] know about Kentucky, it seems
my son frankie and I are very
fortunate to be holding two tickets
for this contest.
Basically, it will be battle of
the split T with the major often
sive emphasis on the ground, versus
the tight T with the strength in
the air. 1t is true that Kentucky
varies its attack with some single
wing, double wing and spread for
nations, but primarily it is a 7
team. In Vito Parilli the Wild
cats have one of the Nations best
psssers, and his accurate arm
should give the New Orleans
guests the type of football that is
pleasing to the eye.
Although Oklahoma success on
the ground has been phenomenal
the Sooners also have a potent
passing attack. In Quarterback
Claude Arnold they have an ex-
cellent passer who has thrown IL
touchdown passes this fall.
BY its very nature. the split 7
must emphasize the running game

St. Johns has been the Catholic
League titlist for the last three
years and on its performance so
far this season must again be given
the nod in the early season ratings.
The Johnnies have won three
games and won them easily to say
the least. They have beaten
Chamberlain, 51-24: Priory, 60-29,
and st. Paul's. 60-32.
More of line on it's league
prospects will be known after the
Johnnies play St. Anthony's and
De Matha next week and Gonzaga

to get past the first two without
too much trouble but the Eagles
may provide more of a test.
The schedule is not very tough

lean University Freshmen and
Washington-Lee in February

Despite the loss of Bob Nc

ment, st. Johns has a well-round-
ed team again.

crowded with adherents to both sides
of the controversy and that night the
office of the Republican newspaper
was burned by mob. Burnside sent
more soldiers to Dayton and put the
town under martial law.
In Cincinnati Vallandigham was
found guilty by court presided
over by Gen. r. B. Potter and was
sentenced to confinement at Ft. War
rem, Boston, for the war period. This
was changed by Abraham Lincoln to
banishment to the lines of the South
ern Confederacy "and should the
prisoner return the original sentence
is to be carried out"
Democrats Got Mad
Judge Leavitt, of the U. S. District
Court, was applied to for writ of
habeas corpus to take the prisoner
out of the hands of the military.
Ably argued by George E. Pugh and
Aaron F. Perry and U. S. District
Attorney Flamen Ball in behalf of
General Burnside, the writ was denied
by Leavitt. The Democratic Party
was mad-about the arrest, the writ
and the whole proceedings. But
Vallandigham's conveyance under
military escort to the Rebel lines was
carried out.
Sunday night, May "a, 1863, the
squeaky whistle of a puny special
train on the now N. C. & st. L. R. r.
signaled the arrival of Valandigham
at Murfreesboro, Tennessee. He was
under guard of Captain Murray and
squad of the 18th Regular In
fantry. None of the 10000 Yankee
sympathizers there learned that the
editor had arrived. 1t was 2 m.
when Vallandigham was put in a
spring-wagon and started for the
Rebel line Two companies of caval-
ry escorted the wagon. Another
small wagon which followed contain
ed Vallandigham's trunk and person
al effects.
Delivered to Rebels
Through the streets of Murfres-
boro, down the Shelbyville road,
guard after guard and picket after
picket were passed; then across
Stone River and about daylight a
stop was made and two Union of
ficers went towards the Confederate's
vidette, plainly seen in the middle of
road a half mile off. The Yankees
carried flag of truce.
The flag returned with assurance
of Colonel Webb, 51st Alabama, C.
S. A., that he would receive the
prisoner. Two Union officers ac-
companied Vallandigham few yards
past the Rebel line and turned him
over to a lone private, sent to
receive him.
Paroled, Vallandigham was sent on
June II, that year to Canada, where
he waited the outcome of all
the events. The Democrats had
nominated him for governor of Ohio
by acclamation that month. In the
election he was beaten by Republican
John Brough by 100000 votes. VAL
landigham accidentally shot himself
to death June Is, 1871, in the Golden
Lamb Hotel, Lebanon.

Elementary Teacher
Training At College

Arrangements have now been COM
pleted for the offering of work for
elementary teacher education at
Bluffton College beginning in Sept
ember 1850. Tentative approval of
the program was secured recently
from the state department of educa-
ton.
1t is the intention of the college
to concentrate on a four year pro-
gram, with the B. S. degree in
elementary education as the ultimate
end. However, during the current
teacher shortage, the Ohio State
cadet teachers certificate will also
be issued. This certificate requires
two years of concentrated prepara-
ton, with the certificate valid for
four years of actual elementary
teaching.
The instructor to be secured for
the college program has had over
twenty years of elementary teaching
experience in various grades, and
will receive her M. A in education
at the end of the summer. At
present the name of the new profes-
sor cannot be released until further
notice.
1t is over twenty-five years since
Bluffton College has prepared ele-
mentary teachers, except in the fields
of art and music. However, due te
the increased demand for such q
course, the program is again being
offered. At present, fifteen to twenty
students are enrolled in this field.
