Paris.-The allied finance ministers
signed an agreement this afternoon for
the distribution of the first 10000

arations. The agreement disregards
the American claim of priority for its
expenses in connection with Occupa-
lion of the Rhine. and so far rs the
actual sharing Of this money is ron
cerned, but recognizes the claim by a
special clause. which states that all
the agreements on this question are
subject to the American rights as the
various governments may establish
them. the finance ministers considering
that they do not have power 10 decide
this question.
The ministers decided. after long
discussion that the question was not
for the PREPARATIONS commission 10 de-
eide, because that body was acting
solely under the provisions of the
treaty Of Versailles. to which the
United States no longer was a party.
Consequently II WIS decided that the
question was one for the various gov
-ernmeutE concerned to settle.
The finance ministers also concluded
that 1t was impossible for them in any
case TO reopen-the long and difficult
deliberations which resulted IN the
persent agreements 50 they could only
reserve the American right and leave
the question for diplomacy to settle.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Feb. 11.-De-

the first point stressed by ". H

of the football coaching at the uni
versity of Minnesota next fall, in
succession to DR.. H L. Williams.
Spaulding, who comes to Mime

lined his tentative plans for Goph-

My great personal endeavor, -
he said, will be to teach the indi-
vidual player to block right, tackle,
right, run with the ball right and
forward pass right, and do those
things with every atom of energy
that can be stirred up in his sys-
tenn
THE important idea is not to
drive him hard to do these things,
but nothing in the way of intricate
play should be attempted until he
is able to do these things right
Men must perform their requisite
individual acts with their bodies

ents or the most wonderful schemes
of attack and defense on paper will

made to secure team punch. Part
of that punch comes naturally from
thorough drill in fundamentals, but
the team as a whole must have
drive, fighting quality, and some
thing else-the ability to lift itself
to the extra pitches of play needed
for crucial game
For my general scheme of at
tack, / believe in few plays and

JOHNNY DUNDEE
TURNS EYES ON
FEATHER CROWN.

Johnny Dundee is seeking new
fields to conquer
Dundee is the holder of the
junior lightweight championship.
He seeks to capture the feather
weight title from Johnny Kilbane.
In his last battle with Charley
White of Chicago, Dundee weighed
1862 pounds.
He feels certain that it will be a
much easier matter for him to
make the featherweight limit than
KiIbane
Here is the way Dundee sums up
his ambitions in the fight game.
There is lot of logic in his argu-
ment:
1.-The junior lightweight title ia
too new to carry any prestige For
years have been giving away from
five to ten pounds and getting no
credit for it.
THE weatherweight Is q recog-
nized article. It carries with it
prestige and big purses. I am con-
WINGED l am the best man in the
world at the featherweight limit.
81 am going to prepare q formal
challenge for Kilbane. I feel that
am the logical contender. II /
get the chance l will win the title.
Incidentally I will give 1t a little
