With Captain Wendell Stanley back forth- fourth time, it appears that he will have the choice to control • . right end again. Stanley was selected last season as second all-state end and is back again to lead his pigskin warriors. Don Parker also is assured . of a place after spending the summer keeping fit in a log camp in New York state. The battle for the other end position probably will be between Parker and Jim Clark, both letter men of last year. “Big Bad Bill’’ Simkin, as he is • known in football circles, probably will hold his job as tackle as he has i 190 pounds to back him up. Slewart > Wallace, tackle of last year, will be out this season, but Bob Hampton, last season guard, may fill this gap. A number of freshmen expected to . show promising material, are being i relied upon to furnish any positions . weakened by losses from last year's a crew. Veterans are even now working daily with their new material and reports are good. e w, o > —— e Charleston, W.

DESCRIBES 11l i: TRIP TO EUROPE (Continue 1 I kite Cue) placed in charge. "We visited ihe Catacombs and ColBenin uud the Blue Grotto. This trip was made in row boats. In order to get there into this grotto it was nee 1 essary to lie flat in the boat as the pa- age way was so low and narrow. 'ln Venice wi saw St. Mark's Cathedral and glass factories, hi Milan we saw wonderful and elaborate art galleries and the picture of the ‘Last Supper,’ by De Vince, this being the genuine picture—Lugano in the midst of the beautiful Italian lakes. in Switzerland we visited the Mount, ain and Lion of |.ucerne. These lire remains dating from the period of the Glacier.: Here we also visited tlle 'Ji.id-ai.' ;. mountain 11.48 U feet above sea level, revealing to a traveler the i marvels of glacier regions, while the' Wmgernalp Railway descends amidst ‘' itr»;t,-h< s of Alpine roses, through «(,ods of ( nibra pine, whence the Hain returns to Int rlfcken. Interlaken is a famous health resort. , I 1 ' We <hen took the steamer olv< r the ( Rhine, where the scenery was most , I beautiful. Many beautiful castles and ( bridges «'» 1-0 seen. We also visited , I’J.elleau Wood.’ It Is said that Gen|«ial Bi rshliig, in speaking of the battle of Belleau Wood called it the j : 'Gettysburg of the- Great War.' We , ■i :i branched off to Lm-y-C-Boeage |

with its shell torn church and houses, tf.e se<-ne of the fierce fighting which preceded te battle of Beleau Wood. From Belleau we reaedd Chateau Thierry. a town on the Marne, which was the pivet of the American attack of ISIS. The town, which was largely destroy d, sti.l shows many ol its war scars,. On to I’argny in tin center of the luxuriant Champagne vineyards and from here we got tilt first view of the martyr city ol Rheini -. Rheims, a city cf 120,(100 people in 1911 now only 70,000—for of 14.001 'houses. 12,000 were almost entirely destroyed. From here we visited the Cemetery of Staglieno, which is characterized by its being laid partly on flat grouiid and partly on h'll ami endowed will, picturesoue groves and Hower beds which lighten te sense of deep sad ness that one feels at the sights ot those enclosures of sorrow. We also visited the American (Vine lery in France. This cemetery is most beautifully kept up with its glav el walks, green grass and in the cent ir is an American flag; each grave marked with a white cross bearing the name of the dead soldier. Wher. we visited the American cemetery wt had to register. Till- last four w < eks we spent it Germany at Ankeem, Munster, Col ogne, visiting Mr. Borling's sister, Mrs Garrett Sturnberg, and neices and nepehws of Mr. Gerling, at Ankeem. o OPENING DAY OF EXPOSITION ATTRACTS CROW!)
