HARVARD BREAKS RELATIONS.
Will Probably Be no Football Con-
 test With Yale.

Cambridge. Mass Jan 1s.-Har- yard officially announced that she had broken her athletic agreement with Yale which called for annual meet ings between the Crimson and the Blue in the four major sports of foot ball. rowing. baseball and track ath- 1ettcs.
 The agreement ran for periods of two years. but at the end of each of these periods 1t was self-resuming unless notice to the contrary was given by one of the parties at least six weeks before the expiration of the term. One of these two year periods would have expired on tine 18th of next March.
 Harvard gave to Yale, as her req son for this act. that the Harvard overseers had forbidden the Crimson athletic committee to make arrange ments for the intercollegiate ath- letie contests after the first of No- vember. 1908.
 Permission has been given the crew, baseball nine and track team to meet Yale this coming spring and these contests will take place.
 This leaves Harvard and Yale with no definite athletic agreement. and makes break between the two in football all the more likely in fact, 1t is taken in many quarters as a strong indication that there will be no football games between the Crim- son and the Blue next fall.

BITS OF SPORT.
Culled From the Columns of Our
 Busy Exchanges.


 Charles E. Boyle. a former Dart mouth football player, who once tried to whip Jim Corbett in a Cleveland saloon and who was until recently head coach at Des Moines college, has just declared with a flourish that the football rules must be completely overhauled and that the forward pass is miserable failure" If Boyle could have seen the Yale eleven play the new game last fall. at the same time demonstrating the beautiful possibilities of the forward pass, he would probably have refrained from making such nasty observations. The football rules are all right.
 Walter Camp, Yale's athletic ad- wiser and member of the intercolle- giate football rules committee, has returned from Chicago. He says that a meeting of the rules committee will be held some time this month. Whether there will be any changes of the football code he was unable to state, but it is his belief that nothing of any importance will be done this year.
 Dennis Morgan, former holder of the worlds record for putting the 16-pound shot, has been engaged to assist in the coaching of Pennsylva. nia's weight men during the coming track season. Trainer Murphy already has several of the big football men at work on the weight, including Ziegler. Draper, Pike and Gallagher, while Folwell, Luby, Fennell and Hollingshead of last years team will also be out later.
 President Bird S. Coler. Brooklyn. of the Brooklyn Yacht club, has asked Colonel David E. Aus ten, the former vice comomdore. to sail his flagship. Rusalka. in the race for the $1,000 Maier cup, which is to start from Gravesend bay for Bermu- da on June 3. Colonel Austen is a veteran yachtsman and considered one of the best Amateur tars in Brooklyn. The Rusalka was pur- chased by Mir Coler from ex-Commo- dore Rogers of the Rhode Island Yacht club.

much of a good thing was the trouble

the regulars beat the colts by 10 TO /

Every man on the team showed the
effects OF the violent exertion, and IL
Is doubtful IL they were at all benefited
by the severe course through which
they were put.
No Credit to Either Team.
The game itself reflected no credit
on either team. All Of the pitchers,
Goodwin for the regulars and Hughes,
Graham, and Patten for the Colts. were
batted numerically, although they were
doing their best in their tired condi-

The report going the rounds about the
disqualification Of Whiting. Bryan.
Senior. and Ruiz through failure to
comply with the requ rements Of the
new eligibility code Is only partially
correct
Bryan was satisfactorily reported on
by the eligibility committee, and could
play with the team. as far as that is
concerned, but his job at the Agricul-
turl Department keeps him so busy
that II would be impossible for him to
get 20 all OF the games. so he will
probably not come out for the team
senior also has complied with every re-
Quirement of the code. but as this is his
