Buddhist Priests rsme Fish

There is q certain bend of certain
river in Burma, where the fish are
venerated. tanned treated as pets and
called to meals by priests. Just why
this particular bend of this special
river should be so signaIy set apart
is not known but these priests are
Baddhists. There is perhaps a connec.
ton betweea this fayoriti IN and the
fact that in evc~y land where Bud
dh,sm is the faith, there are certain
places dedicated TO Buddha. and
strange superstitions woven about the
place. These FISH are a species of cat
fish which grow to a large size, and
they swim to the hank when called.
The priests not oaly iced the fish, but
they pet them rs we do dog or n
cat. Some are so tame they do not
even sQuirm in fright when they are
picked out of the water and gently
handled.

CONTEST IS DRAW
BUT VERMONT WINS

| A royal roofing band of loyal
Lyndon supporters numbering
about $50 cheered on the boys at
Centennial Field. Cheer-leader
Smith did a fine job directing the
vocal efforts of his townspeople.
Lyndon people were not the
only ones hollering for local vic
tory. About half of the freshmen
| class 200 in number, OF the Uni
versity of Vermont, logged out in
their green and gold skull caps,
were shouting for the Lyndon
gridders. When the latter were
fighting with their backs to the
wall and the st. Adams backs at
lacking ferociously, the old
"FIGHT" yell, that heartens the
Vermont teams, when they are
hard-put, also helped the Lyndon
scrappers. Fight, fight, fight,
Lyndon fights, etc.

COUNCIL DISCUSSES
NOTE FROM AMERICA
MATTER CONSIDERED IN STRICT
PRIVACY AND ONLY SUM-
MARY is GIVEN OUT
NO DECISION THIS SESSION
The Note Deals Specifically With
Mandate Attributed to Emperor of
Japan over All Former Ger
man islands in Pacific

Paris, Feb. 26.-The council OF the
league of nations, laying aside the sub
iect of the Polsh-Lithuanian contro-
versy, the American mandate note and
the question of how to satisfy the
league assembly's wish for greater pub
licity for it's proceedings, took up the
question Of disarmament yesterday.
The council will ask the powers
which signed at st. German, the con-
vention relating to control of traffic
in arms and munitions, TO ratify this
convention, declaring that until this
is done no progress can be made in
this direction. It was decided to nom
mate temporary commission to con-
slider q reduction in ornaments. Rene
Vivian. former premier of France, has
been asked TO accept the Craftsmanship
Of this commission. A recommendation
by the assembly of the league that an
organization be set mp 10 verify mill
tary information supplied by its mem
bers as provided for in the league Of
nations. cannot be carried out without
an amendment to The league covenant.
The council has decided TO leave to q
permanent military commission the
task OF investigating this subject fur
iher.
The council is still guarding as .
close secret its deliberation on the
American note concerning mandates
All guesses on the subject are being
denied as fast as they are made. Ar
thur j. Balfour was yexed yesterday
by a report that he had been charged
with drafting a reply to the American
note. The only information obtainabls
yesterday on the situation is that moth
ing has been decided on.
Paris. Feb. 24-The American note
respecting mandates occupied the coun
ell of the league of nations yesterday
/ 1t was discussed in strict privacy, anC
/ the council decided to issue only 4
brief summary for publication. The
note deals specifically with the man
date attributed to the emperor o.
Japan over all former German islands
tor, and calls attention to the fact ths
the United States government hai
never given its consent that the IslanS
OF zap be included in the territor.
under japanese mandate. The reser
walton is taken on the ground tina
zap has very important bearing il
the matter of cable communication
and that no power can limit or contro
its use.
The United States declares itsel
not bound by the terms of the msndat
and asks that the question be submit
ted 10 a new investigation.
Because members OF the council cor
slider il necessary to confer with thei
governments regarding the note it
considered unlikely that any decisio
will be cached at This session.
