There will be no quitting by their

Anyway, the Mohawk footers are
getting together tonight at the
cIubhouse in Eighth street south
east. to make plans for roofing ana
incidentally to have a rousins time
in the way OF a smoker and enter"
tainment.
Both Mohawk and Mercury fans
are Of the loyal variety, AZ already
shown in their games this season.
And both teams appreciate It. Inc
going is made lots tougher Wnen q
football team is behind the foe ana
there comes from the stands no
cheering support from ones own
hackers.
Anyone would have thought the
lives of the Mohawks and Mercurys
were at stake when committees
from the two clubs met to make
arrangements for the big contest.
Perhaps the Mohawks and Mercurys
felt pretty much that way. the
club representatives required three
hours to thrash out some OF the de-
tails in a meeting Monday night.
Then some more time was con-
sumed yesterday before the JOB
finally was done.

critic, in a recent comment, "they

College. known as one OF the
greatest coaches of the East, and
Germany Schulz, of Detroit, failed
to fathom the puZzling attacks as
launched by Marquette eleven, and
both coaches failed to present an
offense that worried the Hilltoppers.
Murray jumped into the big
league direct from the bushes. He
was coach at the West Division
High before he tackled the Mar
quette job. Many said he would
funk. But he didn't.
He is the best disciplinarf an in
the entire list OF Marquette coaches.

will of all his players, so that he
is able to present a united front for
every contest.

2S.-Yale today apologized to
Harvard because some Eli
sympathizers, not necessarily
Yale students, tore down Har-
ward colors from the Harvard
Union building after Yale's
football victory over Harvard
Saturday. The Yale News said
editorially of the act: "For
such rudeness and wretched
craftsmanship on the part of
a few, apologies are due a uni
versity which played as it al
ways plays, hard and clearly
against heavy odds, and which
took defeat splendidly."

GOVERNOR DENIES
 ANY CONTROVERSY
Says He Is Not at Odds With
 Medical Society

Hartford. Dec. 29.-Commenting on published report that members of the Connecticut medical society had appealed year ago for action on the fake doctor situation, Governor Tenn pleton said today in a prepared state ment:
 There is absolutely no controversy between the medical association and myself.
 Officers of the medical society asked me last winter to present to the general assembly bill which named a commission of eminent men to re- port back to the following legislature. This bill I handed to Senator Ellis who tells me that he laid it before the general assembly.
 "A very different one was passed by the general assembly. It contained some of the original features but also some which seemed to me very dangerous. At the same time a bill was passed validating the licenses of some 20 eclectic doctors.
 T vetoed both these bills, and sub sequent events seem to have justified my action.
 T went still further so soon as the general assembly had adjourned and set on foot an inquiry into the eclec-
