HOPE IN LEAGUE PLAN
Desires United States as Partner Instead of Guardian, Says Professor Patterson
17,000 Mile Trip in 101 Days
Chief Cities of Southern Continent are Visited—Andes Crossed by Motor Car
of South America, the Monroe doctrine is a dead issue, and the infant reason is that continental earnest desire to be taken in by the United States as a partner, rather than as a ward. These reasons, according to Prof. David L. Patterson, who returned Tuesday from a 17,000-mile trip through five of the South American countries, are putting pressure behind the League of Nations covenant.
"South America," Professor Patterson said, "approves entirely of President Wilson, especially in regard to his political ambitions." He added the South American republics: His "waterful" waiting they entirely approved of, and the entire continent with the exception of Colombia and Nicaragua, the people felt obliged toward the United States.
In the opinion of South America, the Monroe doctrine is a dead issue,
"Colombia is hostile because of the Panama republic complications that arose in Rocavalle's administration, and Chile was dominated before and their soldiers were even drilled during the late war and then dismissed by German officers, but now they have discarded both the German drillmasters and the German uniforms, and hold no active hostility against the United States."
Professor *Patterson* I tran pad experience exactly 161 days. He startled left and then crossed the sea to New Orleans and the Panama canal along the west coast of South America to Peru, where he startled east across the continent. On account of the trans-continental railway being out of repair, he was compelled to cross the Andes to the west boundary of the Argentine republic, a distance of 141 miles, by automobile. He then crossed the distance by boat to Buenos Aires.
From the Argentine Professor Paterson went by rail to Uruguay through five of the twelve states of Brazil and to Rio de Janeiro, leaving Rio some thirty days ago. During his stay in South America, he spent two hours to nine days in each of thirty-two leading cities of South America. He visited Argentina and America it being a continent of great promise. The only drawback at present is the slowness and inadequacy of transportation facilities.
Leaving Rio de Janeiro on September 2 by the stenner Teenyon, Professor Patterson came north to the Brazilian state of Amazonia, where the stenner caught fire. Professor Patterson and a couple of the other three hundred passengers caught a Norwegian tramp steamer, which took them to New York.
WOMEN WILL WATCH
FOOTBALL WEDNESDAY
No Dates Will Be Tolerated In Sorority
"Not a single University woman has been out to football practice on McCook Field this fall," said Joe Schwarz, cheerleader, today. "This is a regrettable fact, and must be remided at once."

Wednesday will probably be the final hard practice, and all the men will do their best, for from that days showing, Couch McCarty will probably pick the men to start the first game. They'll be the Pittsburgh Normal eleven Saturday.
Schwarz announces that no dates will be tolerated in sorority houses Wednesday afternoon, and that if recurrent parties will be organized to the four-fold "This is not a regular game, of course" Schwarz said, "But the universityopleugh ought to show their support of their team by coming out. As this event was raged, but only if they came to McCook with them.

There Is No Rest For The K, U. Women
How do K. U. u. women rest? They flock to the rest room in Fraser Hail and simply relax, forgetting lessons and dates?
A tired senior dropped in recently and stretched her weary frame on the couch. She had hardly closed her eyes for a nap when a sweet young thing took down the receivers of the telephone and said, "City, please give me your conversation punctuated with much 'aughter and 'You don't say.'"
The T. S., in spite of distractions, finally slept. She waked a half hour later and was shocked to find that the screen which thirty minutes before had the couch from view had been removed. Women were reading, writing, playing, talking, singing, in under tones—doing anything else than taking it easy.
Modern women, at least University women, apparently have no time to just rest. It's a busy little world they say.

Friends Tell Wilson Prospect Are Much Brighter Now Than Before His Tour
President Wilson has been given to understand that the situation in the Senate with regard to ratification of the peace treaty is "much improved" since he went on his speaking tour, and gave information at the White House today.
However, there is no immediate prospect of starting to vote on the treaty. The disposition of the White House is to hint that the opposition is delaying a vote because it has not enough strength to face a showdown.
Improvement in the situation—from the administration point of view—has been continuous during the last decade. Mr. Bush's Friends of the treaty, he was assured, now believe that ratification is possible without reservation or amendment which would necessitate an administrative back to the peace conference.

Railway Service Shows Improvement Despite Minor Acts Of Sabotage
(United Press)
London, Sept. 30.-Minor acts of sabotage have been reported in connection with the railway strike, the government announced in a statement issued today from Downing Street. It was reported in one instance that the switches on one of the roads had been thrown.
The railway service is improving, the statement said. The distribution of food is reported progressing satisfactorily.
The bus men and the tram operators closing a long session early today postponed their decision with regard to a sympathetic strike. They had originally planned to walk out tonight. Action by the transport workers also has been delayed. Despite the nation-wide railway blockade, the ministry has been able thus far to treat the amount of foodstuffs thus countering labor's first major blow and virtually removing the danger of starvation. Thus far it has hardly been necessary to draw upon stock reserve.

You are the ones whoLegge what they should be in the years to come. What are the lessons coming out of the war, and are the students going to take a definite stand on serious problems of the war such as cribbing in the classroom."
Mr. Cherrington went on to emphasize the importance of the attendance of faculty members. He said: "In order to present a clear cut issue, it is necessary to have every faculty member behind all Christian movements. That is why we want them at the conference, to provide an idea of what they can do for the constructive good on the campus."
