administrators and the coaches of

ing at MillsborO, Monday evening,
September. After full discussion
Of all the events and circum-
stances surrounding the schedul-
ing Of the two football games of
November 19, 1854 and September
%, 1855, the boards agreed that
the unfortunate incident that hap
pened in Friday nights game at
Dover was a definite result Of a
misunderstanding between the two
schools. Dover felt that the restric-
| tive agreement was only binding
for the game played in 1854. Mills
borO felt it was binding for both
years. Both schools had communi
cations, written and oral, to sub
stantiate their beliefs. All agreed
that it was most unfortunate that
I the officials of the two schools
had failed to discuss this matter
prior to the game.
The meeting ended in harmony
with an expression that the good
feeling has always existed between
the two schools to be continued
