Hines Statement
Director General Hines statement
on notifications of the conservation
orders said:
The conservation order of De-
cember 8, 1919, restricting the use
of heat, light and power generated
or produced from bituminous coal or
coke was issued to make uniform in
all parts of the country the restric-
lions which had already been adopt-
ed In many parts of the country and
TO save coal and coke. Until the pro-
duction of bituminous coal becomes
normal, it is vitality necessary that
1t be conserved in every way possible
and even after production reaches
normal, it will be necessary to con-
tinue to conserve coal because of tho
loss In production of between thirty
and thirty-five million tons during
the coal strike. 1t is important
therefore, that the public exercise
the greatest cautions in the con-
sumption of coal.
1T being the desire to renove
restrictions just as rapidly as nos
sible, the conservation order of De-
cember has been modified TODAY
to permit the resumtion as condjt ions
warrant of the supplying of light
heat and power restricted by this
order. Coal is now being moved and
VIII continue to be moved from the
east to the west in large Quantities
as the relative situation in the two
sections permits. The first incrense
in production that has resulted from
the termination of the strike of the
coal miners has been in the east
where already the bulk of the pro-
duction was being obtained. Condi-
tions in the several regions differ
and accordingly the order of Decem
Der will be modified on recommen-
dation of the regional directors MS
their respective situations may per-
nit.
Regional directors have been in
structed to-day to restore all train
service removed or curtailed because
of the strike situation as soon as
the general coal supply in their re-
spective regions justifes in their
judgment doing so. subject to such
exceptions as may be ordered by

Although operators predicted that
coal production in the Pittsburgh

over yesterdays output. they said
normal production could not be ex-
pected before early next week.
There was no great increase in the
number of union miners returning

5000 to 10000 men returned to

EASTERN FOOTBALL HAS
NO REAL CHAMPION TEAM;
RANK ELEVEN BY GROUPS

All the hurrahing is silenced and
all the snake dances are finished in
the most topsy-turvy football sea-
son the pigskin game has ever
known. Never before have there
been such startling reverses in form
IN Eastern football, and never have
apparently good elevens, been so un-
dependable in execution" says the
New York Times.
FORM and calculation meant moth
ing during the season just ended. A
team would show championship
form one Saturday and on the next
saturday would fall before a hitherto
unsuccessful opponent
Perhaps never bfeore in the his
tory of Eastern college football
nave the so-called big elevens been
so ruthlessly pushed into the back
ground as during the season lust
ended. Where once the colors and
the battle cries of Harvard, Yale,
Princeton, Pennsylvania, and Cor
nell reigned supreme, the flashing
hues of Syracuse, Colgate, Dart
mouth, Penn State or West Virginia
commanded attention and respect.
Eastern Elevens.
Among the East ern elevens is
would be futile, and unfair to at
tempt to place any one team above
all the rest There was no outstand-
ing football machine the superior
ity of which was unquestioned. The
only teams in the East which were
undefeated were Harvard and Stew
ems. Harvard played a tie game
with Princeton. The Crimson sched-
ule included few strong elevens,
while the strongest teams on the un-
defeated Stevens eleven were Column
bia and New York University. So
there is little prestige attached to
the fact that these two teams were
undefeated.

FIRE DESTROYS
NEW BRIQUETTE
PLANT; Big LOSS
Work Begun Less Than One
Month Ago; to Rebuild
at Once

Lykens, Pa, Dec. 13.-Fire which
Tor time threatened the de-
struction of the entire plant of the
American Briquette Company, which
began operation here less than
month ago, to-day destroyed the
"drier" section of the building, to-
gether with the loading bins. The
loss will approximate $4,000, ac-
cording to Manager Kennedy. It is
partially covered by insurance.
Much valuable machinery was de-
stroyed.
How the fire started has not been
definitely determined, and an inves-
ugation Is now under way. The
names were first discovered at sos
a. m. and until corps of volunteer
hremen arrived, the entire east sec
ton of the building was aflame and
1T was not until about 7.45 that the
fire was finally extinguished.
The plant began operation No
Vember 10 and had reached n point
where seventy-five tons of briquettes
were being produced daily. Twenty
three men had been employed, but
it was planned to add second
shift of employees on Monday. The
entire force will be thrown out of
work temporarily
The plant will be rebuilt at once,
according to Manager Kennedy.

! standards usually followed in the
past is out of the question, for there
are too many arguments which
might be brought forth to refute the
claims of any one eleven which
might try to set itself up on the
pedestal of n mythical champion
ship.
\ Hopeless Complication.
"At various times during the sea-
son there were groups of teams
which seemed to stand out over their
opponents. Such superiority, how
ever, was only temporary, and be-
fore the season was half over the
football situation became n hope
less complication of unexpected
victories and defeats.
I'm this season of surprises and
appointments The New York
Times divides the elevens into groups,
and the difference between these
various groups in some cases is so
slight that it can hardly be said
that this or that eleven was better
than any one of eight or ten others.
Taking twentyfour teams whose
playing commended attention at var
ious times during the freakish sea-
son, they seem to settle themselves
into groups. These groups, as
printed here, are not arranged ac-
cording to any definite rating, but
listed alphabetically. The five groups
as follows:
Group Colgate, Dartmouth,
Penn State, Syracuse.
Group Harvard, Pennsylvania,
Pittsburgh, Princeton, Washington
and Jefferson, West Virginia.
Group 3-Navy, Yale.
Group Army, Boston, Brown,
Georgetown, Lafayette, Lehigh, Rut-
