RATTLE OF GIANTS.

One of the most interesting and widely discussed incidents or Che liar vard-Yale football game this safurday
 will be the fight between Brill, ieIt tackle ofsHarvard. and Captain Hogan, right tackle of Yale.
 Each man is a giant, much older than the average player, and formerly was captain and tackle on the famous PhiIlips Exeter academy eleven. Hogan is a senior: Brill is freshman.
 Hogan also is 1several years older than Brill. although the latter is the oldest man on the Harvard squad. Each man will be used a great deal in rushing the ball, and each will be counted a pillar of defense when the { Eother team is attacking.
 Hogan is hard as rock and one of the most powerful men that eyer played on Pale eleven. Moreover, he is thoroughly seasoned, a finished play CT in every respect.
 Brill, on the other hand, is Somewhat crude, althougIl even a more powerful antagonist than Hogan. All last sum- mer he worked eight hours a day pounding an anvil in the Lawrence Scientific school at Harvard. so that every ounce of his 215 pounds is solid sinew and muscle.
 At Exeter each player had an equally wide reputation. Hogan first was cap- tain of the team for two years, with Brill playing under him. Then Brill stepped into his shoes and served an equally long term. Amherst, Mass, Nov 17.-Amherst played and won it's last football game of the season yesterday, defeating Wii- Hams by a score of P to G. The only game the home eleven has lost this falr was that with Dartmouth on Sat- urday. Amherst won yesterday by ex- cellent team work.
 After Williams made a touchdown early in the first half the visitors were unable to gain easily and lost the ball because they failed to make distance. The feature of the first half was the kicking of a difficult goal by Watson of Williams.
 In the second half Amherst gained slowly but steadily, making three touchdowns. Hubbard and Rollins did the best work for the home team, while Watson. Murray and Marshall excelled for Williams.

Is that there was man who stood his
ground. What we need today is men OF
grit. men OF grace. ironclads. who stand
in their places like the three hundred
Spartans at Thermopylae.
There are men who will volunteer to
fight for their native land. but II called

the mountains. had fought n bear, had
gone on n fishing excursion. and thus

spirit strong as well.

to as what these young days mean To us.

where Gideon picked out his three hum
