 The attorney argued his client Ia entitled to protection in the same degree as are other public utility owners. including the Connecticut Co.

 MT. Flicksineer placed the Con- ,necticut Go, on record as agreeable to accept the will of residents of Stanley Quarter as interpreted by tho commission. He said a higher fare than is charged by the inde- pendent operator Is charged to dis courage competition.

 Nair Criticizes Mayor
 Announcement of the committees finding was the signal for Council man Nair to arise and criticize the practice of turning over to 8. com mittee of the common council a matter which. he claimed, should have gone into the council
 The mayor should have held the meeting himself, instead of delegat- ing the matter to a committed" he said.
 Referring to Alderman John F. MaerE, the councilman criticized a motion made in the common ciun- ell to table indefinitely the question of eliminating bus competition,
 Gan you imagine such a plan as that" the councilman asked the commissioners. Was he serving the interests of the public?" he added as he continued 10 condemn the policy of indefinitely tabltng matters of importance.
 Mayor Paonessa arose and outlin- ed the organization of the city gov ernment, explaining there are con- n1ittees to handle all details of muni- cipal business, and the procedure followed in this case was the same as is customary in all others. "Coun- cilman Nair knows this and should know better than to criticize" the mayor concluded.

YALE LOOKING FORWARD
TO oLYMPIAD OF 1923

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct. 20.-
That Yale may send a crew to the
next Olympic championship races
has been pointed out by the Yale
Daily News, which said that Yale
became the outstandingv crew in
the world by winning the Olmpic
title in 1924, and that, after break
ing records in winning the right
to represent the United States in
France, the Yale crew set new
time in defeating Canada for the
worlds title.
The News states that Yale win
be called upon to defend its title,
and that members Of the present
freshman class crews viii then be
rowing on the university squad.
The next Olympic games will be
held in Holland in 1928.
The appeal OF the News was made,
to members of the freshman class,
who have responded less generally
to the call of Coaches Ed Leader
and George Murphy than usual. A
larger representation Of members
of the class of 1920 on the rowing
Yale may make its hardest effort
to continue it's achievement Of win
ming the freshman races on the
Thames and the Housatonic, but
that in 1928 the members of the
present freshman class who win
varsity crew seats may have
possible chance at another Olympic
title.

PLAi ING IS
HIGH CLASS :.
v. M. I. Boasts OF Real Triple
Threat Back Equal to.
the Best

LEXINGTON, Va. Oct. 2O.-Al-
though ". M. I. dropped close
and hard-fought game to Virginia
Saturday, Coaches Clarkson and
Raftery are well pleased with the
DEVELOPMENT of their team since
the beginning Of the season. The
green Cadet line played a magnifi-
cent game, and If the Cavaliers
had not been SO quick to take adj
vantage of v. M. l. fumbles. the
credit for winning the game could
easily have been given to v. M. LIS
forwards. 2
The Virginia game proved again
that Windy White, Cadet triple
threat, is one of the great backs
of the country. His running, pass.
ing, punting, place kicking, and
powerful defensive play stamp him
as unusually versatile as well as
an outstanding star in every de-
partment Of the game.
The Cadets uncovered another
stellar performer in Dutch" Diet
rich. who made the first touch
down of the game. DIETRICH will
graduate next June, though this is
his first year out for the team.
He was injured in the Cavalier
fracas, but will probably be in
shape to play against North Carolina
State, at Richmond, Saturday. Shep
Mondy, the Richmond boy who is
playing a strong game at center,
and O'Berry, seventeen-year-old
guard, were also crippled in the
Virginia game, but the coaches hope.
to be able to use them against the
,Wolfpack. 1t is possible that Jim
Smith, who was hurt in the Roa-
noke game, will also be in shape for
next Saturdays affair.
AS heavy as the v. M. I! young
ster line is, the Cadets will probably
be outweighed by the North Caro-
lima State Wolfpack. The North
Carolinians, benefited by q ten
day rest since their game with
North Carolina University, are ex-
pected to give the Flying Squadron
all sorts Of trouble in the Richmond
fray. There will be no let'up in
" M. rs practice sessions this
week. as coaches and players feel
that the team has found itself, and
no effort viii be spared in order
to repeat last years victory over
the Wolfpack.

,PennsyIvanians Work Hard in
/ Preparation for Saturdays
Game Here

LEWISBBRG, Pa, Oct. 20.-With
one of the hardest games Of the sea-
son disposed of in a fairly salts
factory manner, In the scoreIess tie
with the Haskell Indians last Satur-
day, the, Bucknell Bisons settled
down to hard training here yester-
day for their first foreign contest
Of the season, that with the George
town University eleven at Washing
ton. Saturday.
There is a possibility that the
Orange and Blue gridders may 30
through their schedule undefeatcd.
but the probability that they will do
so is not great. The Georgetown
team showed Detroit under a 24-to-O
score Saturday and did 1t impress
sively; Holy Cross revealed stone
wall defense in their 7-to-6 victory
over Harvard, and Dickinson laced
Franklin and Marshall to the tune
of to 0. All three winners are on
the Bison card, so it is apparent
that the Bisons have rough shedding
ahead.
Every one who witnessed the game
with the Haskells was of the opin-
ionthat it was one of the best ever
staged in the new stadium. The
slippery field was a handicap to
both teams and made long runs
virtually impossible. Time and again
the backs, especially the Orange
and Blue, broke away from oppos-
ing tacklers and appeared certain
to make, big gain, only to go down
when a muddy spot was struck.
The. Bucknell coaches were pleased
with the work Of their charges and
are working hard in preparation
for the Georgetown conflict.

HILLTOP STARS
ARE FACING
REAL TEST
Neither Georgetown Nor Buck
nell, Who Meet Saturday,
Have Lost a Game

The first gridiron battle of real
proportions to be staged in the
Capital during the present campaign
takes place Saturday afternoon at
Griffith Stadium, when the fast
travelling Georgetown eleven meets
Busknell. There is everything
needed for a big attraction. Both
colleges have heavy, fast teams.
neither has been defeated so far
this season, each has gone through
the early contests in impressive
fashion, and, finally, there is. the
keenest sort Of rivalry born out of
annual meeting in all branches OF
sports.
The feeling gradually is growing
upon the Hilltop student body that
Coach Little has developed a. truly
great team. The combination has
been brought along in even fashion,
taking opponents in stride, and
each week sees the Blue and Gray
displaying more finished play. Saturs
days decisive victory over Detroit
was. everything that could be j. de-
sired. The backs ran wild behind
perfect interference Wnue the 1Or-
wards opened holes that carts could
pass through. On defense, the Hill
toppers We're never seriously
threatened. The fast-charging line
men spilled the Detroit attack time
and again for heavy losses.
Last Saturday, Bucknell took on
the Haskell Indians, one Of the
feature elevens Of the country. The
game resulted in scoreless tie, al
though reports OF the contest show
that the Pennsylvanians had the
edge on their red-skin opponents.
Bucknell has aspirations of going
through the season with clean
slate. Singularly, Georgetown is
gripped with the same desire. Acy
cordingly, Washington should see
a real argument when the two com
binations come together Saturday.
A new Hilltop star was uncovered
in the Detroit game McCabe, who
has been battling valiantly' all this
fall for the pilots berth, was in
serted in the Detroit game as a
halfback in the last quarter. He
ran through the Michigan forwards
at will, tore off several gains OF
forty yards, then scored the final
touchdown Of the game with a
twenty three-yard dash through the
entire Detroit team.
