tween tn teams on Northwestern

when the Sailors chalked up q
27-0 victory. It was a long pass
from Paddy Driscoll to George
Halas that gave the Gobs a 10
lead over comparatively light
Purdue. The broken-field run
ming of Jimmy Councilman play
ed q great part in the Boiler
makers downfall.
Driscoll, now drilling the
backs Of the professional Chica-

years. Halas, owner-coach Of

Wooden Nickels
May No Longer
Serve as Joke

i WASHINGTON, Nov. II -
R - Being penny-wise 10 .
thrifty policy, the Treasury con-
coded today-but there's no per-
centage in boarding the coppers
II you wind up having to take
wooden nickels for them!
Acute shortages In war-vital
metals-chiefly copper may
soon force the Treasury to ask
Congress to pass laws permit
ting changes in specification
and contents of small coins.
To meet the emergency, the u.
S. Mint Is experimenting with
several substitutes, including
other metals, various woods,
plastics and glass. The big trou-
BILE thus far has been getting the
mechanical equipment to make
the coins.
Already all the nickel AN
other war metal has been re-
moved from the five cent piece,
and its copper content cut from
IS to Sc per cent. This was done
by special act of Congress. In
addition, the Treas.s'y recently
cut production of pennies by SO
per cent.
But increased spe n d In E
promptly hiked demand for all
the small coins and now serious
ly hampers the planned conser-
walton program, Secretary Nor
genthau announced
AS a result, the Treasury now
Is looking toward clearing the
way for the substitute plan by
seeking proper Congressional
action.

He decided not only to fight

Saxon nations, but also against

his own country.
FRENCH NOT ARGET


Besides that, I have to inform
you on this occasion, Marshal,
that the action of the German
troops Is not directed against
you, the chief of state and ven
cradle commander of the brave
French soldiers during the last
war, nor against the French gov
eminent, nor against any
Frenchmen who are DESTROYS of
peace and who above all fear
that their country would become
a theater of war.
On this understanding I
would like at the same time to
give you the assurance that the
entry of Allied German and
Italian) troops into France IS
not directed against the French
forces and that I keep hope of
defending, shoulder to shoulder
with them, Europe as well as
the African possessions belong
ing to France against the coal-
ton of the Anglo-Saxon powers.
Besides that, allow me to give
you the assurance, Marshal, that
as soon as the situation in the
Mediterranean is improved to
the point that it is no longer
imperilling the interests of the
Reich in maritime France, I
have decided to withdraw i'm
mediately my troops inside the
former line of demarcation.
FREE TO MOVE?
Lastly, l would also like to
give you the assurance, Mar
shall, that you and your govern
ment will be free to move with
out any limitations in the whole
Of France.
Actually I have pronounced
myself against the transfer of
the French government to Yer
sailles only because I feared
that enemy propaganda would
have pretended that you, Mar
shall, and your government had
been deprived of your freedom
and that in consequence you
were no more in the position Of
fulfilling your task in these con-
ditions.
Considering that owing to the
circumstances above stressed the
Reich and Italy have been fore
ed, in order to safeguard the
interests envisaged in the arm
istice conditions, to face the
threat Of the Anglo-Saxon ma
tons, and in consequece to abol-
ish the Reich frontier in France.
the reason for keeping the seat
Of government in Vichy does not
exist any more.
have therefore taken the
liberty of profiting by this mo-
ment to communicate with you
on the abolition of the clause
which has been in force since
the armistice.
I can understand, Marshal,
how bitter is the fate of your
country. Allow me, however. to
call your attention to the fate
Of my own people, compelled to
wage for several years q war
which had been forced upon
them without any fault on their
part and who now had to take
the above cited decision under
influence of the strongest neces-
sites.
formulate the hope that cir
cumstances will not bring q new
effusion Of blood between
France and Germany and that
on the contrary the measures
taken against the aggressors who
are still in the European contin-
ent will lead to q rapprochement
among European peoples.
Germank consequently has
decided to defend, il possible
shoulder to shoulder with
French soldiers, the borders Of
your country.

 The committees counter attacks on hoarding, haphazard purchasing of foodstuffs, profiteering and "ru- moritis" will be launched on numer- ous fronts.

SEES AMERICA
 !: PACING WORLD CULTURE RACE
By CHARLES SWEENEY
 United Press Staff Correspondent


 . Boston, Feb. 25. CUP)--A post war clash between two cultures - Russian and American--is predict .ed by the Swiss pianist composer Ernst Levy who made his Amer sican debut Feb. 20 with the Boston Symphony orchestra.
 e Author of nine symphonies and ssnumerous lesser works, Levy thinks that an exhausted postwar Eu- arope will provide ineffective con- petition for American and Russian .culture. Americas culture, he says, probably will be stronger because Its common people will have great ser ability to support it.
 ~ The Russian peasant, Levy be- 4ieves, has too long been steeped 1n ignorance and poverty and Rus pian living standards have been Uniformly low too long to readily -provide base for culture of aNorld-wide influence.
 z Music Appreciation Grows
 - Despite such things as the jazz which is always driving me out of 6rug stores," Levy thinks Amer 4cans have the education and 3ough physical vitality on which to base such culture and which will be sensitive enough to support . rising civilization that may be- Eome the foremost in the world a- After the war, Levy thinks there Till be a search en masse for fun- damental values. He believes super Aciality in living and art probably Eill cease. Levy believes that even DOW America is showing a growing love for the fundamentally good music. Such return won't mean @swinging the classics" Levy says. Imagine swinging Beethoven Like trying to make a short story put of the Bible"
 Janitor Minus Nuance
 = Another of the growing list of Kuropean artists seeking a new Start in the United States, Levy lived 20 years in Paris until two days before the Germans entered the French capital. Then he joined The stream of refugees clogging the escape road to Bordeaux.
 = Since September Levy has lived In Back Bay apartment teaching at the New England Conservatory of Music. He is doubtful about his Qwn future, but is grateful for his new start in America and the small things of freedom. But he thinks America has it's minor faults. Apolo- gizing the other day for the fact that his apartment was stone cold, Levy said the jaritor had mo sense of nuance."
