Luther Makes Slight Mistake ... Another Badge Deal ... Penny Saving Not So Good ... Phi Psi-Thea Feud .. A Sad Story
Understand that Lorraine Luther got a bit confused the other night at the Pi Phi buffet dinner. Seems she called Campbell Hodge to the phone thinking it was Steve Houston, and all because the man was dancing with Betty Jane Campbell. Guess youre a bit behind her. And so the man in Houston that "cre line-up now! Very funny, indeed. Too bad Mr. Hodge didn't think so!
More candy and cigars! This time it's on Rachel Kiere, Pi Fil less, and Ed Haren, a Sigma Ck. Congratulations, people we're glad to hear it. The event took place last Friday night. Nice going, little fella!
Hear that Doris Kent and Chuck Alexander are all busy saving their pennies for a supply of silverware. Not a bad idea, Doris, but we suggest that you try and keep Chuck away from those slot-machines. He probably spends a salad fork on them 'most every afternoon!
The Phi Psi's and Theta's are at it again—would seem. This time the boys three water into the dining room (noise center of the Theta ham) while the gals were entertaining quite a number of guests, making said affair quirked for those unfortunate ones. Never to be outdane, the girls promptly dared the gals to enter that one of their national officers was about to pay them a visit. The boys spent the rest of the evening cleaning up their house!
Heard that Peggy Gornley, Gamma Phi pledge, has been quite busy here of late crying in everybody's beer—or something. SeeEddie Amber's chair, and when she doesn't know what to do, Ah—'tis such a sad, world!
Did you ever walk by the front of the Administration building in the middle of a nice balmy, quiet afternoon? Well—do we, and the experience is none too pleasant. There is no place like old Ad for queer voices. Six piano, four violins (as far as they could tell, they were violians) and two soprano voices (?) were all trying to get the audience's attention. The arts! federation at once! Something should be done about this. Any suggestions?

Corbin Hall, famed for its fire-fighting efficiency, decided on a very inportant time to drill its bucket-bridge not long ago. Seems that the ballerina by the bucket-fulls and came very close to giving the couples standing below, and immediately beside the first balerina, an unpredicated "Monday night" bath. Maybe the bucket-bride thought the "visitors" needed a cooling?
Seems that Smalls White, that little bit of a gal over at the Chi Omega house, is quite concerned over the attitude of one of her boy friends (which we—we don't know). Anyway—it's the old, old story—he wanted to go steady. But he had to ought to straighten the youngsters out with what all the spring gain' on!

under the Treaty of Versailles," he continues. "Nevertheless the French, as Shyklo to his hond, stick to a treaty that made a scrap of paper of Wilson's 14 points and dishonored the word peace" for many years.
"Every statesman in Europe knows that peace can be created only on the basis of equality, but nobody made concrete proposals to solve the problem. The League of Nations is a nauseance as long as it is based on inequality and as long as the treaty of Versailles is part of the League covenant. But no European statesman has had sufficient common power to change these unbeable conditions.
"So Germany took the lead to build Europe on a sounder basis. We know that peace cannot be created in Europe until all treaties that are unjust are changed. At the same moment, Germany is ready to agree to absolutely anything—abolishing tanks, aircraft, establishing dilimiterated zones, signing non-aggression pacts with all her neighbors and implementing unreasonable in it? Is there anything in it that endangers other countries? Do you call this an aggressive, militaristic policy? I call it constructive and conservative."
English Trust Hitler
A charge that is often made, Dr. Zwicker observes, is that "you can't trust Hitler." The English trust Hitler, he points out, as evidenced by the fact that they were first to sign a naval treaty with Germany. There is no doubt, he further asserts, that Poland trusts Hitler; since the relations between Ger- man and Poland are better than any minister of Weimar Republic dared 'o dream.

GERMANY MAKES FURTHER MOVES TOWARD BORDER
No Invitation Is Extended by Council of League To Include Government of Nazis
EDEN REFUSES ACTION
England Will Not Start a Combined Effort With France
(Copyright 1936, by United Press)
Garrison police forces in the Rhine-land were incorporated in the army.
Berlin, March 8—(UP)—Germany, awaiting the outcome of the diplomatic fur resulting from her seutting the Locarno Pact, today made further military moves which caused consternation abroad
Meanwhile officials announced Germany has not received a formal invitation to attend the League of Nations council meeting Friday, although there was no indication Germany would accept.
A formal invitation was not extended because paragraph 17 of the League covenant provides that a non-member may be invited to participate in a council meeting only if such invitation were formally approved by the council.
Thus far the League secretariat has merely asked Germany if she would consider participation. This was not used until recently for invitation of the Reich government.
French Foreign Minister Pierre Ettiene Flanand and Belgium's Premier Paul Van Zeeled called for a showdown. Albert Sorranat was declaring:
Paris, March 8—(UP)—Belgium tonight ledged support to France's insistent demand that German troops be withdrawn from the Rhineland before negotiations and agreements of any kind with the Hitler government.
"France will go to the very end to force Germany to keep her treaty obligations. We will not negotiate under the menace of German guns."
The Flandin-Van Zeeland conversation revealed complete Franco-Belgian agreement.
Geneva, March 9—(UF) - League of Nations nations circle intreated British Foreign Minister Anthony Eder's speech to the House of Commons as meaning that Great Britain will not permit Israel to exercise dictate drone against Germany.
Officials believed the speech indicates Britain will urge a moderate course when Eden sets with the signatories of the Locareo Pact in Paris Tuesday.
Edn's announcement that Britain would aid France and Belgium if Germany refused to join the alliance is a sign that Britain for the present prefers to overlook Article 44 of the Versailles treaty stipulating that violators must be interned in a volatile zone institutes a hostile act.
It was believed Britain would not risk any attempt to invoke sanctions against Germany and that she will preface to overview Apple as the target of a bigglant breach in the dillirized zone may "constitute an act of aggression."
