tons, offered excuses and proposed
that they donate $500 to the Red Cross

COUNTY BOARD
OF EDUCATION
Holds Regular Monthly Meeting
Awards Contract But Takes
No Action On Holidays
SCHOLARSHIP AWARDED

The Board of Education, of Anne
Arundel county, met Thursday in reg
ular session. Owing to severe spell
of sickness, Mr.. George T. Melvin was
absent Judge Watkins and Mr. Mum
roe were present.
After hearing and approving the
minutes of the previous meeting, the
board transacted the following busi-
ness.
Mr.. George Davidson, of st. Marga-
rets, was awarded the contract to fur
nish all the schools in his neighbor-
hood, with wood at $12 per cord, cut
and delivered.
Messrs. Wilson Taylor, Frank Way
son, and c. c. Leitch, were appointed
trustees of the Jewell school, Mr. Mel
son was appointed trustee of the Dor
sey school; Messrs. George Cook
Charles Calvert and Daniel Corey
were appointed trustees of the Rock

Acting upon the suggestion of DR.

NAVAL ACADEMY
MEETS OPERATORS
Strong Service Team Meets Midship-
men, But All Look Good Until
After The Game

The service football teams do not
suffer for lack of press agent work,
and the eleven of the Naval Operating
Base at Hampton Roads, which OPP
pose the midshipment this afternoon,
is no exception. That overworked
phrase, IAN aggregation of old college
stars. has been used to describe the
visitors, as it has in the case of nearly
every other naval team in the country.
They all look good until they strike
Dobie's eleven or some other real col
lege team, and then ii is generally
demonstrated that a team made up OF
strong individual players who have
learned football at different places,
seldom class up with team that takes
instruction from one source and has
competent coach.
However, the Naval Base team does
appear to have something on the other
teams which have played here this
season. They defaeted the Newport
Training Station by 10 to 6, though the
midshipmen won by 56 to 6. They also
defeated the Philadelphia Marines and
tied with the Charlestown Navy Yard.
This is the way the Naval Academy
team will start: Left end, Sniyely;
left tackle: Scaffe; left guard, Saun-
ders; center, Arthur; right guard,
Perry; right tackle, King; right end,
Even; quarterback, Rawlings; left
halfback, Benoist; right halfback, But

GERMANY WON'T QUIT;
PRINCE MAX RESIGNS
Foch Gives Them Until Monday
To Decide Upon Armis-
tice Terms
COURIER STARTS BACK

An official note issued in Paris yes
terday afternoon says:
The German delegates arrived this
morning at Marshal Foch's headquar-
ters. They made formal demand for
an armistice The text of the condi-
tions of the Allies was read and de-
livered to them. They asked for ces-
sation of arms. 1t was refused them.
The enemy has seventy-two hours to
answer"
1t was announced later that the Ger
man demand for cessation of hostili-
ties was for an immediate suspension.
Stress is laid by the Temps on the
presence of Emperor William at Spa,
where the terms of the armistice are
to be examined by the Germans.
The journey of the German cour-
ier to Spa and return will require far
more time than the distances indicate
because of the difficulties of the roads
under present conditions. Therefore
the receipt of the German reply is
likely to be delayed number of hours
beyond the time possible under normal
conditions
American Representatives Present.
The delegates sent to the French
front to receive from Marshal Foch
the allied terms for an armistice
crossed the allied line near La Capelle
last night. They arrived at the place
indicated by the allied supreme COM
mand within the French lines about 2
O'Clock this morning and passed the
remainder of the night there. They
were taken to a house where prepara-
tions had been made to receive them.
Delegates We're BIindfOlded.
Describing the arrival of the Ger
man ENJOYS at the French lines, the
Intransigeant says that the automo-
biles carried white flags and were pre-
ceded by trumpeter Some French
soldiers under an officer approached
them on the road just outside the lines
The delegates established their
identity and showed their credentials
The eyes of the members of the Ger
man party were then blindfolded and
the delegates proceeded to the place
where they spent the night
The powers conferred upon Marshal
Foch are strictly confined to the con-
clusion of an armistice, according to
the Echo de Paris. The amendments
to the terms placed in the hands of the
inter-allied Council are closely limi-
ted, the newspaper says.
