and Italy, which have
despatched a note to the Greek gov
eminent, asking that King Constan-
tine postpone his campaign against the
Turks and accept mediation which
may settle the near east situation.
The note was sent to Smyrna, where
King Constantine and Premier Coun-
arts are at present, and it is believed
the Greek government will make an
immediate reply. Should the reply be
favorable, overtures to the Turkish
nationalist will quickly follow.
1t is understood the British stand
for the withdrawal of Greek forces
from Smyrna and the restoration of
Turkish sovereignty over that district.
Racial and religious minorities would
receive protection from an information
al police force, under the London plan.
An agreement regarding Thrace has
not been reached, and discussion has
been postponed pending the Greek re-
ply to the allied offer of mediation.
Ask for Report
Allied high commissioners in Sile-
STA have been asked for a unanimous
report relative to the frontier to be
esta blished between Poland and Ger
many in the plebiscite area there.
Should the commissioners be unable
to agree, experts will be sent to ad
just the situation, and both the Poles
and Germans will be forced to accept
the allied decision, which will be bas
ed upon the reports submitted by tbs
experts.
Lord Curzon, British secretary o.
state for foreign affairs, who came tt
| Paris on Friday for the purpose of con
ferring with Premier BRAND relative
! to the Near East and Silesian sltua
tions, has returned to London.

Basketball players of the city who
the summer coaching school now be-
ing formed at the Y. NJ. c. A. under
the leadership of Coach Ray B. Move,
of Earlham, are requested 10 attend
the first meeting to be held Monday

be over 16 years old to join this class.
This will be the first meeting of the
older boys class, and no actual work

an outline for the work of the course
this summer and stated that he
thought with the class meeting two
evenings a week, the course would be
completed in six weeks.
Any basketball player or person in
terested in basketball in Richmond is
eligible for these classes. The plan
of play and will be given from the
standpoint. After taking this course
a person should be capable of hand
ling any one of the three points with
ability.
Coach Move is very anxious for per
soAS planning 10 play Independent pas
ketbal this winter to get into this
class, and some very important point
| ers can be obtained that will be of
great help to any basketball player
This is practically the same course
that a person would get in attending
| the summer coaching school at the
| University of Illinois or other univer
| sites.
Being graduate of this school, the
| coach will use the same notes that he
used while at the school. He will
teach the plan of basketball used by
about four of the leading conference
coaches. This is a fine advantage for
the basketball players of this city
and the boys are expected to respond

ity.

CONTINUE EFFORTS
TO FIND COMPROMISE
MAYORALTY kSPIRANT

Continued efforts 10 bring about the
selection of one man on whom the
Republican forces of the city could
concentrate their forces in the prim-
airy election and carry through for

the city has expressed its confidence
in the present system of federal gov
eminent through political parties and
that it is now up to these parties 10
bring forth the best man possible to
insure a strictly business admlnlstra-
tion.
The opinion was freely expressed
that there are plenty of men IN the
city who would be willing to accept
the nomination for mayor If they were
assured the political forces would back
them, but that their experience being
chiefly in business and not in politics
they were not willing to make a
strenuous campaign for the position as
the city's executive.
Gath Freeman, who headed the fight
against the city manager form OF gov
eminent during the recent speclal
election, stated that his recent exper'
fence was enough to convince him
that the people of Richmond were
willing to concentrate on some one
who would assure them good adj
ministration He said that a com
promise could and would be effected II
all branches of the party here would
get together with the expressed pur'
pose of selecting a satisfactory man
