The latest bunk is the report, cried by
some from the house tops, that Johnny
fessed to professionalism" Can you
imagine a ridiculous effort to make
scandal out of that case! Mohardt closed
his athletic career with the end or the
1921 Notre Dame grid schedule He had
served out the allotted time in college
competition, and he served it we'll In
December he played with Racine 1nde-
pendent team. No effort was made to
hide the fact. Announcement was made
in Milwaukee papers that Mohardt was
to play. He had nothing to hide. Now
here two months later some people would
make a scandal out of Johnny's case, and
cast reflection on his reputation as an
athlete.
It's time to put a check to this effort
to break down college athletics and ac-
cuse all the stars Of professionalism.
Locke and Devine Of Iowa have been
cleared after having been accused false
ly by an irresponsible small-tOwn Cos
siper.
There are signs indicating that there
may be an organized effort on the part
of professional promoters to break down
college sports by keeping the agitation
going. The public gradually has been
turning to college and high school sports
for their entertainment In preference to
the professional brand. and the men Of
big money are said to be trying TO find
u OF checking 1t and thereby swing
public favor back to professional sports.
It's time to use a level head. Quit
grasping at rumors and insinuations re-
garding the college boys. Let them
alone. In other words. lay of the college

policy of serving Autocar owners
in the principal commercial centers
with it's own Factory Branch organ

motor truck users have right to

itself by ever recurring repeat
orders until the bulk of all the motor

fill repeat orders of former users.

Their arrest was said to have been

five. gasfitter: Walter Kirby. twenty
three. property man at motion picture

The police said Mrs. Rupp had de-
clared Kirby and Calvert had made open

All six of the men have been held

SEES SIGNS OF SPRING
when WOMEN TURN
TO MAKING MILLINERY

An invaluable sign of spring
which totally discards the theory
of tho first robin was revealed
today by Walter B. Patterson,
director of special schools. Mr..
Patterson has discovered that
woman Is a far better prophet
of the seasons than the fowls of
the air or the beasts of the field.
When a woman's thoughts at
this time of the year turn to
hats, spring must certainly be on
the wing, according to Mr.. Pat
terson's theory. And woman's
thoughts already have turned to
spring, Mr.. Patterson said. If the
heavy increase in enrolment in
the millinery classes of the Tech
High night school can be taken as
criterion. In the last few days
the registration in the five milli-
merry classes at Tech has increased
by leaps and bounds and the
women who have been lucky
enough to gain admission are
assiduously working on new
spring finery.

PRESIDENT PUSHING.
REORGAN|z|NG
Wants Early Action by Con-
gress on Proposed Changes
in U. S. Departments.

: 1t is President Harding's intention
to lose no further time in whipping
into shape the. definite plan for re-
organization Of the government de-
partnents. bureaus and independent
agencies that the. matter may get
early action by Congress. He spent
the greater part of yesterday after
Moon and this morning in considera-
ton of the tentative plan of reorgan-
ization submitted to him five weeks
ago by Walter c. Brown. chairman
of the joint congressional reorganiza-
ton committee: According to White
House advices. he will shortly have
the plan in definite form and ready to
send to the Capitol.
1t is necessary ror the President to
confer with each cabinet officer indi-
vidually regarding the proposed
changes in his department before the
mite form.
There has been some delay in this
respect, due to opposition on the part
of several cabinet officers to changes
and transfers affecting their respective
departments If the tentative plan is
adopted. 1t is known that Secretary
Wallace is adverse to losing several i'm
portant bureaus now under his juris-
diction-namely, the forestry bureau,
which Is slated to go to the Interior
Department; the bureau of markets and
the bureau Of public roads which are
placed in the Department Of Commerce
by the new plan
However, practically every department
and bureau and independent agency of
the federal government is more or less
seriously affected by proposed changes
and transfers, all Of which has been
proposed with the view toward promot-
ing efficiency, reducing expenses and the
removal of departmental overlapping of
authority and duplication Of effort, ac-
cording to Chairman Brown.

Charges of faulty construction in
private homes built recently and
steps to assure the community of the

gathering in the vicinity were fea-
lures of discussion and action at the
meeting of the North Capitol and
lexington Citizens Association. held
last night in the Emery School, Sell

The matter of private home con-
struction was brought before the as
ISOLATION by. a letter from g. S.

ton. who criticised the construction,
especially with reference to the
plaster now being placed in private

of such homes on account of the

I, Theaters Are Discussed.
From this topic the subject broad
ened into a discussion of the safety
of the neighborhood theaters. A
motion was passed unanimously re-
questing the delegates of the assoc
citation to the Federation of Citizens
Associations to bring up the matter
before the federation in order that
unified action might be taken on the
proposition with respect to other
theaters in neighborhoods through
out the city.
The association also requested that

In Favor OF Alternates.

viding for alternates for regular dele
gates. The vote on the amendment
to permit 10 per cent per capita dues
from the member associations of the
federation, with q minimum Of SO
and a maximum of $25. was in the
negative, and the association pro-
posed a substitute of $40 uniform
fee from all member associations of
the federation.
The "one-man street car" again
came In for severe criticism at the
meeting and the association voted a
boycott on such vehicles except in
cases Of emergency T. Homer Hall
brought up the matter with a request
to follow up the action of protest al
ready taken against the oKe-man
cars. He declared that he "hated to
see them on the streets of the Ma

One speaker from the floor char
acterized them as death traps" He
pictured an automobile truck top

bility of persons leaving the car. ex-
cept by one exit, together with the
possibilities Of deaths from such
causes. The reduction of one-third
of a cent in street ear fares was
treated facetiously by few speak
ers, and motion was adopted con-
demning the action of the utilities

reduction. The association voiced

broaden the act by extending its pro-
visions to other classes of govern
ment workers. Representative Lehl-
bach said:
There have been suggestions made
to the committee on reform in the
civil service that the act be amended
so as to embrace classes of employees
other than those originally in the
act. The Original retirement law pro-
vides that the President by executive
order may extend the provisions of
the act to any or all classes of en-
ployes to whom he may deem it ex-
pedient. 1t seems to us as a committee
that the proper procedure for the
classes of employees who seek to be
covered under this law is to make out
a case to the executive and not seek to
have the law amended"

HUMANS AND ANIMALS
electrically OPERATED,
new SCIENTIFIC THEORY

By the Associated Press.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. March THAT
men and animals are electrically
operated mechanisms. whose cells
are the batteries from which radi-
ate a more complex wiring system
than any designed in the world OF
science, was a theory advanced
by DIR. George W. Grille of Cleve-
land, Ohio. at the closing session Of
the meeting of the Kentucky.
Tennessee and Arkansas sections
of the American College of Sur
geons.
DR.. Grille said that in working
on this theory he had gone outside
the realms of pathiugy and physi-
ology in searching for the solution
of the mechanism of death. and had
found partial answers at least to
his questions in the realm OF
physics. The speaker suggested
study of this theory as a possible
means Of reducing the death rate
in operations through Building up
Of the electrical energy OF the body
prior to the operation in order that
the patient should be able to react
favorably from the shock. DR..
Grille announced that he was con-
tinuing his Investigations along
this line and would probably be
able to make positive announce
ments of results attained within
q short time.
