STRAITS CONTROL
REAL PROBLEM OF
CONFERENCE NOW

Lausanne, Dec. 11.-(By Asso-
ciated Press. )-The question OF
how control Of the Turkish straits
will be administered. whether
through some body under the
league Of nations or under some
international unit wholly separate
from the league--is being general
ly asked by members Of the Near
East conference delegations which
have no representatives among
the military and naval experts
who are discussing the straits
problem informally with the
Turks.
Inasmuch as Russia, Turkey
and America are not members Of
the league of nations, there
doubtless would be strong objec-
tion to any plan to make control
Of the straits a league affair. Lord
Curzon has only once alluded to a
plan for the administration of the
terway and then only
In the most indefinite way,
saying that 1t had not been de-
cided whether regulation Of the
straits would be placed under the
league or some other organiza-
tion.
Ismet Pasha, and his Turkish
associates are a little more friend
ly to the league idea than are For
eign Minister Tchitcherin and the
other bolshevik leaders who de-
nounce It at every opportunity.

High School Seniors
Are Entertained

The senior class of Alexandria High
School has begun its social whirl with
the party given them by the Y. NJ. G..
A. at the home of Mr.. and Mrs Harry
B. Cation in North Braddock Saturday
evening. This gay life will doubtless
continue for the young people until
they have been presento-i with their
"sheep skins" commencement day. But
why go to high school four long years
if there are not some cOmpensationS
in the end?
The lawn of the Braddock Heights
home was beautiful with colored lights
and blooming flowers which stood out
most effectively in the artificial illum-
nation. In the receiving line, among
others, were chairman of social COM
mittee of the "Y", John G. Graham
and Mrs. Graham; president of the
"Y," c c.. Lamond and Mrs. Lamond
Mr.. and Mrs. J. Robert Tomlin, Mr..
and Mrs. Carroll Pierce, and Secretary
and Mrs. Kirk Earle Wallace.
After cordial greetings on the part
of the members of the board of direc-
tors the party engaged in some games
on the lawn which created great deal
of amusement. These games were fol-
lowed by "Tunerville" comedy which
proved to be a happy selection for the
crowd it was to amuse. Miss Mary
Lee Spilman then danced on the lawn
in stunning classical costume one
of her interpretive dances and caused
the usual amount of favorable COM
ment on her grace and attractiveness.
The Ladies Auxiliary of the "Y"
then served ice cream and homemade
cakes, which. together with delicious
punch, served during the entire party,
made everybody happy. Popular music
closed the social hour and the third
social for Alexandria High Seniors
by the "Y" had passed into history.
