All the witnesses, including Lopez, had changed front. Lopez said they were merely playing" They were good friends, and Alvarez would not have hurt him for the world The two wit nesses who had said that Alvarez plunged the knife directly at Lopez's breast, yesterday said that he was was holding the knife in his hand and carelessly threw his hand to one side without noticing that Popez was in range.

Alameda recreation grounds by the

Mackay also discovered good holes
and made good gains. The goal was
missed. giving Fremont the lead of 65.
The second score was largely due to
several successful forward passes
which were big gamers and carried the
ball well into their opponents terri

Mackay made fine buck of 15 yards
from the 20 yard line and kizer carried

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 1S.-The
football teams of Harvard and Yale
rested quietly tonight some miles from

still to be gained.

seats for $4,000 persons, many of
whom are already crowding into Bos-

pected Will be the finest exhibition of
modern football ever played in Amer

The custom of sending the two teams
into comparative seclusion 4S hours be-
fore the game was followed today. Har-
ward went to the Norfolk hunt club at
Medfield. while Yale came UP from New
Haven to stay for couple of days at
the Woodland Park hotel at Auburn
dale.
The Yale men will probably take a
trolley trip to the stadium tomorrow
afternoon to become acquainted with
the grounds.
The Harvard team led by Cantafn
Fish, was given enthusiastic sendoff
this afternoon. There were few limp
ers. and even Captain Fish, who re-
ceived a hard blow in the chest Ia st
Saturday, skipped about Harvard
square in a style that belied rumors
that he would not be. in the lineup.
Yale is not free from an injured list

of concessions from the racetrack man
agement is another action which 1 be-
lieve the law shuts out. There will be
prosecutions based on every alleged
violation of any of these points The
law will be thoroughly tested in court
and from every possible point
Il will have plain clothes men in at
tendance at the track on the opening
day and they will be instructed to make
arrests in every such instance as have
outlined.
Il have read the New York state de-
cision on the law which broke up track
gambling there and on which the Cali

our law absolutely prohibits racetrack
gambling.
1T certainly prohibits book making

Donahue also included the proposed
depositing of cash with an outside
stake holder and the presenting of a
credit slip for that amount to any other
person by oral betting under the ban.
This would come under the head of
recording bets in his opinion.
The first arrest made will be rushed
through to trial in order to secure the
courts opinion as early as possible
upon all the disputed features.
