n. |. PROBLEMS
ARE Up TODAY
Business Men Discussing
Baseball Issues at Session
Meeting Wednesday.

Members of the Grand Forks and
East Grand Forks Merchants associa-
ton are meeting today at the Column
bia hotel. when together with the
other matters Of business. the propo-
sition of supporting a professional
baseball club in Grand Forks in con-
nection with the Northern league cir
cult, will be taken up.
Indications are that the business
men will back up the movement to
replace Grand Forks on the athletic
map again this spring, as several
have already voluntarily offered their
support and assured the club Of con-
siderable backing financially. From
every section Of the city, the cry for
baseball Is being heard and 1t is now
certain that Grand Forks will be rep
resented on the four team circuit.
Those who are backing the move
ment are not willing to take the re-
sponsibility upon their own shoulders,
however. as there is nothing to be
gained from an individual standpoint.
and unless the fans want team, the
proposition will be thrown to the dis
card
A big mass meeting will be called
Wednesday evening in the CONNER
cial club rooms when every fan in
both Grand Forks and East Grand
Forks will be given an opportunity
to express their views. offer sugges-
tions or explain why a team should
not be accepted here.

Bearish Interpretation Of Washing
ton advices on the days developments
favored the bulls, especially reports
that q German raider had been sunk
and that in Nebraska the winter crop
was imperiled by extreme cold
weather and ice-covered fields.
Corn duplicated the action Of
wheat. Country offerings were linn
tied. Oats trade included liberal pur-
chases for export. Price changes,
however, depended on the course Of
other cereals. !
Increased arrivals Of hogs acted az
a weight on provisions. Declines that
resulted were checked by support

The Phi Delta-Budge game was q
real scrap from the first whistle, Both
teams entered the contest with a clean
record and determination to win.
In the first few minutes of play, how
ever, the Bulge teams forged ahead,

which kept their opponents at bay

by the Bulge guards.
For the winners, Weis and McCor-
mack were the best point getters, each
negotiating two baskets. Moore and
Westagaard each contributed one.
Fingarson and McCutcheon each
made two baskets for the Phi Delts
and Lowe one. The loss of Lowe in
the last few minutes of play crippled
the Phi Delta Theta men considerable
and made the task of defeating them
less difficult.
Methodists Smothered.
In one Of the most one-sided con-
tests Of the league, the Rufnex came
back strong after suffering two de-
feats and smothered the Sayre hall

WASHINGTON. Nov. 22.-The State
Department asserted to-day it had no
confirmation of the reported proposal

eminent or the Entente.
Il was made plain also, in contra
diction OF rumors that Colonel House
at the Paris inter-Allied conference
would propose a revision Of the Allies
war aims, that this government would
favor no such undertaking at this
time. but would follow the course in
dicated by Secretary Lansing at the
time of the arrival of the House mis-
sion in Europe, to the effect that the
conference was war conference and
would concern itself solely with mat
tiers pertaining to the successful con-
duct of the war. This statement, re-
peated to-day. was taken 10 intimate
that the United States would not con-
slider the Bolsheviki's demand for a
revision of the Allies war aims.

day whether Russia would be repre-
scented at the Paris conference, nor the
exact date when the conference would
