SCHOLARS TO SEEK
WORLD WAR CAUSE
Two of American University Lii
brary Will Aid in Projected
Investigation.

Two members of the faculty of
American University have been in
trusted by the Senate with the task
of investigating the causes of the
World War, in accordance with the
resolution introduced by former SEN
ator Robert l.. Owen of Oklahoma,
just before the close of the last ses-
sion of Congress.
The Senate gave instructions that
the investigation be conducted by the
reference service of the Congres ssional
Library. with which DR.. Charles
Callen Tansill, professor of history at
the university, is connected, and DR.
Tansill has obtained the aid of one
of his associates, DR.. Ellery C. Sto-
we'll, in the faculty in carrying on
the work.
It has recently been reported that
q similar research would possibly be
undertaken by the new Walter Hines
Page School of International Rela-
tions, at Johns Hopkins University.
1t is probable, however, that the work
OF the American University men will
have been largely completed before
the other is put under way.
American University classes will re-
sumo Tuesday after short Easter
through Monday
Chancellor Lucius c. Clark an
nounces that one of the speakers at
the annual convocation to be held in
June will be Bishop W. F. Mcdowell
The complete program for the exer-
Cises will be announced shortly
In view of the fact that many stu
dents at the new College of Liberal
Arts, which will be opened at the
university grounds next Fall, are at
tracted by the many unique facilities
offered by the Nations Capital, it is
planned to have classes meet there
from Monday through Friday, leaving
Saturday free for visits to Congress
and public buildings.

industry given by a representative
from the Sunset Dye Company. Miss
Jinks. the lecturer, demonstrated the

A part of the discussion dealt with
the method of combining colors and
dyeing one color over another.
Several specimens of linoleum block
printing were recently arranged by
Mr.. Clark and sent to the convention
of the Vocational Education Associa-
tion of the Middle West, which was
held in Chicago. These linoIeum
cuts which are desigend in the Centra
art department and used extensively
in printing the Review, aroused much
interest and attention at the conven-
ton, and were highly commended.
A system has been adopted by the
Chess Club by which they are keeping
the honor places of the members or
a ladder chart. They have a chart
with a space for the name of every
member. When a member wishes he
may challenge another who is already
higher on the ladder of honor. II he
is winner of the game, he then
changes places with the defeated
member. This gives every boy the
same chance TO win the honor Of
heading the ladder.
The chapel last week at Central was
of a different type from those of the
past. 1t was entirely musical and the
entertainers were members of the
Boys and Girls Glee Clubs. The Clet
Club, which is made up of girls has
appeared before the student body be-
fore, but for the boys 1t was an en-
tirely new adventure. Nine enter
tanning numbers were given by both
groups.

CHICAGO, June 13.-Picked athletes
from more than SO universities and
colleges of the country today were out
to do their best in the annual track
and field championships of the Ma
tional Collegiate A. A. at Stagg Field
University of Chicago.
In trials yesterday afternoon some
20 tracllmen qualified for today's
finals.
Performances were not stellar, as
the runners had to compete with d
strong hot wind and a shower as we'll
as with each other, but the final
or good marks, both in the field and
on the cinder path
Judging from the entries and per
formances accompanying the nomina-

ordS, but whose achievements are not

A strong field was ready for the dis

sprlnters without great danger, al
though Whitman of Montana. who

AUTO MARKS LIKELY
IN ALTOONA Event

ALTOONA, Pa, June 13 R.-If
performance in the qualifying trials
is taken as an indication a new record
for the Altoona Speedway is likely
to be set in the 250-mile automobile
race this afternoon. Eighteen drivers
among them the most prominent
pilots in the country, are entered.
Those who have been watching the
qualifying tests say that Pete de
Paolo, winner of the 500-mile classic a
Indianapolis on Memorial day, stands
an excellent chance to win here. The
veteran Tommy Milton is also looked
upon by some as a potential victor.
De Paolo has shattered all records
for the Altoona track in the trials,
turning the mile and a quarter saucer
yesterday in "a seconds, or at the rate
of 1922 miles an hour.
Included among the other drivers
who have accomplished more than the
ordinary in the preliminaries are Leon
Duray, whose mark of 1908 miles was
bettered by De Paolo, and Benny Hill,
whose average was 1901 miles an
hour.
Predictions are that the largest
crowd in the history of the track will
be on hand for today's event, which
is scheduled to start at 2:30 o'clock,
Eastern standard time.

In Minneapolis recently an inter-
esting thing happened. a large out
door show was arranged by members
of a sportmen's organization. 1t was
undertaken as Il stag affair."
Women, it was inferred, were not 20
butt in.
But the women got together and
after some discussion issued an ediCL.
in which they declared:
There are just as many men
who talk too much, who dress in
appropriately, who don't want 10
help with the work and who get
tired and cold on hunting trips as
there are women.
A seasoned sportswoman is a
better man in the woods any day
than a veteran sportsman.
Women generally lead the men
on a long trek through the woods
and swamps
When a woman loses a big
fish nine times out of ten it's be
cause some man lost his head
And in most of these things Z
heartily agree. In fact, 1 think there's
are more men who dress inapDrO<
priately and talk too much than thers
are women, when it comes to fishing4
or camping. Say what you like men
are more vain about their appear-
ance in the field or on the streanr
than the women are. The gentler sex
seems TO more truly enter into ths
spirit of the vacation as sometime.

OF the exact sweep of the turned-uu
brim of their old hats.
4 don't care they say. how the
old hat looks-it's comfortable" But
they turn the brim very, very care
fully, just the same.
Women, on the other hand. wearS
sensible things. And it's the man who
does most of the talking-usually in
mighty effort to impress the female
auditor with two things: First. that
he is a mighty hunter or fisherman;.
second, that she knows nothing about
