CRIMSON WILL MEET
 VIRGINIA ''U' TO-DAY
raepubllcan A. p. Leased wIrel

NEW YORK, Oct. 29-While the eastern football schedule for the final Saturday of October does not offer the attractive features of week ago, in tersectional games still hold the fore rank on the gridiron card. The mid dle west will be represented by the Notre Dame eleven at West Point and the Western Reserve team at Annaps oils. From the south will come the University of Virginia to meet Har- ward and Princeton will line up with West Virginia.
 With the possible exception of Notre Dame, none of the invading teams ap- pear as formidable as year ago. The Indiana combination in four games to date has amassed 125 points against 10 by opponents. Nebraska is the only eleven which has succeeded in crossing the Notre Dame goal line, while Val paraiso. which Harvard defeated, 21 to 0, scored a field goal.
 The Army has run up heavy scores against every opponent played this season. but has shown rather weak defense. and as the western team has specialized in this form of offence for years. the Cadets will have to show speed and alertness to hold the wis itors in check.
 Harvard defeated Virginia 47 to last season and expects to win again tomorrow. although the southerner: are considered to have one of the besi lines in their section. Except for a de feat by Virginia Military academy. tho Virginians have won all of their game: to date. Harvard is not likely to find Virginia as strong as Centre college but will require the first string play.
 CTS for a major portion of the game a | least.
 West Virginia, shorn of her grea
 fullback. Rodgers, is far from beinl as strong as 1e months ago. Pittsburl has already defeated the Mountaineer
 and Lehigh held them to a tie. Tn
 Tigers probably will endeavor to equs
 or exceed the 24 long score made b
 Yale against West Virginia last Sat , urday. A somewhat similar situatio
 will exist at New Haven. where Col gate is scheduled to play Yale. Tn New Workers have yet to win a gam
 this session.

REALTY PRICES UP
 IN DEPOT VICINITY

Semi-official announcement of the location of the proposed new union de- pot on Harrison street between Fourth and Sixth avenues, has sent realty prices soaring in that vicinity, real estate men declared yesterday.
 There has been a mild scramble for choice property in the immediate vicin- ity of the proposed railroad station, it was stated, with a result that owners have boosted their prices. Boosts, in many instances have trebled old prices.
 Notwithstanding these jumps. realty sharks" have been eager to grab op- tions on the more favorably situated property. the announcement said. In a majority of instances, outside capi- tai is interested, declared dealers.
 Local real estate men look upon the movement with more or less amuse- ment. It indicates. said one of the men. an ever increasing faith in the future Phoenix. especially by outside capital.

AMERICAN LEAGUE
 HAS COUNTER PLAN
 FUR BALL CONTROL

5 CHICAGO, Oct 29-A counter pro- posal to the "Lasker Plan" for the re- organization of baseball was made to- day by the board of directors of the American League in executive session. The boards proposal was in answer to the ultimatum of the National League members and the three American League clubs, Chicago, New York and Boston-who declared they would or ganize a F club if the five American League clubs which are loyal" to President Johnson did not join in the plan before November 1.
 The boards answer suggests that a committee of nine members, three each from the National League, the Ameri- can League and the National Associa- ton of professional baseball players work out a plan of reorganization This committee it was pointed out will give due consideration not only to the major leagues but to the minor leagues as well.
 We are confident" the statement continues that in this manner a re- organization may be worked out along sane and practical lines, which will bt satisfactory not only to organized baseball but to the public as well. We realize there is a strong feeling prev alent among the public in favor of re. organization and the public will b. glad to cooperate in a practical wa. to that end.
 "The board of directors are of th' unanimous opinion that the so-calleC Jasper plan will prove wholly inef fectual to accomplish the results whicl it's sponsors seeks to accomplish ant the American League cannot subscrib to that plan"
 The meeting today was attended b. Ban Johnson, and all members of tn board of directors, Frank Javin, De troit; Clark C. Griffith, Washington and Thomas S. Shibe. Philadelphia, al of whom signed the statement.

