BROTHERS ONCE MORE.
Dartmouth and Williams Colleges
 Resume Athletic Relations.

Athletic relations between Dart mouth and Williams, which have been suspended for about year have been resumed. A letter received from the secretary of the Dartmouth athletic council at Williams, propos- ing the resumption of the former re- latiops, was answered in the same spirit by the Williams athletic coun- cil, and as a result the two colleges will probably meet next fall in foot ball. Relations were severed a year ago by order of the Dartmouth ath- letic council after the basketball game in the Williams gymnasium. Differences arose at that time be- tween players on the floor in which blows are said to have been struck, and after an investigation Dartmouth declined to figure further in athletic contests with Williams.

WRESTLING.
Joe Rogers Much Disappointed
 Man.

London. Dec 21.-George Hacken- schmidt, the Russian Lion" champion of the world, has. it is understood, sidestepped a match with Tom o. Rourkes giant protege, Joe Rogers, the American Apollo"
 O'Rourke has been so insistent that Hackenschmidt, driven to the wall, yesterday signed articles to wrestle Zbysco. but stipulates the match is ont to take place inside of six months. He will not, naturally, take Rogers on before. He figures, it is thought, that Rogers cannot afford to wait here six months for a chance to meet him and the steps taken yesterday indicate that the Russian Lion' is really afraid tO tackle Rogers.
 Hackenschmidt and ZbyscO signed yesterday afternoon to wrestle catch as catch can style for the champion ship title of the world, and each man posted forfeit There was also made a side bet of $1,OO0 between them. Hackenschmidt in furtherance of his plan not to meet the American on the mat announced yesterday that he would never wrestle Graeco- Roman style again. and would resign all claim to the title of champion for that style of wrestling.
 ZbyscO knows little Of wrestling catch as catch can style and will have to do some hard work preparing for his match with Hackenschmidt.
 Tom O'ROurke is keenly disappoint- ed at Hackenschmidt's refusal to wrcstle Rogers He has not yet in- dicated whether he will try further to fnree Hackppschmidt into match. or return to the United States with Rogers. Should he decide on the lat ter he will challenge Hackenschmidt to meet Rogers when the Russian | Lion visits AmeTira next year. as he plans to do.
 Rogers has not lost track of what he can do in the prize ring. and O-Rourke may now try to send him against the tOpnotrhers in the heavy weight class. here and in Ireland. TleTp is a growing conviction here \ that CiaFleS Cochran. manager for ] ZbySrn. is also managing Hacken- sehmidt's wrestling affairs. and that ] lr intends taking tl5p Russian and ZI,yS-o to the United States for ex- hihitiou puTI-rSes. posing gf course ss manager only fer Zl,yseO.

 The following officers have been elected for 1908 by Emerson Il. Lis cum camp, U. s. w. w.: Commander, Joseph Monaga!. senior vice-com- mander, Joseph Healion; junior vice. commander, Frank O'Rourke; officer of the day, Edward Theroux; officer of the guard, Benjamin Levin; chap lain, Olin Johnson; surgeon, Edward Scheilke. The commander-elect ap- pointed Charles Elwood to be ad- jutant and Adolph King as quarter master. Word was received that the department officers would visit Wa terbury January 10, 1908, to install the local officers. An open meeting will be held on that occasion. Con- rade Olan F. Johnson has received his appointment as aide de camp to the department commander.
 Business was rushing in lodge work last night. Half q dozen courts of Foresters met, some to chose officers and physicians, and others to talk mat ters over and see what was best to do. The only trouble on hand now regarding physicians, is which to se- lect. It has been practically decided that for the present at least, it isn't wise to bring ill over four doctors from out of town, and as these have been picked from fifteen or twenty who have expressed a desire to locate here, naturally there is little feel ing in some quarters because others didn't happen to be called, but this was unavoidable. The committee didn't think it wise to bring ill more than they felt they needed, but if it be shown later on that four is not suf- ticient, the number will be increased.

FOGLER AND MORAN.
Said to Have Had a Break-Moran
 Has a New Partner, Lawson.

After riding two six day races to- gether, Joe Folger and James Moran, the bicycle riders, have had a split ill their camp, and henceforth will travel in separate paths. It is said that remarks made by Moran after the New York race to the effect that he could have made better finish, led up to hot words between the two and that they parted very unfriendly. In the Boston six day race they rode to- gether as they did in the New York grind. and from the good feeling that seemed to prevail between them it was taken for granted that they would go on teaming up together indefinitely.
 Moran, it is said, has signed with another crack for the Boston 24 hour team race that starts on Christmas eve, and that this new partner of his will be Iver Lawson, of Chicago.
