Unbeaten Cornell Bids
For Eastern Supremacy

NEW YORK For while II
looked as though the east might
not have a single outstanding foot
ball club by the end Of the 1889
season, but Cornell has emerged
undefeated, united and with only
Penn to beat to complete a perfect
record year.
Cornell, early favorite to gain
the eastern crown held by Car
negie Tech, looked like a sure thing
after conquering Ohio State. But
that victory apparently took a lot
out Of Carl Snavely's big Red
Eleven, because against Columbia
and Colgate they looked pretty
sad. 1t took a recovered tumble
to lick Columbia, and Colgate
bowed by only one point.
Able to assemble fun
strength lineup for the first
time since the Ohio State vic
tory, Cornell regained Its scor-
ing stride last week and
humbled Dartmouth, s5-6.
Although beaten the previous
week by Princeton, Dartmouth APP
peared as no mean obstacle to Cor
nell's hopes for an indicated sea-
son. Earl Blaik's Green Indians
had shown a great offense against
Harvard and Yale. and many Of the
experts thought they would bounce
back from the Princeton defeat to
give Cornell Its toughest game Of
the year.
But the Indians looked like high
schoolers. They didn't block, they
didn't tackle and stood around
watching the big Red ends catch
passes, while Cornell's scoring be-
gan to get monotonous. Maybe 1t
was Cornells great running game
with expert blocking and tackling
that made the Indians look so
inept.
PENN is GOOD
Cornell may run into more
trouble than expected Saturday
against Penn. The Quakers played
their best game of the year all
though losing 1917 to Michigau's
Harmon and Company last week
with Quarterback Frank Reagan
emerging as one of the outstanding
stars in the east.
Holy Cross and Fordham
continued their comeback from
early season setbacks, and
there are few better teams
than these anywhere in the
country judging from their
November performances.

Conferences Continue,
However, and British
Answer to Soviets Has
Not Yet Been Sent

London, May g. (AP) = Ivan
Maisky, Soviet Russia's ambassador
to London, called on Foreign Secre-
tary Viscount Halifax today and dis
cussed Britain's counter proposals to
the Moscow government on its par
Gcipaton in the British-French sys-
TEN of security pacts.
These were said by one responsible
source to have accepted, in principle,
Soviet proposal for a mutual as
sstance alliance among Britain,
France and Russia, but to have
sought modification of MoscoW's
wider suggestions for a comprehen-
siVe collective guarantee to smaller
nations.
Foreign office spokesman, how
ever, refused today to confirm or
deny this or other reports on the ma
ture Of the British reply. Usually in
formed sources said the British an
sWer should offer a basis for an
agreement with Russia, unless the
resignation Of Maxim Litvnoff as
Soviet commissar of foreign affairs
marked a complete turn against the
western European powers.
Although it had been reported last
night that the reply had been dis
patched to Moscow soon after its APP
proVal by the foreign affairs COM
mittee Of the cabinet, the foreign Of
lice said today it had not been sent
yet, but would be shortly. 1t was
stated by authoritative sources that
Britain's note contained acceptance
OF the principle of triple military
alliance for Russia, France and the
English.
In other quarters, it was said the
principle Of an alliance merely had
been accepted as a "basis for dis
cussion" on the form which Russian
participation in the bloc would take
