"Gov. Smith is gaining That Is the report that comes from every section of the Northern States. But that does not mean that he will certainly be elected.

'The Awakening of a Great Hope"
lEngineering and Mining Journall

Engineering and Mining Journal)
 Seated in the Sale de lHorloge of the Quai d'Orsay in Paris, August 27, 1928, the rep resentatives of fifteen world powers with solemn dignity affixed their signatures to covenant resting solely on moral and spiritual concepts, designed to outlaw forever this our earth. The document is world declaration not of inde- pendence but of dependence-of mutual respons- bity for the preservation of that fruit of the ages which men call civilization. And the gather ing of plenipotentaries from nations of widely different aspratons and ideals, many of which to charter of peace may in future ages serve to mark the beginning of epoch in the his tory of mankind of such hopeful and tremendous import that only the perspective of years may make possible discernment and elevation of It's nobility and purpose. That Dr. Gustav Strese- mann, the German Foreign Minister, the first to sign the covenant and Dr. Eduard Benes, Czechosoyakias delegate, the last, lends to the momentous climax of the genius and labors of Aristide Brand and Frank B. Kellogg romantic and historic significance that evokes spiritual exaltaton and emotions of admiration and grati- tude to all who have made possible this great Magma Charta of humanity.
 Fifteen nations of the earth have written in fewer than hundred words a Com mandment; and the spiritual vision of Wood row Wilson is made living thing. Upon the people of these nations now devoves the great and noble work of nfusing the breath of life into the new gospel of peace. Briand's pregnant phrase describing the outcome of their labors as "the awakening of great hope" should inspire the of with will to make the hope reality.

MARYLAND REGULARS

Maryland will send all It's regulars
into the lacrosse tilt with Johns Hopkins
in the Baltimore Stadium tomorrow,
which will decide which of these teams
will represent Uncle Sam in the Olympic
games at Amsterdam. Play will start
at $3.50 o'clock.
Maryland has lost none of the fight
and aggressiveness that told in the clash
with the battling Navy team last Sat-
urday and fully expects to let Hopkins,
the 5-to-3 favorite, quickly learn that
it will have to battle for all it gets.
Maryland will concede nothing to
Hopkins, except experience. as the teams
are well matched in weight and speed.
But when it comes to experience in the
Indian pastime, the Blue Jay squad has
it all over Maryland, as the Hopkins
twelve that will take the field, counting
high school and college play. has had
considerably more than twice the ex-
perience in the game as the Old Liners.
Many Westinghouse, many of whom
we're made devotees of the game by the
twin bill played here last Saturday, will
go to Baltimore for the contest.
Those who do not make the trip may
tune In on Station VIDAL, which viii
start broadcasting half hour before
the start of the contest and continue
until the final whistle blows.
Maryland will take the field as fol-
