Both teams scored their touch
down in the last quarter and both
failed to kick the goal. Elkton
scored first when Diebert caught a
Newark forward pass on the lat
ter's 20-yard line and carried the
ball over. Five minutes later
Newark tied the score. This
touchdown was made by Steel af-
ter two long runs. He first went
around Elkton's end for SO yards
and a minute later went through
the line for the touchdown. The

HARVARD TEAM
 CHANGES MIND
SETTLEMENT OF STRIKE AS r SURES INTERCOLLEGIAT
 GAME FOR NEW YEAR

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Dec. 11.-R) The management of the Harvard football team this morning announc- ed that it's recent decision not to att tempt to make the trip to Pasadena, Calif., for the New Years football game with the University of Oregon has been altered by the settlement of the coal strike. AS was origin ally planned, the entire undefeated Harvard eleven will make the trip. The decision not to go was made on account of the curtailmeht of train service. The settlement of the strike indicates that more trains will be running in short time in view of which Harvard will be able to carry out it's initial plan.
 OREGON SELECTED
 PASADENA, Calif., Dec. 11.-F- According to an announcement made here this morning, the football eleven of the University of Oregon has been selected to play against the unde- feated Harvard eleven during the Rose Tournament in this city. The game will be played on New Years Day.

SOMETHING JUST
 HAD TO HAPPEN
HOW BOBBY SHELDON'S MINING PARTNER GREETED WORLDS
 IMPENDING END.

In a recent issue of The Citizen there appeard an article recounting the predictions of an alleged astron- omer to the effecS that mighty forces of nature would cause such disturb anccs in this little old world on or about December 17th that it would just naturally lie down and quit work. It so happened, says Bobby Sheldon, that he mailed this along with several other copies of The Citizen to a min ing partner of his up in the Jarvis country. About the time it reached it's destination this miner had struck a little pay dirt. Coming from the scene of his labor into his cabin ..c sat down to read his papers and one of the first stories he read was that about the world coming to an end. T knew it," he said. Just my luck. Here I've been prospect
 -.s for years and the first time have struck pay the dinged ol worlds soing to end. I knew something like that would happen D. At least that's Bobby's version of what took place.

GERMANS DAZED BY DEMANDS OF
 ALLIED BODIES

BERLIN,-(P)-Germany is fairly dazed by the demands and require ments of the entente military and naval commissions for the housing of their supervisional forces, which according to the peace treaty, may have their headquarters at the seat of the German government, and place sub-commissions at any desired point in Germany.
 it will send a chief commission to Berlin, and ten sub-commissions to other points. It demands, from Der lin hotel accommodations comprising 800 rooms, housing for 300 non-com- missioned officers and men, and gar age facilities for 60 automobiles These are the requirements for the army and naval forces.
 For the air forces the entente wants 200 rooms in a hotel 100 office rooms, housing for 450 persons, and garage space for 60 automobiles. The figures look large to Germans for guests at all the big hotels even now are happy to be able to creep into d bathroom and snatch some sleep.
 The council of states has decided that the money agreed upon to fur nish quarters for the entente mis- Sions, 5.000,000 marks, was not enough. It is, however, rooms, ho- tels, dwellings, more than money, which is worrying the government.
 The government has made be- ginning by announcing that it will confiscate one hotel which has 1S5 rooms, and use the building in Will helmstrasse, now the headquarters of a press division, for office space.
 Another hotel has been confiscated for the air division. That, however, leaves big gap between what can
 F supplied and what is demanded. The government may perhaps heed the many suggestions made recently for using various former royal and princely castles, which would relieve the strain on the already overstrain- ed Berlin hotels.

TURNS
 OUT NEWEST OF
 BIG WAR SHIPS

GLASGOW.-R)--A new largest battleship in the world" will soon slip down the ways to establish new records in the annals of navy con- Struction.
 The ship, a battle cruiser, is the Hood. She will be launched in soon, it is announced. Her builders say she is not only the largest in the British navy, but the largest Warship ever constructed. Not even the four superdreadnaughts being built for the United States navy, ships of 42,000 tons, approach the enormous bulk of the Hood her normal displacement being 44,OOO tons and, at full load, about 48,0O0.
 Fitted with old-fired boilers and geared turbines, which develop 144,- 900 shaft horsepower, the Hood is expected to show a speed of thirty one knots in her trails. Her arma- ment and anti-torpedo protection is so elaborate she is said to be the nearest approach to the "non-sink- able" ideal which constructors have been endeavoring for years. to at tain.
 Details of the Hoods gunpower, it is claimed, will cause sensation when made public.

BRITAIN MEETS
 DIFFICULTY IN
 STRIKE POLICY

LONDON,-(P)--Great Britain, like the United States. is having great difficulty attempting to establish an arbitration tribunal to avert nation wide strikes.
 There is yet no adjustment of the dispute arising out of the govern ment's refusal to include certain classes of workers under the provi- sions of the hours of employment bill which was introduced just before parliament's recess fin August. And on an adjustment of this difficulty, according to labor leaders, depends the success or failure of efforts to establish in Great Britain national industrial council which, it was hoped would obviate such troubles as the recent railway strike.
 The legislation in question would grant forty-eight-hour week to all workers. but the government elected to debar agricultural workers and sea- men from it's application. The trade unionists have steadfastly insisted upon the inclusion of the debarred workers and the employers have inti- mated their acquiesence.
 The trade unionists have intimated to the government that. in accord. ance with the resolution passed by the full industrial conference or April 4. they were unable to proceed with the formation of tho national industrial council as long as the
The weekly Alaska citizen., 1919-12-15

government persisted in its refusal to give effect to some of the important provisions of the agreed report.
 The government has reaffirmed it's attitude and refused to make any con- cession. The workers representatives, therefore, decided to first meet the employers delegation and then, if no progress could be made, to demand that the full industrial conference should be recalled in order that they might confer with it and receive a further mandate.
 Neither side shows indications of willingness to give way. Many per sons in touch with industrial affairs believe it will end in the whole scheme for the setting up of national arbitration body falling thru, leaving the government to proceed with the orty-eight-hours bill on it's own re- sponsibility and without the weight of employers and trade unions behind it.
 The situation is further complicated by the fact that the trade unions congress, in accordance with a reso- lution passed at it's Glasgow meeting in September, has decided to proceed at once in the house of commons with a bill establishing a universal work ing week of fCrty-eight hours. It is likely that the two bills will ap-
 ear before parliament at the same time if the labor party can find opportunity for it's bill to be dis cussed.
