Department of Peace
A proposal for a federal Depart
ment of Fence for definitely pro
moting International friendship waa
made by Frank E. Gannett, pub
lisher of Gannett Newspapers, in
a radio address from WEAK on a
national hook-up for the Interna
tional Committee of the YMCA,
Wednesday, March 14. This was
information received by Lb* local
“Y" last week.
. “Is it any wonder we have
wars when we consider the govern
mental set-up of all nationsT
Every nation has its Department
of War, the business of which is to
prepare tpr war and make war.
Has any nation a Department of
Peace, whose business it is, not to
make war, but to make panes? M
Mr. Gannett emphasised the idea
that the best method for gaining
international friendship, is the pro
motion of peace, not the fighting
of war.
All other nations would have to
follow America's lend if we should
set up a Department of Peace with
a cabinet officer at its bead, he be
lieved.

WATCHING THE AGGIES—

Stefani and Mitchell have won the
doubles championship for the past
three years and probably the only
reason they did not win it again
this year was that H was discon
tinued. In tangles, Stefani won the
matches his first and second year
and because Mitchell was his op
ponent In the finals last year, they
did not play each other to decide
the winner. No individual matches
were held this year.
THE FRRSHMAN relay team

at the Fat Stock Show in Fort
Worth hut the College refused to
send them. Not to hr discouraged
by this, however, the freshmen

“sophistry” meant “knowing what’s

synonym for “clever”, then “dis

“stupid"; and forty-eight missed
