yesterday and he was not at his best at doubles. He often was out Of position but extricated himself from bad situations by the brilliancy of hts strokes.
 Patterson was frequently caught in the back court during rallies and this weakness was seized upon by the challengers.
 Patterson undoubtedly won the first set but beyond question his poor work lost tho next three.
 T'ilden meets Patterson and Brookes meets Johnston in singles matches to- morrow. but tho result of these con- tests cannot affect the possession Of the Davis cup.

Boston, Dec. 31.-The probability Of Jackson CanncI. captain of the Dartmouth varsity eleven last year. succeeding Clarence Spears as coach of the Green football team was ex- pressed by those in touch with the situation today. The announcement from Chicago that Spears would coach at West Virginia next Fall was not unexpected, and Cannell, who was his assistant this year. expected to move mp as head coach. CannelI himself said today he had no word on the matter. Graduate Mana ger Horace G. Fender, who is in Chicago, is the authority with whom decision will rest. he said. The only other name mentioned is that Of Larry Bankhart. Dartmouth alumnus who resigned as coach at Colgate last year.

TO build motor cars largely Of spe

On January /. 1917. there were
only 437.55s cars in all OF Europe
while today there are more than six
million cars In use In America.
Since the day the armistice was
signed. the most progressive British
and French makers have been
equipping their plants and training

methods.
Z While they have made slow pro

four years Of war, some OF the most

l68TH BAND DRAWS
TREMENDOUS CROWD
PAVEMENT DANCE FOLLOWING
EVENING CONCERT PROVED
A BIG DRAWING CARD

The 16Sth Infantry band made its
second appearance in Audubon yes
terday. The band came from At
lantic on the afternoon Rock Island
train, which was IA little late. and
that made the afternoon program a
trifle hebind schedule tile. On &C
count of the extreme heat of the af-
ternoon, the attendance was small,
but in the evening large crowd
was in attendance.
The membership of the band is
practically as it was last year and is
under the same leadership. The
organization is better if anything
than it was year ago. They rem
dered some snappy music, and their
full program was fully appreciated.
The band appeared here under the
auspices of the American Legion
Post, which received a part of the re-
ceipts. The evening was an ideal
one. The crowd was much larger
than it was last year.
Following the concert a pavement
dance was given on South Park. An
exceptionally large crowd witnessed
the dancing which continued in pro-
gress until after midnight. The
music was splendid and those who
participated in the dance seemed to
enjoy every moment.
The members OF the band are a
nice clean lot of young men who
made many friends while in the city.
1t is to be hoped they will return to
Audubon next year. The band left
this morning for Carroll where they
will give a concert tonight.

VILLA OBEYING TERMS
FOR HIS SURRENDER

Francisco Villa is obeying all or
ders given him by the government,
Gen Eduardo c. Garcia, chief of
staff of the war department told the
Associated Press "Wednesday.
"Villa has been instructed to re-
concentrate his troops at Sabinas, in
the state of Coahuila, and he has
done so," said Gen. Garcia. 1.-THE
only guarantee the government has
given Villa is a guarantee of life, but
the other details of surrender are be-
ing handled by Gen. Lugenio Martin
ez, commander Of the northern OPP
erations.
"Villa has 600 men. He may go
to Mexico City with Martinez to re-
ceive the full terms of surrender,
which probaly will be retirement to
private life, with possible govern
ment aid to get started in civil life,
just as the United States handled the
Apaches after their surrender"
Francisco Villa, reported Tuesday
at Sabinas negotiating, by wire with
President De la Huerta for his sur
render, was said to be at Allende.
No trains are running south from
Mexico City, although the Mexican
government officials remain optimis-
tic and say there is no need for
alarm.
Villa is reported to have from 800
to 5000 men. sThe result of his tele-
graphic conference with De la Huer-
ia has not been learned.

NOT MUCH CHANCE
Little announcement for Democrats
to Elect Their State Ticket

Republicans, including Nate Ken
dali of Abba, republican candidate
for governor, do not believe Clyde l..
Herring will achieve victory in No
vember with his program for aboli-
ton of state commissions and bur-
eaus. They contend that the re-
publicans have given Iowa as mex
pensive form of state government as
is possible without turning the state
over to one man control.
II am glad to note that Herring
has taken a leaf from a republican
governor, Lowden of Illinois, as his
platform" smiled Kendall of Abba.
"Mr. Herring is a bit late with his
document, however, as he will find
upon investigation that during my
primary campaign, l, republican,
based by pleas for votes upon the
fact that / stood for a compact form
of state government and curtailment
of expenses. Yet I also believe.
however, that the voters of the, state
should not relinquish entirely the
reins of government, nor turn all the
duties of state office to any one
man."
Senator Glenn Kimball of Council
Bluffs says that Herring will be con-
fronted with evidence that the re-
publicans of Iowa have recommended
changes in state government and
state departments. Klmball says
rather that Herring will find that
Iowa is not overrun with bureaus
and commissions such as he would
have the voters believe.

Tuesday afternoon to stand by the
original plan for a peace conferences
with the Russian soyeits.
They also outlined execution OF the
financial parts of the coal arrange
ment with Germany.
Lloyd George accepted in the
main M. Millerand's views and it was
decided Great Britain should reply
to the SOVIET demand for an interna-
tional conference that it could not
take place unless the bolsheviki re-
versed their present attitude and
agreed to discuss thereat peace with
Poland and that all qualified repre-
sentaties of Russia and the border
states should attend.
Should Moscow accept these condi-
tions M. Millerand will be consulted
by Great Britain and he will lay
down the conditions necessary for
recognition of the soveits. This at
titude is taken to insure Poland not
being overwhelmed by facing the
bolsheviki alone in the negotiations,
Regarding the advances to Ger
many agreed upon at Spa in the coal
pact, it was determined that Ger
many should deliver to the repara-
tions commission by September LIST,
German treasury bonds to the value
of 100000 gold marks, bearing
six percent interest and maturing
May 1, 1921.
These may be sold or used as col
lateral with or without the allies in
dorsement as a means for the repair
tions commission realizing upon
them. After September list Ger
many shall deliver to the commission
similar bonds corresponding to the
advances France is to make for full
fillment of the promised coal deliv-
cry. In this way France will be re-
lieved OF the burden through a sim
pie banking operation.

of advances France is to make to
