FRENCH TO RESUME
VATICAN RELATIONS

PARIS, Dec. 1.-The bill re-es-
tablishing diplomatic relations with
the Vatican was passed by the
French Chamber of Deputies this
evening by practically 2-to-1 vote.
The governments majority was 1873
and resumption of relations, with
the Senate's concurrence, is now be-
lieved assured.
1t was the discussion in the
Chamber of Deputies on the bill
which was the cause of Premier
Leygues' return to Paris last night.
Seeing that the debate was being
uselessly prolonged the ministers
remaining in Paris insisted that the
premier break off the negotiations
in London to appear at the tribune
of the chamber and with all the
authority of the chief of the gov
ernFaent demand a vote upon the
bill.

A Few Comparisons.
If one were to select an all.star
array from this combination he
should undoubtedly begin with
George Gipp, of Notre Dame, the
best back in the country, a back
who can punt, drop kick. pass,
break a line or run an end.
Another Eddie Mahan.
His next selection. would be "Bo"
McMillin, of Centre College. al
quarter. a good field general. a fine
passer and a star in defensive play
Lourie is very good. but McMillin
is better.
The third selection reaches the
center of the debate, where there
will be few agreements from all
three sections.
Garrity. of Princeton. is the bes,
line breaker, and Stinchcomb, oi
Ohio State, has fine all around
value.
But the pick would have to come
from Flowers, of Georgia Tech;
Robertson. of Dartmouth, or Davies
of Pittsburgh.
Flowers is probably the most
brilliant runner of the lot, bu,
Robertson can contribute greater
variety.
The Dartmouth star is a nne
runner, fine kicker and a fine
passer.
So we like them in this order:
Gipp, McMillin and Robertson.
The final choice would place Nc
Millin at quarter, Robertson at one
half. Davies or Flowers at the other
half and Gipp at fullback.

KELLY PUTS HARVARD
SECOND, YALESEVENTH
Tigers Get Decision for Slashins Yale Victory.
Penn State and Pitt In Tie for
Third Place.
ny T. HOWARD KELLY.

NEW YORK. Dec. l.-Ardent fol-
lowers Of football along the At
lantic seaboard find themselves in
possession OF practically all of the.
gridiron data needed TO attempt a
classification of the leading Eastern
elevens for the season of 1920.
By methods of comparison and
elimination. the Orange and Black
of Princeton has been conceded the
topmost place on the 1870 Flagstaff
of Eastern football fame by those
who are qualified to rank teams ac-
cording to best traditions of the
game. And incidentally, in admit
ting Princeton's supremacy over all
other Eastern football machines, II
must be the strength Of it's record
for the entire season and not upon
individual victories. that Princeton
registered over her 1920 opponents.
A study of the football history
made by the 1920 Princeton aggre-
cation reveals that, although tied
by Harvard in sS14-14 struggle. the
Orange and Black warriors defeated
Yale by a score of 20 TO 0. while the
best that Harvard could do with Eli
was to win by a margin of three
field goals. This in itself substanti-
ates- the general belief that Prince
ton had an edge on Harvard in
their tie game.
Harvard developed a sturdy de-
fense during the past season that
suffered a real setback only in the
game with Princeton and by dint
of this powerful asset the Crimson
eleven has worked itself into sec
ond place and apparently there are
no facts or figures to disprove its
occupancy of this place.
Penn state Holds Edge.
The performances of Penn State
and the University of Pittsburgh
entitle them to a tie for third place.
Their fray on Thanksgiving Day,
which resulted in a scoreless tie,
did not prove the means of giving
either team an ascendancy over the
other. but comparison of the games
won by each provide many qualified
critics with reason for according
third place to Penn State. How.
ever. inasmuch as football eludes
any kind of unerring analysis as
regards the strength Of teams, un-
less actually pitted against each
other, il is perhaps only fair tc
place Pittsburgh on a par with Penn
State for third place.
Boston College has received con-
siderable attention as a football
team of speed and power on account
Of its victory over the Yale eleven
by a wide margin. The fact that
Boston has not yet met defeat in
any Of its 1920 games. plus its Yale
victory. is sufficient. however. to
warrant giving Boston College
fourth place.
With only two defeats registered
against Dartmouth during 1920 and
exhibits of unusual flashes OF
strength and speed to its credit.
the eleven representing this insti-
tuition has cinched its bid for sixth
place among the first ten football
outfits Of the East.

meet this situation cheerfully,
and take his medicine without

he disposes of his high priced
merchandise at present values,
just so much sooner will he be

he can make his normal profit. A

Response to Reductions
Cotton Goods Agents Pleased
With RuYing Inquiry

Response yesterday to the new low
prices on bleached cotton goods named
late Thursday night by the two leading
selling agents in this market was re-
garded as encouraging in the offices OF
these houses. Several liberal orders
were placed by buyers on the spot and
some telegraphic orders also were re-
ccived
The new payment terms furnished
more food for talk than did the ex-
tremely low prices. With the mer-
chant given until 'March 10 to pay for

the speculator some chance to buy
goods now and sell them closely, thus
turning his stock before he is COM

Insist Next Move of Merchan-
dising Game Is Up to Re-
tailers, Who Are Waiting
for Consumer to Purchase

In many quarters of the Wholesale
markets yesterday there was feeling
that the era of little or no, buying
is coming to an end in the near future.
"After election" is the date that the
sellers of merchandise now place as
the date for the revival in buying ac-
tivities.
The downward sweep Of prices. has
upset many of the old values and it
is certain that a great amount Of con-
hicting influences on the price situa-
ton will be with the markets for some
time to come. Apparently from all
that can be gathered from conversa-
tons with wholesalers the next move
in the merchandising game is UP to the
retailers Of the country. In turn the
chandising plans are being held in
allegiance pending some show Of buy
ing tren on the Of the general
public. Retailers admit that the full
force Of drops in the wholesale mar
ket have not been reflected in retail
prices, but that competition is slowly
forcing prices on their downward
course. There is a strong effort be-
ing made to hold back falling prices as
long as possible and to make the
process of liz d;.tion as gradual as
circumst stances ill permit.
Wholesalers are berating the retail
ers for their lack of confidence in
present wholesale prices and for fail
ing TO Immediately pass on the price
reductions that have been made in
primary sources. The latter in turn
arc inclined TO feel that the Wholesale
fraternity "put one over" on them last
year by urging greater purchases in
view of real or fanced shortages of
goods. A reastablshment of good
faith among the various branches of
the producing and distributing in
dustries undoubtedly is necessary, in
the opinion of trade leaders, for re-
sumption of business on the old time
scale
