W
IN HERE have been many argu-
mentS as to the payment of
II bets in the Yale-Harvard game
Saturday. Men who took bets from
XThose who wagered that Harvard
would win in many instances demanded
that they had won, inasmuch as Har-
yard had failed to win. Murray Broth
ers paid all men making such demands,
fbut where u claims were not made,
. the money was returned to the men
who bet on Harvard. Unless it was
specified that there must be a decision,
4 either a victory or a defeat to be a bet,
4 those who wagered that Harvard would
win should lose, because Harvard failed
to win. There were three possibilities
|sin betting in Saturdays game. Ths
contest could be a victory, a defeat or
a tie. And three bets could have been
made. Some people consider Yale bet
tors, who insisted that they cash in, as
poor sports, but when one applies logic
I to the situation. they are not 'pikers."

Z Just to give you an idea of how the
small minor leagues by their greater
humble control the Glass A clubs read
this: Rochester, the pennant winner
in the Eastern League-the greatest
minor organization-for two years and
at least a contender next year, put in
"a bid for the next meeting of the minor
.udeagues. New York was suggested
also. San Antonio, Tex, was put in
the running and peat both New York
and Rochester, getting about twenty
votes against about seven and nothing
for the other two, respectively. That's
"a shame. What a representative gath
sering that will be at O Antonio, Tex!
Why are the big minor leagues allowed
to be held in bondage by the smaller
dry unless the big leagues ant them
where they are? It's a pity!
o
Owners william Grayson, jr., of the
Louisville club, and Charles T Chaplin,
Tpf the Rochester team, are two of the
smallest, If not the smallest, in the
baseball business. Besides their fame.
<fbecause Of their size. the two little
fellows are wv of the greatest hustlers
ever. Grayson was hustling at the
minor leagues meeting recently. Larry
\ Sutton made a mental picture OF
DGrayson and Chaplin as hustlers and
chrfstened them the Rumble Bee
! Twins" much to the delight of those
who know the two men.

Alverson, the former Newark High
football star, was pretty much the
whole show in the Rutgers-Stevens
game on Saturday. He scored all of
Rutgers eight points, making one
touchdown and then dropping the bah
over the goal posts from a difficult
angle On his opponents 3S-yard line
when the game was almost over. The
final score of the game was 8 to 6 and
settles the minor college football cham

the candidates for the presidency of

bday in New York. The two were
candidates last year, but Penniman
Withdrew to promote harmony. At the

5not run for another time, but his
friends have prevailed upon him to do
