in serious trouble regarding the

September 18th, it tho report is cor
J rect that Barton has broken fing-
er aaa cannot catch on that day.
All this is in accordance with his
own pro position at the conference
held a couple of days ago. His own
proposition has turned against him.
\ When the representatives Of the
& two teams met in Philadelphia and
the agreement for the big game WAS
drawn up and the cash deposited,
Z $500 for each team, Mr.. Frysinger
secuted the idea Of man being in

positively insisted that but ten men
be named. 10 this the Brandywine
representatives demurreI and the
conference came to an end dur

The Br lndywine men wanted to
name at least two men on the bench
for each team, which would have

the game.
