War Pact Seen.
PARIS, Aug. 1.-While the con-
tents of the Franco British naval
pact is still being kept secret, COM
ments in official government circles
here reveal it is a strong bond be-
tween the British and French gov
ernments and a treaty of mutual
armament development.
The reports here indicate that
there has been no agreement on ac-
tual decrease of ornaments and
that what limitations are entered
into are calculated to help the de-
velopment of the two navies along
lines favorable to both powers. All
plans for construction of more
equipment must be communicated
to the allied governments five years
in advance.

POLITICS CAUSE
 BUCKEYE GROUP
 TO BAN CAPTAINS

COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 19-Ohio State universitys athletic teams have the unique experience of be- ing leaderless this year.
 Fraternity politics" blamed for many evils in the selection of the leaders for Buckeye teams, led the Ohio State athletic board to abol- ish the system of elective captains, in vogue in colleges and universf- ties throughout the country for years.
 "Cliques" and combines effect ed by members of athletic teams from certain fraternities, were said to control the election of most team captains.
 The athletic board announced that it hoped to obtain recognition for outstanding members of each team and felt that the old system tended to honor men who were not worthy of such positions.
 Coaches of the university's ath- let1c, teams are now endowed With power to appoint an honorary cap tain before each game or meet. The teams will be allowed to elect a captain at the end of their sport season. His chief duty will be to hold a football or baseball bat and sit in the center of the group when the teams picture is taken for the college annual.
 Five other colleges in Ohio, Case, Kenyon. Ohio Wesleyan, Hiram and Miami, have adopted the sys- a. tenn since the Ohio State athletic board announced its action. An other Ohio college, Marietta, alma mater of Vice President Dawes.
