CAMPAIGN TO GUIDE
DESTINY OF BRITAIN
is IN FULL SWING
BY LLOYD ALLEN

LONDON, Oct. 27-The campaign
between Premier Bonnar Law and
Lloyd George for supremacy in British
politics was in full swing today.
First utterances of the two are
without bitterness. Neither made at
tacks on each other but confided them
selves to enunciating policies which
when analysed do not vary greatly.
The lack of definite issue in the
campaign leads many observers to be-
lieve that another coalition govern
ment is inevitable after Nov. 20, the
date when the new parliament meets
The general election is to be held Nov.
Is.
Lloyd George left this morning for
Glasgow from where Bonar Law has
just returned.
Program Favored
The program of Bonar Law, as an
nounced in a speech at Glasgow yes
terday, was favorably received II
many quarters, although it received
much criticism because of the lack OF
definiteness.
According to the Post, the premier
promises nothing except to do his best
and plainly tells the country that the
people must get down to work and re
build prosperity with their own hands
The Times declares his platform is
straightforward, and applauds its mod
Grafton.
Bonar Laws policies are sneered al
by the Chronicle, which claims that
he has failed to show a reason fol
throwing Lloyd George out of office
since he proposes to do nothing but
what already has been done.

STAGE SET
FOR BIG HOMECOMING
PROGRAM ARRANGED

The stage is all set, ready to rise
Saturday morning on the greatest ath-
letic celebration of the year at Earl
ham college. All the powers Of the
student body and faculty are being
bent toward making Saturday, Oct %,
the biggest Homecoming the Quaker
college has ever known.
With the football game with Han
over, the annual Ionian cross-country
run, a good movie and a big bonfire
as features of the day, 1t promises to
fulfill the expectations of the most en-
thusiastic The campus will be in gala
attire of maroon and white, and a pa
rade up town Saturday morning will
add the necessary air of Importance
to the setting.
Although it is impossible to estimate
accurately the number of old students
and alumni that will return to their
Alma Mater for the big celebration, re-
ports from different vicinities indicate
that record crowd will be on hands.
Under the leadership of Professor E.
P. Trueblood, chairman of the faculty

about 10 o'clock by the student body

Monger, will furnish music to the pa
raiders. Songs, yells and music will
advertise the events of the afternoon.
In former years Earlham enthusiasts
have sought to advertise home-com.
ings by whitewashing the town with
advertisements. Nothing of this kind
has taken place this year and those
in charge hope to substitute a real big
rousing parade and pep session in its
stead.
The relations between Richmond
and Earlham are better this year than
ever before, fact which the college
greatly appreciates, and those in
charge of the demonstrations this year
wish to keep up the good feeling.
Maroon and white will decorate the
campus and college buildings and
signs and posters advertising the
game will direct the crowd to Reid
Field A multitude of maroon and
white balloons are on hands for the
rooters. and every possible feature
which might add to the celebration is
being planned by the committees. AL
