Working On Secret
Weapons For
Uncle Sons Fighters

A recent letter from Glen Oneal,
Jr., of Washington, D. c., tells
something Of how government sci
entists work when developing secret
weapons for the navy at the naval
ordnance laboratory He saws the
men have themselves locked in a
sound proof building by guard
who is instructed to let them out at
a specified time.
No one is allowed to go in or out
of the building while the men are
at work and they cannot be reached
by telephone.
Mr.. Oneal says that it takes about
year of hard intensive work and
study to develop a new weapon, as
many blind alleys must be investi-
gated before the best processes are
discovered. He says that they have
developed several good secret
weapons in the past year and that
the world, especially the Axis, will
soon be hearing about them.
In this connection it is interest
ing to note that a recent news dis
patch announced that congress had
appropriated S30,000,000 to have Z
very mysterious secret weapon
manufactured for the navy. Par
of this money is to be used foI
teaching men to operate the weapon

Steps Being Taken To Organize
Lincoln County Historic Society
Meeting Is Called For
That Purpose For
Tuesday Night, Sept. 20.

The county commissioners have
provided display case in the Com
munity Room of the Court House
for the exhibit of articles of his
torical value. Nearly every home in
Lincoln County contains Or or
more objects that are associated
with the early history of the COM
munity or the state. They are Of
ten stored in the cellar or the attic
and while they have no immediate
use, owners hesitate to throw them
away on account of the reminls-
cences that are connected with form
err scenes and pioneer friends. Ear
ly patents from the government for
Lincoln County land, letters from
old timers handmade household ar
ticles, an old sidesaddle, a relic off
one of the Kootenai River steam
boats, these are only beginning of
long list of available material.
Do you recall the old fashioned
steelyards, hand coffee mills, brass
shotgun shells, pictures of Libby's
first Fourth of July? The list grows
indefinitely in every persons think
ing. Such articles could be donated
or loaned to responsible group
who would keep them on display
but well protected against loss. A
meeting of all persons interested in
such an organization is called for
next Tuesday evening, Sept. 20, at
the Community Room at 7.30. A
Lincoln County Historical Society
will doubtless be the result. Since
the matter concerns all Of this coun-
ty, interested persons from Eureka,
Troy and other sections are urged
to attend or to write the secretary
of the Lincoln County Historical
Society.

Maryland Is Figured
To Divide Honorsin
Twin Bill Saturday

Maryland will be the underdog at
track but the favorite in lacrosse
when it stages its first sports double
header Of the outdoor season at Col
lege Park Saturday v. M. I. and
Baltimore A. c. will be its respective
opponents, with the meet starting at
2 o'clock and the stick match at $3.50.
v. M. l. has one of its best track
and field squads in years, and al
ready holds decisions over Virginia
and William and Mary. Maryland,
on the other hand, could get no bet
ter than a 63-63 draw in its lone
start against Virginia Tech.
The Old Liners lacrosse team is
expecting its first close match of the
season after a pair of sided
victories over Harvard and Loyola of
Baltimore. Baltimore A. c., as a
matter of fact. holds the edge in its
three games with Maryland, winning
both in 1887 and 1899. The Terps'
lone victory came in 1896.
Coach Jack Faber's biggest prob
lem, it appears, is to mend some de-
fensive leaks. Baltimore's lineup
is filled with former college stars
who will take advantage of any
Maryland letdown quicker than
Loyola or Harvard did last week.

Gate Receipts 10 Tell
Fate Of Mississippi
Collegiate Sports
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
JACKSON, Miss, April 8.-The
fans of Mississippi's public colleges
held the key today to continuance
of intercollegiate athletic competi-
ton in the State.
A committee of the State College
Board decided yesterday against a
proposal to discontinue sports, sub
stituting a policy making all athletic
expenditures, including practically
the whole fund for coaching salaries,
depend entirely on gate receipts.
State Senator Means Johnston of
Greenwood, who proposed several
weeks ago the wartime abandonment
of athletic competition at the State
colleges, said the coaches had agreed
to the new arrangement with the
additional provisions that COM
pulsory athletic program for all
students be instituted, and that in
the event of curtailment because of
failure Of revenue, salaries would be
the first item cut.
"All forms of sport must be con-
tinued as physical training whether
they are profitable or not" he de-
clared. This will answer the criti-
cism that college students are al
lowed to grow soft
The action of the board COM
mittee is not final until ratified by
the full board, but this ratification
at a meeting late this month ap-
peared certain.
Observers believe that the two
largest institutions, the University
of Mississippi, and Mississippi State,
have a good chance to finance their
programs on a pay-as-you-gob basis.

Terps Hope Next Trip
Twill Be Better Than
One Just Finished
Virginia Licking Is Sixth
Straight; Now Prepare
For Lexington Visit

Whatever lies ahead Of Maryland's
baseball team on a weekend trip
to Lexington, Va, can't be any worse
than the record it brought back to
College Park this morning. Yep,
the Terps still are looking for their
first victory after six starts, yester-
days 1876 rout at the hands of Vir-
ginia at Charlottesville being their
worst.
Previously licked by Richmond,
North Carolina, Duke and Virginia,
Maryland was in the game for only
one inning yesterday. 1t scored a
run in its first turn at bat and
permitted the Cavaliers to do no
more than tie the score in their
half Of the first. But from then
on, there was no stopping Virginia
and no starting Maryland. Five
runs in the third inning and four
more in the fourth made it ILL
before the game was half over.
Neither Bob Smith, Maryland's
starting pitcher, nor Joe Hoopen-
garden, his relief, had anything
more than a prayer, and after they
had departed the premises Virginia
smacked Hartley Christ around for
a couple of innings.
Meanwhile, Alex Cave held Mary
land to three hits in eight innings,
yielding no other runs after the first.
Campbell hurled the last frame
for Virginia and the Terps scored
four futile runs on four walks and
three hits.
