Kansas Deans Take Slap at Girls
 Basketball

TOPEKA, Kan:, Jan. 4-Basket- ball, as sport among girl high school students in Kansas, will soon be taboo, providing the plans of the men, are carried out.
 The association adopted the follow ing resolution at it's annual conven- tion held here recently:
 Resolved, That whereas inter- scholastic basketball injures the girl student both morally and physically because of the constant chasing around to different schools in dif- ferent parts of the country to partici- pate in games, the Kansas Associa- tion of Deans of Women does not approve of interscholastic basketball for girls, and in the future the vari- ous deans of women at different schools and universities throughout Kansas will fight all efforts of ath- letic organizations to hold girls bas- ketball tournaments in any section of the state.
 Kansas colleges did away with girls basketball tournaments two years ago." Dean Susan B. Guild, of Washburn College, Topeka, declared, because we felt that it harbored no good for the girls. Now we want to see the high schools do the same thing we have done in the colleges"
 Women from eighteen different Kansas colleges and universities at tended the convention,

Head of Sinclair Oil Company Says Petroleum
 Prices Will Climb Steadily Higher-American
 Oil Companies Must Work Together to Obtain Firmer Hold in Foreign Fields .>
EIGHT PAGES

IICAGO, Jan. 4.-There is plenty America must be willing to "pay the price" of preparedness unless she wants to lose her position of pe- troleum supremacy, declared H. F. Sinclair, chairman of the board of the Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corpora tion, at the annual dinner of the American Petroleum Institute held here.
 Petroleum prices in 1921 on an average have been too low" Sinclair said. "In my opinion they will aver age much higher in 1922 and may average higher than ever before in the history of petroleum. I am con- -rfident that petroleum prices must gradually work higher. Naturally, there will be periods of depression, but in the long run petroleum will command prices which more nearly reflect it's service value. The day is COuluS WHOl tallcIl IlSluS :" III llOI be the largest producers and when American refiners who have not forti- fled themselves in foreign fields will be forced to take minor place ill the refining industry of the world.
 "Unless America is willing now to pay the price' of preparedness she will lose her position of petroleum supremacy, and the nationals of other countries will force her to pay through the nose.
 "In order to keep pace with the de- mand we have drilled in the last eleven years no less than a quarter million wells. This includes almost seventy thousand ,'gassers' and dry holes.
 "In the last six years we have been drilling an average of about 26,- GOO new wells each year, of which

LEADS CAMPAIGN FOR
 AMERICAN MUSICIANS

Chicago, June 2.-The recipient of three European decorations which were bestowed in recognition of War service to European countries, and the first American shareholder in the British National Opera Com pany, Ltd. Mrs. Archibald (Eleanor Everest) Freer of Chicago, is leading a campaign to protect American mu- sic and musicians from what she re- gerds as ominous European competi- tfon. The campaign is being waged, she explains with the intention of excluding nothing good. but of in cluding the musical art of this country"
 Active during the World War in work for the National defence, Mrs. Freer now asserts that the great est legacy We can leave-next to the country-the music of our land still must be saved"
 Declaring that 'it has been defin- itely proven that mo country has greater or better art that our own,' she contends that American mus1- clans and composers. like opera in chance in their own country by a discrimination for things foreign that threatens to make the United States ca nation of art-borrowers'' opera is heard hears opera in it's vernacular.
 Mrs. F'reer has been made na- tional chairman of two affiliated or
 
 guage Foundation and the David Bispham Memorial Fund, The for mer organization has launched a mill lion dollar campaign to establish ''an American opera house where native talent can be heard" This, Mrs. Freer maintains, 'is the only hope of the American composer, nbrettist singer, stage manager and orchestral player. if this most popular form of music-opera-is to become na- tional"
 Mrs. Freer is herself composer Of note. During war she organized the Lake Shore Drive Surgical Dressings Unit the War Relief Club and the Paris Chicago Hospital Fund. She was awarded the Metallic de la Refine Elizabeth by the Belgian government the Metallic de, Ia Reconnaissance by the French government, and the Medal of the French Red Cross.
 Archibal F'reer- her husband, like wise was decorated for war work The Belgian Cross of the Legion of Honor. which is also referred to as the Medal of Leopold of Belgian. made Knight of the Order of Leo pold. Mir. Freer gave one million francs to France for war purposes.
 After a careful study of condi- world the last twenty years" Mrs. F'reer said in telling of the Opera in Our Language Foundation, 'it has been definitely proven that no coun- try has greater or better art than our own. But deprived of the prestige that we grant anything with a for eign label. whether because of apathy, ignorance, indifference or policy the American composer and artist have no place in their own sun.
 'sFor thirty years in New York and twelve years in Chicago, millions Of American dollars have gone into two opera houses where our language, our artists. our composers practical have been banned. To get a hearing we are forced to leave the country. denationalize ourselves in art, and in returning render Cor denounce) our mother tongue and our art.
 Until we hear foreign operas in our own language. we shall NOT want to hear our own operas We have the composers. we have the artistS.''

