PENNSY BREAKS
WITH THE CRIMSON

PHILADELPHIA. November 21-The
University Of Pennsylvania has broken all
athletic relations with Harvard, and the
Quakers will not meet the Crimson in any
dual meets during the coming year. This
means that Penn must forfeit both Of her
basket ball games with Harvard. as well
as the association foot ball lacrosse and
cricket games played each year.
The Quakers are now members of the
basket ball. lacrosse, association foot ball,
swimming and cricket leagues. in common
with Harvard and. in common with the
other universities. had Its schedule made up
by the league itself. Accordingly, Penn
must forfeit all its games with Harvard
AS Penn won the basket ball champion
ship year ago and has the same team this
year, the necessity of FORGETTING both of her
games to Harvard will seriously cripple her
for the basket ball honors. The reason for
PENIS action In these sports Is the hostile
attitude of Harvard in foot ball. the Grim
son virtually declaring that Penn was un-
worthy as rival on the gridiron.
PENIS reply Is that IL Harvard refuses
to meet her on the gridirnn she will not
have an opportunity tn meet her on any
field as dual opponent. In all other
collegiate sports in which other colleges are
Penn will continue her part as
heretofore.

CENTRAL HIGH
FOOT BALL CHAMPIONS

What was practically the deciding game
in the High School championship series
was played yesterday afternoon at Ameri-
can League Park between the Central and
Technical teams. in which the former came
out victorious by score Of IL to 4.
The contest was witnessed by about 5000
spectators and was one Of the best seen In
the High School series this season. On
their showing during the preliminary games
the Technical team was made favorite in
the betting. but the Central team did not
lack supporters. The teams were about
evenly matched as to weight. In the first
half, the Technical boys kept the ball al
most entirely in CentraPs territory, but only
succeeded in getting within striking
distance Of the winners goal once. This
was when Mess dropped goal from the
twenty-fve-yard line over the posts and
counted the first score of the game The
winners could do nothing with the Techni-
cal line in the first half. and were downed
on nearly every attempt at end runs. The
winning play for Central was the use of
the forward pass. when they averaged
the second half the Central boys got both
Of their scores. They ripped the weaken
ed Technical line for long gains.
Burch. at fullback, for the winners. did
more to win the game than any other men,
Der of the Blue and White squad. Time
and time again he broke through the inter-
ference and downed the runner for a big
loss, and on two occasions saved his team
from a possible defeat by downing the
runner when touchdown was In sight.
Burch's running with the ball through the
line was very noticeable On seven-eut of
eight downs in succession Burch carried the
ball and never failed to gain. Mcdonald
and Flemming also played good game for
Central. For Technical. little Mess at left
end. carried off the honors. He was into
every play and tackled more opponents
than the rest of his team put together.
The game opened by Thrall kicking to
Macdonald. who fumbled the ball. but
Burch picked it up and ran five yards be-
fore being downed by Mess. At this time
series of punts were made by both Tarall
and MacDonald In which the former out
kicked the latter. Near the a2ooe OF the
half with the bali resting on Centrars TWEEN

LAST PRACTICE
BEFORE BIG GAME
Yale and Harvard in Fine Fettle

Harvard plans but one more scrimmage
before the Yale-Harvard game. After to-
days hard practice the Crimson eleven will
leave Cambridge and go to the PeQuot club.
near New London. where they will prac-
tfce two days in secret before Saturday.
game. Yale. on the other hand, begins its
work at New Haven again today after two
days rest at De Witt Cochrane's place near
Ardsley, and will practice today and to-
morrow. and give up Friday to a complete
rest. Both teams will be as At as can be.
and ought to be at the top Of their game
on Saturday.
The uncertainty about the makeup Of the
two teams will not be settled until the day
OF the game. Yale's coaches announce that
there will be no change from the lineup
used against Princeton, but Harvard men
are not disposed to accept the statement
that Roome will not start the game. It Is
uncomfortable that Yale will allow the
strongest line breaker she has except
Forbes to rest on the side lines, and 1t is
not at all unlikely that the Veeder shift
to quarterback will be made. Burch, who
has been out of the game on account Of a
broken shoulder, and whom Rockwell con-
siders the best end in America, may get
a chance instead of Alcott-at least at the
start of the game.
Outside of right eEd there is NO uncer-
feel that AppolOnio at fulEback would be an
Improvement over the present arrange
ment of the Crimson backfield, with Wen
dell at half instead of Lincoln, but those
closest to Reid declare that there is no
chance of a change now. Appolonio, they
say, may go In in the second half.
One Of the best-informed men in Har-
wards athletics declared yesterday that the
Crimson would show some Of the most sur
prising plays in forward passes and on
side kicks seen on the field this year when
1t faces Yale. The Harvard team undoubt-
eddy has paid more attention to these new
tangled ideas than any other team, and its
attack in consequence is likely to be widely
diversified.
Yale used against Princeton a peculiarly
formidable forward pass-a long pass Of
twenty-five yards to a tackle, that If the
ball was lost practically gains as much as
a kick. provided the ball docs not touch
the ground. The tacke in the format ton
Is the man on the end of the line. and so
Is eligible to receive the ball. She had no
chance to work short forward passes be-
cause OF the way Princeton played her
ends back some ten yards in order to block
the ends going down the field or to cut of
forward passes. II Harvard employs the
same system OF end Defense Yale win be
forced to the same recourse. However, the
longer the pass the more uncertain 1t is
and Yale runs greater risk on such plays
than by any other form of forward pass.

dupes that its president whom he pleased to
call Arthur P. Laurel. is former cha nber-
lain Of this city and a trustee of the Car

orders for Manager Smith he possessed him

Mr.. Smiths customers. In less than a week
Dillon confessed he built the two trust COM

aliases which he has forgotten. really"
After Dillon was in his employ three
weeks, Manager Smith grew suspicious of
his extreme activity and discharged him.

others began to pour in on Mr.. Smith. After

fine prospectuses and other evidence were
found In Dillons room in Brooklyn.

Yale's Last Practice.

to Hastings-on-t Hudson after the

down.
It was discovered last night that Burch,

days game against Harvard at end, was
injured in the practice Monday, and Is out
of play for this year. Howard Jones was
recalled as first varsity substitute for end.

GAL AGHER AND CLINE
WON AT BILLIARDS

NEW YORK, November N.-Harry Cline
of Philadelphia defeated Al Taylor Of Chi
cago last night in the third game Of the

both men quickly gave way to briskness
Cline culled three bountiful double-figure
runs in succession, namely, AZ, 40 and o..
The third was characterized by deft nurs-
ing and other close maneuver1ng. Inc last
count was a circuitous masse with the OBJ
ject balls close to the rail and the cue ball
below both. Taylor's response was a zero,
and the total was las to Al in Cline's favor.
Taylor made a whirlwind fve-cushion

for a deferred count. After making six

slumped to 8. but continued to maintain
a long lead. Taylor played the balls wider
than Cline and did not control them as
WELL
Cline's third hundred and Taylor's second
hundred were tedious periods. The runs
came In fragments. and each player was
weak on draw shots. They lost the balls
often and had to pound away all over the
table. Taylor really was in bad luck, with
eags o snd the spr of his in the
teenth inning. He played real billiards, set
Ting down to ball-to-bal tactics and run
ming 03. He pulled up to Wthin three
points Of Cline. the score being 242 to 239.
He used the long balk line and drive to the

Taylor's game was one of streaks He
had to chase Cline again. as the latter
went in the fourth hundred with runs Of
