Experts Unable to Settle on Out

New York. Nov. so Ld1-lt begins
to look as if the east will have to
do without a football champion this
year. In 1927 the experts got out
of difficulties by nominating Yale
and Pittsburgh as joint holders Of
the crown. At the moment it would
seem that six or seven teams should
be rated about equally and to name
that many 10 one throne would
make the royal perch a bit uncom-

that tomorrow's few but important

the Eagles defeat Holy Cross, must

To find salmon spawning i'll the upper reaches of the Fraser, once the greatest salmon breeding watere ir the world, is like hunting for a needle in haystack," says the an naal report of the provincial fisheries department.

DISQUIETING RUMORS

Current rumor has it that Presi- dent Coolidge will not send tn } name of Roy O. West, the new Sec retary of the Interior to the Senate fo' confirmation when Congress con yones next December.
 Under the law, a recess appoint ee holds office until the end of the next session of congress. In this ease, that will be the end of Mir. Coondge's term in the White House and of course the end of Mr Vests term in the Interior Departmen.
 The idea, of course, is to avoid the fight which the administration knows the Progressive Republicans and ot9er Senators will make against V ost's confirmation.
 The Secretary of the Interior is ex officio member Of the Federal Wat e.. Power Commission, which has su- preme authority over power pro jects on the public domain BouId- er Dam, for example
 But MT. West is the lieutenant Of Sam Insult the power magnate of Chicago, and the biggest single unit oe the Power Trust In effect, Vests appointment put the Power Trast in the cabinet
 Even if Vests name is not sent in. the fireworks are likely to break out, anyway. But, of course, the Senate cannot reject al appointment not sent in.-LABOR, Washington, D. c.

 And while the sadness sat like cloud of gloom upon the brows of tile ci'y solons they went further thal that and decided to return the license money of $2.50 that has already been paid in by several automobile owners wEo live adjacent to the city. They seemed to hate to do it because what with the new school. the Lowei Creek Hume, the dog poisoner re- ward and the high tariff on wet put ty nd everything, Seward need every dollar she can get
 Ii seems that the fee had been gladly paid by several persons aroun I the fringes of the city and who tho. it only right that they might contri- bUte 2 small amount toward the up- keep of the city streets.
 There was one, however, who flat ly refused to pay and defed the chief or police and the council to make hin pay The matter was argued before ard argued again last night regard ing the legality of the assessment of the license fee and as to whether it could be legally collected from one who did not live within the corporal" confines of the city but who never theless used the streets Of the cit. to drive around on his business or pleasure
 It was decided that it wasn't worth while to go to the mat ale* ton, Rather give.up try c1.c $25o than going to court about it. and in the meantime pay back to those who had made no kick. But as was said, there was 3 vengeful gleam, and local traffic regulations will be strictly enforced in some directions.
