ARMY TURNS DOWN
 NAVY SUGGESTION
Renewal Of Relations No Nearer
 After Futile Conference

Washington, Oct. G1 Ub)-The Army and Navy are no nearer re- sumption Of athletic relations today than two years ago when Annapolis authorities refused to play the an- nual football game with West Point because the military academy would not adopt three year eligibility rule
 This became evident after q fruit less conference between superintcn- dents of the service schools in the office of General John J. Pcrshing yesterday.
 Before the annual Army Navy football game can be resumed one Of the two schools must accode 10 the demands of the other. Nestcr- days conference proved that neither was willing to make any major con- sessions, Navy, represented by Rear Admiral $. S Robison. superintcn- dent of Annapolis, made the only offers Of compromise. Major Gen. eral William F. Smith, superinteu- dent at West Point, refused 10 con- sdor these. indicating nothing short of unconditional surrender would in- terest the Army.
 Both expressed regret at the dis rUption and hope that the breach might be healed.
 Navy Suggests Terms
 Admiral Robson first suggested that West Point limit its players to four years Of football. including timc on outside college teams, then followed with the proposal that Army adopt gradually the three year rule oyer a period Of four years, Finally hn proposed that Army limit its men to two years of intercollegiate competition outside the academy. in which case Navy would consent 10 their playing two years more on West Point teams.
 General Smith insisted that any student proficient in his studies should be eligible to represent his school in any branch of sport.
 This plan l presented to Admiral Robson as the principle Of the academy" he said after the confcr- . ence. "I do not believe in com promising in principle"
 Both Sides stand Firm
 Secretary of War Good upheld Smiths stand in a statement after the conference. declaring Army stood for the principle of absolute equality among students, and indi- eating his belief that banning good students from the athletic fields would violate that principle.
 Secretary of Navy Adams placed . blame for the failure of the con- ference. by indirection. upon Gen. | eral smith, tcrming the difference ' of opinion 'an honest one" hut l pointing out that Smith "rcfuscd to | make any compromise offers" He . expects both Smith and Robison 10 . yield to some extent" however. i
 The Army and Navy last mot in . football in 1926. when great game | at Soldiers field, Chicago. ended in . a 2t-21 tie. The The annual .umc ranked as among the greatest if not the greatest game each year, in point of national interest.

DARTMOUTH ELEVEN HOPES
 TO THROW OFF YALE LINK
Green Has Never Beaten Blue and Has Scored Only 2 Points Against 1t-Prnceton Favored Over Chi cago - Florida Expected to Give Harvard Real Battle-Penn and Navy Evenly Matched Brown Holy Cross Outcome Uncertain

New York, Oct 31 P)-Many of the leading eastern football wars next Saturday will lack the "grudgo fight element, but the Yalc-Dart- mouth battle at New Haven will bristle with enough of it to make up for all the rest Ever since the Blue journeyed into the hills of Han over in 1SS& to trim the Green by 1l3 to 0, the White Indians have been trying in vain to corner the bulldog.
 The closest Dartmouth approach to victory was in 1924. in the re- neWal Of the series after lapse of 2% seasons. The Green entered the bowl a tavorite that afternoon. but iE the end Eddie Doolcy had to be satisfied with q l4 to fl draw and the first points the Green ever SCOT cd against the Blue. No game was played in 1925. but Dartmouth was favored in 1926 and 1927. only to see the Ellis win twice. The Green never was dangerous in the 192S game, which went to Yale by IS to 0
 The net result of the series to date, from Dartmouth standpoint, is: ? points scored. one tie and II defeats. The Green remains a favor ite to turn the tide on Saturday, but confidence in the Blue is growing. and the teams may enter the bow all even.

