Washington, Oct. 22.-The question
of accepting peace treaty reservations
without further opposition was earnest
ly considered by democratic senate
leaders under the pressure OF develop
ments pointing to an early showdown
in the ratification fight.
The treaty opposition forces. an
nouncing at last a complete agreement
on a reservation program by the SEN
ate majority, brought the situation to
an unexpected issue by serving notice
that their proposal would go before the
foreign relations committee, when the
administration leaders would be asked
to go on record definitely as accepting
or rejecting 1t.
Regarded as uitimatum.
Described by the majority as in the
nature of an ultimatum, the announce
ment was followed by a conference on
the administration side. which lasted
all day but resulted in no final deci.
sion. Senators who were present said
that while some Of the leaders stood
out determinedly against any compro-
mise, there was an apparent disposi.
ton on the part Of Senator Hitchcock
and others TO consider seriously the
~practicability of such a step.
The reservation program as II is to
be presented to the committee for ap.
prevail vas not made public but 1t was
understood to embrace nine reserva
tons, evolved from suggestions gath.
cred from many sources. The subjects
said to be covered were the following:
The right of this country to judge
whether it's obligations had been full.

league of nations.

MANY HEAV|ES TRY FOR HOWARD TEAM
First Practice to Be Held Today on the College
 Campus

Of the many athletes who will at tend Howard college during the com ing season. several football stars are prominent. Coach Dillon has been . fortunate in securing eight of the men who played on the 1916 Blountsville football team. That years Blounts- vile team had very successful sea- son and it is thought that the new re- cruits will aid Coach Dillon greatly in turning out a good football team this season.
 These eight stars" are as follow st Dolphus Ratliff, 180-pound halfback; Clarence Green, 175-pound halfbacls Tom Brindley, 165-pound center; Co., lumbus Martin. 200pound tackle; Fred Albrltton, 190-pound guard; "Puny'' Adams, 225-pound tackle; Lee Head, l7g- pound fullback; Grover Kelly, 195- pound lineman. It can be seen from the above list of ps-yers that How ard is to have a heavy team. All eight of the Blountsville men have just returned from two years in the army or navy and are "as hard as nails" 10 quote Coach Dillon.
 Aside from those already named many other players are trying out for the team. As the training season ad- Vances Coach Dillon will be better able to tell how his team is to come out, but from the present outlook things could not be better.
 Several worthy baseball recruits have already been uncovered. John Ingram, from Lineville. > is said to be the best pitcher in the eastern states. and he now attends Howard, and will try for the 1920 team. Swart Spear
