 Mooney Gibson, who jumped into the limelight during the worlds baseball series as catcher for Pittsburg, has re- ceived an offer from New York to go in vaudeville.
 Dartmouth is likely to take the stand that next years game with Princeton should be played in New England. It would make quite a card for Spring field.-Boston Journal.
 Hartford scribes are inclined to blame the National commission be- cause the Hartford baseball club won't be able to get any money when Bill Luyster goes higher up.
 It may be a dislocation of popular theory, but the umpire is strangely missing in the mortality reports of baseball But it may possibly be urged that 1t comes under the head of justi- fable homicide.
 Hank Goede, the star shortstop of the Racine team of the Wisconsin, Illinois league, has appeared for the last time in a Racine uniform, as he has been drafted by the Hartford team of the Connecticut State league.
 Foster, Shurtleff and Nesmith were the Harvard coaches who saw the Princeton game. All are working with the Harvard second team, which will use Dartmouth's plays against the varsity this week.

BROWN COACH FAvoRs YALE.
Blue Line Has the Power-5ut Grim
 son Tackles Are Better.

After seeing the Brown team play against both Yale and Harvard, Coach Gammons of Brown believes that Harvard has the more shifty line than Yale, but that the latter has more power. He believes that Har- wards backfield is the more powerful, with Yales more versatile. Yale has the better ends. Gammons comedies Harvard the stronger tackles and the Yale center trio a shade better than Harvard.
 So it would seem that much de- bends on the condition in which the two teams come through their remain ing contests and in what shape they line up in the Stadium. Yale's advan- tage is a little further development, a trif1e more versatility and more in- dividuaI stars Harvard has better team work. both in the line and back field which may be counted to offset Yale's advantages to a large extent. This team work will be still more highly developed under Campbelrs eye in the next fortnight. If Yale is much battered by Princeton she will have little time to do more than rest and condition her players. If Harvard is not too hard pressed by Dartmouth the Crimson will have more time to put on the finishing touches than her rival Yale undoubtedly will be the favorite before the big game.

PRINCETON HOPES BRIGHTEN.
Tigers Run Up Five Touehdowns Against Second EIeven-But Still Weak on Kicks.

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 9.-The prac- tice of the Princeton team today in preparation for the Yale game next Saturday was the most encouraging of the season. Five touchdowns were scored by the varsity againt a strong second team. Pendleton, who is cap- tain of the freshmen team. scored the only touchdown for the scrubs on a 50-yard run, but the varsity defense was otherwise impregnable. Starks, Cunningham and Hart composed the first set of backs used and Read, Daw- son and Garritt were substituted for them. Hart and Sparks were the most conspicuous ground gathers. Weak ness on kkic formation was still evil dent. but the whole team showed more snap and vigor than it has in some time. The undergraduates again marched to the field today headed by a brass band and they cheered the team until the final whistle at sun down.

DUE FOR DRURBINe.
Princeton and Dartmouth Have Lit tie Chance Against Yale and Har- ward.

On their showings of last Saturday, both Princeton and Dartmouth are in for sound drubbings Saturday when they will respectively stack up against the football products of Yale and Har- yard. Both teams will probably be somewhat saved by the fact that their opponents do not expect to show their full strength of attack, both Yale and Harvard storing up their best for each other on November 20.
 This doesn't mean that Saturday's s games won't be worth going some dis tance to witness. The Tigers have a way of managing to keep the bulldog busy no matter how badly they have been lacerated by smaller opponents during the early season. They showed Saturday that they have a lot of power for Dartmouth has a strong de- fensive line from tackle to tackle, even if it hasn't much else save its wonderful fulIback, John Marks.
 Harvard has just the sort of team that ought to repel the Dartmouth att tack. The Crimson line has shown a wonderful defense and when it does waver. Harvard can show a great mighty Minot Dartmouth's attack in the main is John Marks in straight rushes at the line or in plays outside tackle When the Green meets the Crimson, all the Dartmouth attack, unless it is varied a lot this week, will have to right at the strongest points in Harvard's defense
 Princeton and Dartmouth have both fallen back a lot since last season. In the case of Dartmouth, there is ample reason. as it is the first time fresh men have been barred. Consequently the coaches have faced the impossible in attempts to fill the gaps left by the absence of Captain Kennedy and Schildmiller, the great ends of last season, of Hawley at halfback, and of Brusse at center. Lang fills in the vacancy left by Rich's removal, but last eason's substitute couldn't be ex- pected to balance up for the depart ure of four of the best football play CTS Dartmouth has produced
 fortnight ago it was supposed that Yale would have to uncover all it's best plays in it's game with Princeton and show it's hand to Harvard. Now the outlook is that Princeton will be just as easy for the Ellis as Dartmouth ought to be for Harvard. Barring a fluke, it is hard to see how Dart mouth has a scoring chance. The drop kicking ability of Cunningham makes Princeton a scoring probability any time she gets within Yale's SO- yard line.

