HERMANN MAKES
SEVERAL SUGGESTIONS
TO MINOR LEAGUES.

Garry Hermann, chairman of the
National Commission, in "a letter to j.
II. Farrell, secretary of the National
Association, seems to favor a plan
whereby the Eastern, American Asso-
citation and the Pacific Coast League
will receive a class A. A. rating.
He suggests that the National Com
mission appoint a committee to decide
the matter on December II at New
York, on the day before the big league
meeting. Some of the minor leaguers
want a rule that each major league can
draft only a certain number of players
each fall. Another suggestion is a
measure to prevent covering up SO that
a minor Lacquer sold to a major league
club must report Immediately to his
new owners. Also thai a ball player
drafted from a small league should be
given "a chance to make good in a class
A league before being turned back to
the lower leagues by the majors. The
question of whether the Eastern, Asso-
citation and Coast League should have
permission to draft in any new terri
tory at their will is a question that
must be decided by the smaller leagues
themselves. 1t is improbable tina 1t
will materialize. for in most cases it

Hot Hot Off the Big College Gridirons

Colgate, coached by Ken Ingersoll,
made a splendid showing against Penn
State, of Cornell and Penn
sylyania. scoring nine points against
seventeen.
West Point had not played Bucknell

with Bucknell n dropped a
Z goal from the forty-yard line that all
but tied the score.

years and sending him to quarter.

coaching could make it possible to cor
rect some of the glaring defects of team
play.
Some OF the formations which are be-
ing banked upon heavily to win the
Princeton game were used with little sue
cess. Their execution was palpably ragged
and the coaches finally gave up trying
to make them work.
The varsity was driven against two
sets of opponents. first the freshmen then
the scrubs. each being buried against the
regulars twice. Weakened by the loss
of the scientific school disqualified play
ers. the freshmen were easy to pene-
trate, but the varsity scored only twice
in fifteen minutes line ramming. Against
the stalwart scrubs the varsity made lit
tie impression. becoming more and more
unsteady in their team game and finally
hating for evening dress rehearsal.
Dunn returned to the eleven and was
again assigned to fullback, the only place
whose occupant is not now regarded as
settled for the Princeton game here Sat
urday. His work seemed the best of the
Yale backfield, and he is the probable
choice IN Saturday. He was the only
member OF the bacllfield to remain in the
practise OF the afternoon.
Freeman and Camp were early deposed.
Reilly and Anderson succeeding them,

Dunn scored one Of the two touehdowns,
shooting clear for a S5-yard run. the long

BAD WEATHER DOES NOT

HAY FOUNDRY TEAMS.

Bad weather had its effect on Hay

were on the job, but had j. not been
showing it is practically certain that
there would have been at least five
teaTls more. 1t was also reported that
not a few of the Hay Foundry people
were on half-time, and this fact was
cited as a reason for some of the ex-
pected performers being absent.
The bowlers were disappointed be-
cause none was able to annex n of
the watchfobs offered by the STAR to
those who roll scores of 100 or better.
Not a few were near the century mark,
but none reached it. Brooks. in the
second squad. started with a strike n

but only tailed 9S. His was the hest
mark of the match. All the scores are
