450,000 Railroad Workers
Will Take Jobs Back
at Once, Baldwin
Announces
(United Press)
London, May 14 — Industrial strife was subsiding in Great Britain today. Vigorous peace efforts have resulted in the signature of an agreement for the resumption of work by 450,000 striking railroad men, partial resumption of work by dock hands and the beginning of government intervention in the railway. Baldwin expects to result in the settlement of the coal strike next week.
Baldwin conferred with coal mine owners today after he had announced in the House of Commons that he had drafted terms for settlement of the mining dispute, and they then them to both parties. His proposal contains a promise of a $1,500,000 government subsidy it was announced. Baldwin proposes that the subsidy be made available but is contingent upon the miners and owners acceptance of the remainder of his proposal, which provides for settlement of all disputes in the dispute.

McMullen said that the young lawyer not attempt to learn law absolutely, but attempt to get its spirit. McDermott addressed the thirtieth annual meeting of the lawyers held last night at Wiedenmann's.
Dr. W, L. Burdick "the grand old man of the law school acted as tastemaster. The laws called him a mason." Mr. Burdick's right was his right as a chair left vacant in memory of "Uncle Jimmy" Green for 40 years dean of the school. Burdick rued the students, introduced to them by Zimin. Zimin's faculty characterization
The representatives of the classes spoke. First came Zinn, speaking for the freshmen, imitating the faculty, asking questions about background, and Dean Aran's contract class. But he spent most of his time with Burick. He acted well at a university.
Payne concluded for the students speaking in "Retrospect." He said "I have come here tonight to sling built, My subject was children gone." Then he spoke of the days of Green when the qualifications of students were to be able to chew and spit. Speaking of the "profs" he commented upon the continuous sales Dean Arant made of the profs at Dudley University on Van for the second time of the evening, and closed with a eulogy of Burdick.
Then came Birkhead who kicked Missouri. Birkhead last was a Missouri student and somewhat qualified.

Stags Will Be Admitted to Cakewalk for $1.25
"The admission or siros to the Senior Cake Walk tonight will be held on Friday in the managers' announcement and a morning." We have 300 tickets printed and they are selling fast. If any are left over they will be sold at the door to the manager.
Chuck Schofstall's 12 piece orchestra will furnish the music, and novel decorations, including special lighting arrangements are being prepared.
"We are trying to make this one of the best parties of the year," said Killip, "and because of the unprofitable admission of $1.00, the good music, decorations, favors, and refreshments will be distributed to the crowd. In fact, we may have to limit the attendance after the tickets which we have had printed are all sold."

Iood Writes Text Book
"I have read Professor Hood's manuscript with the greatest interest, Books on descriptive geometry appear in these books, and teaching it read them as they come, but they are all very much alike. New comes a new one with a new title and a new method of presentation that is surprised if it does not put new life into the old subject, and with it we may not have to explain so often to students why this study is in the curriculum."
A new text, "Geometry of Engineering Drawing," by George J. Wood, is published by the University is being published by the McGraw-Hill Book Company and will be ready about halfway through the course of the University of Kannan, receiving
Professor Hood's new text developed an entirely new and practical method of teaching descriptive geometry. The aim of the task is to help the student to think of the object itself, instead concerning himself with projections.

Freshman Headpiece to Appear on Campus for Three Days Only
Freshman caps are to be worn next week, from Wednesday until Friday, according to the decision arrived at Thursday morning by the meeting in Fraser Hall. Although the attendance at the meeting was small, the sentiment was heartily in favor of increasing the cap number to express their sincerity in endorsing the plan, the class members have decided to wear their caps these three days, according to Stanley Packer's guidance.
freshmen had taken the responsibilty of governing themselves, they could do no less than put forth some effort in the matter and that wearing the caps for only three days would set a precedent for future freshman classes. Also he said that three days would not be long enough to cause any resentment on the part of the first year men.

U. S. Trip to Pole Wanted
Naval Officers Start Movement for Expedition
Washington, May 14—A movement has been started here among the flying personnel of the navy for a polar mission sponsored by the United States.
As a result of the feat of the Norge in flying to the pole, there was a disposition to say "I told you so," and to recall how the projected flight of the Shermadohn to the North Pole had been called off.
A statement issued by Admiral Moffett discussing the flight was considered as clearly implying that he proposed flight of the Shenanix, landed out, this country would have a clear title to success aboard of others.
The best record that can be housed for new would be a road trip voyage to Antarctica. There are no longer Angeles or larger over a greater distance than could possibly be negotiated.
Secretary of the Navy Wilbor has yet to be convinced that the navy can accomplish much by such a flight.
