HARVARD AND YALE HAVE
STRONG FOOTBALL TEAMS

With the football season nearing it's
close, two ,elevens shine out rs strong
contestants for the intercollegiate
championship for 1909-,Harvard and
Yale. These teams have made by far
the best records of any university clev-
ems in the east, and already it is prac-
tically certain that the question of SUI
premaoy viii be narrowed down to a
choice between them.
To summarize the two teams as they
now stand, Yale has the better of Har-
ward because of the superior work OF
the back field The Ellis can hang on to
the ball better when they have it than
several of the Harvard backs seem to
be able to do; and Coy is probably
superior to Minot i'm his punting and
drop kicking. otherwise there does
not seem to be much choice. The
Harvard backs can go through oppos-
ing lines i'm brilliant fashion, and If
they can only overcome their tendency
TO let the ball get away from them
they can gain rs much ground as Phil
bin. Coy and DAILY.
From tackle to tackle, Harvard seems
to have something on Yale; but ques-
ton of supreme importance ~ that re-
garding the ability of Harvards ends.
The Ellis have eight ends, all of varsity
caliber; Harvard has only four that
look particularly good. At quarter.
Harvard looks stronger, for OFlaherty
and Wilgesworth are both clever field
generals. while the quarterback prob
lem has been the most serious question
that has confronted the Yale coaches

WILL CONSIDER THREE BIDS.
Coffroth, Gleason or McCarey to Land
Jeffries johnson FIGHT.

New York, Nov. 1G.-The tentative
bids for the Jeffries- Johnson prizs
fight, which are expected to be con-
siderably thinned out by December /,
include two offers from San Francis
co, one from Los Angeles, two from
the state of Washington, one from
Idaho, one from Nevada. one from
Oklahoma, one from Paris, and one
from Australia AS both Jemries and
Johnson have expressed preference
for California, and as it is doubtful
the fight can be held elsewhere in this
country, il is considered more than
probable that the big fight will go to
Coffroth, or Gleason, Of san Fran
cisco, or McCarey oi Los Angeles.
Jeffries is strongly opsoed to fighting
outside of this country

UNIQUE HOCKEY Team MAY
PLAY IN COPPER COUNTRY
Smith Brothers, famous throughout
Canada Will Organize and Expect to
Tour the States Next Winter-Def-
mite Route Will Be Decided Upon
Later.

Fort William, Nov. 16--It is prac-
tically settled that the famous Smith
Brothers hockey septette will be or
ganized To tour through Canada and
northern parts of the States. Such
was the announcement made recently
by Mr.. Smith, father of this marvel
lous family of hockey players. The
consent of all the boys has now been
secured and it is only a matter of a
little while before a rendezvous will
be set, "A little practice put i'm and then
the tour commenced.
Ottawa seems to be the favorite
place for the start. They would all
go to the capital where they would
be able TO secure the use of good
sheet of ice early in the season.
The course OF the trip is uncertain
as yet. 1t will cover Canada quite
thoroughly especially through the
east, but so far no towns west of
Winnipeg are mentioned on the pro-
posed route. 1t is due to the long
jumps that the western towns will
have to be cancelled from the sche-
dule. Pittsburg will likely be one of
the first towns played in. for there
they have artificial ice at quite an
early date. Chicago and Cleveland
among other cities will have the honor
of visit from this unprecedented
team of hockey players. Cleveland al
ready is enjoying a fine sheet of ar
tifcial ice opened on the 9th of No
vcmbcr. Boston and New York may
not be touched on the first rush
through the States, but if time is left
after the regular trip has been made
games will likely be played there
The idea seems to be to start at OF
tawa, then jump across to Pittsburg,
tour west through Cleveland, Chicago,
Houghton, Calumet, Duluth and up To
Winnipeg, from there start east. play
ing at Kenora, Fort William, Port Ar
thur Gait, Cobalt Brantford and other
towns and cities in northern Ontario
finally reaching the real eastern hook
ey towns. where by this time i'm good
shape the team would be better able
to cope with the crack septettes.

When he comes back the result OF
the game will practically be decided

terbacks. If Yale is stronger on the
wings Harvard seems TO have the call
at the other positions. Taking every
thing into consideration. the chances
are that when the two eleyens line up
against each other they will be about
as evenly matched as they well can be.

Redden Wants to Win.

Curtis Redden, who is helping Yost
coach the varsity, was captain of the
team that played Minnesota the fall
of 1908. Most of the students now
at Michigan have forgotten the cir
cumstanccs of the game, and what
ever bitterness ever existed from this
end has died down. Not so with
Redden. He still maintains that Mich
igan should have won that game, ana
he also insists that he never will be
satisfied until Michigan evens the
score by winning from Minnesota.
And if his coaching efforts can bring
about the result, Michigan will be re-
turned victors Saturday.
After six weeks with the squad
Yost has become accustomed to the
change that has come over Benbrooll
this year. But the students haven't.
