EBy Telegraph to The Tribune.I

Cambridge. Mass. Jan. 15.-President Eliot, OF
Harvard. has taken a stand squarely against
any intercollegiate football at Harvard next
year In an interview with a Tribune reporter
last night he said:
q for one, shall never consent to intercollegiate
football being resumed at Harvard until IT has
been demonstrated in actual play that the OBJ
jectionable features Of the game have been ruled
out A mere paper reform % the game will not
secure my sanction of the resumption OF inter
collegiate football ct Harvard.
DO you refer to demonstration of the new
rules in \ football experimental laboratory, such
as is contemplated by the new rule committee!
Or. Eliot was asked.
No" was the emphatic answer I mean
demonstration of them in actual play. He con-
tinued:
Let the game under the new rules be played
By teams made up entirely of our own students

THE GARDEN CROWDED.
Statesmen Busy Taking Orders and
ShOzcing the Cars.

A crowd that filled every nook and corner Of
the big amphitheatre al Madison Square Garden
gathered at the automobile show yesterday. and
from the time that the doors opened in the
morning until the band played Home. Sweet
Home" at night. it was with difficulty one could
make a circuit of the show. As all records are
going in motor car speeding, SO all records are
being broken at the Garden, as far as the at
tendance goes
1t a busy day with the statesmen and
order after order was recorded, which made it
appear as if most everybody had come to buy
One Cleveland manufacturer asserts that he has
already sold five cars.
That the show is visited by a majority Of the
persons for the purpose of learning the latest
improvements can be judged by the way that
each car is closely inspected. Although the
tomObile may never become the toy Of the
masses, it is surprising to see how. many people
can afford to pay from 500 to $1,000 for car.
The greatest efforts this year have been made
toward the perfection of minor details In the
building of luxurious and convenient bodies.
Power and more power seems TO be the cry also,

1t would seem that the present model has been
accepted as the standard design, and only one
maker has departed from it. He shows three

One of the features Of the show is the giving

sion button to wear on his coat instead of a

made to the executive committee at any of the
tournaments.
1t then reviews the matter OF certain golf ball
manufacturers offering prizes to the winner of the
open championship provided their ball was used,
and points out that it necessary to bar the use
of one ball at the open championship The report
continues follows:
This action taken because in the opinion Of Of

tend to increase the interest in the game among
the college boys.
