THE PRoM's DEATH KNELL.
Refusal of Armory Threatens Yale'l
 Great Social Event.

New Haven, Oct 2e.-Regarding the junior prom of the future the Alumni Weekly says:
 "The situation which may face the junior prom committee this year may be a peculiar one. It is extremely probable that the near future will see the state of Connecticut refuse the use of the Second Regiment ar mory for social purposes Of all kinds "a refusal that will sound the death knell of the Yele junior prom. as far as concerns that institution as it Is now constituted. That is. with the necessary of seeking smaller quarters for that function will come the neces- slty of recognizing the prom itself. and changing its character from the public event ft now Is. to a social af- fair of narrower limitations.

JOHNSON MAY BE MATCHED.

Philadelphia. Oct 26.-Jack John- son finally has an opportunity to se- cure a good-sized bout in this city. The management of the National A. C. has selected November 10 as the date for the colored heavyweight champion provided Jack or his man. ager. Sam Fitzpatrick. can secure a good man to accept the bout.
 The club has tried. but the heavies all seem to be fighting shy of the ne- gro. Johnson. and Jim Jefrods are billed to fight on Nov $ at Lancaster. Pa. They met here once. when Johnson won in easy fashion. The National would like to get the con- sent of Sailor Burke. Aleck Greg gains or Billy Rodenbach. the anna teur who has decided to turn profess sioual.
 GrezEains Is said to have express ell a desire to meet Johnson in the ring. Negotiations are said to have been entered into with Burke's man ager. Bobby Clark. and Tim McGrath. who acts for Roderbach. Tn the hope that one of these three men will con- sent to meet Johnson the club is cx- pceted to hold the date.

those who advise so learnedly res garding the running of Grand Cen~ tral station were required to give some little evidence of faint under~! standing of what they write about so convincingly, and that would place such blame as they are dis-' posed to more nearly where 1t propsl Ierly belongs.
 "It may be of interest to know that every train that leaves Grand Gene tral station has an accurate count made of the number of passengers carried, and in ninety-nine cases the difficulty is in the indisposition to disturb that great American hog who insists upon occupying two seats, and it is much easier to write letter of complaint to the management or to the newspapers, or both even, than to ask the brakeman to secure you a seat and then ride with party you have thereby disturbed, who fro- quently tries to make you uncom- fortable during your trip and the management thereafter equally so, by impertinent and insulting com- ments.
 When public feeling runs high against corporations. formented as 1t is at the present time by those in high estate and also by those who seek to make of 1t a ladder by which to climb. plead with you to consider what have been your service and your rates in the past, what they arc now, and what is your promise for the future,---and I ask you whether what is transpiring in your midst is' not an evidence of good faith, fair dealing and worthy of encouragement rather than the indiscriminate critic cism. the wholesale condemnation the irritating suspicion SO often mana ifested toward those who are striving hard for better conditions both for you and themselves.
 'T have several times been invited to meet you, but have been impelled to decline until could come before you with record of things accomp~ lished. The present has seemed more propitious than former occa< sions which have presented. I want to assure you of my most earnest, desire to do all that is within mo for your well-being, comfort and prosperity: that you may be proud of your city. your railroads as we'll, and incidentally feel we'll toward tho, man who runs 1t. who wants your good will and confidence. and means to deserve it.
 "1 am not unconscious of having asked much of the people of the state of Connecticut They have placed me under weigbty obligations. and they shall render the verdict later If I am disposed to be neglectfuls I am not unmindful that my coul> pany is your servant. and should not seek to become other than a most efficient one.
 Much must be borne with patience while things are undergoing the transformation of the present time. but this child of Connecticut has in store great future full oe usefulness and profit. I hope. and [ ask you one and all to take hold with me and help me teach it the way in which it should go"

FIRST BIG GAMES.

The first big game of the year comes off tomorrow, when Princeton and Cornell meet in New York. in what should be rattling good con- test from the sound of the whistle as both teams are in fine condition and are fit for gruelling contest. Al though the odds are slightly in favor of the Tigers. Cornell has recovered from the slump which it is said to have experienced early in the week and the practice yesterday was most satisfactory to the coaches.
 The second game of tomorrow is between Harvard and West Point. The Army always plays do or die sort of game with the bigger colleges and although It Is in rather poor shape for morrow's contest. her admirers are confident. that Harvard will be forced tc work hard for all she gets. West Point had no scrimmage yester- day. going through long single prac- tice. The Army has decided not to use the forward pass 10 any extent in Saturdays contest as 1t has proved much of a failure at West Point. Much attention was given to handling punts. Injuries have weakened the team considerable. but the coaches are hoping for the best. The official for the game will be McCracken. ref ere: Marice and Saagfori umplres and Keson linesman
 Amherst which has not met Yale since l902 will journey to New Haven tomorrow and Yale may have just as hard contest as last Saturday. when Penn State made the blue plough for all it was worth. Amherst has six of last years eleven and is very strong in the kicking department.
 Pennsylvania has bracei wonder fully in tine past few days ard yeSier- day had the best practice of the year. There was plenty Of ginger and dash in the players. aRi the coaches are under the impression that the Indians will be neatly disposed cf IieTnus Pierre and Prank IIoison. who have charge of the Indians cxpect them to make a great showing as tbe players are in fine feftie, The Indians ar rived in Philsdsspiia this afternoon. while their rpofers and band will ar rive tomorrow at mon.

HIGH SCHOOL GAME.

Crosby High and Ansonia High are scheduled to meet at the State league grounds tomorrow afternoon at 3:30. The Crosbyites are in good shape and should have no trouble in trouneing the visitors. Records fail to show when Waterbury last played Ansonia. It is doubtful if football teams representing these schools ever met. The lineup of Crosby will be about the same as in the game with Naugatuck on Wednesday.
 In an account in the Naugatuck News of the Crosby-Naugatuck High game on Wednesday, Joe Daily who was linesman for Crosby is referred to as Kid" Daly. The article stated that Naugatuck was robbed of the game.

The Second Wards under the man. agement of Patrick Sullivan are again at work. and it appears as though strong team may be formed before Sullivan gets through.
