This mid October
Monday finds many a

ing apart last Satur-
days football games,
and we intend to be no
exception.
The Navy-Yale game, played
under a soft, summary sun and
amid a brilliant ensemble COM
bining two shades of blue, was
something to jerk you out of
your seat.
Breaks decided that game-two
bad breaks in which John Sneed
Schmidt wore the mantle OF
Navy's goat.
outside of Schmidt's crushing
luck, which turned on him at
mercileSs moments and distinctly
Swayed the trend of battle, Navy
had by yards the better team.
Navy Gets Bearings
After the first six minutes of
play during which Yale hustled
itself to an early touchdown with
out benefit of conversion, Nays
power and passing plays were
superior to Yale's. But Nays
luck was all bad.
Six points behind, Navy stiff
fened and started to gain both on
the ground and in the air. Bill
Ingram, their trigger man,
faxed passes by holding the ball
up as if to throw, and then
caught Yale completely off guard
by running around an end or
cutting off a tackle for repeated
gains.
Then, when Yale started to
look for a running attack as
result of Migrants intrigue, the
latter passed effectively, making
IS yards on two attempts and
putting Navy in scoring position
for it's first touchdown, which
was accomplished by switching
back to power house plays.
Navy Takes Lead
Ingram drop-kicked the extra
point and Navy's sails were set
for ultimate victory, so completely
had Yale been swept off it's feet
by an alternating and formidable
passing and plunging game.
Meanwhile Navy went on aggres-
sively, keeping Yale largely on the
defensive. However, two pro-
nounced weaknesses were cropping
up in Nays play, the worst OF
them, fumbling, finally costing
her the game. The other, Nays
laxity in getting her ends down
the field to cover punts permitted
Ya1e's safety man to run them
back for liberal yardage.
Schmidt, who played a great
game a year ago. and equally as
great an offensive game Satur-
day, fell on ill fortune in the third
quarter after Navy had stopped
Yale on downs and forced the Ellis
to kick from deep in their own ter
ritory.
Schmidt received Motifs kick on
Nays 30-yard line, fumbled it and
the oval rolled out of his hands,
to be kicked by that sterling end.

Yale Seizes Opportunity
It took Frank, of Yale, just two
hard plunges to carry it over

NEW YORK, March 12.-Leaders
of 10000 striking skyseraper workers
and representatives of 5000 building
owners came within a single point
today of ending 12-day-old strike.
They agreed upon Ferdinand Sill
cox, head of the United States For

and working hours at issue, but
gave him no authority until direct
negotiations determine whether
strikers are to be reinstated where
strike breakers have been employed.
Representatives of the union and
the Realty Advisory Board con-
ferred for IA hours to agree upon
the arbitrator, but soon after they
adjourned James j. Bambrick,
union president, telegraphed Mayor
Fiorello H. La Guardia that further
conferences were useless until the
landlords agreed to reinstate strik-
erS without discrimination.

SNOW CHASES
AWAY SPRING
Sun Plays Hide and Seek;
Northwest Hard Hit;
Floods Reported.

Although the temperatures re-
manned above freezing Indianapolis
today was treated to a series of
freak snow storms that chased
away the spring-like atmosphere.
During the forenoon heavy snow,
carried by a west wind, was inter
spersed with sudden appearance
of the sun.
The local snowfall was light COM
pared to the blizzard that ragged in
Minnesota today. Wire dispatches
said that transportation had been
cut off in the northern state and
that the Great Lakes area was
snow covered.
Rising temperatures were forecast
for tomorrow.
Refugees driven from their homes
in northwestern Iowa by food wa
tiers shivered as temperatures broke
sharply downward. The Missouri
River rose to spring peak at Falls
City, Neb.
In the East, loosening ice jams,
rain and thaws sent rivers of New
York, Pennsylvania and New Eng
land out of their banks, causing ire
mendous property loss and forcing
residents to flee.

observers insisted that marriage for
the 41-year-old monarch is unlikely
or remote.
On the other side of the debate,
it was pointed out that his request
that Parliament provide for the
contingency of his marriage was
unusual and probably unprecedented
and that, therefore, he must have
something or some one definitely in
mind.
Indulge i'm Guessing
These could see no reason for
Edwards mention of marriage if
he was not actually considering it.
They INDUCED in furious guessing
game as to who the lucky Princess
might be. More than half dozen
candidates were named,
They included the Princesses Eu-
genie, Irene and Catherine of
Greece, the Grand Duchess Kyre of
Russia, Princess Juliana of the
Netherlands, Princess Alexandrine
Louise of Denmark and Princess
Frederica of Brunswick Luneburp
Princess Eugene was favored bv
persons who usually make the
smartest gueSSes about such things.
She is the 26-year- cousin of an
other Greek princess, Marina, who
married King edwards brother, the
Duke of Kent.
Eugene, daughter of Prince
George, and first cousin of the King,
is a good-looking girl who dresses
smartly. She is taller than Edward
but the British royal family never
has been preiudiced against queens
being taller than kings.
A perfect symbol for the British
public's complete mystification as to
Edwards possible, eventual co-sov-
ereign was the front-page box

it was the caption. Her Majesty

BERLIN, March 12.-Ger-
many offered today to nego-
tiate with France and Bel
GUM and to refrain from
sending any more troops into
the Rhineland pending such
negotiations.
In the face of the adamant
French and Belgian demands for
withdrawal of the German troops.
however, Germany did not offer to
bring back the troops already there.
|. Germany also proposed that
France and Belgium refrain from
increasing their border forces.
The offer means that Germany
proposes not to send any more
troops into the Rhineland, but not
to withdraw any, pending negotia-
tons.
Isolation is Threatened
If the offer is rejected, the state
ment said, Germany will withdraw
it and choose isolation from the
other powers of Europe. Germany,
it was declared, will never agree"
to permanent conditions involving
remuneration of any of her sovereign
rights.
The declaration said:
France has for protection of her
independence, which she claims is
menaced, the following:
Firstly, she has erected the
largest system of Notifications that
ever existed along the German
frontier
secondly, she has as legal guar
antors of her integrity Great
Britain, with her entire forces on
land and sea; Italy, Belgium, Po-
land. Czechoslovakia, Russia with
alone over 100000 soldiers, as well
as France herself.

unique guarantee, France claims it

Frances recent action, declared the
Locarno Pact thereby violated and
again began exercising her sovereign

He could do this quite east :

He watched until she was lost in

building almost halfway to the

Smiling and leisurely, the young

That is how Toby Ryan met Tim

The Rev. C. G. Baker, Hawthorne
Community House superintendent,
told the board that groups that had

city could purchase the land for a
reasonable price" The board has
$4,000 available for the purchase.

The Park Board also accused the
Works Board of failure to live up
to an agreement to pay for repairs
on esplanades in the middle of some
city streets.
The Park Board served notice on
the Works Board it would not pay a
$125 plumbing bill for repair of. an
eSplanade fountain.
Removal Is Urged
A. G. Sallee, city park superinten-
dent, said maintenance of the
esplanadeS cost the Park Board
from $4,000 to $1,000 a year and that
the Works Board had agreed to pay
the water bill and for repairs.
Although the water bill was paid
for by the Works Board last year,
the Park Board was forced to pay
for repairs, Mr.. Sallee said.
Members said they believed the
eSplanadeS should be removed.
