After Annual Clash

After the Cony-Gardiner game
Saturday the members OF the two
football squads with the coaches
and the principals of the two
schools, were the guests of the Cony
football management at a fine ban
quet at the Y. NJ. c. A. assembly
hall. The affair was wholly infor-
NAL there being no set speaker and
the boys enjoyed themselves to the
utmost. the grouping of the two
schools in this manner going far to
develop the spirit of fellowship and
cameradie between the old time
rivals.
Because of injuries received in the
grid fray, Captain Stuber and Sim
ons could not attend the compliment
tary supper. The fleet back. Dale,
was kept away by a previous ap-
pointment.
Informal talks were made by
Principal Chaffee and Raymond Nc

Lee Austin and Coach Thompson OF
Cony.
The following girls acted as wait
resses on this occasion: Alice Hun

LAUSANNE PEACE
FARLEY IS PUT OVER
TO NOVEMBER 10Th

Paris. Nov. 12.-tBy A. P.)-The
French foreign office today announced
that the Greco-Turkish peace confer
ence to be held at Lausanne had been
| tentatively set for mot later than No
vembcr 90"
Originally the date set for the con-
vening of the conference was November
IL. but the British government desir-
cd postponement. 1t was said toda y
that tn eBritish were arguing for a
still later date than November 20 but
the French government could not see
why weeks postponement should not
be ample.
The same uncertainty that charac-
terlzeS the peace conference still
clouds the proposed preliminary meet
ing between the representatives of
Great Britain. France and Italy. The
British desire sort of inter-Allied
conference to precede the Lausonne
gathering, while NJ. Poincare, the
French premier. thinks simple con
lersations" will be adequate. He has
suggested that he can see and talk to
Lord Curzon. the British foreign sec
rotary. while Lord Curzon is passing
through Paris on his way to Lausanne.
Italys position is rather vague.
Home dispatches have said that Pre-
mier Mussolni was not ready for the
conference at Lausanne tomorrow
They did not indicate, however, when
he would be prepared to be represented
al Lausanne or what would be his atti-
tudc to conversations between the prin-
cipal Allies.
The French feel there is every chance
of Great Britain and France being in
general accord on questions on which
Lord Curzon is extremely anxious to
obtain Allied agreement before the
meeting with the Turks: but there is
no concealment of the fac THAT there
is not entire harmony in tie views of
the French and the British. The
French. in any case. think that II is
better to get to work with the Turks
quickly in order to avoid any out.
