YALE WON'T PLAY
WITH PENNSY

In case Harvard drops out of intercol-
legiate athletics. the chances are not
bright for Yale's filling her place on the
football schedule with another big univer-
sity team.
The Yale faculty think that one game
with a college OF the calibre OF Harvard
or Princeton Is about enough. They have,
however. allowed Yale tradition 10 so on
un5roken and permitted both her ancient
rivals 10 be met annually. Should one
however, quit her schedule. indications
are that nobody will he substituted.
Since it was announced that Harvard
overseors would not vote on the reten-
ton OF intercollegiate sport, rumors have
sprung up that Yale would take on Penn
sylvania. II Ia extremely likely that the
Yale faculty will tell the football officials
that minor college or none at all Will
take Harvards place on the football
schedule.

not I'm very bad way at any time, Muir
ply out-boxed and out-punched him.
Both men weighed I'm under 130 pounds.
There was a long delay before the men
entered the ring. The state police refused
to allow more than 400 persons In the
clubhouse, and at the end of the FIRST
preliminary arrested John Purcell ana
John Ahcarn. 1t was then plain that II
the Murphy Ba ldwin bout was allowed to
go on that it would be the last one In this

large number OF New Workers came
over TO see Murphy perform, but ar

PEACE RE|GNS IN
AMERICAN LEAGUE

The American Baseball league is
united and happy family once more. For
tho past year Ban Johnson. the president
OF the league, and Charles Comiskey have
been at logserheads and their differences
have threatened TO spread dissension
among the other members OF the organi-

OF the league. these two men became rec
onclled and have renewed the close friend
ship which existed for SO many years be-
fore the split II months ago.
AS an evidence OF his pleasure at the
cessation OF hostlities, Mr.. Comiskey
suggested that tho clubs increase John

Harry Pullam was reelected president
OF the National league at yesterdays ses-

Pulliam's clean ball platform and other
labors for the organization since he has
been its chief executive have made such
a hit with most OF the club owners that

There was no other nomination. pulliam

voted for Pulliam on the first ballot. so
that only one ballot was necessary. The
Cincinnati club did not vote, while John

only one who voted no.
