has two players who would make for
ward positions on any team in the
country. Shipley is thus liberal il
his tribute to Dyer and Cosgrove.
II have never seen two more natura
forwards than Dyer and Cosgrove,
says Shipley, and they could make
good as forwards on any team in the
country. There is nothing they can
not do, and they are Just about 81
per cent of sGallaudet's team, and that
is not disparaging in the least the
capabilities of the other players. Both
are good shots, accurate passers, fast
and, above everything else, very in
telligent. Those two fellows look
mighty good to me"
And it might be mentioned that
| Shipley this morning also paid a
rather high compliment to Coach
Fred Rice's Catholic University team
as a result of its victory over Ford
| ham Monday night, said Shipley:
Everybody gives Fordham credit
for having brought here a great team,
and there is no doubt it did look good
at times with the fast passing in the
middle of the court. But any team
and look good with that kind of pass
ing. The good passing that actually
counts is that done to enable a team
to get one or two of it's men clear
under the basket once in a while, and
the Fordham passing never did that
against c. l.. Fred Rice had his men
under the basket blocking the passes,
intercepting the ball, or crowding the
receiver SO that, so far as | was able
to see, Fordham got only two clear
shots at the basket during the entire
game, and both those were missed.
''On the contrary, c. U. men worked
their way under the basket for clear
shots many times, and to my mind c.
Us passing actually was much better
than Fordham'S in that it was much
more productive of getting men in
clear scoring positions. i think Rice's
team beat Fordham because it played
better basket ball. Fordham might
have won had it battled as hard
throughout the game as ii did in the
last few minutes, but that does not de-
tract in the least from the fine game
put up by c. u
Fordham came back last night to
show the way to Georgetown'S five
in a 30-to-12 game in Ryan Gymna-
SUM. The Maroon, although going
into. action with a second-string com
bination, outplayed the Hilltoppers
from the start and triumphed handily.
At half time the score was 13 to in
favor of the visitors, and they did
just about as they pleased with the
locals in te second half.
Coach Teddy Mitchell has selected
all but one member of his Catholic
University boxing team that will OPP
pose the squad from Washington
and Lee at Brookland next Monday
night. Tim Riordan and Joe Riccardia
still are in the running for the 49,
pound class position. Jim Mcclure
will do the 125-pound fighting, while
Capt. Byrnes gets the 135-pound job.
Ed Tierney will battle in the 160-
pound division and Joe Tierney in
the heavyweight class, leaving the
175-pound task to John Malevich.

HARVARD TO REDUCE
Time IN CLASSROOM
New Policy Will Relieve Students
From Constant Supervision and
Give Teachers Opportunities.

BY the Associated Press.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March g.
Harvard has decided to cut substan-
TALLY the length Of time now required
Of students In the classroom.
Falling in line with British and
European universities. whose annual
period Of teaching and examination
is from two to three months shorter
than here, the corporation and board
OF overseers today approved a report
by the faculty OF arts and sciences
recommending the change.
The plan may be put into effect
in the academic year 1928.
Two important ends are sought UNI.
der the new arrangement-partial
freeing OF students from minute and
continuous supervision Of their studies,
and relief Of teachers from part of
their excessive burden Of teaching.
1t is hoped that the plan will mean
greater opportunity for maximum &C.
complishment on the part Of the stu.
dent and for writing and research by
the teachers.
The proposal approved today gives
any department the right to discon.
tinue lectures and other classroom
exercises for the PA weeks between
Christmas recess and the midyear ex-
animation period, and for a period
Of approximately az weeks. prior to
the final examination period in June
This does not apply TO elementary
courses. including all courses open
to freshmen.
Tutoring, also is to be suspended
during the two periods, except for
seniors in May before their general
examinations, but the students will be
given assignments of reading or
other work

FRENCH POLICE HUNT
MISSING NOBLEMAN
Warrant Held for Lord Terrington
in 100000 London
Bankruptcy.
By the Associated Press.

NICE, France, March 3.-Despite Il
report that Lord Terrington. wanted
in London In connection with bank
ruptcy proceedings involving about
$2,000.000, had started for England,
French police hunted for him all day
with a warrant for his arrest.
In the course Of the search, which
covered the entire French Riviera and
in which Scotland Yard men took a
part, the French police visited the ex-
elusive Embassy Club, having learned
that some one connected with the
management had been overheard to
say that he knew Lord Terrington's
address. AS the front Of the club is
in the territory Of Monte Carlo and
the back on French soil, the police
had to wait for two different search
warrants. The hunt. however, yielded
nothing and was continued fruitlessly
in other Riviera resorts.
\ London newspaper correspondents
said yesterday that they had dis.
covered that Lord Terrington was still
in Monte Carlo. staying at the villa
Of an English friend. They said that
they had found him by following the
tran of motor car used by Mrs.
Devere Humphrey. who was named by
Lady Terrington in her divorce pro-
ceedings last year. Dispatches from
Monte Carlo said that no trace could
be found of Lord Terrington.

