FOOT BALL SCANDAL IN WEST.
Missouri Collegians Plan to Divide
Receipts of Saturdays Game.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, December g.
Christian Brothers College will play
Rolla School of Mines eleven for the
foot ball championship of Missouri here
next Saturday despite threats and pro-
tests by the board of curators of the
University of Missouri, of which the
Rolla School is branch.
Announcement that Christian Broth
ers College would permit it's team to
play the eleven from Rolla was made
last night by officials of the local school
a few hours after they had declared the
game would not be permitted because
of the danger of a break in the friendly
relations between the schools.
The change in their decision was
forced by the declaration of the local
team that it would play whether the
faculty Of Christian Brothers COLES e
sanctioned the game or not. The Rolla
men have been threatened with ex-
pulsion from the State University for
signing individual contracts to play
the Christian Brothers. The chief OBJ
lection to the game, according to DIR.
s. L. Baysinger, member of the board
of curators of the University of Mis-
souri,, is that the Rolla players plan
to divide a portion of the gate receipts
among themselves.
c. c. Bland, student manager of the
Rolla team, last night denied that the
foot ball players intended dividing a
portion of the games proceeds among
themselves. He declared that Rolla' S
entire share of money would be de-
voted to charity at Rolla.

mo Discredit in Defeat by Such a
Team" Says Capt. Fullam.

ANNAPOLIS, December 3.-Capt. Will
liam F. FuIlam, superintendent of the
Naval Academy, has written the fol-
lowing letter to the superintendent of
the Military Academy in reference to
Saturdays service contest in Phila-
delphia:
Col. C. p. Townsley. U. S. A, Superin-
tendent United States Military
Academy. West Point. n. Y.
Ny Dear Townsley: IN behalf Of the
officers and the regiment of midship-
men with the Naval Academy l wish to
congratulate you and the corps of cadets
at West Point upon the well earned vic
tory of your team and upon the skill
and generalship displayed by one and
all OF them at the game on Franklin
Field last Saturday. There is no dis
credit attached to the defeat by such
team as yours. and it is a pleasure
TO accord them well merited praise In
all the contests between West Point
and the Naval Academy, no matter
which side may win, the spirit of gen.
erous rivalry, good fellowship and
mutual respect which should ever exist
between the army and navy will al
ways survive the healthy excitement OF
a friendly battle which each team
seeks by all fair means TO win.
With warm personal regards, believe
me always sincerely yours
