ATHLETICS AT EARLHAM HAS GOOD OUTLOOK Strong Football Squad is Expected This Year Good Freshmen Material Coming. At Earlham college as at other colleges 'there will be some lack of material for athletics this year, but on the whole athletics will be helped rather than hurt by the war. Athletics will be "played strong" In the school course at Earlham. Physical education will bo compulsory with Coach Mowe In charge of the boys' work and Mies Comstock In charge of the glils. Harold Brown will be assistant physical director under Mowe. This fall. Instead of waiting for school to open to start practice candlfor the varsity football team for the first football game that will be held About three weeks after school start3. Practtco will start about the middle of September. Last year the captains elected for the teams were: Jessup for basketball and Rockford for football. A new election for football captain will have to be held, as Rockford has entered the service, but Jessup. the basketball captain, will probably return to school this fall. The basketball schedule will be made out after school opens. None of the football men graduated last year. What men have entered the service .cannot be learned, but it is known 'hat a number have enlisted. Captain Edwards of the basketball team la now in France in the Friends Unit and Meeks is in the army. With Jessup as head of the basketbfillers and Robinson star of the Richmond hifrh school team, who is to enter Earlham this fall, and White of Lebanon coming, the chances look bright for a fast squad of leather tORsers. In the fotball squad at least eight "kl" men will bo back in school and among thc.se are Sumner and Howard Mills, Jessup, Osborne, Pitt3, Titsorth, Raiford and Gordon. With these men as a backbone, the team should be much better than last year. It has been several years since Earlham has had a state championship, but from the present outlook even the most pessimistic see "a silver linIn the cloud," and are looking forward to carrying off the state honors. The Freshman class of Earlham from the present indications will be the strongest from an athletic standpoint that has ever entered the school. Whit, who for two years played on the all-state basket-ball team and was captain, oe year will enter college here. He was on the Lebanon team for three years and they took the state championship twice. Miller of Rochester will also enter Earlham. Miller was another member cf the state team. All the Richmond "fans" remember Charley Robinson, one of the stars of tha Richmond high school team la.t year and one who will make a hard fight for a place on the first 6quadin college. Last year '"lobe" Jessup entered Earlham and made a great record in the athletic world. He has the distinction of being the first Freshman to bo awarded an "E" in four major sports, lie won them in basket-ball, baseball, track and football. It may be possible that tome of the Freshman class this year can equal this record. Besides all these Freshman athletes, practically all the old players are to return. The basket-ball squad will be hit the heaviest, as they lose their old captain, Edwards, and ore of the standby guards, "Speedy" Meeks. Carey can probably fill Edward's position and Johnson or TitsWorth can hold down the guard position. In football an all-star backfield should be developed including, Jessup, "Cy" Pitts, Raiford, Jefferis, Stanley, Davis, Glass and Clark. These men are all old players and no doubt they will be made to fight-for their positions by tome of the youngsters. Ohio Republicans Take Up State Prohibition (Ry Associated Press) COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 27. Writing a prohibition plank in the Ohio state republican platform for the November campaign is expected to be the principal net of today's session of the state party convention. The Hamilton county delegation, representing Cincinnati, the "wet" centre of the state, promises a stiff fight before yielding to dominant dry pressure, led by former governor Frank B. Willis, candidate for governor. E. M. Fullington of Columbus, was chosen as campaign manager yesterday after a hot pre-convention contest, during which W. E. Halloy, of Greenville, sponsored by Mr. Willis, was forced to withdraw on a threat of candidates that they would not run on the ticket under his management. Mr. Voter, if yon do not register you can not vote. The right to rote carries with it the duty to vote. Register by Oct 7.

Leaving the matter of Interest in the series out of the discussion for a moment we venture to say that the matter of spare coin will prevent thousands of fans from taking in one or more games. The average fan, like all other loyal Americans, has been making financial sacrifices to purchase liberty bonds, thrift stamps, and contribute to other recognized war funds. Tho $3 and $5 prices for grandstand and box seats probably will prevail again with the war tax raising the anti higher. The question can well be raised as to whether the average fan will fee able to- spare that amount. The big army of fans comes from factories and shops. These men have pledged themselves to give thir full time to war work to give 100 per cent, service and help speed up production. Last year the gross receipts of he games were $425,878. The players divided $152,888. The Chicago and New . York club owners go $230,401. The magnates and players probably are counting on a similar crop of dollars this year. Whether they will get It remains to be seen.