NICK DAV|SC0URT
 BEATS ROMANOFF IN MATT CONTEST

Nick Daviscourt won two in three falls from Alex Romanoff. Russian champion. in one of the prettiest ex- nibitions of wrestling ever staged in this city at Tally's arena last night. The two big fellows crowded more action. more holds Into TO minutes of rrappllng than is generally seen fin dozen bouts of two hours each.
 Daviscourt won the first fall in Ss minutes flat when Referee Hunnell be- came a bit nasty and awarded the Californian the honors before he had nlnnsd Romanoffs shoulders to the mat. Daviscourt showed his sports mnnehip by announcing his willingness ko cnll the fall off. but Romanoff de- clarod he never disputed a referees de- cision and that he desired the verdict 10 stand. Romanoff took the second fan in 1s minutes and 70 seconds on a double arm scissors. Daviscourt won the third and deciding fall in 10 min utes and 30 seconds when Alex sur rendered to a wicked toe hold
 Romanoff showed Phoenix fans some of the cleverest bit of mat work they have ever seen His highly touted ~educated feet were learned-no ques- ton about it, but then. they were big enough to be. He frequently employed his extremeties on offensive and de- fensive work and but for his wonder ful foot work. would have suffered 6 much more decisive beating.
 His victory fin the second fall was the result of his leg work. Incidentally this double arm scissors hold is abou as deadly a weapon employed by any xrappler. For more than six minutes Daviscourt suffered through the agony of an arm slowly numbing. He made Herculean efforts to break the hols without avail and then, as Romanof applied greater pressure and it seemed that the arm was about to be broken Nick dropped his two shoulderd to th' mat. a defeated man.
 Coming out for the third fall. Davis court immediately took the offensiv and through 10 minutes of the fastes
 mat work ever witnessed in this city kept his opponent continually on tn defensive. Nick wasn't taking an chances of getting that arm caught
 second time and so he raced agains time, forcing the Issue at break-nec pace throughout. Twice during tn first 10 minutes, he had Romanoi periiousIy close to defeat, but tn Russian was equal to the occasion Switching sudden from a reverse hn
 Nelson and bar arm hold, Nick clampe on a toe hold with great pressure an in 40 seconds. Romanoff forfeited th fall Co save a broken leg.
 Tho opening event was a wrestlin contest limited to 20 minutes betwee Young Henderson of Phoenix an Tommy Rascon. light heavyweigl i. champion of Mexico. It went the CT
 tire distance. with honors about eve q The showing of the local boy. howeve
 surprised even his most ardent aS
 mirors. for they hardly expected hi to show so we'll against a man Of suS " recognized ability as Rascon.
 n Henderson took the offensive equal as much as did his opponent and h' Rascon in danger on several oittere occa stona. He seemingly broke all
 Rascon's efforts with comparat lc ease. NasHM

CONGRESSMAN w. II. GREEN
VISITS HIS OLD HOME

Judge Green, a former resident OF
Audubon, spent couple Of days here
with old time friends. He is look
ing we'll after a session of hard work
in congress. He and his family are
now at Council Bluffs where they
will spend the summer.
No session of congress ever trans
acted more important business than
the one that recently closed is the
opinion of Congressman Green. He
says: 'Its work that will be most
appreciated was in cutting down the
appropriation bills until they were
nearly $1,000, 100000 under those
passed for the same fiscal year by
the democratic congress, but which
did not become a law because the
senate and house failed to come to
final agreement upon them. The list
of important measures which were
passed in addition to the appropria-
tion bills is too long to now specify.
Unfortunately some of the mosG i'm
pCrtant failed to receive til APPROX
al Of the president. He vetoed the
budget bill on the claim that it took
away some of his prerogatives. Other
bills upon some of which congress
lluu WI hGu lOI ltlOulAS dlIu GNGh
years, although not vetoed, were not
signed, and died with the session"
AS to the republican ticket the
judge says: 81 attended the con-
vention at Chicago. The contest
was strenuous and some i'll feeling
was engendered between the leading
candidates, but none that l could OBJ
serve was directed against the final
choice of the convention. The sem
timent was practically universal that
a good selection had been made.
Harding is not as well known in
the west as in the east where he is
regarded as an exceedingly strong
and able man, and it is confidently
believed that he will carry the pivotal
state of New York, New Jersey and
Ohio. He made the keynote speech
at the convention four years ago and
those who were present at the time
will remember it as the best and
ablest speech of that convention. Its
tone and the principles which it
enunciated were universally COM
mended. He is broad minded, hon
est, easy to approach, affable and
likeable in every way. With such a
man as president there is no doubt
that he and congress will work to-
gether in harmony"