Ex-President's Story of Re-
nomination Fight Cited by
New York Leader.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 10-Vindication
for his part in the draft Coolidge move
ment was seen today by Charles d.
Hilles, Republican national committee
man from New York, in Calvin Cool
idge's Cosmopolitan Magazine article in
which he told why he did not choose TO
run.
Mr.. Hilles was leader Of the Coolidge
movement and only swung his support
to Herbert Hoover when told at the con-
vention by Everett Sanders, secretary
to the President, that Mr.. Coolidge did
not desire State delegations to vote for
him.
Coolidge Sent Sanders.
In his magazine article Mr.. Coolidge
told of sending Mr. Sanders to the con-
vention to notify leaders of his wishes
in order to forestall a possible nominal
ton by the convention.
Mr.. HilleS said that until Mr.. Sanders
visit to him he did not know whether
President Coolidge wanted to be re-
nominated.
II believe I was justified, previous to
receiving that message from Sanders, /"
said Mr.. Hilles, Gin thinking the Presi-
dent would accept the nomination.
He had refused to amplify his state
ment that he did not choose to run.
One of my friends asked him directly
If he would turn down the nomination
in case the convention drafted him.
Mr. Coolidge looked this man straight
in the eye and never blinked. But he
didn't say word.
Believed Coolidge Undecided.
"I thought then, and Mr.. Coolidge's
statement in the Cosmopolitan vindi-
Gates me, that he had not fully decided
and that he probably would have looked
upon such draft as call to an in
escapable duty"
Mr.. Hilles said that the Sunday prior
to the convention Senator Butler, at
that time chairman Of the Republican
national committee, said in reply to a
question by Hoover supporter that he

of Federal Power Since the Civil War;"
Miss Wheeler won third place when
she launched her schools finals at a
meet that was to be hard-fought and
of h!gh-quality speakers. If there was
to be any competition at all, And the
orators who followed her kept up the
standards and gave her competition
Miss Wheeler attained expression with
interesting turns of infection. There
was a maturity about her voice which
gave a finesse not often recognized In
high school student speeches.
Miss Margaret Adams Olney was
Westerns second contestant to take the
stage. She spoke on 1.-The Development
of the Constitution" in voice that re-
manned in fairly high key throughout
her speech. There was perhaps less of
the maturity which characterized Miss
tinctive charm about this second speak
ers voice. She is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. H. w. Olney of 719 Thirteenth
street.
The third speaker, and the first Of
the, three boys on the program, was
Edwin C. McClintock, jr. Although he
did not place" among the announced
winners, this 15-year-old sophomore put
up a fight with his Grafton on 1.-THE
Citizen: His Privileges and Duties Under
the Constitution that bids fair to
make him one of Westerns strongest
hopes for the next two years. He is the
son of DR.. McClintock. retired dentist,
and Mrs McClintock of 1400 North Oak
street, Clarendon, Va.
Thompson Speaks.
Thompson, winner of second honors,
IVES the fourth orator to offer his
forensic bid. A tall, manly-appearing
lad with resonant voice, Thompson
eased into his speech with a CONVEX
sational tone which characterized his
entire delivery. He brought his ora
ton up to the minute by declaring
that the people of the United States
today are fast approaching tyranny
in the widening circle of legisla-
ton, which threatens such constitution
al principles as personal liberty, free
dom of speech and freedom of the
press.
Europe" he said, "is watching us
with establishment as we forge our
own shackles" by allowing minorities
to rule through indifference to the voice
and privileges the Constitution guaran-
tees its people.
Grinioff was the concluding speaker.
Ills OratlOn on FORWARD, America
was rich in its personality. There was
expression in his speech and an ear
neStneSs that was convincing, that here
in this son of a former Russian noble
man, who was an official of old Rus
sia's embassy here before the World
War, and who since has died amidswar-
imposed misfortune here, was convic-
ton of his beliefs and assertions.
Grinioff considered the Constitution as
living organ, capable of change to
meet the modern times, and he de-
clared that If the Constitutions trainers
had a huge task in creating it, present
day Americans have the greater task of
protecting themselves as individuals
under it.
Grinioff now lives with his mother,
Mrs. Olga Grinioff, at 1928 Twenty
second street, and he is one Of the most
popular students at Western.
