Training Rules.

During the past week at the high
school, attention has been turned to-
wards basket ball, and football drop
ped, but only for a week, for COM

football warriors will again begin
their nightly journeys to the public

been held at the Garfield gymnasi-
UNI, and at each, there have been from
twelve to sixteen men out. Coach

Some Predictions Made That

In Defeat.
SUPPORTERS OPTIMISTIC.
BY Tort.

Tho eyes Of all the foot ball fans in
this part Of the state will tomorrow
be turned in the direction of Reid
Field. where Earlham and Depauw
will clash. The meeting of these two
ancient enemies is certain to attract a
large crowd.
While Earlham will not have its
best team In the field against the
Methodists, it will have the best elev-
en- out that has represented the Qua
ker institutions this season. The
team has been practicing in fine form
all week and the hopes of it's admir-
ers are at high pitch.
The first of this week predictions
were made that Earlham would prob
ably hold Depauw to low score. The
fine work Of the Quakers since then
has so frightened the outlook that to-
day predictions are being made that
the Quakers will win the game.
This view, however, is probably a
little too optimistic. and If Earlham
holds her old rivals to two touch.
downs she will make splendid show
ing. DePauw has well trained, well
drilled and fairly fast eleven this year
and. on paper at least, appears to out
class the Quakers.

In the Palladium office this morn
ing Charley Olson and Bob Mano-
goff, the Turk, entered into an agree
ment for a finish bout to be pulled off

one of the most exciting seen here
this winter. The articles of agree

goff are as follows:

Coast Wrestler, in Handi-
cap Match.

SUBJECT OF Sutton ANOTHER
CHANCE TO DEFEAT HIM-AR-
TIcLES ARE DRAWN.

Olson threw Peterson three times
last evening and had Twenty-Five min
utes to spare.
To be more explicit-under the
terms Of the match pulled off at the
Coliseum, Olson was to down the Pa
cific coast demon three times in sew
enty-five minutes, or forfeit the
match. Mr.. Olson performed this
stunt in exactly forty-six minutes.
Peterson fought gamely from start
to finish, and whenever he had the
opportunity he took the offensive, but
he didn't have many opportunities.
According to the official time keeper.
the first fall was made after seventeen
minutes. The other timers caught it
at twelve minutes. The second fall
was accomplished with a full Nelson
in fourteen minutes and the third fall
was made in fifteen miutes.
Olson clearly outclassed his burly
opponent. and did not appear to exert
himself greatly in pulling down the
long end Of the purse. He gave a
glimpse Of his skill at the game in the
last fall. Peterson secured a good
hold on him and Olson went to his
back. but promptly squirmed out of
the position and in q fraction of a sec
ond had tho shoulders of the Tacoma
man sQuafely pinned to the mat. Aft
er the match Peterson made hit with
the crowd by announcing that there
might DO some wrestlers who could
beat Olson. but he was not included
in the list.

arrangement would permit the strange
hold and Olson declined to accept the
challenge. He said choking" was not

lice Gazette rules. He offered to meet
tho Turk with the strangle hold bar

YALE-HARVARD GAME
Crimson and Eli Football EIevens
to Clash on Nov. 81.
STUBBORN BATTLE EXPECTED

Regeneration CT Cambridge Team Has
Been Talk of Gridiron Experts.
Both Elcvens Have Two Great kicA-
ers-Yaie's Strcns Back Field.
The football elevens of Yale and
Harvard will take the field at Yale
oval. in New Haven, on Nov. II and
fight out once more their annual grid
iron battle. Yale will lie the favorte.
for those who have watched the devel
opment of the two elevens and seen
them in action do not hesitate to pre-
dict that Harvard Is doomed TO defeat.
1t might be well to postpone judg
ment, however. until the referee blows
crimson players will not acknowledge
defeat without stubborn fight. Those
who are predicting Il rout for Harvard
are likely to be nightly surprised. for
while Yale should win on all football
form she will not find herself at a pink
tea in New Haven.
There has been ample evidence that
Harvard has learned the new game to
a nicely. The use of the forward pass
has been the direct means Of several of
her big scores. How much this means
can be appreciated only by one who
has seen an eleven try to play old foot
ball against team well versed in the
new.
Another feature of Earvards game
has been the strength and speed of the
backs. Six of them have been used
this season. They are White. Corbett
Smith, Kennard. Leslie, Forcheimer
and Yer Weibe.
Cutler has been developing into one
Of the best all around quarterbacks
that have ever played at Harvard. His
build is precisely like that of Tad
Jones, and his work is almost as keen.
Crowley seems to be an iron man at
right end. This plucky little player
has gone through many games this
season uninjured and has showed
signs of making one Of the fastest
ends since Dave Campbell's days.
At center Nourse has been playing in
much the form that Pat Grant played
last season. Mckay at left tackle has
braced up and is now one of the most
valued men on the eleven.
Hoar at left guard was a prominent
factor in the reversal of form made by
Harvard in the Yale game last fall.
His work, with a long. rangy tackle
like Fish beside him, will make the

years on Ilirvart. velnn.
The strength Of the Yale team is
well distributed. although at times
her ends have shown weakness. The
return of Captain Burch and Kilpat-
rick is expected to strengthen these
positions. The line. though heavy. is
fast and aggressive. Not only do the
players make holes for the backs in
good fashion. but help them along in
good style.
Yale has in her back field the best set
Of any Of the colleges. Coy. Philbin.
Wheaton. Brides and Murphy are a
set that have been tried in former
championship games and have not
been found wanting.
Yale is strong enough to stop any
consistent advance of the ball, while
Harvard will have to improve to a
marked degree in this respect 90 with
stand the onslaught of the Yale backs
headed by Coy and helped along by
every man on the team.
Far back in 1901 Harvard beat Yale
% to o. Since then Yale has trailed
the crimson in the dust six times. and
Harvard has not scored a single point.

ton. There does not seem chance
of Col Pulliam being displaced from
the executive. Those on the inside
say the only dissenting vote will be
that of the New York club.
The week of December 6 to II will
be a busy one for the base ball mag
mates and New York. Ban Johnson
will line up the American league mo-
guls for the annual gabfest at the Ho-
tel Wolcott Wednesday, December 8.
OF course the national commission,
too, will have to get in on the lime
light about the same time.
1t looks very much as if the Navy
eleven had struck it's second wind.
Jack McMasters is pretty sure to have
his charges ready for the Army game.
Because Yale had hard time with
Brown there seems to be general
tendency to proclaim Harvard a vic
tor over the Blue without taking into
consideration the fact that Yale's is
one of the best elevens of the year
on paper the very best.
Coming right down to hard pan,
Yales showing against Brown was not
much better than Princeton's against
Dartmouth. Yale has shown better
form throughout the season than
Princeton, a much more dependable
attack, but in the game which she was
expected to cut loose with power she
did very little better than Princeton
against Dartmouth. 1t will be two
chaStened eleyens that clash at Prince
