Boston, Feb 22.-The first holiday " the
year In Massachusetts brought generally
fair weather as an incentive to patriot
ism In honor OF the birthday of the first

ance of the day was general throughout
the state. Nearly all the revolutionary
societies held meetings. led by the Mass
achusetts Order of the Cincinnati Bells
rang from the steeples Of hundreds of
churches, but the enthusiasm of youth
did not extend to the explosive stage of
Independence day. There were plenty of
outdoor and indoor sports arranged for
the day, while good skating in the south
portion, and fine coasting in the north of
New England added much to the enjoy
ment of the day.
Bowling. checkers. chess. basketball,
boxing and other under-the-roof recrea-
lions furnished attractions for those who
liked warmth and comfort.

IN The COLLEGE GAMES THIS SEASON
Judging from Saturdays Games One May Reach That Conclusion
Noticeable Change All AonG the Line in Last Weeks
Games-Yale- Holy Cross Score Same as Last Years.

bridge collegans have stronger
eleven than last year Williams was
beaten out by an s to score last year
at Cambridge, while the Massachusetts
football warriors smothered the same
team, 21 to o. on Saturday. Cornell
scored 16 points against Oberlin last
year, and the latter eleven tailed 6
points in the same game. Neither side
scored in their contest last Saturday.
The Annapolis Rutgers contest was
another example. Last year the Mid
dies won, u to 3. Day before yester-
day the game ended in a noscore draw
West Point bettered her margin of
victory two points over Tufts by tally
ing "a points. while the Tufts team
was held seoreless. Last year Chicago
beat Indiana, u 20 0. This year the
decision was reversed by 6 to 0 score.
Lafayette won 22 to victory over
Swarthmore last season, and Saturday
the game ended with the score to 0.
Perhaps it is the unfamiliarity of the
players with the new rules which has
caused the tendency to lessen the size
of the scores, but, at any rate, it makes
the games more interesting by causing
the scores to be closer.
Yale coaches claim that the officials
are not strict enough H. penalizing the
players for attacking a man while he
is receiving a forward pass or in max
ing other breaches of the new rules.
They account thus for the accidents
that have happened this far at Yale

scene of the first battle. Interest is in
tense in Manhattan. as these two clubs
have never met before and both are In
second place. While the Giants are the
general fayorites, many like the chances
of the Yankees, and the series promises
to be close one. The spectacle of see
ing Russell Ford pitted against Christy
Mathewson will be big drawing card,
aud the attendance will probably be a
record-breaker, as the New York fan
has been clamoring for such series
for years, ever since in fact the Yanks
invaded Manhattan Hitherto Brush
has been opposed to such set of games,
but since the Boston Red Sox made
such runaway of it last year in the
post season series with the McGrawites,
Brush has changed his mind and real
ICES that his team and himself lost a
little prestige through the defeats.
That the American League season,
Just closed. has been a successful one
for all concerned, is the generally i'm
preston. Philadelphia easily outclassed
all of the other teams. and Connie Mack
won his third penhant.
