The final football game of the season in the East will be played tomorrow at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Franklin Field, the gridiron of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania. This game is distainctivc event in the college world as we'll as in the ranks of the Army and Navy circles.
 Thanksgiving day witnessed the close of the season in the college cham pionships, the University of Pennsyl- vania playing Cornell at Philadelphia.
 Since the season of 1899. the Army has met the Navy in their annual championship game, the Saturday fol- lowing Thanksgiving. With the ex- ceptiOn of last year, all these games nave been played on Franklin Field. Last fall, however. the scene of the royal struggle was changed to the grid iron of the Princeton Tigers" at Princeton, New Jersey. The change was met with dissatisfaction, the rail- road facilities proving inadequate. as well as the other necessary adjunctS for large assemblagc of football en- thusiasts. So again tomorrow will bring together on Franklin Field one of guished crowds of football enthusiasts of the year. These contests began in 1899. after the failure of the Army and Navy teams to meet for several years. The rules of both these institutions of learning prevent their athletic teams from playing other teams except on home grounds in any branch of ath- letics, so this yearly contest in Phila- delphia is particularly important event for the undergraduates, who are thus allowed a few days vacation, which would otherwise be denied them. pionship, this is one of the most noted social events of the year in connec- tion with football. While the members of the respective elevens are closely guarded and carefully trained up until ? o'clock tomorrow, when they face each other on the field ready for action, a large representation from both the Army and Navy undergraduate life will be comfortably established in all the leading hostelries of the Quaker this evening. During the earlier part of the evening the two will exchange courtesieS.

 The balloon-sled was invented by a man named Ferdon, who spent some time in Alaska, and who, while in the North gave much attention to studying conditions with a view to making im- proyements in the methods of trayeI- ing.
 As the namc indicates, the apparatus is composed of a balloon and sled. The gas of the balloon can be SD gov erned that il cannot raise the sled above the ground, but races with the wind, dragging the sled behind.
