New Haven. Conn. Jan. 3.-The Yale

were by small scores.

on its recent trip and another which con

that the matter can be adjusted without
the formal disqualification Of the Yale
team, which VIII open its Intercollegiate

How Southern League officials expect
any mogul to bag fifteen men for s.. zoo
a month is a mystery. This amount aver
ages around $50 per athlete, and no one
can land good men at this price There

good many necessarily run several
notches above this amount. Charley
