British to Pay Part Of Debt Due Dec. 15 (Continued From Page One) ; in default. i This was tho attitude token last June, at which time the British paid about ten per cent of the amount due, and that In silver at the rate of 50 cents an ounce to tho amount of $11,000,000. In his statement today, Mr, Roose velt said tho debt negotiations werb concluded -without prejudice "until certain factors In the world situation commercial and monetary became more clarified." . He revealed he had been assured by the British government "that it continues to acknowledge the debt without, of course, prejudicing Its right again ito present the matter of Its readjustment." TWO GAMES LEFT AND E. O.N. GRID TEAM UNDEFEATED For the first time In E. O. N. his tory, Lta football team begins lte final month of play without a defeat. Only two more games remain on the sched ule, a tilt at WaJla Walla with Whit man Friday and a game with Southern Oregon Normal at Ashland on Nov. 18. Both games loom as the big out- of-town contests of the Mountaineer season. As for the Whitman game, the E. O. N. eleven is given an even chance to win. Southern Oregon con tinues to rule a favorite over Eastern Oregon In the Nov. 18 game, however. The record of the 1933 E. O. N. team to date follows: E. O. N. 35, Whitworth college 0. E. O. N. 38, Lowlflton Norma! school 0. . O. N. 20, LewiBton Normal school 0. E. O. N. 6, College of Idaho 0 (tie). E. O. N, 20, Albion Normal scliool 7. E. O. N. total 131, opponents 13. College of Pugot Sound, continu ing Its drive for a second consecutive title, pasted Whitman with a 10 to 0 defeat at Tacoma Saturday to hold Its lead in the Northwest conference. As a result, Borlcske's crew Is likely to .try to take out their spite on the Mountaineers, particularly since the game is before a home crowd. Puget Sound's Loggers battered 80 yards to their first score without once allowing the Missionaries to get their ! hands on the ball. The other two touchdowns come In the third Snd fourth periods, the second resulting from a march from mldflold. Meanwhile, the Southern Oregon Normal school continued Its march of victories, scoring one over Marin college of California Saturday. Both the Rooks and Froeh have gone down before the Sons, who also defeated Monmouth. Which makes tho Nov. 18 game between tho Sons and Moun taineers a state championship affair as far as Normal schoolB aro concern ed.
