PRACTICE CONTINUES SINCE RAIN LET UP
Forty Men Expected Out For Spring Football by Coach
To Have Scrimmages Later
Allen
Lonborg, Bunn and Laslett Help Regular Coaches in Punting and Defense
Football practice which has been delayed this week so far on account of the actions of J. Pluvius will be resumed next Thursday afternoon at McCook Field, Coach Forrest Allen expects work to come. Work will be far according to the coach, and many men are coming into the fold.
Rule practice was staged Monday afternoon of this week in the Gymnasium and Coach Allen went over the more or less obscure rules that come up in playing the game. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday are official practice days. Official practice days of the week will be used as unofficial practices for all men who feel the need of special training along football lines.
The following varsity men have reported to Connelly all so far: Reid, Bell, Captain Nettles, Laslett, Bunn, Bunn, Simon, Saunders, and Duff, while men from last years freshman squad and new men brings the total up to thirty three men in uniform for every practice. The freshman Harris, Higgins, Ivy, Harrison, Harris, Higgins, Ivy, Little, Mey,Vce, McAdams, McDonald, McKee, Wulf, Wulf, Meeker, Harrison, Welch, "Bidge" Welly, Naismith and Symms, "Pork" Harmis is also on duty and an objection almost four years.
Scrimmages will be staged later in the season and some real signal practice is planned by the coaching staff. The students will be trained with Ad Lindsay as punters and Scrubby Laslett is instructing the line in the art of defense, while Coach Allen keeps the rest of the men busy with scrimming or pucking the execution of them.
"I think we will have a good run of football weather this spring," said Coach Allen this morning, "and I am going to plan the spring football practice schedule accordingly. Six weeks still remain to work with the team and get them off to a flying start next fall."
Vovaces of Words
We all know what an army of French words has billed itself permanently upon the English language. Not so many of us think of the morale-bake French and English, of the numerous French words naturalized in French. In sport, of course, this English contient was to be expected, "Champon", "ring", "knockout", "coming man", "singles", "the ring", "intrude", "rink"—long is the list of such English words in French. Even the French labor dialect has suffered some English infusions—"trade union", "lockout", "leader". There is even the love, the play, the lookout, the surrender, the make-up; these exported names of an must mostly remain unmentionable here.
The war has introduced "boy scouts," hardy to be recognized in its French pronunciation, "secoots." "Tancks" and "nurses" are familiar words in contemporary French. At a theatre or railroad office you are almost as likely to get a "ticket" as a "billet." On the golf links, wrote an English collector of French Anglophones last year, "one may hear her clumping her head over the clumy 'louse torner'" "Lavatory" has suffered a sea change. In Paris it means a barber shop where you can get a shampoo.
From an Oxonian in Belgrade, writing to The London Spectator, we hear of the excursions of English words into Serbia. Some of them are slightly Serbified, but can be easily recognized. For example, a carpenter's diary includes the phrase "turrail" or "dredotk." "Transport" has made its way unimagined. "Submarine" has come in from the French in the form of "Sumanen." Tanks are "tankovi." No interpretation is necessary of the Serbian form of a world word, "fordovl." "What region on the earth is not full of your labor?" There are war words but "djentlemanik" entered Belgrade. Communications between peoples increase, alien words of many languages are naturalized—New York Times.
Both the University of Wyoming and Grinnell College recently held leap year parties, where the co-eds actually made the dates and accompanied "unassuming youths" to the dance.
Sachems' Elect Members To be Announced in May
Fifteen men were elected to the Sachahe Tuesday night in the annual election held at the Beta house. The names of the men are to be announced by Chancellor Strong at the first convoitation in May.
"The meeting held last night," said George Bailey, president, "one of the best meetings held this year. Several important matters were taken up but the athletic season for the remainder of the year was the chief matter acted on. We have noticed the large attendance of the athletic events to this baseball and track team to the fullest extent. We are going to sell season tickets for the remainder of the athletic season and all Sachs must see me immediately and get tickets to sell."
DANCE IN OLD CLOTHES
W. S. G. A. Will Give a 250 Community Dance Friday Night
An Old Clothes Community Party will be held in Robinson Gymnasium Friday, April 23, for the admission price of twenty-five cents a person. The community dance committee of W. S. G. A. is in charge of the dance, and they are presented per couple, in order to emphasize men and women coming without dates, and getting acquainted there.
"This Old Clothes Community Dance is in direct line with the old clothes movement that is going about the hill now," said Iris Russell, chairman of the W. S. G. A. community dance committee. "There are to be no more varsity dances this year, due to the fact that individual organizations have rented the hall each week-end from now until June."
"There have been no parties for the last two months for less than $1.50," said Miss Russell, "and they have ranged up to $5, and this price is too high for many students on the hill who enjoy dinner at a restaurant. That is to give a party that every one can come to, and does not have to have a date to do so."
The committee wants every one, men and women, to appear at the dance in old clothes. They contend that if the men can wear their overalls on the dance, they will do it on the dance, thus giving an informal atmosphere to the party.
At the meeting of W. S. G. A. last night, there was a discussion in regard to this recent old-clothes movement affront on the campus. They decided it was foolish for the men to buy new overalls, but they strongly advised both men and women to wear their old clothes, and will advocate the women wearing their dark clothes in order to be possible until it was weather forbids, thus cutting down the quantity of new light dress goods that will otherwise be purchased. A resolution to this effect was passed by W. S. G. A.
O. S. U. Pan-hell. Decides For Three Party Limit

Adm. $2.50
Dr. Bella Allen, of New York, travel secretary for Student Volunteers met with the organization and their friends Tuesday evening at a pincere supper on the campus. Doctor Allen has spent more than seven years both Japan and in India, having worked both educationally and work in those countries.
Doctor Allen spoke to the meeting on, "our responsibility to the nonchristian world," and he spoke to the fellowers, "evangelization of the world in this generation."
Committee Supports Uniformity in Dress
(Continued from Page 1.) the Board of admissions that some steps need to improve the education of women students and democratize their social life. "I have no doubt," says Doctor Sudler, "that most colds and similar ailments of women students are caused by the inappropriate clothing worn to
"I would have a real artist design these costumes and have skilled laborers make them so that they would be pretty. This mode of dress would eliminate rivalry among the women and would go a long way in relieving the money of the parents in supplying the money a college woman needs for dress."
It was the opinion of many that radical steps must be taken to get university life away from the sham basis it has been assuming. Mrs. A. F. Whyte, wife of the member of British Parliament who spoke here last fall, remarked with some astonishment of the artisticistic tendencies shown by University students in a democracy.
All women who have signed up for the Maypole dance, and all those who are interested in it, report at the gymnasium at 4:30 Friday. Miss Steger.
"I am strongly in favor of seeing our women look pretty and attractive," said Dr. Martha Bacon, head of the women's department of physical education for that reason I desire very much to see them show the good common sense, which all of them have, and adopt a neat uniform to wear to class. Every woman would be much more attractive, in a well-fitting uniform.
