This statement is not well receiy-
ed by the boys who claim that foot
ball to them Is half of school life and
that considering the fact that they
are forced to maintain a high stand

they should be allowed to play foot

serious, as the board Is determined to

where the matter was fully discussed
to the disadvantage ot football.

Arthur Chapman, tullback of tho
1872 Flyer team, said this morning:
"Footbal is the greatest attraction FOR
the high school. We boys work hard
in our studies in order to play on the
team and as far as six or eight teams
in one school Is concerned, that is inn
possible as there would be no rivalry
and the thing would die out soon. As
it has been all who want to can play
football and a second and third tesm
Is often possible, but one good team
to represent the school and meet the
teams from other schools puts Zest

great anticipation for the players as
well as the lovers of football who do
not play. 1t is hard enough to get
one really fast team out of a school
the size OF Grand Jrnction without
talking OF having six or eight.
Il for one am strictly against the
decision and every high school boy |
have talked with is OF the same opin-
ion and | say that the killing of the
acknowledged leader in college and
high school sports will mean great
loss to schools
1t is not known how the school
board will meet the strenuous resist

praised of II. but there is no doubt
that the ultimatum has stirred up

Washington, Aug. 23.-President
Wilson has granted permission for
the expectation of 1000 rifles and
100000 cartridges to the Huerts gov
ernment, and all but 1000 rifles,
which will go to Vera Cruz from
New Orleans, will be shipped from

Although this was the first per

declared that no change had been
made in the policy of the govern
Hent. The officials pointed out that
the neutrality proclamation permit
ted the president to authorize ship
ments at his discretion.
Unofficially, ii is said that the ad-

Washington, Aug. 2S.-Develop-
ments in the Mexican situation are
moving swiftly today toward the
point which officials expected to de-
termine whether the president should
read his special message to congress
next Tuesday Direct advices from
Mexico City were to the effect that
Huerta might wish to reconsider his
rejection of the American proposals
before President Wilson laid the ne
gotiations before the world. This
has changed the situation and the
presidents plans are now contingent
upon moves made in the next few
hours.
The president interrupted the work
on his message long enough today to
get a few hours recreation at golf.
Suggestions have been made to the
Washington government indicating a
tendency on the part of the Haerta
officials to delay the issue. 1t is un-
derstood that Huerta is considering
the sending of an envoy, probably
Foreign Minister Gamboa, to Wash
ington to confer with President Will
son in the came manner as Lind con-
ferred with Hserta.
That the American government
will not yield from the position that
Huerta must be eliminated as a fac
tor in the situation is likely to be
made plain to the Mexico City admin
istration before Gamboa comes. so his
mission would constitute supple
mentary procedure to bring about
such an understanding.
