- AMERICANS TAKE MORE i HONORS THAM ENGLISH Rhodes Scholars From This Country Win More Firsts and Seconds CONCORD, N. H., Feb. 5. A com that narison of records : which - shows merican Rhodes scholars take more firsts and seconds in the honor schools f oxford university than the English lienor men is contained in a statistical study of tne work the American scholars published in the January num ter f the. American Oxonian, issued todnv. ' This magazine is;edited by prof! Frank Aydelotte, American sec retary of the Rhode scholarships. The study of the Rhodes scholarships rfcords was prepared by Prof. R. W. Urpcss of Brown university. In it are follorted for the first time facts con cerning these men, their preparation tn the United States, their records at Oxford and their careers -since their return. About four-fifths of the men take the Oxford B. A. decree in one of the Anal honor schools and one-fifth take research degrees. Although the Amer-i icans lead the English honor men in tirsts and seconds, their standing is not hiiih as that or the EJngnsn scholar ship men who are trained from their imblic school days in the type of work r.nresonted by Oxford examinations. Five hundred odd Rhodes scholars have been appointed from the United States, representing 172 American col ipcps and universities. At Oxford one- lialf of them studied law, one-sixth modern- history or economics, one sixth humanities, including classics and Knglish literature, and the re niainder studied a wide range of pro fesional and cultural subejets. Of those who had a year or more at Oxford before the war, 70 per "cent rnresented their colleges on one of th various athletic teams. Fourteen er cent represented Oxford against fambridKe in athletics. i More than one-third of the scholars on their return to this country have irnnp into university or college teach insr about one-fourth are practicing law more than 10 per cent are in bus mess and the others have engaged in government service, social and relig ious work, medicine, scientific, literary and editorial occupations. Trofessor Burgess points out that the expectation of Cecil Rhodes, found er of the scholarships, "or at least of some of the early writers on the sub ject." was that the Rhodes scholars would enter politics "in the English FPnse" or go into the diplomatic ser vice. ' Rut neither of these lines," says Professor Burgess, "affords, a career in the United States for a man with his own way to make; the organisation of the diplomatic service rather than the scholars of the scholarship plan is to blame for the imperfect fulfillment of early expectations." VOLCANO VERY ACTIVE IN THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS 11ILO. Island of Hawaii. Dec. 3. (Correspondence Associated Press). Kllauea, the great Active volcano 32 miles from this city, which for the past two years has been exhibiting tremen dous volcanic force, recently overflow ed the rim of its active -throat and "burst foHh' In'rresTi'actrvity arid bril liance.

ANCIEXT SKULLS DISCOVERED IN A CAVE IN PHILIPPINES MANILA, Dec. 10. (Correspondence Associated Press). Nearly fifty skulls, believed to have belonged to people who inhabited the Island of Masbate, one of the Philippine. group just south of the island of Luzon, at a much ear lier period than the present Filipino race, were found In a cave recently on that island by Dr. W. D. Smith,, chief of the mines division of the bureau of cinee of the Philippine government.

Y. P. U. CONVENTION IN CHARLOTTE, JUNE 14-16 Already the Program Is Being Prepared for It (Special to The Star) ; SANFORD, Feb. 5. On to Charlotte! is now the slogan among the Baptist young people of the state, who meet In their eleventh' annual convention In the Queen City June 14-16.

ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP THE CRAVEN COUNTY SHERIFF (Special to The Star) NEW BBRJJ. Feb. 5. An attempt to hold up Sheriff J. D.

The sheriff slouched down in his seat and opened' 'er wide, and succeeded in going through some pretty bad mud holes in safety. This move on the, part of un known law-breakers seems to be close ly related to the anonymous threats received in letters recently by the sheriff. : - , - " .'
