CENTRAL TRIUMPH
PUTS THREE IN TIE
Tech, Eastern Share First
Place With Conqueror
of Western.

NCE again in the public high
school foot ball title series
has ended in a draw. Central,
Eastern and Tech all are tied
for the crown at three wins
and one loss each. Tech also was In
d tie for the title last Fall with West
ern. The Red team. however, this
year finished at the bottom OF the
/ heap, failing to win a single game.
Westerns last defeat came yester-
day at the hands of Central in
/ throbbing 1877 game. 1t was a heart
4 breaking trouncing for Coach Ahern's
valiant boys, who had victory
h snatched from them in the dying
moments of the fray. Central scored
the winning touchdown when john
son blocked Garber's punt, which was
hurried because of a bad pass, and
Dinkin fell on the ball behind the
] Western goal. Dinkin place-kicked
{ Tor the point.
All other scoring was confined to
/ the second period, when each eleven
registered a touchdown.
Western started the game without
Capt Wilson. Brownfield and CARRIER,
/ q trio of aces. At that the boys of
GEORGETOWN contrived to hold Central
until the latter part Of the first period
when the Blue and White got the
ball on the rival flve-yard line. Early
IN the second quarter Stevens went
across for the tally. Dinkin's ac-
curate kick for goal was not allowed
because Central was offside.
Striking back with determination
Western began a march, which
shortly ended in Schneider going
over. CARRIERS drop-kick for point
was true.
In the third period Western drove
tosCentrars three-yard line before the
Blue and White line held. Neither
Threatened to count again until Gen.
trails bid in the closing stages, which
brought it's winning touchdown.
Little Gene Stevens and Capt. Sim
mons were the mainsprings in Gen.
trails attack, and Kline, Johnson and
CARRIER gave stalwart exhibitions.
For Western. Capt. Wilson, Sch.
neider, Brownfield and Park played
In bang-up fashion.
While Western failed to win a single
series game, the team, handicapped by
lack of seasoned material and ineligi-
bility, proved no set-up for any team.
No eleven was able to beat Coach
Ahern's plucky boys by more than a
single touchdown.

 Coohdge's Plan

Paris, Feb. IS P-France's reply to the naval disarmament proposals of President Coolidge, as drafted by Foreign Minister Briand, was unani- mously approved at a cabinet meet ing today. It will be forwarded to Washington immediately and will be made public tomorrow morning.
 As forecast in these dispatches the reply, it was indicated after the cabinet meeting. will point out that the eI.ague of Nations is already considering the disarmament ques- ton in it's relation to all nations, as distinguished from the group of na- tions mentioned by Mir. Coolidge. France. it will say. has no desire to take the question out of the leagues hands
 In drafting the reply. NJ. Briand took great pains to make it appear as little as possible like a flat re- lection. at the same time making it clear that France adheres positive ly for the moment to the league pre- paratory commissions scheme, which links naval with land disarm- ament.
 It is understood the note left the door open for the Washington gov nrnment to make suggestions con- corning the continued efforts of the preparatory commission, which IS working under league auspices with .bo oolIo horation of American dele gates.

Of Mayor Weld who is confned to his home by illness and although he had nothing more than last min ute notification he delivered an in teresting address. The acting mayor stressed the importance in a con- munity of organizations like the Y. NJ. T. A. & B. society. He ex- pressed a hope that the society would be generously supported and aided not only by it's members, but also by the general public which must have an interest in so com mendahle a work, he remarked.
 Father Traynor reminded the so- ciety of the need for continued tenn perance work. The fact that prohi- hition has been accepted should no, result in a )essening of temperance activity, he warned. as there is stil much for the Tabs" to do.
 He pointed to the possibilities for moral, mental and physical uplift the various departments of the new 1 home afforded. In behalf Of the so-
 ciety he thanked the church and state officials for their presence. and 1 as chaplain of the society and pastor l of the church to which a majority o1 | the members belong. he offered his personal congratulations. The evil! i of drink and the necessity of giving , young men an attractive place where wholesome companionship may bt 1 had are the main reasons for the ex. i istence of the society. Father Tray nor reminded and he urged that con- | tinued effort be expended along the
 lines Of stamping out the former an( making available to a greater mum i Der the latter.
