according to Mr. Hurley. The two
most important fights now being wag-
ed by the Choctaws are to prevent the
re-opening OF the tribal rolls. which
would admit possibly 3O,O00 people
now seeking citizenship in the tribe
and another contest to be waged IN an
effort to have the government Way the

According to Mr.. Hurley there are

actions touching upon the proposition
for nearly sixty years past In 1855

to the government more than 7,0OO,-
000 acres OF land commonly known as
the LEASED district" to enable the

9sth and Tooth meridians or the Texas
state line, and the Canadian and Red
rivers, a vast territory now including
large portion OF the railroad lands,
incorporated towns and industrial
communities OF the present state Of
Oklahoma.
President Harrison construed the
conveyance Of the land by the Choc-
taws 10 be deed to the land. yet the
Indians were never paid for that vast
estate. AZ the price OF 1925 an acre,
moderate price for the land at the

 IN SHELTERED CoVES
Coach Cook We'll Satisfied With Var sity's Showins-Freshman Captain from Kansas City.

The water was so rough on the Thames Thursday afternoon that the Yale crews were obliged to get what practice they could in the sheltered coves around Gales Ferry. The varsi- ty eight made several spins of hall mile at a stretch at a fairly high stroke. Dr. Richard Harrison, Yale, 1876. a classmate of Bob Cook, was a visitor at the camp, as was also Goet- chius, who rowed in the 1897 varsity eight
 Robert J. Cook, the Yale crew coach. stated Thursday morning that the time made over the course "Wednesday evening showed improvement by the varsity eight, but he declined to am nounce any figures. He denied that the crew were pressed to anything like their limit According to the famous coach, the driving of the eight for speed will be reserved for the last week before the race, and next week the stroke will be sent up to above 30,
 The eight mile spin taken by the freshmen Wednesday evening was the first test of the endurance of the 1915 squad They have not once raced the varsity over the two mile course since the crews came to Gales Ferry, but several brushes will be. arranged be- fore practice closes next week Satur- day
