Estelle Lawson Page, 29-year-old
Greensboro, N. c., matron and the

Her victory Saturday over red
haired Patty Berg of Minneapolis by
a 7-and-6 margin was not only a
triumph over the medalist jinx but
also one for perseverance and patience.
Mrs. Page, powerfully-built shot
maker who is amazingly accurate with
long irons and woods, took the medal
this year and last, but never had ad-
vanced further than the third round.

PITT AND CORNELL

Panther-Ram Contest This

"A YEW YORK, October l1.-Slowly
M the foot ball cream is rising to
" the top so that today, after the
a first three weeks of the season.
. more definite picture of sectional
championship possibilities is taking
form-subject to change without
notice, let it be added hastily.
On the basis of results to date, here's
where the strength seems to lie:
East-Pitt and Cornell have demon
strated their right to a place in the
front ranks with Army, Navy, Yale,
Boston College, Harvard and Holy
Cross up there or thereabouts. Judg-
ment must be withheld on Fordham.
Dartmouth and Syracuse until they
begin picking on teams their own size.
Middle West-Nebraska, Wisconsin
and Northwestern must be given the
place Of honor, at least for the time
being. Notre Dame, Ohio State,
Minnesota and Purdue may come back
from defeat or tie to gain CHAMPION
ship recognition.
South-Duke of the Southern Con-
ference and Alabama, Louisiana State.
Vanderbilt. Tennessee. Georgia and
Georgia Tech of the Southeastern are
the current leaders.
Far West-California and Santa
Clara stand alone.
Southwest-Texas A. and M. and
Baylor look most formidable
Rocky Mountain-Colorado is the
one to watch. Some of these undoubt-
edly will fall by the wayside during
this weeks program, by far the best
30 far offered.

Blockade of Spain to
Insulate Civil War

60 FAR as the international non.
~ intervention committee can do
it, the war in Spain is now insulated.
Representatives of 26 European ma
tions agreed that no more volun-
teers for either side in the civil
conflict should be permitted TO en-
ter the Iberian peninsula, effective
at midnight February 20; and they
laid plans for a complete blockade
by land and sea that would prevent
the importation of any more men
or war munitions. Only Portugal
dissented, objecting to establish
ment of frontier guards on her ter
ritory; Great Britain, France, Ger
many, Italy and Russia ignored the
Portuguese protests and went ahead
with the blockade plans, which are
! to be put into effect by March 6.
The decisions were reached after
France delivered a virtual ultima
tum to her fellow committee mem
bers to end their pickering and
warned Italy she would not stand
for "open invasion of Spain" The
French were quick to place guards
at all strategic points along the
Franco-Spanish frontier.
The international naval patrols
presumably will not have authority
to stop vessels suspected of carry
ing arms and men to Spain, but
will report ship movements to the
committee for action and will place
observers on the vessels to check
cargoes.
Supposing this blockade to be sue
cessful, it may we'll be that the
Spanish civil war will die of inani-
ton. Then may be brought about
that which the international COM
mittee seeks-international media
ton between the insurgents and the
loyaliSt government.
For the present both sides are re-
neWing their efforts for decisive vic
tory. The fascists, still driving hard
at the life line" that connects Ma
drid and Valencia, also are attack
ing the capital itself again. Their
airplanes made two night bombing
assaults on the city and its envi-
rons, killing a number of persons;
and their artillery constantly shells
the highways to Valencia.
The loyalist government, at its
temporary seat in Valencia, took
new mandate of absolute power
from all Popular Front parties
and mobilized all available man
power to oppose the insurgent
forces. All military classes of the
last five years were drafted for i'm
mediate war service.

Marking Offers Peace to
Chinese Communists

n FFERING to make peace with
" the Chinese communists
against whom it has waged war for
ten years, the National government
at Nanking announced the terms on
which those reds would be allowed
participation in national affairs. The
Kuomintang's demands are: Aboli-
tion of the communist army and its
incorporation in the National gov
ernment forces; dissolution of the
Chinese communist state and its
unifcation with the central govern
ment; cessation of red propaganda
opposed to Kuomintang principles,
and stoppage Of the class struggle
which divides society into antagonis-
tic classes and invites mutual de-
Struction.
That the Marking government is
steadily growing stronger is made
evident in the more conciliatory at
titude adopted lately by Japan. A
spokesman for Hayashi's new cab
met in Toxic indicated Japan was
willing to abate its demands for
simultaneous settlement of all pend
r1g Sino-Japanese incidents a n d
negotiate separate settlements for
each.

construction program, Admiral Will
liam D. Leahy, chief of naval opera
tions of the American navy, served
notice that any foreign nations ex-
banding their navies beyond the
standards of recent treaties might
expect that the United States would
match their construction. He said
it was his understanding that this
nation was definitely committed to
the maintenance of navy second
to none" To maintain that princi-
pie, he declared, it would become
necessary for the United States to
build new ships if other powers did.
The present United States build
ing program calls for start OF con-
struction this year on two new cap
ital ships. Great Britain already
has laid the keels of two new craft
and the program announced in Lon
don calls for the start, after April l,
of construction of third new ves-
sci. When Britain lays a third keel,
then this government is likely to
start similar construction.

their minds. Not long before, Mr..
Ashurst and several other senators
were called to the White House to
discuss the strategy of the fight the
administration faces. The Arizona
senator and Majority Leader Joe
Robinson of Arkansas, who was
among the conferees, only recently
were vociferous in declaring con-
stitutional amendment was the only
proper way to accomplish the Pres
ident's purpose. But now they are
obediently supporting the admin
istration measure.
Senators Frazier of North Dakota,
Bone of Washington and Nye OF
North Dakota also were summoned
to the White House, but what they
heard there did not change their
stand against the Presidents plan.
Mr.. Nye, indeed, soon after de-
livered a radio address against it.
He did not especially defend the
Supreme court, but said he thought
there are better ways of attaining
the objective in conformity to the
Constitution than the way of packing
the court proposed by Mr.. Roose-
welt. He could not see wherein an
81 decision is any more desirable
than a As decision, which has
served to agitate us against the
alleged course of permitting the Su-
preme court to declare acts of con-
gress unconstitutional.
However foreign to the Presi-
dent the thought Of dictatorship
may be, in connection with his pres
ent request it is good warning to
look out-not for him necessarily,
but for those who would in other
days have opportunity to use the
power which he would have us now
extend"
Ex-President Herbert Hoover in
an address before the Union League
club of Chicago uttered solemn
warning that the Presidents plan
was a serious threat against the
ultimate safeguard of liberty, and
condemned any such "quick and
revolutionary change in the Con-
stitution."
At this writing 80 senators have
declared publicly against the bill;
80 are on record for it. and "a have
not committed themselves. The ad-
ministration leaders expected to
pick up at least IL from the non-
committal group, and claimed
more.
