APPONAUG

The position OF the Warwick Town
Council on the question OF license in the
town was presented concisely in the re-
mark of President Barber at the spe-
cial meeting held at the Town Hail.
Apponaug. yesterday afternoon.
President Barber stated that the Town
Sergeant, on order of the Town Council,
had made an examination of the saloons
In the town and that the Sergeant had
reported that but few of the saloons were
conforming to the law. The President
stated that while this report was so, the
Council had decided TO grant licenses cx-
cort where there II a remunstrance with
the understanding that all saloons will be
put In condition TO meet the requirements
of the law. Failure to do so will result
in the forfeiture of the licenses. Presi-
dent Barber also says; Saloons must
be kept closed on Sundays. Licenses
will be revoked for all such infractions :"
The applications of the saloon keepers
in Apponaug were granted, and the resi-
dents of Apponaug look to the same con-
ditions on Sunday as have existed in the
village for years past. BY enforcing the
laws in Apponaug the members OF the
Town Council will prove TO the people
that they are not controlled by the Re-
publican machine. 1t has been stated
throughout the village during the last
week that 1t made no difference what

PENN CAPTURES ANNUAL
GAME WITH CORNELL, 12-4

Philadelphia. Nov. 29.-History repeated
itself on Franklin field yesterday after
noon. for Pennsylvania again won the an
nual football game with Cornell. the score
this time being IL TO 4. IL was Pennsylva-
MAS 18th victory In Is games with the
Ithacans, the New York state team hay-
ing won one contest and tied another.
The game was finely played there being
many spectacular features which were
greatly enjoyed by nearly 5000 persons
who filled the big stands. Cornell fully ex-
pected to win. The team had a good sea-
sons record. the men were trained 10 the
hour and il was expected that Pennsyl-
vania, which had been little erratic this
year, would not be able TO Withstand the
aggressive tactics OF the Comedians. So
full OF confidence was Cornell that her
supporters turned the tide of betting in
her favor.
But the teams were not on the field
five minutes before IL was seen that Penn
sylvania barring accidents and flukes.
was likely TO win. The team went at Cor
nell hammer and tongs from the start
and all during the first half the play was
close TO Cornells goal. The score in the
first half--6 to 0-does not indicate Penn
sylvanias strength in that period. Twice
the Pennsylvanians carried the ball over
the Cornell line by hard work, only TO
have the touchdowns disallowed because
of holding. Once they lost the ball two
feet from the goal on downs. and another
time when the ball was only two yards
from a score they were again penalized
for holding.
In this half they were penalized 75
yards and held Cornell on first down.
Pennsylvania clearly outplayed Cornell In
this half and yet, owing TO her holding
proclivities. was able TO make but one
touchdown.

Conditions were practically reversed I'm
the second half. although Pennsylvania
made another touchdown TO a field goal
by Cornell. In this half the Ithacans
seemed to gain strength and several
times they endangered the Pennsylvania
goal.
Pennsylvania principal play was the
forward pass. which she worked almost TO
perfection. Keinath. the crack basketball
player. was accurate in his throwing. and
a Pennsylvania man was usually on the
spot 10 receive the ball Keinath and
Pauxtis had been practicing the play and
had it down 10 fine point. II was by
this play that the Quakers were able 10

had slipped and fallen into the
