IRISH PULL OFF PRACTICAL JOKE ON U. PAClFlER
Date With lrregulars Turns Out to Be a
 Ruse
THE PASSWORD WAS 'SIKI'
Housemaid Who Gets High Sign Thinks
 Man Is Mad

DUBLIN, April 14.-Ireland just won't take Americas "peace en- voys" seriously.
 It's latest laugh is at Francis J. Lowe, the newest would-be peace maker, from across the Atlantic, and all Dublin has been laughing over the gentle piece of "leg pulling" that he has been treated to-
 Lowe, who had "threatened' peace by St. Patrick's Day, received a letter from De Valera stating that the writer regretted that he could not see his way clear to grant him an interview, but the same night following a telephone message, Lowe received a typewriter document, purporting to give him directions in getting in touch with the Irregular leader
 Follows Instructions
 Wearing a red tie and a bunch of shamrock in his buttonhole, Lowe sallied forth the next morning to keep his appointment. He carried stick in his left hand and from time to time, according to secret signal arranged, fingered his horn trimmed spectacles with the other hand.
 Arrived at his destination, which happened to be an apartment house in Merrion Square, he gave the pre- arranged staccato knock on the door, which was opened by startled housemaid In reply to her query as to his business, Lowe softly uttered the word "Siki" three times, but the only result he got from this myster- ious "password" was to have the door shut in his face by the house. maid, who ran screaming "below stairs" that there was a ''lunatic on the doorstep"
 Lowe Gets Suspicious
 By this time Lowe was beginning to feel little dubious as to the sue cess of his mission, and, on the ap- pearance of several more servants in the area, who gesticulated and pointed at him, he decided to get back to his hotel.
 At safe distance, unknown to him, followed the practical jokers, who had watched the proceedings from the shelter of a cab.
 Later in the day he received telephone message purporting to come from "Free State Headquar- ters" and stating that his attempt to see DeValera had been made known to the military, adding that he was lucky to escape being shot' as the one who had given him the instructions would be.
 Narrowly "Escapes"
 This information was duly re- tailed to his friends by Lowe, and he received many felicitations on his lucky escape and the wonderful "sa- gacity" he had shown. He was still rather dubious, however, about what the Irregulars would do when they found out that he had miscarried Instructions" The arrival of an "of- ficial" message allayed his fears, however, and he gravely told his listeners-all in the scret-of how he had escaped from almost certain death.
 It is reported that Lowe is still wondering what the suppressed laughter was all about.

TENNESSEE DOPED TO BEAT GEORGIA

Reports from Athens, Ga, that the Georgians will present strengthened and speedier attack has served to energize the home boys.
 Taking tip from Georgia's dem onstrasion of feebleness against attack in earlier games, the Orange and White squad has been given an overdose of drill in this department of play. The Volunteers hope to dazzle the visitors with the ball In continual flight and against this prospect the Bulldogs have worked overtime to perfect a defense.
 Coach Woodruff of the Georgians is bringing Teany Randall and John Fletcher along with him to pep up the work in the back field. but these two regulars may be the only ones of several on the sick list to get into action, 1t is reported.
 But while Georgia's lineup may still be dented as the result of it's battle with Yale, Tennessee also has few men on the bench due to hurts received in the Army conflict.