Smashing Records On Atlanta Track
Strang's Mile in 377 Seconds-Aitken Beats 10 Mile Track Records-Jack McGrath Doing Good Work On the Mat-Football News.

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 9.-With the high est powered automobiles ever built driven by Americas best drivers, threatening existing track records At lantas new $250,000 automobile speed way was opened to the public today.
 Lewis Strang, in a 200 horsepower Fiat broke the mile record for an au- tomobile, covering the distance in BIT seconds. a little more than five seconds faster than the best previous record, A seconds. made by Oldfleld in Indianap- oils. The rate of speed was 95 1-2 miles an hour
 The event, which was free for all, had nine entries, but only six started. Basic in a Renault, Disbrow in a Rai- nier and Fitzpatrick in Hotchkiss did not line up. When they heard of that it was useless for them to try. Strang got away first. It was a fly ing start once and a half around the track and then off. The big Fiat nov ed out easily, gathering momentum in laundering jumps. Then as it crossed the starting line, a mile away from the grand stand, it seemed to take wings and fly. The prizes were two cups, with S200 offered for a broken record.
 Following is the order in which they finished and the time: First, Lewis Strang, Fiat. 37.70 seconds; second Barney Oldfeld, Benz, 4O.13 seconds; third, Walter Christie, Christie, 4313 seconds; fourth. John M Ruthrford Stearns BOSS seconds.
 The ten mile stock chassis was won by John Aiken. driving a National, in S2722 His teammate, Tom Kincaid was second, S.27.71.
 The tenmile stock chassis, 161 to 230 was won by Joe Matson in a Chalmers Dearoit. His teammate. Kniper, was close second. Time, 9.49.46.
 The ten mile free for all handicap was won by Stillman. in a Marmon.
 John Aitl1en. starting from scratch in a sixty horsepower National lower ed the worlds track record for ten miles, going in S.02.41, as compared with the previous resord (Oldfelds) of S.15.90.
 Strang, from standing start, won the two mile free for all in 1.31.63. Oldfield. driving his big Benz, was sec ond in 1.3L1S: Aiken. in a National, third. in 1.43.72. and Christie, who had repaired his injured valve, fourth, in 1.5104
 Louis Chevrolet, driving thirty horsepower Buick, won the 200 mile race. averaging 72 miles an hour. Time 2.46.4S.

Mass Meeting to Practice Songs
 cffense and Defense Strong.

New Haven, Nov. 9.-Two touch downs were made by the Yale varsity football eleven in the scrimmage with the scrub team today. All the regular men were in the lineup with the ex- ception of Iilley, whose place was taken by Paul, who played a fast of fensive game and showed that he had entirely recovered from the injury to his knee which threatened to lay him up for the rest of the season. Both touchdowns were made by Captain Coy following a series of direct line plunges. Howe ran the team at quar- terback through the scrimmage and signal drill. The team was tested on the offense and for long time on the defense. In the latter the scrubs were not only unable to score, but could make no decisive gains.

Plan to Organize Five in Third Com

If the Third company, c. A. C., takes up with the proposition that is to be put up to them at their meeting on Thursday night. Norwich stands a chance of having basketball team to represent it for the coming season. Leo Bruette is anxious to get a team or ganized in the company, and have it entered in league that might be form ed around here. and he intends to bring the matter up at a company meeting at once He has conferred with Captain Hagberg and Lieutenant Coleman. securing their endorsement of the plan and the offer of the use of the armorv for the games, so>that an excellent floor for the sport is pro- vided.
 All that would be needed to put the team on would be some suits. as the baskets and hall that were formerly used are still on hand at the armory. There seems material enough in the csmpalIy to build up d. strong five, and pnblic interest in the games would be assured as this would be the only ac- tive indoor sport in town for the win ter season.
