JONES WILL NOT
 ATTEND MEETING
Army Coach Declines to Reopa
 Army.MYy Controversy

New York. Jan. 3s (UP)-Bin Jones, coach of the United States military academy football team made public a telegram last night in which Major General E. B. Winans. super. intendent of tho academy declined to reopen the Army-Navy football controversy.
 Tho telegram was addressed to Congressman Hamilton Fish who had invited General Winans to at- tend a proposed conference with Ad- miral L. NJ. Mutton. superintendent of the naval academy in an attempt to heal the athletic breach between the two academies.
 Admiral Mutton had agreed to the conference suggested and the war department. through General Sum- merall. chief of stan, announced that 1t expected the military academy to do likewise.
 The telegram read:
 T am in receipt of your telegram of January 26 inviting me to meet with you and Admiral Mutton at the Harvard club on March l.
 ''I can see no valid reason for at- tending such 8 conference.
 Admiral Mutton and I, the two responsible superintendents, on January made public an announce ment of our mutual decision that the Army and Navy football game of 1928 would not be played. This &C., ton on my part was taken after careful consideration of my official responsibility for the balanced edu- cation and development of future of- flcers of the army In which equality of opportunity in all activities of the academy is fundamental. A prin- ciple is thus involved, which cannot be compromised.
 As superintendent of the military academy I am convinced that fur ther public agitation or discussion of the subject can only result in harm to the best interests of the two services.
 Under these conditions. while ] thank you for the invitation. I am unable to accept 1t.
 "Major-General E. B. Winans."

To Leave Teams Alone

Washington. Jan. 2S (UP)-An- napolis and West Point should be left to work out their own contro- versy over the annual Army-Navy football game. Representative Me- Clintic, Oklahoma, democrat, and a member of the house naval affairs committee said today.
 When informed that Maj. Gen. Winans. superintendent of the mili- tary academy had declined to fur thcr discuss the athletic relations, McClintic said:
 T don't think that 1t will result in any ill-effect to tho efficiency of either service. It Is unethicsl, I be- lieve. for any member of congress to step into the controversy. They should be left to work out the prob lem themselves"
 Rep. Britten. Illinois republican. member of the affairs committee. disagreed with McClintic. However he said he would continue to believe that there is a common ground upon which the two academy heads may meet and reach . compromise"
 Britten said that he did not know of any political pressure being brought to bear on either academy for a resumption of athletic good will

No Free Papers

The street sales of the
local Republican daily must
be falling off.
At least we take it that
way since the evening paper
last night carried front
page box stating that two
papers are being distributed
here free of charge and me-
ntioning one of the two as
the Arizona Gazette of Phoe-
nix.
The Republican owner of
the local daily has another
guess coming when he infers
that The Gazette is being
distributed free by The
Gazette. The Gazette is be-
ing paid for every one of its
papers distributed here.
AS to the other paper be.
ing circulated free We do not
know who he is referring too.
AT least, it's undoubtedly
not the Nogales International
for The International, since
its big successful circulation
drive a few months ago when
it managed to acquire the
largest circulation in the
local field, does not need to
distribute papers free of
charge any more.
The international has the
largest circulation of any
newspaper in this district-a
home-delivered circulation
which intensively covers the
field.
