Have wondered why we stayed long.

Battle Of Note.
After an intermission of twenty
five years, Princeton and Harvard

Princeton won.
The Tiger hasn't been fed upon
victory since. The last decision
went to Harvard by a 3-to-O margin
in 1915, and when hostilities were
resumed in 1919 and then on through
1920 the two engagements ended in
draw.
There is every indication this
coming contest will provide another
hectic afternoon. despite the two
painful thrusts Princeton suffered
from the Navy and Chicago.
The Tiger, even with Lourie and
Clarity around, doesn't look as ro-
bust as he looked a year ago when
he also had Murrey, Scheerer. Lee
gendre and Callahan. But with
Lourie and Clarity interpolated, the
Tiger Will be quite another team

law by calling a strike of miners at
the Mackie Fuel company's mine sew
eral weeks ago.
When Richard Hopkins. as one of
the attorneys for the prosecution OF
Howat and Dorchy. began his argu-

Regret atLeauing Old Friends
Now Harding's Only Feeling
Spending Most of His Time Prior Becoming President
Of the United States, Strolling About Home Town
and Talking to His Acquantances.

THE only time I can realize it, Is
when I am dealing with appointments
and the problems that will soon have
to face" he continued.
Harding found the weather in Mar
ion almost as mild as in Florida. He
wore his light overcoat.
This weather is fine" he remarked
But I'd rather have it three days
from now than today"
Shouts Out '.Hey, There"
BY this time, Harding had reached
the Marion county bank and after
greeting some more old residents he
went in and deposited huge roll of
bills making out his own deposit slip
and waiting in turn at the teller's
window
Then after chatting few moments
with one of the bank officials, he
walked back to his headquarters
building several blocks away. AS he
was going down Center street one of
the employees of his newspaper hurried
by and failed to recognize. his boss.
Harding saw him and shouted:
Hey, there," and grasped the en-
ploye's hand and exchanged pleasant
word.

came. Flags and bunting decorated
the streets and buildings. There was
the stirring band music. But the final
scene of the Marion drama rose above
the surface demonstrations and swept
all present along on a wave of feeling
in which rejoicing was mixed with a
touch of sadness at having to yield
up these two neighbors whom they
had known so long,
No Politics Expressed.
The farewell was personal. not po-
litical. Everybody in Marion was
there from shop girl up.
The old cronies of. Harding's younger
days were there. There was Dick Cris-
singer and Jim Prendegast, the towns
leading Democrats, who burned up
hundreds of gallons of gasoline, haul
ing weary front porch visitors around
town last summer. They were there
because they loved Warren G. Harding
and Florence King.
Harding did little work today. His
train leaves for Washington early in
the evening
With the appointment of Senator A
B Fall for interior: Andrew w. Mellon
for treasury, and Will Hays for post
master general officially announced
Harding's cabinet selections have all
been confirmed except for labor, which
he hopes to announce today.
General Wood has under Amusement
today the offer to become governor
general of the Philippine Islands. He
expects to confer with Harding in
Washington after Inauguration and
will make known his decision then.

MORE To SCHOOLS
Salaries of Instructors Are In
creased by House. ---s--
X. S. A. C. Gets S550,O0O for
% New Buildings.

Members of the house ways and
means committee today raised the
ante for salaries at the big state
schools. The house committee for the
first time in years recommended
by the senate committee. House
guardians of the treasury also ap-
proved an allowance to the state agri-
cultural college of $3.50. 600 for build
ing projects and $4,000 for purchase
of additional land.
Boost in Appropriations.
Following hearings Tuesday night
the house committee today agreed to
boost the agricultural college sappro-
prIations. The committee granted
100000 year for salaries and wages
at the Manhattan school. This in
cludes an allowance of s45,00O a year
for new teachers. 1t also maintains
the present salary schedule for in
structors and heads of departments.
In addition to approving the salary
budget the house committee made the
following recommendations regarding
building and ex.~ sion work:
New wing agricultural building. $500. 600
Veterinary clinic building .......... 100000
Addition cafeteria and printing
Duiidlng. :. -; -;-..-.-.------ 10000
IurcnaSe new land. 5000
House Is Liberal in Increases.
By its action today the house COM
mittee for the first time in. a number
of years boosted salary allowances of
the senate committee for the state
schools. The senate committee had
granted but $4,000 a year for sala-
ries at the agricultural college. The
house went $1SO,0O0 a year beyond
that figure.
While it was in a cheerful frame
of mind the house committee allowed
the Aggies $4,000 a year for mainte-
nance. This is an increase of $4,000
a year over the senate grant. House
recommendations also increase the ap-
preparation for the new wing of the
agricultural building and for the cafe
terra $4,000 each as compared with
senate allowances.
Action of the house committee to-
day gave new hope to friends of the
big state schools. Appropriations
granted for salaries at the agricultural
college were taken as an evidence of
kindly feeling to all of the schools. If
the Aggie allowance is a barometer.
the senate will doubtless make conces-
sions and differences between the two
houses will be worked out in confer
eUce.

