KREBS QUITS AS
ST. JOHNS COACH
Mentor Of Athletic Teams Hands
In Resignation. Relieving Un-
pleasant Situation

A somewhat unpleasant situation in
athletics at ST Johns College has
been cleared up by the resignation of
Charles l.. (PaD Krebs. who for near
ly two seasons has been coach at that
institution. A considerable number of
alumni of st. Johns have been antag-
onistic to the continuance of Krebs,
and some members of the faculty also
shared their view. The opposition is
based upon the failure to develop win
ming teams under Krebs. and other
matters. For six or eight years St
Johns has been in a losing rut in ath-
letics. though formerly it had a COM
manding position.
On Monday Krebs was informed by
the officials of st. Johns that they de-
to end. Krebs felt that his term of
employment extended through { h e
baseball season. though he had no de-
finite contract to that effect. How
ever. after giving the matter careful
consideration, he determined TO for
ward his resignation. and did so.
While no great athletic success has
been obtained under Krebs, it is point
ed out that the area of weakness ex-
tended over number of years before
Krebs was secured as coach. 1t is
also fact that the student body at
St. Johns is small and that the insti-
tutionS which are it's athletic rivals

What Alterations Mean

In commenting on this meeting, G..
w. Norris, County Agricultural Agent
expressed deep satisfaction that the
dairymen saw the great amount Of
good such an ordinance would be to
them. He further said:
THE alterations do not affect the
ordinance in any material sense at all.
In the first alteration the omitting of
the word 'pasteurized' does not affect
the spirit or the letter of the section.
but merely removes a word which
might in future be misconstrued in the
sale of the by-products of milk and
cream. The second alteration merely
raises the temperature from so de-
grees Fahrenheit to so in order to
avoid the necessity of icing milk dur
ing hot weather, which necessarily
would raise the price of milk to the
consumer In the short haul all the
dairymen have to the Annapolis mar
ket the milk would never be above this
temperature and by little co-opera-
tion on the part of the consumer in
taking in the milk as soon as deliver

S|NN FE|N HEAD
CHARGES LLOYD
GEORGE TRYING
To SPLIT ERIN
Republican A. p. Leased WireI

DUBLIN. Feb. 9-Eamon de Valera
tonight issued a statement with ref
erence to the Republican demonstra-
ton which has been called for sun
day As the newspapers are not
warming the people of the danger, he
SAYS. no way is left but to address
them by word of mouth.
The statement recalls the history
of Premier Lloyd Georges dealings
with Ireland and accuses him OF FOL
lowing a policy of partitioDing Ire
land into two antagonistic and mu-
tually destructive states.
Mr.. Lloyd George maneuvered
Michael Collins and his colleages
into begging the executive he required
and the next step was TO provide
this provisional government with
parliament.
Mr.. de Valera says Mr. Lloyd
George had fooled many OF the Irish
in 1917 by the Plunkett convention,
the members of which he himself
handpicked. Now he has confined
the scope of the Irish assembly S
deliberations within the signed arti-
cles of agreement and crippled It
from making any proposal that Is
likely to run counter to British m
terests. He also has provided for
the veto of Sir James Craig. Ulster
premier. and provided for final re-
vision of the treaty by the British
house of commons.
Mr.. de Valera recalls the condl-
tions which Arthur Griffith in l9l I,
when invited to enter the Plunkett
convention. said was essential; that
the personnel of the parliament
should be regularly elected by the
people. that there should be no limit
to the scope of this solution, and that
the decision Of the majority should
be final. All three conditions, Mr.. de
| Valera says. clearly are still neces-
sary, and the present proposal Tor
! the assembly, fulfills neither OF the
/ last two.
IF Mr.. Griffith and Mr.. Collins
are not prepared TO advocate any OF
| these proposals." he says. either in
an immediate election on the issue
| of the indefinite suspended treaty
! before a definite constitution is sub
| mitted. or for elections to a consti-
| tuent assembly, with the obvious fate
! that awaits it's deliberations. 1t can
! only be that they have lost sight oil
! Ireland's interests in an atmosphere
/ of party feeling and party eNpedi-
/ ency: that the yare prepared to bind
! Ireland at every step. whilst England
/ is left wholly free and to sacrifice all
! the vital interests OF the Irish ma
! iority. while the minority and Eng
| land make no sacrifice whateveE'
