MEXICAN CATHOLICS
MAKE NEW APPEAL

7 .tition Congress Not to Turn
Down Plea for Fewer Restrictions
Without Debate.
BY the Associated Press.
MEXICO CITY, September 90
Roman Catholics, who recently petit
toned Congress to amend the constitu-
ton so as to ease the restrictions of
the present laws on religion, today sent
further memorial to the national
legislature 1t contained arguments in
support of the petition.
This step was taken in the hope OF
inducing Congress to debate the petit
ton instead Of rejecting 1t without dis
cussion, as has appeared probable. The
Senate committee on constitutional
points has made no report to the upper
branch on the petition.

- HAMPAIGN. III, April 2l.-Ths
action OF West Point officials
in scheduling an Army Illinois
~ game to be played here in 1929,
with return game set for
New York in 1890. has added another
strong Eastern team to the list of thoss
which have broken the East-West bar
rier. OF all the big Eastern schools,
Yale now remains the only one which
has consistently declined to send its
foot ball team this far West.
The Navy was the first u the service
elevens to come into the Middle West,
playing Michigan. Other Eastern col
leges. which have played or contracted
to play Middle Western teams are Dart
mouth. Princeton, Pennsylvania and
Cornell. Harvard has homeland -honie
arrangement with Michigan.
The exact date for the 1929 game
will be set later. It will be played az
the University of Illinois Memorial
Stadium West Point officials favored
playing the game at Soldier Field, Chi
cago, but asSented 70 the wishes of Ill
nois officials, who believed II would BE-
an injustice to deprive the ma jOrity Of
the university's student body Of q
chance to see the game, as would De
the case II the game were played IN
Chicago.
Selection of the Memorial Stadium,
with its much smaller seating capacity,
also is pointed to by university cfiicials
as an answer to the cry of Commercial
ism." which has been raised In the past
against intersectional games.
Possibility of other Army games
against Big Ten competition in 1929
and 1880 has been noted In conferences
between Army officials and athletic
leaders at the Universities OF Wiscon-
sin, Chicago and Iowa.

n TEW YORK. April "a. - Seeking
to fill the hole left in its sched-
VI ule by the breaking of Of ath-
4 letic relations with the Naval
Academy, the Army has signed
a home-and- d-home contract with the
University of Illinois for foot ball games
in 1929 and 1880.
Under the agreement, formally ap-
proved by the Secretary Of War, the
Army will travel TO Urbana to meet
the Illini in November of next year
Illinois will come East for the return
game against the cadets either at New
York or West Point in the same month
of 1880. The exact dates have not yet
been fixed
Foot ball observers saw in the agree
ment additional confirmation OF the
belief that there was little chance OF
the Navy and Army adjusting their
differences over eligibility rules for
some years TO come at least.
The cadets schedule for this year
calls for a game either at New York
or West Point against Nebraska on No
vember "a. the date on which the ira
ditional struggle with the Navy would
have been staged. Notre Dame is met
at New York on November 10 this
year, but will take over the last spot
on Army's schedule the following year.
Observers expected that Nebraska,
with which the cadets have only one
year contract, would be dropped after
1923 and the Illini substituted In the
vacant place-probably on November
8. 1929, and corresponding date in
1880.
The cadets trip West to meet the
Illini in 1929 will mark the first time
the soldiers have played an intersec-
tional opponent in the West 1t will
also be the first time the Army has
clashed with big Ten" team since
Chicago was defeated at West Point
in 1908
