Is to 0 today the Harvard seniors broke
the college record by taking the class
championship for four successive years.
A telegram received here today from
Syracuse, N. Y, offered proof that Glass
the Yale foot ball player, had received
pay for playing foot ball. The Telegram
indicates two men who could positively
assert that the secretary of the Danfortf
Athletic club had paid Glass money fol
playing foot ball in October. 1894. The
dispatch was at once placed before the
Harvard Athletic committee.
Professor Helis of the Harvard Athletic
committee, said tonight. however, tina
Glass came from a family of high stand,
ing in Syracuse and with ample means
and there was no need for him to pla!
foot ball for money. He thoroughly be
lieved Glass to be eligible for the 'varsit!
team.
NEW YORK, Conn, Nov. 2O.-The sub
~stitutes of the Yale foot ball eleven werp
permitted to break training tonight with
big dinner at their training table. Tn,
keynote Of the banquet was confidence tina
Yale would win. The same feeling wa
noticeable on the campus tonight and OF
the field earlier in the day.
Nearly a thousand students marched
to the field, led by the Old Guard band
and cheered themselves hoarse during tn,
practice. The spectators did not see mucl
playing by the varsity regulars, how
ever, for they were not required to do har,
work or any s~crimmaging. Later the hal