Woman's Section County Council of Defense

The 'government is now calling for 25,000 young women to Join the United States Nurses Reserve and hold themselves in readiness to train for service as nurses. f The call Is for women between the ages of 19 and 35. Intelligent, responsible women of good education and sound health are wanted the pick of the country. A college education is a valuable asset and many hospitals will give credit for it. Credit will also be given for a special scientific or for preliminary training in nursing, such as that given in special courses now being conducted by various colleges and schools. Some schools on the other hand do not even require a high school education. Women will be given an opportunity to enroll in the United States Nurse Reserve in any one of three ways: 1. As engaging to hold themselves In readiness until April 1, 1919, to accept assignments to nurses' training schools in civilian hospitals., These women will be sent to the schools as fast as vacancies occur. Those of superior qualifications will be given preference, and It is if course possible that not everyone who enrolls will be accepted. 2. As desiring to become candidates for the Army Nursing school which has recently been established by authority of the War Department, with branch schools In selected military hospitals. 3. As engaging to hold themselves in readiness until April 1, 1919, to accept assignments to either a civilian training school or the Army Nursing school. Those who so enroll will be called where the first need arises. The government hopes that a majority of those who enroll will thus put down their names for both. The army blanks for the Nurses Reserve have arrived. All girls who have been waiting on these are asked to call the Reid Memorial hospital at once. Over fifty applications have been made and the majority of the applicants desire to go to an army training camp. A number of applications have already been sent in.

It has been found more successful to shave the parafin into the bottom of the glass when canning Jelly and preserves. The parafin comes to the top and seals the glass more securely than if it were poured over the top.

The Forum (All articles for this column mast not exceed 300 words. Contributors must sign their names, although the name will he withheld by the management at the request of Ur writer. Articles having no name attached will be thrown into the waste basket.) One of the fundamental principles of organized labor is, and always has been, that there should be equal pay for eouaj work for both sexes. There have been times in the past when this declaration of principle was looked upon as in the abstract or somewhat remote. Probably at no previous time in the history of the organized labor movement has this principle come to the front as at present. We learn that in the English factories female labor Is being employed to an extent heretofore unknown, and as female labor has entered these industries working side by side with men, doing the same class of work. they are receiving the same pay, and they are receiving this "equal wages for equal work regardless of sex," simply and solely because it is, and always has been a vital principle of organized labor which, in the present instance, organized labor has been able to enforce wherever the case has come to issue. These same conditions are arising in Richmond. If we are fto send vast numbers of troops into atction, if we are to manufacture great Quantities of munitions and supplies, there must be a vast factory output, aad this, on the one hand, together witfc the taking away of men from industry, is leading as in England, to the) employment of great numbers of women in Richmond. It has always beeft a condition of industry in this city and if there was no organization of' wage earners in Richmond to enfoece the principle of equal pay for equal-work, female employes would draw even slimmer pay envelopes than they now do. Employers who always claimed to be solicitous for the welfare of their employes and particularly for the right of their employees to remain unorganized, usually treated the female worker as though the mere fact that she is a woman implies that she must work for less wages than a man, even though she do an equal amount of work and do it equally well. The reason why the principle "Equal pay for equal work regardless of sex," has been a fundamental principle of organized labor both in England and America, Is because of the tendency of employers to exploit female labor whenever they had a chance, and as war has given female labor in England an opportunity to obtain equal pay for equal work through the ability of the Unions to enforce the principle even so will war give female labor in Richmond an opportunity to obtain equal pay for equal MURRAY PRICES Balcony 1c.

It is said thvt the female workers of Great Eritaiin are very grateful to the trades unions for what they have done for the women workers in the way of procuring equal wages. It is said that thtey call the trade union their "life-belt which seems a very apt descriptive phrase as signifying that the trade tenion helps to keep the women workers afloat on the sea of Iddustry.

In industry, we want them to receivl wages enough to be selfsupporting and Independent for the moral interests Involved and for the future of the race. Reasons multiply why female labor should be affiliated with the unions, and through the unions receive equal pay for equal work. If labor is to be encouraged. It most be the result oft the activities of the workers themselves, let that be distinctly understood. Now organized labor is not & holdup, it is a business proposition, with a lot of fraternal benefits In ' it. Organization is the keynote of today, it is the practical intelligence of present-day activities. Labor unorganized Is at a tremendous disadvantage, it is antiquated and incompetent. It is as much out of place today as the ox cart or the wooden plow. If It were not for labor organizations the workers wonld be no Better than slaves and would be abso

lutely at the mercy of the dollar. Their lot is none to desirable even with the existing organizations. Isn't this problem of organization worth considering carefully by the citizens of Richmond. No city can boast of good living conditions unless labor, and especially female labor are given the utmost help in bettering their present de plorable state of affairs in this city. ROEBRT E. GRAHAM.
