initial season as coach OF the Boston
college football team, Charley Brickley,
the former Harvard star, has been signed
/ TO another contract continuing his serv-
! ice at this institution for a period of two
/ wears longer. The only games which

| With only two more games on their
schedule the Boston college players are
in hopes to close the season with no oth-
er defeats, as the game next Saturday is
| with Polytechnic and on Thanksgiving
day against Holy Cross.
Four of the five members of the Amer

Andy Ward are supposed to be on the
vessel, Ted Meredith having stayed in
England to complete business deal.

which Vermont can boast of in the ring

a hard beating in the 18th and sth

A great deal is expected from the

Washington, Nov. l6.--The representa-
tions by the United States to Germany
regarding the deportation of Belgian
workmen were made in behalf of the Bel
gian government, of which the American
ambassador is the official representative
in Berlin, it was announced at the state
department yesterday.
I'VE have made no protest." Secretary
Lansing said. "To create the impression
that we have protested would embarrass
us in our relations with other govern
ments. We represent Belgium and acted
on behalf of the Belgians in presenting
their case to Germany. We would do
the same thing for any other country
whose interests we represented"
The instructions to Secretary Grew Of
the embassy in Berlin were in the form
of memora ndum based on two main ar
guments;
|. The inhumanity of the deporta-
tions.
2. The unfortunate effect they would
have upon neutral nations, particularly
the people of the United States
However anxious this government
might have been to make such repre-
sensations on the ground of humanity,
it is not so likely we would have done
so were we not representing Belgium's
interests officially" one high official of
the state department said 1.-THE practice
of deportation is in itself not necessarily
without international precedent to sane
ton it, 1t is often more the purpose
and the methods employed which cannot
be condoned from the standpoint of hui

 On Saturday night of last week, however, the Peoples Bank declined to take any new deposits. Asked why this step was being taken if the bank was not going to dissolve MT. Stearns would advance no reason other than that the officials did not want to ac- cept any more. Further than that he would make no comment. It is be- lieved, however, that some change is about to take place.
 It was stated this afternoon by a man prominent in banking circles that there is not much doubt that the Peoples Bank is going out of business and it is understood that the Burritt Savings Bank is to take over its business.
