pected. In this city and county there were

dred. where the Aadiclsitos attempted 10
defeat George W Marshall IN susse,s the

Addicks spent Two days trying TO de-
fezc Caleb r. Layton. Reports from
Georgetown show that Layton carried the

Addicks made a short but spectacular
campaign at Milford and Georgetown.
He harangued crowds on the street and
when he could get them in halls made
long speeches reciting his political eX-
perience in Delaware. It was his last
stand and he implored his hearers to help
him defeat Alice. Layton and Marshall.
At Georgetown Saturday he stood at the
polls and solicited votes against LaytonS
ticket. His advertised presence at George
town to personally lead the fight against
Layton. like circus. attracted hundreds

SYRACUSE NAY BAR FRESHMEN.
Chancellor Day objects to First Year Men
ON varsity Teams.

SYRACUSE, Nov. Sin a speech before the
students in chapel this morning Chancellor
James r. Day said that II he had his way
henceforth no freshman students would bs
allowed to play on the Orange varsity tea ms.
He outlined a plan for freshman teams allow
Ing one big game in Syracuse and one out Of
town for each branch Of athletics. The sth-
letic &C sGrning board Of the university has
been co.. sidering the adoption OF the rule
barring freshmen for some time. and now that
the Chancellor has declared himself so heart
lily In favor of il, IL will undoubtedly be acted
upon afirmst ively soon.
Despite the fact that the Syracuse eleven,
playing In something like its true form, held
the Indians to a 0 to 4 score at Buffalo on Sat
urday, and came within two inches of retain
ing the ball on the Indians , yard line at ths
end Of the first half. IL looks now as II the eleven
would be unable TO finish its schedule with
any degree of success. The mana cement
even fears that Mia CARA will win against the
varsity on Saturday. Many OF the professors
who have classes until after 4 O'Clock
daily are refusing to excuse the players for
practice. and the team has not had q scrim-
mage this week. Chancellor Day declared
this morning that in his opinion athletics
were as important to the university as any
other department. and that college work
must br arranged so as not to prevent ath-
letic training. The situation at present,
however, Is extremely serious.
