The answer to the above QueS-
ton lies in the fact that Haughton
and Columbia authorities are hav-
ing some difficulty in coming to
an agreement as to salary matters.
After receiving Knute Rockne's
final decision a week or SO ago
that he will remain at Notre Dame,
the Blue and White then turned to

ton, and proceeded to have him
dash his signature to contract.
Columbia did not expect to ex-
perience any trouble in signing the
famous ex-Harvard mentor, but
found to their utter disgust that
Haughton was not so easy to lure
into the fold.
It is said that in endeavoring
to sign HaughtOn Columbia Of
fered the famous coach not more
than $4,000. Before learning the
figure Haughton was quite willing
to take up the reins at the Morn
ingside Heights College, but since

for it.
Haughton, it seems. has in
formed Columbia that in view Of
the fact that Knute Rockne was
offered a figure around the $4,000
mark, the offer is not justifiable.
Columbia has repeatedly denied
that Rockne was offered as much
as $4,000, but the fact is, never
iheless, that the Notre Dame men,

After the first four-rounder was
announced there was quite hand.
After the next tour-rounder was

Philippine Trade
Be Limited to u. S. Ships
BY Universal Service.

The Shipping Board has recon.
mended to the President that the
Philippine Islands be included in
the coAstwise trade of the United
States and traffic be limited to
American bottoms, it was learned
yesterday.
The President is expected to de.
eide the question shortly after his
return from Florida.
Under coastwise trade law of thig
Government only American-owned
ships may go >from port to port
within the United States. The in
clusion OF the Philippines in this
category would bar an extensive
trade now being carried on by the
British and Japanese. and would
bring q stout protest from the Brit
ish government, or even retaliations
Of some sort.
While the experts Of the Ship
ping Board ruled that there Is no
legal objection to such action 1t was
intimated that the President would
consult with the State Depart
ment before making his decision
public.

OF Printed Notice
OF His Death .

Mark Twain's reported death,
which Mark himself declared
was exaggerated, had nothing
on Charles A. Jardin, of 1901
Pennsylvania avenue northwest,
whose widow" today is the
recipient Of flowers and con-
dolence from his host Of friends.
Some "wag' with a perverted
sense of humor yesterday paid
for the following death notice,
which was printed in an after
noon paper:
JARDIN, Charles A.-Died

beloved husband of Carrie
Jardin and father of
Charles Laynor and Alice
M. Notice of funeral

IN CAMP
GET TASTEOF
ARMY LIFE
High School Boys Group Is En-
joying Ten-Day Stay
at Simms.

on-commissioned officers of the
High School Cadet Corps today re-
turned to practice on the rifle
range, after their first practice
march and tactical work in the
field yesterday.
1t Is the plan of officers in
charge of the camp to have as
many Of the future commissioned
officer of the corps qualify for
ratings as sharpshooters and con-
sequently considerable stress is be-
ing laid on the rifle work. They
are shooting today over a 6OO-yard
range at regulation army targets.
Hiking will probably be resumed
tomorrow to afford opportunity for
a practical demonstration of the
general principles involved in
handling troops in the field.
Though the days have been hot,
a breeze has prevented actual suf-
fering. The swimming pool is
closed until late afternoon and as a
result the bath house is surrounded
by a clamoring group after the
periods of hiking or rifle work.
Chow time is a favorite period and
the way the lads sail into the
mounds of salmon salad, stewed
potatoes and seas of iced tea is a
spectacle.
Afternoons at camp are given
over to the boys for amusement.
Baseball and quoits are favorite
sports until the swimming pool Is
opened, when everybody takes to
the water.
Dinner is served at $50 o'clock
and Is followed by a long period
for amusement and study. At $50
taps Is sounded and the lights go
out. Following the army regula-
tions, the boys are turned out by
reveille call at $40 o'clock in the
morning.
Few OF the boys were bound Ivy
these restrictions during the first
and second nights, many of them
catching little more than a cat
nap or two during the night. AS
the daily routine began to grow and
muscles tired out, the embryo Of
ficers were more disposed to OBJ
serve the army regulation as to
sleeping hours.
