other pleasant thoughts crossed his
mind and a smile touched his lips
and hung there. The smile went
from smile to a broad grin, for
he was happy to be home.
When he reached the door and
his hand pressed the bell, he noticed
that his hand was shaking, but he
didn't care, for it was like heaven
to be home again, and this time for
good. He took his hand from the
bell and felt his pocket to make sure
that his discharge papers were still
there. He had heard the bell ring
inside the house, and had felt the
discharge papers in his pocket. And
on his lace he still wore that large
grin
He heard the door knob as it
turned and he felt himself wish that
the person would hurry and open
the door And then the door opened.
There stood his wife, their eyes
met and held and his lips moved
but no sound came to them, he
could see the tears in her eyes, then
he felt the hot tears burning down
his own face. He suddenly swept her
into his arms and pressed his lips
on her parted lips and he kissed her
and she was kissed like they had
never kissed before.
He then picked her up and carried
her in to the living room, where he
stood her on her feet and then sat
down and Rugged his wife and son
who had just entered the room. For
the war was over in the Mandelson
home.
How oo know all this? I suppose
you're asking. Well I'm one of thc
thousand eyes OF the night and
nothing is secret to me.

Inter-Regiment League
Basketball Thrilling
Every Company

Teams that belong to the in
ter-regimental league now find
that the games are becoming
tougher and tougher. Now that
all teams are practicing and
going over new plays. 1t is
even rumored that few com
panies are rehearsing new plays
in their own areas, SO that the
scouts from the other companies
won't have chance to get a sneak
preyiew of the play and inform their
respective teams SO that they will
be on the alert against the plays.
Coaches are drilling their teams
deep into the heart Of the night.
There must be something funny
afoot, because, whenever you meet
them on the street they greet you
with a. self satisfied, smile.
Watch your company bulletin
board for the next game, and you
may rest assured that none of the
games will be an easy one.
Games are played at the Field
House every Monday, Wednesday,
Friday and Saturday evenings.

While attending Harvard Univer-
sity at about the time the majority
of the soldiers in the regiment were
born, 192l-1924, "Ned" was the OUT
standing track performer on the
Crimson" team and one of the best
all-around cinder men in the nation.
Broke Worlds Record
According to the chronology Of
'The Negro, in Sports" by Bancroft
Henderson, Colonel Gourdin is the
first human being to clear 25 feet
in the running broad jump, leaping
to world record Of 25 feet, 8 inches,
in July, 1921. During 1921 and 1922,
Colonel Gourdin held the National
Pentathelon record, gained by COM
piling greater total of points than
any other competitor in five track
and field events.
In the 1924 Olympic games held in
Paris, France, Colonel Gourdin fin
ished second in the running broad
Jump to DeHart Hubbard, who set
new world record at winning the
event.
Keeping in excellent physical con-
dition by daily exercise, the Colonel
Is probably, at present, one of the

One of the outstanding inemen
in the 372nd ALI Stars forward
wall is 22-year-old Sgt. Arnold
Finney, who is the right end. This
lean, lanky, 6. foot, 1 inch lad is a
native New Yorker and attended
Dewitt Clinton High School,
where his principle sport was baS-
ketball. Strange as it seems, he
has never played any football un-,
til this season. To see him per-
form, one is inclined to believe
that he has been a participant of
the game for a long time. He is
known for his ability to keep the
plays coming his way, always on
the inside, and giving his team
mates a better chance to stop the
runner. He is a good pass receiver
and once the Edwards Finney
combine starts to click, it has
proved to be trouble for the Mules.

On Peace Issue
President Moy Get
Peoeekeep;ns Powers

WASHINGTON, July 17-tR)
Two republican Senators pre-
dicted today that Congress will
authorize the President TO exer-

This would settle the contro-
versy over authority to be grant
ed the American representative
on the proposed World Security
Council of the United Nations
Senators Vandenberg of Mich

said in separate interviews they
believe the Foreign Relations
Committee pointed the way to-
ward solution of this issue in
its formal report recommending
ratification of the United Nations
Charter.
Vandenberg helped fashion
the Charter as a delegate to the
San Francisco Conference. Mil
kin led the critical questioning

satisfied and would vote for rat

The committee report declared
that any attempt to require adj

each instance before American

rection of the Council would
violate the spirit of the Char
ter.
Such a proposal may be made

Under this system, Vanden-

begins, the Michigan Senator
suggested that no definition Oe
