.UPSETS OCCUR
IN FIRST CANES

Well, well, well-here we are
humping into football upsets on the
very first playing Saturday Of the
season.
All will agree that Howard Payne
College had no business holding s.
M. U. to a 1918 tie. But who
would ever have dreamed that
Springfield was going to put 1t on
Brown?
The outcome of that game is
partly accounted for by noting
that neither Fogarty nor Mahood,
two of Browns best backs, were in
the game. Brown has fair team
for all that. Watch them.
What about West Virginia get
ting licked by Davis. Elkins? Yes,
Davis. .Elkins had surprise" team
last year, handing Navy a wallop
almost before the world of football
knew the former had a team. But,
somehow, most of us didn't take
that very seriously. Still. West
Virginia should have done so, for
DE. last year pinned lone of those
things" on the Mountaineers also.
The third big upset took place
in the far Southeastern Athens.
. Ga. The crazy thing that came
over the wires was Oglethorpe,
IA: Georgia, 7. Georgia was ex.
pected to send Yale reeling and
staggering back to New Haven
on the afternoon of October IL
next. Well. that may yet hap
pen.
Some Of the winners rolled up
bigger scores than expected-like
Syracuse. N. Y. u. Dartmouth, Col.
gate. Michigan State, Texas u,
University of Southern California
and Cornell, while several others
surprised by appearing weaker then
had been anticipated-viz., Hobart,
Vermont, Norwich, st. Lawrence,
Alma. Daiel Bakern U. C. l.. A.
and Clarkson.
Stanford's close defeat Of the
Olympic club shows clearly the
strength of the Palo Alto outfit
again, while the exceedingly close
shove that Penn had at the hands
of F. and A. indicates that a new
Richmond is in the field With
these exceptions other leading games
went about as might have been
anticipated.

CHICAGO. May 6-Wheat flu
lures opened at new low levels on
the crop here today. in sympathy
with the sharp break at Liverpool,
where prices fell as much as IL

There was no news over The week

have indicated they will follow cast

expected TO help matters, as space

CIRL-.15, Tells
KIDNAP STORY
Held Prisoner Since Satur-
day Night, Police informed.

Another story of kidnapping and
mistreatment, told by a pretty Is
year-old grade school girl today
after she had been missing since
Saturday night, invited police inVes-
tigation
The girl related she accepted the
offer of a young man TO take her
home from q dance at the Crystal
Palace. North Illinois street, Satur-
day. Instead, the youth drove her
into the country, and to farm
house where she accepted soft
drink. She knew nothing more
until Sunday morning, she said.
After being held prisoner all
day Sunday and Sunday night, she
slipped away, ran down the road
and was returned to the city by a
passing motorist this morning, she
said.

War on Mrs. Gam
Is ReOiUed in Snub
byAHCe LOngzVOrth
Sends Regrets After
Learning of Seating Ar
rangements at Dinner.

81 United Press
WASHINGTON, May 6.-Quietly
unofhcially, but nevertheless seri-
ouSly, the social war Centered around
the status OF Mrs. Edward Everett
Gam has broken afresh, according
/ to reports filtering from Washington
drawing rooms and clubs.
These reports, which involve Mrs
Alice Roosevelt Longworth in the
controversy. neither are confirmed
nor denied today, the only available
principal being Mrs. Gam, who re-
fused to comment
In short, the reported situation is
as follows
Mrs. Eugene Meyer Jr, whose
husband just retired from chair
manship OF the federal farm loan
board. planned an important din
uer party for Saturday night in
yitiug Vice President Curtis and
Mrs. Gam. Mr.. and Mrs LongWorth
ana several ambassadors and their
wives.
Following the recent decision
reached by the diplomatic corps as
to the social rank Of Mrs. Gam as
hostess OF the Vice President. they
we're to be recognized as ranking
guests.
Both Send Regrets
Mrs. LongTorth, who is a daugh-
ter Of Theodore Roosevelt and
whose husband is speaker of the
house of representatives. when in
formed Of tho proposed seating ar
engagements. sent her regrets. Mrs.
Gam in turn, when informed Of
Mrs. LongTorth's refusal to attend
the dinner, also sent belated re-
grets.
That. as far as can be learned,
is the substance of what occurred
Saturday night. Considerable
speculation IS to why it happened
and what will happen further, is
heard on every hand.
OF chief interest among such
speculation is the seriousness of the
situa tion-a situation having Mrs.
GAIN. d llOSLeSS lpl UIlC plCSlUl1lS
officer Of the senate on one side,
and the wife of the presiding officer
OF the house Of representatives on
the other.
Mrs. LongHorth's First Stand
Apparently, 1t is pointed out by
that section of society which will
discuss the subject. Mrs. Longworth,
q woman of unQuestioned social
standing and of strong individuality,
has taken advantage Of the first op-
portunity she has had to assert her
view of the question.
The whole story is given credence
b. reports which have flowed about
Washington ever since the question
arose, that the precedence obtained
by the diplomatic corps decision
never would be permitted Mrs. Gam
by some members of official society,
particularly by senatorial ladies.
However. of the Saturday night
episode, this much was confirmed,
neither Vice-President Curtis and
Mrs. Gam, nor the LongWorths were
entertained socially Saturday night.

Not only do the Roosevelts thus
