"We are not definiteâ€" ly in and not definitely out of comâ€" petition this season. We will have a definite arswer in a couple of weeks. If we do put a team in the league this year it will mean the importation of at least, ten new players.‘ Following this anmouncement the league execuâ€" tive decided to leave further discussion to the executive meeting.

The flag he has cn the McIntyre pole is nearly worn out, and since the MeIntyre won the T.BL champilonship, A pennant would be a gcod replacement." To end the conâ€" troversy President Hotchkin suggested that he donate a pennant, but Bill Brydge said that he would do that, as "Hotch" has done too many persona‘ things in the past to cover Uup differâ€" ences.

Increasing intensity of World War II might be judged by the vehemence of | Prime Minister Chamberlain‘s remarks about the Nazis. He hit a new high on Tuesday when he described them as ; "monsters of wickedness‘" and said that ] "no people can be safe until this mad j dog is destroyed." _ Throughout this conflict the Germans nave had a mental edge inasmuch as they don‘t play by rules. Rules of comâ€" mon decency they have regarded as weaknesses on the part of the Allies. | Their conduct, however, has proved a boomerang. Any advantage they might have gained by unscrupulousness ’.ohey' have lost in worldâ€"wide indignation at‘ their tactics, Returning good for evil would not seem to be a very astute policy against what Churchill calls the "nasty Nazis" (very long "a‘"‘). That two can play at the game has been amply daemonstrated by the force of the Alled naval camâ€" paign in Scandanavia. There Gregt Britain, an particular, struck with all her might and the result was devastaâ€" ting to Germany. * It would be good to be able to fight with an enemy who, like yourself, reâ€" garded war as an evil thing and tried to hurt as few innocent people as posâ€" sible. It cannot be however, and so the Allies are being forced to reluctantly don brass knuckles and fight grimly and with intent to do as much damage as possible. operation did him no good it at least did him no harm.

Two hundred and fiftyâ€"five never exâ€" perienced these acute attacks,. Some of their histories were: a college girl who was rushed to the table so fast that she did not have the opportunity to inform the surgeon that she had been on a walnut fudge binge; "a man wo had just had a violent argument with his wife;" several school teachers who were "worn out" with fatigue; a young woman who couldn‘t digest onions: "one gril who simply vomited onions; ‘"one gril who simp‘ly vomited her dinner." Most remarkable story of all, wrote Dr. Alvarez, was that of a woman who gave as her only reason for the appenâ€" dectomy she had had done, the fact that on arrivai in Los Angéeles one day she foum a big convention underway "Would to God this was true.
