Against the stubborn defense of the

the score was the same.
The Hatchetites made a creditable
showing, considering It was their first
game and the second scrimmage Of the
year against a team.
Two Of the Hatchetite players who
went through the game had been out
but three days. The team, as
whole, showed surprising good defense
on running plays and on forward
passes, although weakness in fhe cen
Ter OF the line was apparent and taken
advantage of by Virginia for consist
ent yardage.
AS a measure of the defensive
strength of the Hatchetites, it may be
recounted that the team stood Vir-

within the 20-yard line and twice on
the brink of the goal line.

Washington. --Investigation by the
Department Of Justice Of all major
wartime contrhcts with the govern,
ment has begun. Attorney General
Daugherty announced.
To handle the work. which has the
approval Of President Harding, Mr..
Daugherty said a special bureau is be-
ing organized which will have as its
head some weII-known man Of proved
ability and a staff of experts In diff,
ferent lines OF business.
The purpose Of the investigation. he
explained, is to sift the wartime deal

viduals with the government In order
that those guilty Of dishonesty may
be punished and those whose dealings
have been fair may be cleared from
what he declared were suspicious
prevalent In the public mind that all
of the governments war contracts are
open to question.
Declaring that the investigation was
not directed principally 'at the little
fellows" the attorney general said:
We viii throw back any minnows we
catch in our net and let them start
over again"
At the conclusion Of the work, Mr..
Daugherty said he would submit re-
port to the president but meanwhile
would not disclose the progress CT the
investigation lest the governments
work be hindered.
MIR. Daugherty expressed confidence
that the great majority OF the business
men who had dealings with the gov
eminent were beyond reproach in their
methods, but that there had undoubt-
eddy been great many instances
where business had been done on an
unfair basis.
