Hinkey's Friends Want
Him as Assistant Coach
Special TO the Tslsgroth

New Haven, Conn, Dec. 27.-Franll
Hinkey, Nale's head coach, who was
dropped in midseason last Fall, yes
terday discussed football affairs for
the first time.
He insisted that he had never taken
part in football politics and that he
was not in the confidence Of the pres
ent men who are in charge of Yale
football aGairs.
1t was learned that Hinkey's friends
will urge that he be retained at Yale
next Fall as assistant coach. His Yale
contract has another year to run.
Hinkey said
'"The politics and partialities in re-
gard to Yale football have never in
terested me in the least. have kept
my hands out of them entirely. AS to
what the policy is of those who con-
troll Yale football ! am not informed.
don't even know that they have any.
All I know is that I was engaged at a
fixed salary, just like you or anyone
else. l look at the matter purely as
a business proposition"
When asked whether he expected
to return next year and fulfill his con-
tract, which has another year to run,
he declared that it was not a ques-
ton for him to decide.
1t is a business agreement, and if
those behind the screens of Yale foot
ball want him to come back and as
sist he will do so.

ARREST COLLEGE
ATHLETE AS SPY
Bill Hough, Former Penn Star,
Is Caught in Italy With
Camera and Drawings
Special to The Telegraph


Philadelphia, Dec 27.-The Italian
government is beginning to have a
wholesome respect for college athletes
since William Hough. eX-football, bas-
ketball and track star at the University
of Pennsylvania, was arrested on a
train near Rome, charged with being q
spy, according to a letter received here
from DR.. Eugene S. Mccartney, for
merly an instructor in Latin at the
university, who is now classical fellow
of the American Academy in Rome.
Hough. who was graduated from the
architectural department of the uni
versity in 1911. was among the Ameri-
can students who had thrilling war
zone experiences, DIR. Mccartney says.
At Capua he took pictures of things in
teresting architecturally and then
boarded train for Casino. On the
train he was interviewed by four
Italian soldiers and had apparently
given good account of himself, DR..
Mccartney writes, but upon reaching
his destination he found twelve for
notwithstanding carabinieri awaiting
him.
Protests of No Avail
Hough protested vigorously against
his arrest but nevertheless he was
marched, bag and baggage, up the
main street, the carabinieri following
him, with their bayonets threatening
w PSA IVA ehNS iilill CT SNGly SUPP mttt4l-
time a crowd began to trail In the
wake.
At the station house he was searched
vigorously. His architectural draw
ings were sufficiently discriminating,
but when the officials fished out his
camera the evidence was conclusive
and he was placed in jail
His films were developed at once,
but were found harmless While
awaiting a reply to a telegram to
Rome Hough spent eight hours look
ing through little hole in the door.
Morning came. but Hough received
no telegram. Then he began to call
to his aid his choicest Italian rhetoric
and to smile his most persuasive smile.
As a result he was allowed to go at
tended to the monastery at Monte Cas-
sino TO dine. At o'clock in the
afternoon the longed-for telegram
came and Hough made good use of
track experience in getting to the
station.

you might say" answered Uncle
Harry. THE Nice-President refers the
bill to the proper Senate committee,
which studies il and refers it back to
the Senate, with note telling the
Senate what changes it thinks ought
to be made. Then the Senate debates
it just as the. House did, and votes
upon 1t.
Probably the Senate has changed
the bill in several particulars. If this
is the case the bill is referred back
to the House. Then three members
of the House confer with three of the
Senators selected by the Vice-Presi-
dent. At this conference the wishes
of the House and of the Senate are
harmonized, each body yielding a little
to permit a settlement. Both the
House and the Senate then pass the
revised bill, and it is sent to the White
House for the Presidents signature"
Il should think" remarked Jimmy,
that If each house has to yield a lit
tie to reach an agreement. it would
ask for things in the bill that it didn't
really want so that it could give up
those things and keep in the bill the
things it really wants"
Uncle Harry laughed. That's ex-
actiy what they do" he said.
And when the President signs the
bill, does it become a law" asked
Joe.
Yes" replied Uncle Harry. ''It even
becomes law without his signature at
the end of ten days, unless he vetoes
it within that time"
What is 'hlibustering' p" asked
Jimmy
We'll, you HAVE been reading the
papers, haven't you? ?'' said Uncle
Harry, smiling. "Filibustering is the
same thing as playing for time: you
know what that is on the football
field? If Congress is approaching ad-
1ournment and an important bill is be-
fore 1t, the members opposed to 1t
sometimes try to prevent its passage
by keeping on talking. You know that
once member of the Senate has the
floor he must be allowed to keep it
until he has finished speaking. A
member opposed to the bill talks and
talks until he is ready to drop; then
at signal one of his colleagues takes
up the address. And so, by keeping it
up until Congress adjourns-some-
times for days at a time-the oppo-
nents or the bill keep it from coming
as good as voting 1t down"
How many bills are made law?"
asked Joe.
About one-fifteith of those which
are proposed, and of these the great
majority are for the relief of indi-
Viduals. Only a few hundred public
laws are passed by each Congress.
II there are two kinds of laws.
Federal laws, and State laws" said
Joe should think that often one
law would tell you to do one thing
and the other law would tell YOU to
do Just the opposite thing"
Ihat would be the case" an
swered Uncle Harry, as he rose to
leave, If the Constitution of the

touches on the desolation of the city.
The Constitutionalist officers, or
most of them. in control of Mexico at
the present time are carousing, ven-
turesome, fighting crowd, who know
no peaceful pursuit Most of them
have no education.
Textile factories. one of Mexico's
richest industries, have been destroyed
or Shutdown for a long period. Sugar
and mine properties are not being
worked in full. Crops have been con-
fiscated and little planting has been
done.
The Carranza authorities have been
active in forcing the banks to guaran-
tee their notes with currency. Foreign
capital is no friend of Carranza be-
cause of his many DEGREES.
Many new kinds of taxes have been
clapped on or are planned, as Car
rama is desperately in need of funds.
The saloons have not obeyed the de-
cree to move, paying heavy tribute to
stay where they are.

out of college and scholastic athletics.
There can be no honesty in sports
where wire pulling is necessary to keep
a man in his position. Frank Hinkey
may have failed in his efforts to pro-
duce the goods at Yale, but he is a
good man, and IL left alone, would
prove IT.
The only sport in college athletics
that has no championship this year is
baseball. Harvard defeated Yale and
Princeton and shared honors with
Brown, Tufts and West Point.
Further evidence that Harrisburg
can cope with the best basketball
teams in the State came Saturday.
when the local Independents defeated
Wilkes Barre. To win from the Coal
Barons means to play superior basket
ball. Harrisburg's five did that. There
is no team of tossers in Pennsylvania,
that has heretofore shown as good
work against Wilkes Barre, as the ag-
gresation managed by Horace Geisel.

Lew Ritter to Represent Harris

harrisburg will be strong bidder
for a New York State League fran
ehise. according to local reports. The
league meets at Utica, January 4. and
it is understood three franchises will
be placed on the market. Lew Ritter
will represent this city at the meeting.
It is said Utica, Troy and Albany
are ready to quit. 1t is the belief
that no matter what may happen in
baseball, these towns will not be able
to make a financial success with base
ball. Utica was up in the race, but
could not make ends meet
Allentown, Reading, Bethlehem and

nikely that any definite decision will be
Preached at the annual meeting, as all
