=. Negotiations were Immediate
ly begun between Perry w. Howard
grand legal advisor, and New York
Elks for the purpose of settling diff
ferences and holding the convention
in New York City in August.
The 28th annual meeting of the
grand ledge of the Improved Bene-
violent and Protective Order of Elks
of the World may be held in New
York City August % if New York
Elks will meet the conditions pro
posed by Grand Legal Advisor How
ara after New York Elks were un-
successful in obtaining an injunction
against the grand lodge meeting in
any other city than New York.
In order to have Grand Exalted
Ruler j. Finley Wilson to revoke his
last proclamation calling the grand
lodge to meet at Cleveland and issue
another proclamation calling the
meeting of the grand lodge in New
York City, New York Elks will have
to insure the safety of grand lodge
officers and delegates.
$4,000 Bond
The conditions proposed to New
York Elks are that they put up $780,
600 either in indemnity bonds or in
cash to secure grand lodge officers
and delegates from any arrests un-
der the injunction in New York state
against the Improved Benevolent and
Protective Order of Elks, give the
grand exalted ruler adequate police
protection, pay all costs including
attorneys fees of the litigation and
get the approval of the grand exalted
ruler of all programs and entertain
pents.
THESE eendisiaasg were acceptable
to some of the representatives of
New York Elks attending the court
hearing here Monday. Others thought
that the terms were too eXacting.
The belief was expressed here, how
ever, that these conditions would be
met and the grand exalted ruler
would issue another proclamation
calling the convention to meet in
New York City.
Hearing on Injunction
At the hearing of the injunction
case brought against the grand lodge,
J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted rul-
err and George Z. Bates, grand Sec
retary. Judge Clarke refused to issue
an injunction against the holding of
the grand lodge in any other city
than New York. He gave New York
Elks until 80 days prior to the time
of the meeting to dissolve the injunc-
tion against the Improved Benevo-
lent and Protective Order of Elks.
The Judge took the position that
law can not be repealed CT an injunc-
tion dissolved by its violation.
Injunction in Ohio
During the hearing it developed
that there also is an injunction
against the Improved Benevolent and
Protective Order Of Elks in the state
of Ohio. Upon an inquiry from Judge
Runyon as td whether the grand
lodge would hold its 1927 session at
Cleveland in violation of this injunc-
ton Grand Legal Advisor Howard
told him that if that injunction yet
exists he would recommend to the
grand ruler that the convention be
held in some state where there is no
Injunction against the order and
would suggest the city of Newark,
NJ.
Elks present in the courtroom in
terpreted this remark to mean that
in the event the injunction in New
York state is not dissolved or New
York Elks fail to meet the conditions
proposed the grand lodge session will
be held in Newark instead of Cleve-
land.

Cup FOR u. S.
Comeback by Army-in-India
Team Fails-Americans Get
Second Victory, 8-5

New York.. Sept. 15.-tP)-Interna-
tional polo supremacy rests in the
United States until 1880. A courage
Gus comeback by the British chal-
longing team fell short of it's objec-
tive yesterday at the Meadowbrook
club, and Americas big four dashed
off with its second straight victory,
this time by score of 8 to 5.
With a revamped lineup, the in
vaders strove to atone for their Ii
to 3 defeat in the first match. For
the last seven chukkers they matched
goal with the veteran Yankees and
it was only because of first period
salvo of three goals by Tommy Hitch
cock, the brilliant American forward,
that the defenders were able to con-
clude the series without the neces
sity of a third game.
The margin of Americas victory
yesterday was the closest it has been
held to in international play. In the
1924 series, the same big four won
by scores Of 1876 and 14-5.
Yesterdays triumph was the sixth
for the United States in the last sew
en- series. In the last nine years of
British American rivalry the United
States has won six victories to three
by Great Britain.

With indications that Mandan high

Over 40 are reporting for practice.
The weight of the Mandan team
may not be as great this year as last,

The backfield this year will prob
ably be composed of the same men as
last year: Heidi, Mcdonald, Jarvis

for a real assault on the heavyweight
champion today.
For three straight days Gene had
evaded thea heat wave by training
with society friends at Lake Fore st

called for six rounds of boxing with
three sparring partners and several
rounds Of bag punching.

Gene had lodged the heavy train

the belief that the loss i'm weight

in nervous energy due to the humid

might come of short boxing drills.

that he was ready when he left
