C Eddie Col lins who has cavorted around the key stone suck with hlKh percontiifseB for the Chtrago White Sox for yearn will not need to move to New York, so far as the Yankees are concerned. The .Yankees have been neROtlnt- ing to secure the services of Collins, but last night Kd Harrow, business manager of the world champions, re ceived a message from Harry Orabl ner, secretary of the Sox Informing him that if Aaron "Ward, the Yankee Hec'ond baseman, were Included, the Sox might trade, otherwise not.

Ue forU he boarded the train he paused to say: .r" "Ward will not bo traded " under nny circumstances and if Frank Chance at lionton, Insists that he muHt have Ward, the negotiations will die right there. However, Chance may change, his mind and neleet ono of the players wo mentioned last week when wo said we would trade any Yankee, excepting Ituth, Ward, Dugan and Jones, 1 notice that a lot of persons llHbellcved that stattMnent, but Inso far as a deal for Collins goes, It stands. Furthermore if the Box want one of our pitchers In the deal they will have to give us a pitcher. Last winter wo declined to take Charley Robertson In such a deal and hold out for Ted Blankenshlp. Now wo are willing to take llohertson. Chance has a wido range of material to pick from and we may do buslneHs, but if he Insists on Ward, Collins will stay in Chicago." Welsmuller Wins.

In Its latest search for valuable minerul wealth the government Is sending a party of expert geologists and topographic en gineers on a midwinter expedition to the tip of Alaska on the Arctic, to survey some 30,000 square miles of uncharted wilderness, rugged moun tain chains and large stretches of undulating treeless plains. A few days ago the geological sur vey told of the plans to send, at the expense of the- navy department. smull party of government technic ians to northern Alaska to survey lands embraced In the navy's largest petroleum reserve, but little could be guthered from the hrlef announce ment as to the hazards and hard ships this little band of men prob ably will face onco It leaves the ice- free harbor of Heward to travel by railroad, boat, dog-sled and canoe with four or five tons of supplies, and before It completes its reconnaisance at Douse Inlet, 25 miles east of Point Harrow. Much of the region south of the reserve already has been surveyed by a party under direction of Dr. Philip 8. Kmlth. leader of the party now on its way to the far north, and por tions east of It also have been exam ined by J. R. Mortie, another mem ber of this winter's expedition The present party, in addition to Dr. timlth and Mertic, will consist of William T. Foron, geologist; Gerald Fitzgerald and R. K. Kent, topo graphic engineers and several assist ants. It will enter the region from the south, starting in midwinter when some of the transportation prob lems are least difficult. It will be left on Its own resources for at least six months, and tons of supplies will have to be transported, mainly -by dog-sled, for 400 miles, even before reaching the reserve. roou crops imiNG misery TO JIIUUUDKS ISLANDERS LONDON Once again the Inhabi tants of the northern Islnnds of the Hebrides, and especially the Islund of Lewis, are bordering on starvation. The Islanders depend mainly upon the food derived from the crops they raise themse-lves, but when the crops fail serious hardships are entailed. This year the trouble came through the destruction of tho crops bv the abnormally wet weather of tho sum mer and autumn. So widespread nnd acute Is the distress that nppeats have been Ituiued in Scotland and elsewhere for assistance. Secured Relief Through Foley PUIs John R. ordon, Danville.

Early In the fifty-first year of its life, Val paraiso University, situated in Val par also, one of northern Indiana's beautiful cities. Is taking steps to cor rect the misinformation sent out last summer that It was about to be taken over "by the Ku Klux Klan. A com mittee; composed of former students, the membership of which Is country wide, is being organized to carry this into effect. On its stationery and in a conspicuous place on every docu ment which the committee, or the university Issues is printed "To per petuate Valparaiso University as great, independent, Impartial, non sectarian, educational Institution, not privately owned, and allied with no lodge; racial group or religious de nomination." Some time ago, wide circulation was given to a statement to the effect that Valparaiso University was about to be taken over by the Ku Klux Klan. This report created indigna tion among former students nnd among friends of the university which had had such a long career of great usefulness. However, the report now seems to have served a good purpose for staunch -friends came to the sup port of the university today nnd there Is every reason to believe that before long it will be re-established in its former glory and that It faces a greater power for educational good than ever. The trustees of Valparaiso Univer sity recently adopted a code of prin clples upon which the institution pro poses to base its future operations. This code proclaims opposition to "any individual, ' group, lodge, church or society which intentionally en deavors to separate our people into class-conscious groups, setting one against the other In promotion of Ku Klux Klan and to mean that hence forth as heretofore Valparaiso Uni versity cannot be named as an edu cational institution controlled by any class organization or any religious sect, but, on the contrary. Is an estab lishment open to the education of nil without thought of race, religion, so cial standing, wealth, politics or in fluence. T. E. McCroskey To Speak at Forum T.

VALLEY FUEL CO. ' . Phono 76 LONDON England has been In terested In a debate as to whether the modern battleship had not been rendered obsolete by the airplane. Admiral Mark Kerr took the affirm ative and Viscount Curzon the nega tive. The decision favored the argu ments of Curzon. The Viscount contended that whether or not the present type of capital ship was obsolete depended on whether the battleship could be de stroyed by under-water boats or .by aircraft. Jutland proved that the bomb and torpedo had not gained as cendancy over the heavy gun. Gun fire had an accuracy far above that of the weapons of submarines or planes. Experiments purporting to show that the big ship was at the mercy of hovering planes had been carried out, but the target ship was ian obsolete one, and the test had been carried out In fair weather and perfect water. The battleship still re mained the greater factor of naval strength. "Admiral Kerr's suggested large aircraft carrier," Viscount Curzon said, "was Just as vulnerable as the big battleship, which after all, could have Its protective seaplanes."
