Instantly there arosc doubts that there was mischief in tfH air, that Germany was doing this as . blind, that the Hun propaganda to prevent the Fourth Liberty Loan be ing raised was the real motive, and hundreds of other reasons were Quicl
 advanced and the people Settlei town to think.
 Even President Wilson doubted th" real meaning of the text and cabled he American Commander, Maj. Gen. Pershing to Keep going"
 The newspaper offices Saturday light and all day yesterday were the center of attractions but no bulletins were issued as no official reports a. O the text were given out and the ext was not announced until afte: midnight, after the crowds had gom nome.

Tate's stomach. and followed with
another TO the same place. A hard

that sent Tate to the floor. He re-
manned down for the even count OF
nine. Fulton sent in repeated jabs
to the face.
Tate came back in the second round
with vicious swings that Fulton
lodged. Fulton again sent in hard
punches 10 Tate-s face. and with 4
right TO the jaw sent Tate down.
Tate got up only To be sent OF the
mat again. Another hard right put
the OkIahoman down, and his man.

NO AGREEMENT IS
REACHED BY STATE
WITH GEORGETOWN

Georgetown and Maryland State
have made no agreement on football
date for next season, and have, signed
no compact to enter into a five-year

game.
Charles r. Cox, graduate manager
of athletics at Georgetown, and II. C..
Byrd, director of athletics at Mary
land State. have recently talked over
with their teams, figuring it as a
good local attraction.
Maryland State had received "a
promise. from Vanderbilt University

here. The Nandy authorities wanted
more money than State could offer.
Coach Heiseman, of Georgia Tech
was also entertaining a proposition
to come here to play Maryland State.
Then Vanderbilt and Georgia Tech
hooked up on the date that Maryland
State was considering.
The proposed Georgetown Ma ryland
state engagement for next fall is
pending upon negotiations with Lafa
yette University and St. john College,
Of Annapolis, Nd. by the Staters.
The Eastonians are considering No

napolis on that date also.
In the event that Lafayette turns
down the date OF November 8 and
Maryland State can be released from
the St Johns promise. Byrd says he
will be willing to entertain a PROPOSE
ton with Graduate Manager Cox.
The need of a good local game is ap
parent, and Maryland State and
Georgetown may find the engagement.
mutually beneficial. State is laying
plans for greater activities in ath
Ietics. and can be rated among the
first class institutions il the plans
are carried through.