WORST CASUALTIES OF WAR BEGIN TO
 APPEAR

Indianapolis, Ind. June 2-The worst casualties suffered by American just beginning to show themselves. By contrast troops wounded on the oattlefeldS are lucky compared with the greatly increased casualties of official of the American Legion's na- tional headquarters here, in charge or ex-soldier claims against the gov ernment.
 soldier suicides a day, MT Harris de- clares following a study of reports These men. MT. Harris finds, almost without exception were in the bat the Legion official contends, were discharged by army doctors as nor nal. Since the war, however. these men, struggling for a living, have undergone mental anguish that their war-racked nerves coud not with stand.
 There are two ways in which the Legion hopes to minister to these mental cases and to prevent their in- crease, MT Harris points out. The Langly bill. now law, provides $17,- 100000, for the construction of new hospitals. The larger portion of this money is to be spent in creating facilities for treating the neuropsy- chiatrics, mental patients. The Le- zion Is also preparing to petition Con- gress to Hberalize the present Sweet bill. This bill now makes it impos- sible for ex-soIdier to obtain government treatment for war 1n- juries which show up more than two years after discharge from service The Legion contends that it might easily be five years after discharge before injurious physical and mental effects of his service woud appear.
 MT. Harris further charges that the United States Veterans BSreau, in charge of the treatment and re- mobilization of the World Wars dis abled, is in error concerning the gravity of the neuro-psychiatrfc suf- ferers. A recent Veterans Bureau report shows that the bureaus total capacity for treatmen of neuro-psy- chfaric cases is 6,099 beds. MT. liar ris says he has reports from Legion Laison representative in each of the that in four of the 4 districts alone there are 24.506 mental cases on record. These four districts include West Virginia, District of Colubia Virginia, Tennessee. North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, Florida, Georgia. Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri. Washington. Oregon, and Idaho. Of the number 2,119 are be- ing treated in Government hospitals and 996 in contract institutions.
 The Veterans Bureau reports but 4,62S service men in the entire for mental disorder in government institutions.
 The Legion is asking the co-opera- tion of the public in it's effort prop erly to protect post-beIlum she'll shock cases MT. Harris says that to report an exsoldier who shows signs of mental disorder, and to in- duce him to submit to an eXamina- ton and treatment.

First Congregational Church Of Ben
nington to Celebrate in December.

Early in December the First Congre-
gational church in Bennington town
ship, which has the double distinction
Of being the first church built in the
state Of Vermont and the reputation
Of being the most beautiful example
lof colonial church architecture in
northern New England, will celebrate
it's l06th anniversary.
The Bennington church is famous all
over the country. 1t is located on the
heights at the western side of the
township overlooking Bennington viii
lage.
The First church was organized in
1862, during the first week Of Decem-
Der. This was before the state Of
Vermont had become separate state,
and while it was part Of New Hamp-
shire.
In connection with its construction,
there is an interesting legend. In the
days when the Bennington folk decided
that they must have a church there
was but one book on church architec-
tlire in the whole then existing state
district, and this was owned by an
architect in Bennington. The local
folk studied the book and devised the
church after suggestions contained in
ii.
After the church was built it be-
came famous throughout the district
and soon other townships wanted to
build and sent to Bennington to bor
row the book. Bennington informed
them they would have to come and do
their studies in architecture on the
spot as the book would be kept in
the town.
From village and hamlet came COM
mittees of builders, carpenters, stone
workers and window and interior fin
ishers. They were loaned the book
and met in the church to read and d.
gest it. After their studies were done |
with, the committee used to assemble |
and discuss the plans for their own
church, devising notifications of the
design used in Bennington, in order TO
ret original results,
Thus the church became the model /
for all vermont's church buildings.
Rev. Vincent Raw Booth is the pres
mt pastor of the church.
