start war against the French and Eng fish in no time if they thought they could get away with it.
 Many of the finest public buildings and halls in Coblenz are still held by the Americans for their use.
 Welfare organizations are estab- lished in buildings well suited for the entertainment of the troops. Army headquarters is in a big building oyer looking the Rhine.
 The German population in the ter ritory under American control is quiet and orderly. Sheppard said. Business is very dull. but all business estab. lishments are kept open. There is some hardship and lack among the Germans but there appears to be no actual suffering or want.
 Sheppard visited many of old bat tie fields. The trenches in many parts of France have been filled up and plowed under and the barbed wire re- moved. On the St. Mihiel front, and mp to the Argonne and to Rheims. which was vast network of trenches and wire for many miles. little has been done to remove the traces of war.
 Sheppard was discharged at Camp Dix. New Jersey. and does not intend to return into the service.

Sword Duelling At Heidelberg Remains Popular Diversion

HEIDELBERG. Germany. April ? Sword duelling in the University of Heidelberg is. popular an1 as common today as it was more than 500 years ago. when this oldest Of German schools was founded Vir- tually every student who has passed the first year wears a sword scar on the left side of his chin or the left tcheek, or a bandased head
 Duels do not always arise from an ger or Quarrels but out of the roc essity of providing the student win Ia diploma of sword prowess. or to give him sword practice which ar foids the students great delight They are sometimes arranged like boxing bout. by fraternities. Five round duels are popular
 Surgeons stand by to sew up the wounds after each round. which usu- ally last minute" said Heidle- berg man who wore a deep scar on his chin. If neither student is bad ly damaged. the fight will go the full number of rounds decided upon. aft CT which the stitches the surgeons have taken will be counted and thea man with the fewest stitches will be declared the winner
 Should at any time during the encounter, combatant dodge sword stroke his opponent is inme- diately declared winnen That is the unforgivable thing in the student duelling code--to dodge stroke"
 Except infrequent combats be- tween older students. when heavy swords are used. duelling in Heidelberg is not dangerous. The heads and necks of the fighters. and the abdomen, are protected by leath- CT guards.
 Some of the favorite duelling place are ancient cafes and beer rooms, the floors of which are always covered with sand the walls lined with huge mugs and hung with engravings. old pictures. and trophies of the fight.
 The university is still a law unto itself and the civil authorities of the town of Heidelberg never, under any pretext interfere in student affairs.

pattern being both light and heavy.
There is narrow line of black EN-

The collar is of blue fox. As n strik-
