FRANCIS MARION CHAPTER ,ND. A. I


 The Trancis Marion Chapter, D. A. R., was beautifully entertained yes- terday afternoon at Oak Park by Mrs. Harvey E. Jones. in celebration Of Flag Day. t
 The pavilion was appropriately dec- orated with festoons of red and white bunting and numbers of flags.
 During the afternoon. delicious rec treatments were served by Misses Mary Manly Fillmore, Marian Black. Margar- ct Anderson of North Carolina. and Miss Laura Jones.
 The chief feature of the program was an entertaining talk on the American Flag" by Hon. John H. Wallace. Jr.
 MT. Wallace told of how the oldest probably the oldest banner in exist ence. is the banner which Cortez used In his conouests of Mexico. The old- est American flag in existence was designed in England in 1860. and is now in the Public Library of Bedford. Mass.
 m the earliest days of the Revofus ton each colony had flag of its own, and these continued in use until a common flag, representing a new na- lion. was established.
 The Betsy Ross flag of thirteen stars and thirteen stripes was adopted yune I4. f77s.
 MT. w AhAduS spOhS p0AuliluAig OA Ouf flag and said: 'fWhen the Amefican flag stands out in it's majesty and suprem- acy. It means to the people of the United States that the stars In our lag represent the grandest aggregation of States that were ever banded together for mutual protection; the white typi- nes the purity of the purposes of ths American Patriots; the blue. our citi- gems are loyal and true to the spirit of our free institutions; the red. our gallant men will pour out their hearts dearest blood In the defence of our country"
 Mir. Wallace concluded his speech with a short sketch of the life of Francis Marion, for whom the chapter Is. named. and closed with Marfon's last words: Thank God. can lay my hand on my heart and say that since came to mans estate. have never done an intentional wrong to any"

RADICAL CHANGES in
THE PRINCETON POLICY
Roper to Be Present at Tomor-
rows Meeting OF "Grad"
Athletic Committee.
PRINCETON. Dec. 1.


u ADICAL changes in Princeton's
football administrative policy arc
expected to take place at a meet
ing Of the graduate athletic committee
here tomorrow, at which william w.
Roper, '92, formerly head coach, will be
present. There is every assurance here
that he will resign from the position of
head coach at the University of Mis-
souri,. where he has just closed a very
successful season, and take charge of
things here.
The vacancy in the committee caused
by the death Of Cornelius c. Cuyler, 10,
will be filled by election. 1t is said that
on cceun of business reasons Tracey
Harris will offer his resignation. If
there are two vacancies Roper and
either King or Booth, who had charge
on the gridiron this fall, may be placed
on the committee.
There is little doubt that the 'trium-
virate'' scheme of control of the football
situation will be abandoned, in line with
the suggestions made last week by
Henry in a public letter. What win be
done with Henry's two colleagues OF
the triumvirate, Philip King and Walter
G. Booth, 100, has not yet been de-
cided. At any rate there will De one
man control, so far as the coaching is
concerned, and 1t is pretty well under
stood that Roper is the n a
The meeting will be important in that
an early start in planning all the de-
tails of next years work will be made.
It is likely that the faculty will be rep
resented, and Captain Hart will be
