CRIMSON BEHIND
CLOSED GATES

Cambridge, Mass, Nov 19.-The prac-
ice OF the Harvard football team yester-
lay afternoon was behind closed gates
No representative of the press was ad-
mitted and no statement OF the nature of
the work done was given out. SO secret
was the practice that the second team
was even excluded from the Stadium. IL
was understood that the work was devot-
ed TO the practice of "a number of new
plays, which were rehearsed all the af-
ternoon.
Before the squal went into the Stadium
they were given half an hours drill at
the tackling dummy. Dave Campbell SUI
perintended at this practice and kept the
men at It until they showed some pro-
hciency I'm tackling hard and in hitting
the dummy low.
Newhal, who was forced to retire from
the Dartmouth game by a severe cut over
his eye was on the field watching the
work. but took no part I'm Il and was not
In his football clothes. DIR. Nichols is
doubtful whether he will be able TO get
into the Yale game or not. If possible
some kind OF hard guard will be rugged
up forSbim, In order TO protect his cut
from %Dng opened again. but there is
considerable doubt as To whether he will
be able to play. His loss would be the
severest that the team could suffer Just
at this point, as he has shown himself to
be the only quarterback available in
Harvard who is a good general and at
the same time who Is capable OF driving
the men.

BANKER WALSH
LOSES A POINT

Chicago. Nov. 19.--Jld9e Anderson in
the trial OF John r. Walsh. charged with
mfsapplication of the funds of the Chi
cago National bank, yesterday ruled that
the books OF the bank and OF the other
enterprises with which he was connected
constituted competent evidence and that
counsel for Walsh had no constitutional
right to exclude them.
Following up this victory. the prose-
cution, through testimony OF National
Bank Examiner r.. a. Moxey. proceeded
to trace 10 instances OF alleged irregu-
larities in accounts, which. II Is con-
tended indicate misapplication OF the
funds OF the Chicago National by its
former president.
From book to book throughout the
afternoon the bank examiner traced
transactions and pointed out connecting
links through a maze of figures and at
the close OF the session IL appeared that
the task would last for days since each
of the 100 counts in the indictment must
be traced Through half-dozen or more
books.