SLAP FOR lands
Senate Judiciary Committee
Publicly ReprOyes Judge.

While on Bench.

Washington, March 2.-Acceptance
by Federal Judge Lands of the posi-
ton as supreme baseball arbitrator is
inconsistent with the full and adequate
performance of his duties as judge. and
constitutes a serious improperly on
his part, the house judiciary commit
tee held today in recomm ending full
investigation at the next session of
congress of Impeachment charges
made by Representative Welty, Demo-
crat, Ohio.
The report of the subcommittee
was adopted unanimously by the full
committee altho Chairman Volstead
reserved the right to file a minority
report
1T am in favor of going to the bot
tom of the matter" he declared, "and
to the limit of the law in stopping any
such practice as that which is charged
in this case"
The subcommittee said the charges
of Mr. Welty involved 'the legal and
moral character" of Judge Landis' al
legged act in accepting employment as
baseball arbitrator at a salary of S42.-
500 a year and that it had found that
said act of accepting the employment
aforesaid, if proved, is in their opinion
at least inconsistent with the full and
adequate performance of the duty of
the said Kenesaw Mountain lands as
United StaTes district judge and that
said act would constitute serious i'm
propriety on the part of said juGge."
The report was signed by Repre-
sentative Dyer, Republican, Missouri,

New York, Boies, Iowa, Republicans;
and Gard, Ohio and Summers, Texas,

Representative Summers said in a
statement that he regarded the charge

Washington, March 2. = Champ
Clark, former speaker of the house
AID Democratic leader, died here to-
day.
Clark had been i'll for some time,
suffering from pleurisy, complicated
by stomach trouble.
Death had been expected for several
days, his physicians having given up
hope of his recovery.
Clark would have been II years old
next Monday. Three days before his
birthday Clark would have retired
from congress, where he served con-
tinuously since 1895, having been
speaker for eight years.
Gave Up Hope This Morning.
Clark was pronounced to be dying at
1880 p. m. today.
Attendants said that before the for
mer speaker fell into a coma his
mind was wandering in delirium
among memories of his long service
in, the house and of legislative battles
of the past.

KILL HOPE BILL
Defeats Measure for
New State School.
No Branch Agricultural College
for NickerSOn.

House members declared a field day
this morning on proposals for new
state schools. After passing the
Dodge City branch normal bill on
third reading, the house went into
committee of the whole and immedf-
ately showed it's teeth regarding add1-
tional new schools
Representative Hopes bill for a
branch of the state agricultural col
lege at Garden City fell by the way
side. 1t aroused an hour of red hot
debate and brought out the customary
motion to strike out the enacting
clause. When the argument finally
stopped Hopes bill had been added to
the-iist of house sealps.
There was considerable support for
the Hope bill from western members.
But the measure didn't win the pop
ularity which was in evidence when
the Dodge City normal plan was sub
mitted. Maybe the house was in
solemn second thought after its ap-
preparation of $4,000 for the Dodge
City school. In any event Hopes bill
was beaten almost from the start.
Fight on Yust Bill.
Then came a fight on the Yust bill
for a branch of the agricultural col
lege at Nickerson, Reno county. Rep
resentative Martin who had supported
the Hope measure, continued to battle
for a new farmer school in western
Kansas. He took the leadership in
supporting the Yust bill. When the
noon recess came friends of the Nick
erson school were fighting cour-
ageously. But the house was showing
mild enthusiasm regarding numerous
proposals to create new state educa-
tional institutions.
Other bills to create branches of
state schools were to be considered
during the afternoon session.

closed their doors for two hours to
observe the occasion and as the final
front porch meeting began, church
bells and factory whistles mingled
their voices in a sonorous message OF
good will.
But the real tribute was wrung in
the thousands of warm hand claps and
in the earnest words of "Godspeed"
which came from the neighbors as
they filed by after the presentation
ceremony.
Factories, shops, stores and homes
