Yale plays her next game with Amherst on
Wednesday.
Considerable discussion is at present taking
place among football men concerning the
forced resignation of Captain Ames of Prince
ton. The statement of the Princeton gradu-
ate committee, however, clears up any mys-
terry connected with their action. The COM
mittee stated that Ames was asked to resign
because in their Judgment the captainey of
the team in the field, especially in view of
the close contest expected in November, must
be intrusted to some member of the team
who has perfect GOODNESS and self-command
in critical moments. The committee thought
that Ames did not possess these requisites,
and in asking for his resignation they were
working for the best interests of the team
and undergraduates OF Princeton. The COM
mittee also expressed appreciation for the
skill and energy of Mr.. Ames in bringing out
new material and securing faithful practice
and training. At q football meeting held
Friday afternoon the resignation Of Mr.. Ames
was announced and Mr.. Cowan was appointed
captain pro tempore.
At meeting of the intercollegiate Foot.
ball association held Saturday night at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, a schedule
of games and referees was adopted. @. O.
| Gill of Yale presided. Umpires will be cho-
sen by the advisory board, which will meet

| At q recent sale of exchanges the Yale
Record sold for more than the Harvard
| Lampoon. Heretofore the Lampoon has
sold for more than the Record, but this last
sale proves that the Record has the lead in
college illustrated papers. The Yale News
sold for 81 60 and still holds the fret place
as it has done for some years past.
Yale defeated Williams at the field Satur
day SO to o. The defeat of the visitors wat
expected of course, and Yale being sure of
victory did not score as fine game as some
of the spectators looked for. There were
several scirmages and some claret flowed
During the game Rogerson, quarter back fol
Williams, was thrown shortly afterwards
breaking some of the ligaments in his arm
but continued to play until the pain caused
by the fracture compelled him to give place
to Brown.
Mrs. Miriam Osborn, the donor of Yale'l
new recitation building, visited and inspected
the beautiful edi6ce Saturday. With bel
was her attorney J. w. Sterling of New York
and Bruce Price, the architect of the struc
ture. Mrs. Osborn was much pleased witt
the building. The inscription over the en-.
trance will probably read Osborn Hall, in
stead of Osborn Memorial Hall, a. originally
designed. The building will be partly occu.
