HITS REPUBLICANS

dous Majorities Overridden and Complexion
of House and Senate in Doubt-Only One
State Stood by Harding.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
New York, Nov. 8.-Swept before
a rising tide of Democratic victories
in many states, the tremendous Repub-
lican majorities piled up in the Hard
ing landslide Of two years ago were
knocked right and left in yesterdays
elections.
The Republican majorities in the
United States senate and in the house
of representatives were sharply re-
duced, but Republicans refused to con-
cede that they had lost control
At noon eastern time today Is states
had completed their congressional cleo
tion returns, but neither Republicans
nor Democrats had progressed much
further toward control of the house.
The situation at that hour stood:
Republicans 1876; Democrats 1877; So
cialist 1. A majority to control is 218.
Iowa was the only state which has re-.
turned solid Republican delegation.
Not single Republican gain in the
house of Representatives had appeared
today to count against the inroads the
Democrats apparently made in every
state.
Various causes ranging from prohi-
bition to. tariff were being brought
forward to count for the result.
Representative Andrew J. Volstead,
Republican, chairman Of the mouse
judiciary committee and author of the
celebrated prohibition enforcement
law bearing his name, was beaten
, in the seventh Minnesota district ty
the Rev. 0. j. Kvale, running as an
independent and who proclaimed him
self "drier than Mr.. Volstead.'
Volstead was the first of the I'M
portant chairmen Of house committees
to be beaten in the Democratic tide.
Representative Graham, Republican
of Pennsylvania, is in line to succeed
to the chairnan5hip of the judiciary
committee.

Hohenhollern's walks around the
castle are. solitary no longer. With
his new wife, are in arm. he visited
the rose kavilion. whe.e not long

Soon the bridal couple retired IN

William saw his sister-in-law. Princess

station. while Fredrick William, the
erstwhile crown prince, took his new

.cially the feminine section Of It,, 's
still wagering tongues over the dis

righteous indignation among, the
women that no chance was afforded
them of seeing the bride.
"Her serene highness,' Herm1ne

by her husband, has not yet taker
up the reins of the household, bu'
those acquainted with her say she
intends to assume full control 1mme-

LEN0|R TO MEET
MARS HILL COLLEGE:


After losing 26 men off their
originally very small squad and be-
ing left with first string of men
whose average weight will fall we'll
below the $50 lbs mark. The fighting
Lenoirans are by no means discourag-
ed with their present football outlook.
With the game of two weeks ago
cancelled by Weaver College and
forced bv the condition Of the team,
to concel the game scheduled with
Lynchburg College last week.
The boys on the hill have been max
ing every day count in preparation
for their three last games of, the
season, realizing that to prevent the
present season from being mIser-
able failure, they must win and win
decisively these last three games.
Practices have proceeded until dark
ness hid, not only the ball but als;:
the players, from view-an1 the team
has undergone complete reorgina-
ton and renovation.
The two cripples, Norris and Hawn.
are back in the scrimeraging ag:jn
and will be seen in action against
Mars Hill on Saturday for the first
time since the Elon game. Two rev
men will probably appear on the
wings in the persons of Clemn1er and
Whitener, both freshmen who have
heen showing up to erv good example
lately. Olin Rudisill new lineman
will probably be given chance to use
some of the fight he has shown be
possessed, and Ful1! a big husky
freshman, who is showing speed and
drive. may be given call in the back
field. Carpenter, shifted from an end
to full back in order to do the kicking
and passing is developing into a
plenging back of no mean ability.
in srite of the 1,ct that only 1875
lbs he can muster. For positions in
the line the fight is waging that with
several new men whohae been on the
job only a week showing strong pro-
mise of getting in the game before
it's close.
