Croix. The section OF the said Colonial
Law under which such appointment was
made reads as follows:
When the popular elections are end
ed, the King VII determine whom he
will nominate as crown members Of the
respective Colonial Councils. according
to Par. ID" which reads:
The Colonial Council for the island Of
st. Croix shall consist of Is members
elected by popular elections, and 3 mem
hers nominated by the King
AS the said Colonial Law (Par 49, says:
Every person who has the right OF
NATIVITY who besides possesses the
qualification on which the right of voting
is based is eligible as a member" and as
the Status of the said An1reas Emil Stake
mann is clouded in shadow the question
is here raised whether he is eligible to
sit in the Colonial Council or legis!ati"a
body of the island under the Americal
flag.
QUESTIONS INVOLVED.
L. Is Andreas Emil Stakemann an
American Citizen or a citizen of the Vir-
gin Islands?
2. Is he eligible to hold office as a
member of the Legislative Body?
These questions will be taken up in
the order in which they are presented.
POINT l.
al Andreas Emil Srakemann is not a
citizen of the United States.
On the 10th day of April, 1925, Stake
mann was a citizen of Denmark for all
purposes. He had previously declared
his intention under the Treaty of Sale
to preserve his citizenship in Denmark.
BY such declaration he automatically
continued his allegiance to the King Of
Denmark and could therefore not be
considered as owing allegiance to the
new sovereignty (the United States) as
those who did not under the treaty pro
visions preserve their Danish citizen.
ship. He was therefore up to that
time an alien for all political purposes.
And he could not on the 25th day of
June. 1925, simply by making a decIara-
ton that he renounced his preserved
Danish citizenship, become an Ameri-
can citizen.
1t may be said, and indeed it is claim
ed by the said Stakemann, that his pre-
servation of Danish Citizenship was not
a bar to his remuneration of said pre-.
served Danish citizenship and of his
election of citizenship in the United
States and admission to the Nationality
thereof (see Treaty of Sale, Art. 6, last
portion of paragraph One).
This claim has no basis in law, and the
Treaty itself bears out this contention,
as it is expressly declared therein, in
the latter part of the said Article. that
such later remuneration Of preserved
Danish Citizenship and election of citiz,
enship in the United States should be ION

Hinkey Was Colorful.

OF Frank Hinkey. who died in
North Carolina yesterday. it NAV be
said that he probably was the most
colorful-aS he was one Of the great
est-foot ball players that the game
has ever produced No end that ever

He never missed a tackle. He met

fat on the ground: it went over him
and he met the runner Squarely. With
twist he snapped him to the ground
and Very often the runner stayed
there.
In 1894 both Princeton and Har-
ward had an understanding with Hin
key that if the runner called down
he was not to be snapped to the
earth. In practice at Yale field the
rule was that all carriers should call
down aS soon as they felt his
arms about them.
He could go as fast on all tours as
any other player could sprint and

Yale and Harvard met in Spring
field, Mass, in 1894, and Hinkey was
captain of the Blue. Two mighty
linemen, Heffelfnger and Butter
worth, played for Yale that day and
the towering negro, Lewis, was Har-
ended - men had been forced from
the field and many of them went
to hospitals. Harvard and Yale broke
off relations for a while.
Wrightington of Harvard ball
tucked under his arm, raced at Hin
keys end and the spill that followed
was terrific. The silent Captain"
hurled the Harvard runner over his
shoulder, his usual method of tao
king.
Wrightington was hurt severely
and there was a storm of criticism,
with Hinkey as the center. He was
charged with having 'kneed" the
Harvard man when he fell upon him
after the tackle. But the players of
Yale and Wrightington himself de-
MED that there had been anything
illegal. explaining that Hinkey always
had tackled in that manner and had
played clearly in the pile-up which
followed.
Frank Butterworth, who fought
that terrific engagement at Spring
field with Hinkey, said last night:
Frank Hinkey was the greatest end
that ever played foot ball He always
played a hard game. which led many
TO believe that he was a dirty player,
but such was not the case. He was
decidedly a clean player"
Of himself and the charges against
him Hinkey once said
I'm no murderer, no stranger, no
bone breaker. I have no idea of in
juring a man when / throw him, but
l do want to throw him so hard that
he will not get up before l get a
fresh grip on him so that he can't

me to do-have a couple of linemen
run from the sidelines with a soft
mattress for me to throw him on?"
Hinkey was a native of Tonawanda,
y. Y. In recent years he had been
a salesman in the South, drawn
there by the pine forests which were
supposed to help him fight his illness.

COAST FANS AWAIT
BIG GRIDIRON CLASH

BY the Associated Press.
PASADENA, Calf. December 81
The clash of two great foot ball teams,
both undefeated in their seasons play,
today was but a day away. with the
University of Washington purple
tornado, defender of the Vests grid
iron glory, expected hourly to sweep
from out of the North for the inter
sectional meeting tomorrow afternoon
with Alabama's crimson tide, invader
from the South.
Interest in the arrival of the North
westerners virtually overshadowed all
else pertaining to foot ball as fam
dom of this section awaited its first
glimpse in two Years of the Huskies,
who this season swept the coast $

ton played in the Rose Bowl against
the Navy.
Alabama lacked no supporters in
pregame discussions, for those who
have seen the crimson in action on
the Rose Bowl turf are of the opinion
that the Southerners have displayed
as neat a passing and running attack
as has been seen here in many day,
and that Washington will be tried to
the utmost before the afternoon of
January l is over.

American sports reign supreme on
the athletic field, however. Basket
ball, dodge ball, corner ball and end
ball are the four games included in
the program which is carefully super
vised by Virginia Griffith, athletic d.
rector of both the Maret School and
the Georgetown Convent of the Vista
ton.
In addition to the organized games,
Miss Griffith inaugurated a field day
last year, which will be an annual
feature of the athletic program. Mary
Stuart Luttrell was the high-point
winner in the initial event. Miss Lut-
trell also won the physical training
student most proficient in all physical
training work during the year.
Basket ball is the most popular
sport at the school. The students
range in age from 8 to II years
with the exception of a few high
school students-and among the
juniors the boys teams oppose the
girls teams in the majority of con-
tests.
Team captains are elected in a novel
manner. Each week during prelimi-
nary practice a girl and a boy are
chosen to captain their respective

groups elect a permanent captain by
popular ballot, subject to the approval
of Miss Griffith. Permanent leaders
will be elected shortly after the holi-
days, as most of the tossers have
served their turn as trial pilots.
Miss Griffith states that the girls
have won the majority of the games
played so far this season. They are
faster on their feet and more accurate
in passing The boys are better
guards, however, and if they increase
their speed a little the girls will have
a hard time scoring against them.
