stadium at Cambridge in the last meeting be-
tween Princeton and Harvard riot was
seething on both Sides when Lawler the Prince
ton end, brought down Miller, burly Harvard
back, and then unavoidably rolled over on him.
AT the moment of attack Miller was seized with
stomach cramps and lay the field kicking
his legs. The sight of the crimson jerSeyed
figure writhing in pain aroused the Harvard
partisans. A regular chorus of boos and Kisses
swept across the field to the Princeton section.
They took up the cue and booed back. Silence
was restored when the referee who watched
the play and held Lawler in no way respon-
sible. ran over to the Harvard side and shouted:
MILLER has a cramp; cut out the razzing.'
However, the incident afforded the two uni
verSities a chance to let OF steam and show
their painful dislike for each other. Up to that
time the tension was so marked that one suS-
pected at any moment both student bodies were
only too eager to rush across the field and grab
each others threats.
If Princeton and Harvard were alone In car
rying on an athletic feud they might be more
severely criticized, but the practice Is an old
one. deep-rooted in the very elements which
have added color and thrills to ali competitive
sports. Stage continuing says that feuds were
encouraged in the old days. and even today they
are part OF all strenuous, man-to-man games.

Washington, March l1.-(F)-More
encouragement over the situation in
Mexico was drawn today by admins

patches from that country, but they
still were keeping close watch on
events south Of the Rio Grande.
Acceleration Of efforts to assist the
Mexican government In putting down
the revolution was one development
OF the day, the war department as
sembling 10000 field rifles with large
quantities Of ammunition for which
the government to the south has
asked for surplus stores in this coun-
try.
Explaining that the details Of the
supplies requested by Mexico are mil
itary secrets which should not be
divulged, secretary Of war Good de-
clined to amplify his previous an
nounccmcntS on this subject.
Disposition Of the 800 federal troops
and their families from Juarez who
were given asylum last week at Fort
Bliss after they had crossed into Ell
Paso formed the subject of confer
ences between state and war depart
ment officials. It was disclosed that
Brig. General George Won Horn Nose
ley, commanding at Fort Bliss had re-
ported that he had made no agree
ment with the rebels which would
prevent the return of the federal force
to Mexico at any time. It was re-
garded as likely however that action
by the Washington government would
be deferred pending communications
from Mexico City.
State department officials said
there had been no decision as to what
attitude the United States would take
In event the federal forces advancing
from the south should force some Of
the rebels into American territory.
They added. however, that the prob
abilities were that they would be
interned in accordance with the pro-
visions of the 1928 Havana convention
which has been ratified by Mexico but
which still is awaiting action by the
United States senate.
Secretary Kellogg stated emphati-
cally that the rebels had not been
recognized as belligerents by the
American government and that no
such recognition would be extended.
He reiterated that there was no indi-
cation that any Americans on the

HOOVER KEEPS OPEN
Mind ON means OF
ENFORCING DRY Law
Has Never Endorsed voIstead
Act; Views Center About the
Eighteenth Amendment
STUDIES ACT NOTIFICATIONS
Will Appoint Commission After
Consultation With Off,
cials and Jurists

Washington, March 1l.-lP)-Pres-
ident Hoover as he casts about for
the members Of his law enforcement
commission Is believed to be keeping
an open mind on the Volstead act as
. medium Of enforcing the prohibi-
ton amendment, which he has an
nounced he wishes to see succeed.
This Is indicated by the context OF
what he has had to say on the SUBJ
iect Of prohibition. one OF the FORE
most issues in his campaign for the
presidency. In all Of his pronounce
ments from the time Of his reply to
the QUESTIONABLE Of Senator Borah of
Idaho, more than :'ear ago down to
the present time there has been no
mention Of the volstead act and con-
sequently no endorsement Of It.
Each time Mr.. Hoover has discussed
prohibition his reference has been di-
rectly to the eighteenth amendment.
Those who profess to know Mr..
Hoover's views regard this as q stud
led attitude and one leaving him
free to deal with amendments to the
present dry laws should the investiga-
ton Of his national commission shows
to his satisfaction that such amend
ments would aid in making the
eighteenth amendment more effective
Viewing the whole situation the
eyes Of an engineer and an executive
and not those Of dry leader. Mr..
Hoover long ago recognized the abuses
which have grown up around the ef-
forts to enforce prohibition and I'M
mediately after his nomination he de-
termined II elected he would name
commission to make investigation
with view to supplying remedy.
At the time ct his acceptance
speech information came from what
were regarded as authoritative sources
that the inquiry would 90 into the
volstead oct itself and that il the
fctS disclosed that = liberalization Of
TIT act within the scope and intent
Of the eighteenth amendment was
likely to result In better enforcement,
recommendations to that end could
be expected.
Just what attitude the dry organ
izations Of the country would be II
modification Of the Volstead act were
proposed. however, remains for the
future. Heretofore, they have active
ly and effectively opposed any at
tempt at modification and at the
same time have been able to have
written into the original act pro-
visions designed to give 1t more
teeth.
It may be a month or more before
appointments to the commission are
announced by Mr.. Hoover as he de-
sires to consult not only with his law
enforcement officials but also with
jurists and prominent members Of
the bar.
The commissions work Is to en-
brace . critical review Of the whole
Of federal justice and this
task Is Of such magnitude that its
completion within even 4 year Is re-
garded as well-nigh impossible.

Legislators Disregarded Gov
ernor's Plea by $4,000
Appropriation Boost
C0NTEMPLATES USING VETO
Reduction Of States Taxes
Probable, Due to Absence Of
Levy for Soldier Bonus

Governor George F. 6hafer today
was contemplating the prospect OF
an economy administration.
In his inaugural address the execu-
tive stressed economy as the watch
word Of his administration. The idea
was enthusiastically endorsed by in
dividual members OF the LEGISLATURE
who then proceeded to pass bills ap-
propriating some $778.00O more than
was appropriated for the present BIZ
ennium.
The governor. who is spending most
OF his time studying the bills await
Ing his signature. indicated this
morning that he is fully aware Of this
situation. The impression ut the gov
ernor's office was that he intended to
do something about it and the only
thing he can do Is to veto some Of
the appropriations.
Governor Shafer offered no com.
ment on this score other than to ad-
nit that he is contemplating . veto
for some Of the measures before him.
Under the law the governor may
not reduce appropriations made by
the legislature to figure which he
thinks proper. He can, however,
eliminate certain appropriation items
from the bills as passed and this Is
expected to happen In some instances.
Regardless OF whether any appro-
priattons are vetoed, q reduction In
state taxes is probable. since the levy
for the soldiers bonus will not be
made this year, all payments due un-
der the bonus law having been paid.
Had the appropriations for the COM
ing biennium been the same as for
the last two years q reduction in the

have been possible. As It Is the re-
