day that this, the nineteenth state.

the states primitive life, of the two
historic Indian tribes, the Chippewa
(Ojibiway) and Sioux, many of whose
descendants are citizens of the state
today; her early explorers and settlers,
Du Luth RadiSsOD, and GrOseilliers;
the period of settlement from 1S4O to
the present; Minnesota as a territory
and state, and it's transportation and
industries.
Minnesota has no state song but a
composition more than ten years old
and set to the tune of TRAMP, tramp,

used and its college song, Hail Min
nesOta," in addition to the more diff

ply and Trailm akers, Blegen; Mime
sofa, Carney; Seven Men OF Iron.
DeKruif: Stories of Minnesota and
Heros of the Northwest, Parsons;
Story of the North Star State, Willard;
legislative manuals and other refe-
rences.
A Song.
That all may sing and possess the
words to the generally used Mime
sofa State Song by Ellsworth, the
words are given as follows:
(Air: Tramp, tramp)
From our hearts with sweet content,
under skies in beauty bent,
Of our good North Star, we're singing
glad and free.
And our music swells along on the
breezes pure and strong,
Flowing from the hills and lakes and
inland seas.
Chorus:
Hail, all hail to Minnesota!
Star of patriots proud and free.
With thy wealth of wheat and pine.
Cities great and iron mine,
Limpid lakes and rivers running
to the seas.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

A super-patriotic Interpretation of
certain words in WashingtOn's fare
well address concerning the danger
of becoming enmeshed in foreign en-
tanglements has nearly always car
ried with it a warning against Amer
lean participation in attempts to set
tie world problems. At time when
life was far less complicated than it is
now, such a message carried weight.
Things have, however, changed very
much national and international
affairs have become far more COM
pleX than even a man as farSighted
as Washington could have dreamed,
stick to their antiquated principle.
chiefly, because they fail to realize
that profound changes have come
over the world.
But again we hear the hue and cry
against foreign entanglements" be-
cause the president of the United
States is dealing with other nations
about economic questions, about dis
armament and other problems of gen.
eral interest to all nations rather
than of special Importance to any
single country
World Conference.
AS result of the first conversa-
tions of the group with Mr.. Roosevelt
has initiated with responsible foreign
statesmen it is now considered pretty
certain that the long expected eco
nomic world conference will take
place in London early this summer
Some fifteen hundred representatives
of sixty nations are expected to jour-
ney thither to make supreme effort
to stay the crisis which has paralyzed
the world.
Last year the American view was
that the London conference ought to
take place in such a way that it did
not touch upon some of the problems
peculiarly vital to the United States,
such as war debts, disarmament, high
tariffs, etc.
Europe realized then that the con-
ference would be futile without di
rect American participation. and it
now is being understood in this
country, too. An old American slo-
gan, United we stand, divided we
fall" may very aptly be applied to
the international situation today-and
the Washington administration sees
this very clearly, so it not only has
abandoned former governments OBJ
structionist policy, but actually has
placed itself in the forefront of the
massed movement to effect improve
ment through conference.

IF Fred Walker makes good as a reg
i ular with the world champion New

working alongside his old pal of the
Alabama Industrial League days, Ben
Chapman.
Chapman and Walker starred to-
gether in the Industrial. but Walker was
delayed In his climb to the top by a
desire to become a pitcher like his
father, Dixie Walker, who was with
Washington years ago.
At his fathers advice, Walker gave
UP pitching and tried the infield. He
then took up outfielding, made good In
big way with Newark Of the nterna-
tional League last year and was called
in by the Yanks. He may. in another
season or two, take over Babe Ruth's
right field patrol.
Like Chapman. he is very fast on the
base lines. He batted $50 against In

YALE AND PRINCETON
TIE FOR STAR BERTHS
Each Places Two, Columbia One
on Eastern Intercollegiate
Mythical Quint.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,


NEW YORK, March 13.-Yale and
= y Princeton gain two berths each
and Columbia one on the Eastern
intercollegiate Basket Ball Leagues all
star team. selected by the six coaches
for the Associated Press today.
Picked by this method for the ninth
successive year, the 1888 all-star array
includes Ken Fairman Of Princeton
and Earl Nikkel of Yale at the for
ward positions, Bob OConnell of Yale
at center and Johnny Grebauskas of
Princeton and Len Hartman of Colum-
bia at the guard posts.
Fairman was the only unanimous
choice. He received six first-choice bal
lots, good for the maximum of 12 points.
Nikkel, Grebauskas and O'Connell also
overshadowed all opposition, but Hart
man was given close battle by Ken
Hashagen of Penn and George Stangle
of Dartmouth.
The Columbia star received four points
for guard and two for forward, al
though he played most of the season
at the former position His aggregate
Of six points earned him the final place
on the first team bv a margin of one
vote over Hashagen and two over
Stangle
Stangle and Hashagen thus drop back
to the second team with Lank Seibert
OF Princeton, the leagues individual
scoring champion, and Al Bonniwell of
Dartmouth at forward and Karl Larsen
OF Princeton at center.

outer distances, playing q perfectly
straightforward shot, making no at
Tempt to cut across the ball. Indeed,
I often prefer to bring the shot In
rom right to left, with q slight draw,
relying upon the loft of the club and
the downward direction of the. blow
to produce all the backspin required.
A s the distance becomes less, it be-
"A comes increasingly difficult to ap-
ply sufficient stopping spin. This
fact demands progressive changes to
more lofted clubs, until the niblic Is
reached. From this point in, so long as
the necessity for pitching remains, 1t
becomes matter of modifying the
stroke to meet the requirements Of the
shot which the club alone cannot care
Tor. It is then that I have recourse
to sort Of cut-shot, played with the
ball bit farther forward, the face OF
the club laid back, and a stroke cross
ing slightly from the outside in.
The stroke, even for the shortest dis
tanceS, should never be attempted with
the wrists and hands alone, or even
with the arms in conjunction with these
two. Proportionate to the length Of the
shot, the turning Of the body and shoul-
ders, and the use of the legs should be
the same as in any other swing. In
deed. it Is my feeling. that 1t is, If
anything, more important here than
elsewhere to swing the club head. The
swing should be leisurely, Of ample
length, and with . perceptible flick at
the bottom.

Golf Analysed
-BY JOE GLASS

THE more you study the grip the
i more you see how very important
it Is. Just grabbing hold of the
shaft and betting away at the ball won't
do.
Get a finger grip, as you should
do, an you still haven't solved all
of the problem.
The stars generally agree On left
hand position. It must be on top Of
the shaft, with three knuckles showing
But the stars don't all have the right
hand position standardized.
This hand can't be on top Of the
shaft, like the left. But some stars
don't like to get 1t far under the shaft.
Denny Shute Is one of them. He
wants his right hanr just little bit
on top. His reason is that this posi-
tion prevents him from over-swinging
This leads to more accurancy and he
is willing to sacrifice little distance
in its behalf. As Shute is one Of the
most consistent low scorers in golf, his
plan would seem to be good.
Hands differ, however. Shute's hands
are long and rather slender. What
would be good plan for him may not
serve another so well. Practice reveals
the truth about these matters.
The stars all do one thing. They
separate the first and second fingers on
the shaft little. This helps control
Of the club.
