the campaign with a victory
There is really no favorite for the con-
test Early in the season Western won
from Tech by to ;, and ordinarily
would not have had another Opportu-
nifty TO meet the team from across Rock
Greek
However, following a protest, the
principals held an investigation and
found that one of the Western players
was not eligible With this one out of
the lineup Western went down before
Eastern. thereby causing a tie in the
race, to decide which today's game was
arranged
In addition to the championship itself,
the teams are playing for the Princeton
cup Should Tech win today the trophy
will become the permanent property of
that school, which already has two legs
on the cup. while If Western is winner
it will go to that institution for one
year
Like all such decisive games in the
scholastic leagues today's contest PROM
Uses 20 be a battle, between the pitchers,
who has done consistently good work
all season, while Tech is counting on

Yale football.

That is rather a radical departure
which Jack Field, the Washingtonian,
who is coach Of the Yale football team,
will make next fall when he does not
take the gridiron squad away from pre-
limirary work, but instead have all the
practice at New Haven.
While Lakeville, where the team
trained for a while last season, is not
far from New Haven, the conditions
there are calculated to arouse the men
TO their best efforts. Now the team has
been ordered to report at college on
September IA. which will give the men
about two weeks to prepare for the
opening game of the season.
During the past two years Yale's pres
tiRe in football has not been greatly in
creased, but If conscientious work can
Accomplish anything, Jack Field should
have a winning aggregation next No

nes almost any one that the pennant

While it is unfair to attempt to gauge
the strength of a ball team when such

is little that is truly impressive about

Jim Delehanty improves.

Watching Jim Delehanty yesterday
one would have hard time coming to
a realization Of the fact that this was
the same player who was here but two
years ago.
Delehanty has improved wonderfully
since he Joined Hughey Jennings & Co,
and. although he is out of his regular
position at first base, he fills the bill
we'll.
Yesterday he beat out three infieid
hits, had eleven putouts. and made one
assist.

of the great Ed doing so well.

Harvard satisfied.
An alumnus of Harvard today sent
me the following clipping from the Har-
ward Alumni Bulletin, which speaks for
itself:
The defeat OF the crew at Ithaca last
Saturday should not have caused sur
prise, although it was disappointing.
College boat races, whatever they may
have been, are not now contests be-
tween crews made up of students; they
are matches between professional
coaches. Inasmuch as Cornell has the
best coach in the country it is not to
be wondered at that Cornell wins by far
the greater part of the races in which
her crews take part.

Courtney was one of the two or three
best professional oarsmen in the world,
and for ABOUT twenty-five years he has
been engaged in teaching other men how
to row."

Especial from United Press. )


 Washington, March 6.-With Dem- ocratic leaders of the next House in conference on a program, today, the impeachment of Secretary of the In terior BalIinger as one of the big features of the extra session, loomcd up as a strong probability.
 Representative Ollie James, (Dem., Ky), who was the ranking Demo- crat on the Ballinger-Pfnchot invesri- gating committee, Is leading the movement for impeaching Ballinger. He has framed a resolution calling for trial of the cabinet officer and proposes to push it just as soon after the session opens as possible James, today, declared for sweeping in- vestigation of every executive depart ment by the Democratic House com mittees.
 The impeachment resolution, &C., cording to the present plan, will De introduced either by James himself, or by Graham, (Dem., Ills.). who wrote the minority opinion on the Ballinger investigation. It will be referred to the judiciary committee.

Adherent of StratfOrd Annexa- ti0n Explains That Whole
 Matter Rests With the People

Objectfng seriously to the ru1nors that there is an attempt afoot to an- nex portion Of Stratford to the city of Bridgeport without the consent either of Stratford or of Bridgeport, an adherent of the project explained to a Farmer reporter this morning that such an impression is entirely erroneous. and is being spread by enemies of the project in order to cre- ate sentiment against 1t.
 According to the terms of the meas ure. the annexation will not become a fact until the people of Stratford have voiced their approval of it by a cil of the city of Bridgeport likewise has approved 1t.
 sAnd in addition to this." explained the Farmers informant Attorney James A. Marr. who represented us at the hearing at the Capitol last the men whom he represented are en- tirely willing that the referendum shall be made even stronger. and that the proposed measure shall not become a law until the people of Stratford. the Common Council of Bridgeport, and the people of Bridgeport have given their approval.
 ''The whole thing resolves itself in- to this: We are simply asking that the people of the two towns shall be given a chance to express their de- sire on this matter.
 eff the people of Stra ford and the people of Bridgeport want annexation. they should have it. If they don't want annexation. that settles 1t. I know that there Is strong sentiment for the project in both Stratford and Bridgeport. and it certainly is a good principle Of government that the peo- pie should be given chance to ex- press their opinions at the polls. The entire expense of such vote wouldn't be more than S10 for ballots.
 'AIl these runnors are simply at tempts to befog the issue and mislead the people. There is but on measure under consideration and that is the one introduced by MT. Sexton.
