the ladder" have been made as
lax as possible so that no member
of the club need feel that the "lad-
der" is an imposition or an incon-
Venience to him.
A player will be permitted to
challenge anyone in his own class
and when the challenge is &C.
cepted the match must be played
within a week.
Player Can Advance
In order for a player to climb
to a higher class he must play at
least as many games as there are
players in his class, but only the
last three played with any one
player will be considered.
The players must turn in cards,
especially made for the ladder"
with their name and the result Of
the game on it. A separate card
must be turned in for each game
Flynn, by this simple arrange
ment, sees a city-wide revival of
chess which has of recent years
been left almost exclusively to the
top-notch players, RELOCATING the
timid novices and part-time play
ers to the shadows.
With a chance to tackle per.
formers who know just a bit more
than themselves, those who wish
to improve their game will be
given a grand opportunity by the
"ladder."
Convenient For Beginners
It will be particularly conven"
dent for beginners, who can pro-
gress from class to class, learning
more and more, as they climb up
ward.
Players who fail to participate
in a certain number of games
each month will be removed from
the list, unless they can prove ex-
tenuating circumstances such as
illness or vacations.
Flynn hasn't overlooked any.
thing in his regulations. He even
has inserted a rule governing the
sizes of the classes. If a class
falls below a certain number he
would tack it to the class above
it, and if it increases too much it
will be split up into two classes.

''It has been a long time since Mex
leo has seen such an impressive and
rhythmically executed mass presen-
tation. Although there was slight
tinge of the theatrical about the whole
affair-perhaps for the benefit of the
sound movie cameras which recorded
the ceremonies-it conveyed enough
sense of reality to give feeling of a
genuine ritual exercise, one of the
most sacred and one of the most in
tense and vital of all aboriginal cere-
monies.

complete ceremony been performed.
The Aztecs believed that the day also
meant the renewal Of life in the
world since the universe might come
to an end on one such day. Already,
they believed, four suns had been de-
stroyed and had been recreated.
"The musical accompaniment of
the spectacle was specially arranged
to utilize the indigenous instruments
of the ancient Mexicans, including
the clay flutes, the tall drums, and
the rattles. Actual melodies and

monies were Incorporated into the
music, which was prepared by Fran

PACEANTRY OF

Together with the general revival
of native art and music in Mexico
during the past few years has come
a realization in that republic of the

in an impressive celebration of the
famous "noche triste" under the very

Spanish invader is reported to have
wept, following his expulsion from
the Aztec metropolis by the array of
anahauc on June 80, 1920. And a few
weeks later, for the entertainment of
the thousands of delegates to the

BERLIN EXCLUDES
LITHUANIAN PACT
Ready for Non-Aggression
Treaties With All Other
Neighbors, She Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN. April 12.-Germany was
represented by high foreign office
official today as ready to sign pacts
Of non-aggre ession with all her neigh
bors except Lithuania.
When the Memel question is solved,
then we will be ready to make such an
agreement with Lithuania." said the
spokesman, who described his ex-
PLANTATION as 1.-The absolute official
policy of Adolf Hitler
His statement was given the Asso-
ciated Press soon after other official
sources declared the proposed Franco
Russian mutual assistance agreement
and Italy,s intention to keep 800, 900
men under arms had killed all hope
that the Stresa Conference would
make any important contribution to
European stability.
The foreign office spokesman also
said Germany is prepared to enter
into general arms convention ION
the basis Of full equality" He ex-
planned that while Germany regards
the proposed Eastern Locarno pact as
unnecessary, she would be willing to
consider the Eastern situation if no
mutual assistance provisions are in
sisted upon which might draw US into
war that is none of our business"
The German press, refraining from
all editorial comment on the Stresa
proceedings. limited itself to publica-
ton of reports from the several Ger
man correspondents sent specially to
observe the tri-power conversations.
1t was apparent the government de-
sires to weigh the results of the con-
ference carefully before giving the
press an indication of how it should
interpret the discussions.
