bers of Board of Civil Authority Visit
Business Places.

ASuolhtoS ldICos
A mass meeting of women will be
held in Festival hall Saturday night

pertaining to the duties of those who

ter and to administer the freeman 8
oath to those who have not already

As a means to securing the registra
ton of women in some of the larger
places of business and to enhance the
work of preparing the check list to be
used Sept. IA at the primary election,
William X. Daley and Harold f. Whit
ney, members of the board of civil au-
thority, and Mrs. Fremont Hamilton,
head of the local Woman Suffrage as
ISOLATION, have visited some of the bus
mess places, secured the names which
are to be added to the check list, and
| administered the oath to the women in
Il body. Other places will be visited
today and later on as arrangements can
be made.
Increasing interest in the coming pri-
maries and privilege of voting by wo-
men who are unable for various reasons
to leave their homes during the
town clerk s Office hours is shown
| by numerous telephone inquiries
regarding the procedure to follow.
Secretary of State Harry A. Black
has issued the following letter, copies
of which were received Wednesday by
Town Clerk Hopkins and The Phoenix:
70 all Town and City Clerks:
The 10Th amendment to the constitu.
ton of the United States having been
duly proclaimed by the secretary of
state of the United States, it is my
understanding that the women of this
state have the right to vote for all Of
fcers to be nominated at the September
primaries upon the same terms as men.
That is, their qualification as to age,
residence, citizenship, etc, must be the
same as for men and none other.
The effect of the amendment is to
remove from our constitution and stat
utes all discrimination as to sex so far
as the qualifications for voters are con-
cerned.
4 Therefore, it follows that women who
appear before the board of civil author
4 ny Ut TIE appointeu rnie ior@TesistrSi-
tion and who qualify should have their
names placed upon the check list.
The provisions of chapter of the
General Laws relating to revision of
the check list are broad enough to per-
NIT registration if application is made
within the time limited
You will be provided with a sufficient
number of ballots to provide for the
expected increase in number of voters.
Dated at Montpelier, Vermont, this
Both day of August, 1920

Secretary of State.

REPLY TO CHARGES
Georgia Tech Official Claims All His Team Were Eligible in Game Against Pittsburgh Last Saturday.

Atlanta, Ga. Oct. 2S.-Director Crenshaw of Georgia Tech in a signed statement yesterday denied that three members of the Georgia Tech football team which played the University of Pittsburgh, last, Saturday had played football more than four years. The statement was in reply to one issued Sunday by Director Miner of Pitts burgh announcing that Pittsburgh would play no more games with Geor- gia Tech.
 Every man on the Georgia Tech team.' said Director Crenshaw's state ment. had previously been ruled elig- ible by the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic association
 Director Crenshaw, discussing the three players objected to, said Ralph Flowers, captain, had played two years at Davidson college and was playing his second year at Georgia Tech; Fin cher. tackle, was playing his fourth year a member of the Georgia Tech team, and that Staton, end, was a sev- enteen-year-old freshman, playing his first year.
 Pitts action in severing relations which no longer existed" he added lis ready explained by articles appearing in Pittsburgh papers announcing Pitts desire to form a combination with Dartmouth and other colleges. In event of such an arrangement Tech would furnish an undesirably hard game.'

Navy Coach Drills on Plays to Vary
 ne-Plunging Game.

Annapolis Md, Oct. 2S.-Trying several combinations in the Naval Academy backfield yesterday. Coach Folwell drilled his players along some new lines, paying special attention to plays likely to produce long gains and relieve the line-plunging attack upon which the Navy team has relied. Raw Iings and Taylor were used part of the time, and will probably be given a thorough tryout against Western Re serve on Saturday. Both have weight, experience and speed, and many be- lieve that they would strengthen the backfield greatly.
 The squad is rounding into shape after last weeks strenuous game at Princeton Cruise and Moves were the only regulars absent from practice this afternoon. Cruise may return to- morrow. but Moves is not expected before Monday.

Middletown, Conn.,, Oct. 27.-An unusual feature of the football game here next Saturday between Wesley an and the University of Rochester will be the fact that the rival head coaches are twin brothers. On the Wesleyan side is Dr. Edgar Fauver and across the field will sit pr. Edwin Fauver. They are both physicians and graduated from Oberlin, where each played end on tho football team. Ac- cording to the Wesleyan brother, the similarity will end right there, for he promises to show his brother some new tricks next Saturday about coach ing @ football team.

RUTGERS COACH HURT.
Sanford Gets Into Scrimmage at New

New Brunswick, N. J., Oct. 2S.- Head Coach G. Foster Sanford was added to the hospital list of the Rut- gers football squad at yesterday after noon's practice. The Varsity and scrubs were scrimmaging and Sanford got up close to the scrimmage line in order to get a better view of the work. He became so absorbed that he forgot to obey his own rigid orders, namely, follow the ball" The two lines clashed and Augustine, guard on the scrubs, pushed Lentz, the giant freshman Varsity guard, aside and in so doing the latter hit Sanford. It was some time before the coach was able to sit up in a chair that was brought on the field. Later he was assisted into the grand stand, where he watched and directed practice while wrapped in blankets.

The camp has already been estab

~ CHANN' . hNHPs
New York, June 25.--ilariest pos
slble ratification OF the German
peace treaty, after elimination OF Ar
ticle 10 and adherence TO the League
OF Nations, as the platform upon
which the republican party should
stand in the presidential campaign,
was urged by Herbert Hoover in
statement published by ,he New
York Evening Post today,
Hoover advocated .he league as
"a product OF the liberal class OF the
world" declaring that in such an
organization there was no place for
any threat of military force such
as ID implied in the present Article
10.
Hoover urged the republican party
to take definite stand for ratifIea-
ton OF treaty without Article 10, in
order to force the democratic party
into the position OF defending IA
practical military alliance-upon
which their safety devices only fur
ther endanger the real value of the
league"
Article 10, which Hoover would
eliminate, states that members or
the league will undertake to preserve
the territorial integrity of member
nations.
Hoover said there was nothing In
the phraseology OF Article 10 con
stitutlng binding obligation, but
declared there Is an implication that
party has generally come to be re-
garded as constituting a strong NOR
al responsibility"
He said the real cause for dissen.
sion regarding the league was wheth-
er the United States should commit
itself to guarantee the territorial IN
tegrity OF foreign states and to use
its military resources to carry out
the leagues decision. This, he said,
was the fundamental question around
which the forthcoming election
would be fought
THE essential things about the
league covenant that commend it to
me-" he said, ARE, first, its recpgnl-
tlon that wars have their springs
chiefly in Misunderstanding and
its provision for an organization de-
signed to minimize occasions for dis
trust by continuous common counsel.
and second. its creation of facilities
for converglng upon any controversy
vide publicity and the force OF tho
public opinion of the world. The de-
STABILITY OF organizing these actlvi-
ties by international cooperation Is
supported by both our political par
ties.
Through Article 10 and some ref
erences to II, the league covenant
is to a degree military allegiance.
