The feud is of long standing, -the underlying cause being resentment of normal man students against the uni- versity men's practice of making “dates” with the normal girls. When three university men, clad in knickers and wearing handkerchiefs about their necks, were caught in Ypsilanti Tues- day night they were promptly ducked in the pool. The invasion of last night came when the university men arrived in autornobile and afoot. The normal men were prepared, and the two forces met on the campus near a conven- fent pool. Officials of State Normal halted hos- tilities, but not before hundreds of co-eds and citizens surrounded the campus to watch the battle. 150 ANNAPOLIS MEN GO TO JOIN SHIPS IN PACIFIC New Ensigns Sail on Henderson and Memphis—House Com- mittee Leaves Also.

June 4.—The Nayal transport Henderson and the light cruiser Memphis left here this morning with 150 members of the Academy’s class which was graduated yesterday, and who will be assigned, as ensigns, to ships of the Pacific fleet.

This was especially the attitude of the “gute Hausfrau” toward her Ger- man husband. American women have ‘done ' away with that. They have uu;{‘m husbands their places!

I can only judge American men from what T have seen of them abroad, having a rest or come to in- vestigate things from a business view- point. I have known several in this way and liked them very much. I always found them human, kindly and exceedingly faithful friends. They used to like to imagine they found their own spirit of enterprise in me. That was because I could talk about what interested them. I. for one, like a man to be a man. T would even like him to be a mas- ter, a creaturs to be looked up to, admired, even obeved. Oh, yes! Why not, it he is worth obeying? There is a deMctous thrill in obeying some- thing big and strong and .kind—the ideal hero of ‘a good old-fashioned English novel, the strong, silent, hon- orable’ man, the pioneer. 3 " Knows Ideal on Sight. I have read books and books about him, and always I knew that would be my man of men. He gives me the right thrill. I feel him, so to say, in my flesh and blood, in my spirit. When I read of him he is entirely fraternal to me. 1 want to be with him at his side, his follower, his com- 'panion, his co-worker, in fact his mate.

Before any plan of financing local housing in accordance with the su, gestions made by former Senator Ball of Delaware can be made effective local citizens must assume the initia- tive in its management, Secretary of Commerce Hoover declared today at the White House. Secretary Hoover said he was too busy with departmental matters to take any active part in developing the project. He held several conferences with former Senator Ball before the latter left for his home in Wilmington several days ago, but has no informa- tion indicating that Senator Ball in- tends. to give any further time or energy to making his plan effective. The idea advanced by Senator Ball provided for the creation of a financ- ing corporation to loan money on sec- ond mortgages at reasonable rates of interest as a means of reducing build- ing costs. He furnished President Coolidge with the details of his and, at the request of the Pre t, furnished the names of a number of individuals who were interested and who_had given assurance of co-operat- ing in developing the project.

T have never tried to be a man's rival, but T must also confess that I have never lived the delicious old-fashioned thrill of being mastered and overruled by a man—except by my old uncle, the king. But there was no thriil about that. It was like being terrorized by a schoolmaster, and was not agreeable in any sort of way. It simply put my back up and made me feel revo- lutionary ‘through and through. Dislikes German Standard. T never cared for the German man's attitude toward women. He never in any way admits that she can be an equal. The Kaiser himself is supposed to have sald that women were meant for Kkitchen, nursery and church. There ls little chivairy in that way of disposing of women. The German man always wanted to be pandered to, considered as a thing apart that women must be proud to serve. When he was a splendid Siegtried riding through the forest on a snow- white steed with a magic sword i’ his hand, that attitude was bearable. But not at all when the lord and mas- ter allowed- his tummy to expand, smoked strong cigars and sat in an mchéir with a pink stein of beer at his elbow.

Declaring that the first report re- ceived since his return from Admiral Blllard on results of the Coast Guard re ' against the rum fleet was ‘“‘most gratifying” the statement said that “more has been accomplish- ed than could have been anticipated from what was in reality a pzsim- inary skirmish designed to uncover the strength and resources of the enemy.

The District Commissioners are called on by truck owners and opera- tors to repeal the section of the new regulation which prohibits the loading of trucks beyond the maximum ca- pacity set by the manufacturers of the trucks, in a resolution adopted last night by a mass meeting in the office of Jerome Fanciulll of the Gen- eral Motors Co., 1206 Twenty-tl street, and présented to the Commis. sioners today, ‘The restrictions, it enforced, would result in an increased cost to the con- sumers of from 10 to §0 per cent in the price of every commodity or serv- ice in which hauling is a factor, the Commissioners were told. It is. easler to provide streets to take care of overloaded trucks than it is to provide streets to take care of the additional 2,000 trucks they say will be made necessary by enforce- ment of the new order, the truck owners contended. “Joker” Is Cited. ““The joker of the regulation,” B. F. Andersori, chairman of the mass meet- ing, declared, “is that we must con- form -to restrictions set by manufac- turefs of trucks in other States. ““The regulation, in effect, has dele- gated to manufacturers in all parts of the country how heavily we may load trucks operated on District streets.” Mr. Anderson said the former limi- tation of 28,800 pounds &s the maxi- mum gross weight which could be placed on a truck was sufficient regu- Tation.
