HOPES FADE FOR ARMT-NAVY TILT Washington. Oct 31. — (U.R) — The Army and Navy are no nearer resumption of athletic relations than two years ago when Annapolis authorities refused to play the annual football game with West Point because the military academy would not adopt a three-year eligibility rule. This became evident after a fruitless conference between superintendents of the service schools in the office of General John J. Pershing yesterday. Before the annual Army-Navy footbal game can lie resumed one of the two schools must acced yesterday's conference proved that neither is willing to make any major concessions. Navy, represented by Rear Admiral S. S. Robinson, superintendent of Annapolis. made the only offers of compromise. Major General William R. Smith, superintendent at West Point, resfused to consider these, indicating nothing short of unconstitutional surrender would interest the Army. Tony Canzoneri Wins Decision Over Loayza Chicago, Oct. 31—(U.R)-Tony Can | zoned. lithe little New York Italian who likes to give it and take it in the ring and doesn't find many men who can take what he gives, ran into one of the exceptions last night and was ; forced to be content with a 10-round decision over Stan Loayza, the Chilean lightweight. Boxers who refused to run into Tony’s right crosses to the jaw have beaten the Italian but last night for the first time Chicago saw a fighter who took all Tony could put on his jaw and come hack for more. It was a great fight, a fight which had the crowd on its feet numerous times and was close enough to cause considerable booing of the decision. 0 ♦7 7 ♦ Along the Sidelines | —(U.R)— ♦ ♦ Indianapolis, Oct. 31.—(U.R. —As high board fences continued to conceal the' tact'cs of Butler college gridders Wed- ; nesday afternoon, word seeped through j the cracks that the drill was largely of a defensive character. On Tuesday second string men using Depauw plays had more than a comfortable degree of success against the varsity, but yesterday, so the whispered word goes, the favorite, scoring stunts of Depauw did not fare so well. . 1 much as may be expected from the Pidgers next Saturday, was sent aea'nst the Boilermakers line yester-. day by Coach Phelan, to test them for what he looks upon as a crucial game in the bid for Big Ten championship. A light workout this afternoon wasj to complete preparations for the Badger t it. The Boilermakers will be without Eb Caraway at end-when the line up' at Madison, but otherwise the team will be the same as has vanquished all foes this season. George St ears, j guard, was laid up with a cold yeste"-' day, but Phelan was confident he would not be out ot the lineup Satur-i day. Bloomington, Ind.—Hoosier gridmen! entrained at noon today for Minne--apolis. taking with them and leav.ng behind them much misgiving as to success of their invasion of the Gopher town. Practice throughout the week has been concentrated upon defensive measures to use against the heavy Badger eleven, and a few offensive] tactics which might be calculated toi score without the necessity of matching bruite strength with the Minnesota forward wall.

Parents of the girl, residing in Whitehall, were stunned at the report of her suicide. So far as they! j knew she had no cause for the act, 1 and they remarked that she was of! I mythlng but a morose disposition. Last Saturday Miss Burke, who had secured employment recently in Indianapolis, heard the barking of a ■ carnival ballyhoo man, who told of I the remarkable powers of Edelle, the ■ mentalist. It would be great fun, she thought, to have her fortune told, so she went nto the tent. Just what Edelle told Lillian may never be known. But dating from that hour she was a changed girl. .She told a friend that a horrible future had been pictured for her. but did not go into deta'l. Yesterday morning she went into the kitchen of the home where she was rooming, swallowed poison, and died an hour later in a hospital. Coroner Keever was probing the case today. o • Santo Domingo Head On Way To Baltimore Havana. Cuba.

High officials of the government, the army and diplomatic corps will be on hand to see that every facility for speed and comfort is placed at the disposal of those, | cat ng for the president. It was announced President Vasquez and his wife would remain here 1 j overnight at the palace of President i Gerardi Machado, leaving Friday by I I a'rplane for Miami, Fla., where an- i ; other plane will be chartered to com-. ' plete the race to Johns Hopkins hos- ■ p'tal at Baltimore, Md. o Famous Extortionist Dies After Gun Battle i Chicago, Oct. 31. — (U.R) — Without I identifying his assassin, "King" Rocco j (Maggio, most notorious of Siclian ex-| tortionisis. died in a hospital early today of bullet wounds in head and body, received in his Taylor street headquarters last night. Many in little Italy breathed easier when they heard of his death, for Maggio, called “the Scourge,” had eolI lected widespread, unwill ng tribute 'j by inspiring the terror of the blackhand among his countrymen. Witn such a career, and so many enemies on his list, it was d fficult for police to put their finger on anyone who would assist them in finding Maggio's slayer. Even Maggio's child wife, whom he wed to escape prison, and her parents were reluctant to talk and insisted they could not identify. the killed. Man Interferes With Family Scrap; Loses ’I Bloomington. Ind.. Oct 31. — (U.R) After all the pages of advice to man- ■ kind ; n general, not to interfere in family quarrels, Gene Sweringen thought he saw an except'onal case. He didn’t.

Mrs. Thomas Abell's mother im- ) plored Swearingen, he said, to interfere in a family row in which she - said Abell was beating his wife, a Abell desisted long enough to break Sweringen's nose whereupon the lat--1 ter was arres.ed on a charge of assault and battery. i- In court both Mr. and Mrs. Abell t swore that their “tiff" went no furthh er than the argumentive stage, and a the husband was acquitted. .
