Unofficial returns showed Underwood defeated Musgrove by about 20,000 votes, with many scattered

Musgrove’s contest will be filed before the Democratic executive committee as the election was held without state sanction and was entirely in the hands of the party organiza*

FRENCH FRANC GOES UP PARIS, .March 12.—(UP)—The French franc continued today to respond to strong stimulative measures i adopted by the government and j opened today at 25 francs 80 cen-
times to the dollar.
Yesterday the dollar was quoted at 27 francs 30 centimes at the open-

WASHINGTON, March fight to oust Attorney Daugherty will be carried
open tomorrow.
Today the investigating committee masked its preparations in Secrecy. Senator Burton K. Wheeler, Democrat of Montana who will assume charge of the open hearing at which Daugherty’s management of his department affairs will be attacked, disappeared for 24 hours. Wheeler was not at his office Tuesday, nor at his home dtiring the night lending an air of mystery to the fin-
hearing.
One report was that the Montana senator was delving personally into the files of the department of justice, seeking certain records in connection with the revolt of Cantu in low-
er California in 1921.

DePAUW NOILS:
A most humorous incident occured this morning at chapel time. Dr. W. M. Blanchard, official announcer of the University, read an announcement which stated that the Home Economics’ Club woul dhold a “Spring Frolic” at the Gymnasium Saturday evening from 8 to 11 o’clock and asked that half of the girls come dressed as men and half as women. Prof. Van Denman Thompson, who later in the chapel exercises was introducing the chapel entertainers, stated that he did not fully understand Prof. Blanchard’s announcement and he was wondering just what half of each girl should be dressed as a man, et cetera. Musical compositions so modern that they scarcely have been written were given this morning by members of the DePauw Music School. The entertainment was of high order and the performes eceived the hearty applause of the student body, visitors and faculty members. The students who took part, with their compositions, are as follows: “Witchery,” a song written by Miss Alice McCartney, sung by Edwin Sayre, accompanied by Miss McCartney; ‘“Romance,” a violin number, written by Miss Mildred Owens, played by John Sapp, accompanied by Miss Owens; a quartette number, un-named, written by Miss Bernice
Giendoira The Wonder Coal Costs More, Worth More A. J. DUFF Phone 317
Fee, sung by Alice McCartney, Lon. ise Landon, Paul Wyckoff and Edwin Sayre, accompanied by Miss Fee on the Bowman organ; and two numbers, both un-named, written by Miss Esther Alice Green, pianist and John Sapp, violinist. The number composed by John Sapp brought a thunderous apaluase from the audience. The entertainment as one of the most interesting given this year and shows what is being done in the way of original work in the DePau* School of Music. Those who have heard Mme. Normelli, the lyric seprano, who appear! wit the DePauw University Sympony Orchestra concert Fridav eveninf, | state that she has one of the most pleasing voices they have ever heard. Tickets are on sale at the J. & Langdon Book Store. The women of the DePauw faculty will entertain the men of the faulty with an informal party which will be held Wednesday evenin?, j March 19, at 7:30 o’clock, in Evans Hall.
