HOPKINS-MD. STATE.
PEACE FARLEY OFF.
College Presidents Unable to
Agree on Method of Mend
ing Sport Break.

BALTIMORE. Jan. 9.-Negotia-
tons between Presidents Frank J.
GOOdnow, of Johns Hopkins Uni
versity, and +. a. Woods, of the
University of Maryland, for the re-
sumption of athletic relations be-
tween the two universities were de-
clafed off today.
The Hopkins-Maryland football
game, which had been scheduled
tentatively for November is, pend
ing a satisfactory outcome of the
efforts of the two presidents, has
been cancelled, and it seems prac-
ticalIy certain that the. two insti-
buttons will not stage gridiron
battle next autumn.
President Goodnow has notified
the athletic authorities of Hopkins
that they need not hold open the
November date any longer. 1t is
understood that Hopkins is already
negotiating with the Virginia Mill
tary Institute.
In an interview today DR.. Good
now said he and President Woods
have been unable to reach an
agreement as to the method of Sc
lecting committees to represent the
institutions for the consideration of
matters pertaining to the resump-
ton of sport relations.
DIR. Goodnow said it had been his
desire to have committees of
alumni appointed who would 90
over the heads of the athletic
coaches and directors of the instItu-
tions and arrange the terms. of
agreement which would mend the
break caused two seasons ago as
result of misunderstanding OF
eligibility rules. Therefore. he said.
he had proposed TO President Woods
that each of them appoint COM
mitteAof three alumni of their re-
spective universities. which would
NOE include as members either
coaches or athletic directors.
DIR. Woods has said he regrets
that he will be unable to accept my
proposal DR.. Goodnow said. 'I1e
has offered counter suggestion
that we appoint alumni committees
which may include the coaches. But
as l do not believe a satisfactory
end can be reached through such a
plan, nothing remains except to
drop our negotiations. I had hopec
that we would be able to evolve a
plan satisfactory to all concerned
and regret we shall have to post
pone resuming our sport relations"
No other plan of negotiating be-
tween the two universities has as
yet been considered by members or
either institution, so far as could
be learned today. Some of the Hop
kins followers, however. suggested
that the only move possible must
be made through the alumni asso-
Citations of the colleges. which may
be able to evolve a scheme similar
to the one advocated by President
Goodnow.
