...Ambulance Committee for the benefit of the American Ambulance Service in Europe. These are the first French films to come to this country. They show not only the American Ambulance in action, but also the armies on the western front and many struggles and battlefields familiar to Americans through press dispatches. Fort Douaumont, the battle of the Ancre, and the Allied Armies at Salonika are all shown, and the famous "tanks" are seen in action...
...loosely played game. The contest was played on the Freshman diamond, as a new wire backstop is being erected on the University field. Errors were frequent for both sides, McLeod in particular having an off day in the field, with three misplays marked against him.

Military information of importance may be withheld from an enemy by the publication of dispatches in this form, but they will look queer until we get used to them: "Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 30.--Mr. Bryan said today: "The -- is cast. From this moment we are all--. Our shores were invaded at dawn. Before sunset one--volunteers will spring to arms.'" Dashes are less cumbersome than (word or words...