JAZZ AGE" UPHELD
BYCOLLEGE DEAN
DR.. H. E. Hawkes. of Column
bia Opposes Return to
Academic SecIusion.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 3.-Colleses
today must learn to understand the
jazz age" before they can provide
useful education to the present
generation. DIR. Herbert E. Hawkes.,
dean of Columbia College. says in an
Interview in the New York Evening
Post today.
Unlike Dean Gauss of Princeton,
who was quoted recently as saying
the salvation of the modern college
lay In return to academic seclu-
sion," Dean Hawkes. contends that
with the campus of Columbia fronting
on Broadway there can be no seclIl-
sion for his institution, and that seclu-
sion is not necessary.
An appeal to a students ambition
is better thing than seclusion from
temptation. A man has got to grow
up. He may as well grow up In
college," said DR.. Hawkes..
Criticizes Narrow Aims.
Some colleges, he declared, have
lost a definite aim. There Is no
motivation for good work. The aim
Is merely to turn out a type of man.
They maintain a narrow, traditional
appeal.
1.-THE day Is past when a teacher
can read the same notes to a docile
class year after year. II the teacher
does not have life enough to progress
or recognize that his subject Is alive
and developing, his students will GER
tainly take the initiative In malins
progress along some other and more
vital course"
Defends Up-tO-Date Interests.
The fact that students interests
are up-to-date, be they jazz or philoso-
ply. is mental independence rather
than "fiabbiness" in the opinion of
Dean Hawkes..
1.-THE colleges are all doing their
best to provide useful education for
our youth" he stated. But until
they better know the youth whom
they are trying to serve. their efforts
must often be poorly directed"

DICKINSON ASSA|LS
FARM BILLS VETO
Declares Political Expediency
Guided PreSident-Cites
Possible Tariff Fight.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
The statement that President Cool
idge's veto Of the McNary- Haugen
farm relief bill was INSPIRED by a
politicians calculations OF political adj
vantage" was made today by Repre-
sentative Dickinson, Republican, OF
Iowa, in an extension of remarks in
the Congressional Record which, he
said, was designed as the reply Of or
gained agriculture to the veto mes
sage.
Recognized as one Of the farm bloc
leaders in Congress. the Iowa member
incorporated in his remarks state
nent signed by George n. Peek,
chairman of the executive committee
Of % Of the North Central States
Agriculture Conference.
"The veto was inspired not by a
atatesman's conception of principles
OF economics and government" Dick
inson said, ''hut by q politicians CAL
culations Of political advantage"
BIames Misuse OF Power.
And be it remembered" he added,
that the misuse Of political power is
responsible for many of the unjust
burdens of the farmers, and that 1t is
through the misuse of political power
that selfish industrial interests are
now seeking to further industriaiize
the anton at the expense of agricul-
ture."
He declared that newspaper COM
nlent" had referred to the political
rather than economic effect of the
veto. and that, in his opinion, should
any person hold the Office of President
for longer than eight years 1t would
give "his group of friends and the
particular interests that appeal to
him a distinct advantage"
He predicted that the third-term
issue would become one of the ''pri-
mary influences" in the 1928 presi-
dental campaign.
Mr.. Peek's statement, some 5000
words in length, consisted of an anal
ysis OF what he said were the -four
teen points" OF the veto message.
Sanctions Industrial Protection.
The veto message is part of the
program that Is industrializing Amer.
lea at the expense of agriculture, 4"
ne said. Repeatedly 1t pictures evil
effects following better prices for the
Nations cash crop. 1t expresses the
viewpoint Of laissez faire for agricul.
lure while sanctioning protection for
industry.
After reading the message with it's
almost infinite fault-fnding over de.
tails. the thought occurs that the
fundamental, unexpressed objection
may be that voiced by Andrew Mel.
Jon a year ago, when he asked for
The rejection of the surplus control
bin on the ground that ii would tend

material necessary to industry in the
United States

that friends of the McNary. Haugen
bin had supported it with the hope
of lis inuring to the benefit or injury
OF possible presidential candidates,
said the Republican party had pledged