CAR SHORTAGE TO
EFFECT FARMERS
UNLESS RELIEF COMES AT ONCE
IOWA FARMERS WILL SUI
FER HEAVY Loss

Iowa is in the direst need Of
freight cars to relieve a condition
that is becoming alarmingly acute
and unless relieved soon will result
in a heavy financial loss to farming
and other industries of the state.
This was the sum total of the reports
of the state to the recent ear short
age conference at Dies Moines.
The conference was attended by
representatives of the bankers, man
ufacturers and farmers. Many at
tended the conference as represen-
tatives of Group Five of the Iowa
State Bankers Association.
while 1 knew conditions were
far from satisfactory did not real
ize they were so bad as they are un-
til after heard the reports brought
into the conference" said a promin-
ent banker.
"These reports show that towns
along the Rock Island are the worst
hit of any in the state. The Bur
lington is in much better shape SO
far as cars are concerned. All lines
however, are greatly hampered. The
object OF the conference was to- take
some step to bring immediate relief.
A committee was named to go to
Washington and lay the situation be-
fore the interstate commerce. com
mission A standing committee al
so was provided for This Is to be
composed OF, representatives of the
various organizations represented at
the Des Moines conference. This
committee will be a permanent body,
the duties of which viii be to keep
tab on the car situation and prevent
il possible future repetition of con-
ditions such as exist now.
Some weeks ago the state railroad
commission was advised by the in
terstate commence commission that
10000 empty freight cars had been
ordered to Iowa. As a matter OF
reached Iowa They were sent In
stead to Sc. Paul, 81. Louis and
Kansas City. Iowa is as bad on as
ever.
''The situation at Marine is a
concrete illustration Of the situation
as it effects the farmer. The eIe-
vator at Marine is unable to get suf-
ficient cars TO move its grain. As
result the elevator is loaded from
pit to roof. 1t takes money to car
~ this amount OF grain and interest
has to be paid. Not only this, but
the Marine elevator cannot handle
any grain from the farmers of that
neighborhood until il can unload
some OF its surplus. This cannot
be done without cars Is ii any
wonder many farmers are anxious
about the grain in their bins and the
corn in their crihs2 And is it any
wonder some of them are wondering
why all this talk about the farmer
producing more when as matter Of
fact, he cannot move what he al
ready has on hand.
"The conference was told by
Chicago railroad man that the coal
situation was also acute. In some
mines the men were working but one
day a week because OF the lack OF
cars. This man warned the confer
ence that unless something was
done at once to relieve the coal
shortage the country would be face
to face with another fuel famine and
that il would come within a few
weeks. In some centers, he said,
manufacturing plants are now I'M
able to run full time because Of n
lack of fuel"

edness with interest would exceed
the reserve of the policy at the time
of application for reinstatement of
said policy. then the amount of such
excess shall be paid by the insured
as a condition of the reinstatement
of Indebtedness and of the policy.
The policies are now in the hands
of the government printing Office
and will be issued to all those who
have availed themselves of their
privilege to convert the wartime
term insurance into the new forms of
government insurance.
1t is believed that in these con-
verted policies the government has
given to all service and ex-service
men and women policy of unusual
value.
II war risk insurance has lapsed
or been cancelled, it is necessary to
reinstate it before or at the time OF
conversion into one of the new poll
cies. Under a special ruling, no
matter how long a service man has
been discharged or how long his in
surance has been lapsed or cancelled
he may reinstate his war risk insur-
ance any time before July 1, 1920,
or within Is months after his dis
charge. IL that be later date, by
the payment of only two monthly
premiums on the amount of insur-
ance to be reinstated, and satisfac-
tory statement of health with his ap-
plication. -,
The secretary of the home service
section of the Red Cross will gladly
assist any ex-service man or woman
in making application for reinstate-
ment or conversion of the govern
ment insurance. Call at the office
