VALPARAISO. IND., May 5. Athlctk in Valparaiso have been suspended for- an indefinite period because of the war. The action was taken by the Student Council at the request of J. E. Ityan. chairman of the athletic committee. Colleges and 'universities throughout the country have cancelled athletic engagements f.ince war has been declared. The principal events which are affected here are the baseball KHir.e with Niapara University, scheduled for May 19. and the track meet which. was to be held the latter part of the month. Assistant Athletic Manager Hansel Jghnson was instructed to notify the Niagara team. The action of the council was deemed

! advisable for several reasons. The unrest among students since the outbreak of the war lias caused a lack of lnterj est in khe atheltic events. The baseI ball frames and the athletic shows were : poorly patronized, netting scarcely enoue-h to meet the expenses. Further- ' more several members of the baseball

and track teams have left school to enlist in the army and navy. Athletic

committeemen reel unsettled and are not In a position to look after the finances of the athletic events. The order became effective Immediately. The interclass games planned for Saturday were called oft and the wrestling: match which was to have been held in the gym last night

was cancelled.

INDIANAPOLIS. IND., May 5.

He declined to' make a statement The police are searching for a woman who was said to have been with Shay at the time of the shooting, but they had found no trace, of her. The trouble leading to the shooting is said to have started over the amount of

sugar in the bowl on the table at which Shay was eltting. Shay first made his abjection to a colored bus boy, and then to Euell. The latter, it is said, obtained two sugar bowls from nearby tables and placed them before Shay. It was following this that the shooting took place.

Now upon its second triumphant year with a record of perfect scores and highest economy honors in every contest it has entered, including some of the most gruelling reliability and endurance-runs of the past season. The most recent championship performance of the El&in Six was tho establishing of -a new record of 67 hours between Chicago and Miami, Florida, over some of the roughest, steepest mountain roads and through the heaviest sand and mud in the country. The El&in improved velvet-acting clutch enables the Elfein Six to be started on hi&h ear, under ordinary conditions, eliminating almost entirely the necessity of feear shifting and removing the last barrier to the safe and easy driving of a motor car by women,. The El&in improved cantilever rear spring suspension, found only in El&in cars, has set a new standard of motoring ease and comfort at hi&h speed. You can safely drive an Elin Six in comfort at 35 to 50 miles ah hour over roads so rough that the average car is limited to half that speed. That this big, roomy, impressive quality car has been designed to sell at less than $1,000 is the most notable achievement of the year in motordonu $1,500 quality at $985 Can you afford to buy a small "cheap Six" when for a slight additional cost you can drive this Capable Six this big, roomy, impressive quality car, of supreme beauty and comfort? Can yoUf afford to pay more than the Elgin Six price when this "Beauty" of the Road" embodies in such full measure all the quality, style and comfort desired by the discriminating motorist?
