W DREAM
, CAME TRUE BUT
NOT FOR HIM

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Nov. 20.-rhe
Yale varsity football squad spent the
Sabbath at the Meriden Country Club,
and last night WAS far from being
demoraliaed by the victory of Prince
ton Saturday. The night before the
game Captain Howe had a dream that
M of the teams would win on a long
run. the result of a f1uke.
Captain Howe has told the men to
forget Saturdays game. Tom Shevlin
has called to their attention that the
total scores of the season are greater
for Yale than for Princeton and that
there Is a chance to efface the memory
of the defeat by a victory owe Har-
ward Saturday.
The team came out of Saturdays
contest in good physical condition.
Camp didn't show the strain of the
game at all. Captain Howe was groggy
through part of the second half, but
yesterday was in fairly good condition.
Anderson was hurt as soon as he went
into the game, but will be able to play
against Harvard.

EDDIE COLLINS ALSO
A STAR AT FOOTBALL

When men play baseball folks forget
that they may have once answered q
ouarterback's signal and plunged into
a line of flesh, moleskin and jersey, in
stead of blowing a furrow in soft loan
toward a square of bulging, hair-filled
ducking. Christy M%athewson and Ed
die Collins, of the ~present-day league
stars, are also the football stars Of
baseball. They still tell a story OF the
wonderful play fPhiladelphia's second
baseman made when he was a "rah-
rah' at the University of Columbia.
Collins starred in the Columbia-Am-
herst battle of 1905 just as he has
starred in world series games since.
Collins was only a sub on the CO.
lumbia varsity hat fall, which was
coached by Bill Morley. Collins didn't
get his chance until the last 1--WE min
utes, with the score standing 10 to 6
in favor of Amherst, with the ball on
Columbia's 20-yard line.
Il replace Donovan" yelled Eddie
to the referee when he dashed out from
Z tho sidelines, just as full of pepper
as he is now prancing about second.
Collins could run in the open field,
and Morley knew It. Eddie had orders
/. to call his own signal. Donovan had
been playing quarterback. Eddie did.
I'd He was thrown for a loss by the
amherst ends
Eddie called it again.
II The blue and white crowd of Co
lumbia rose en- masse as they saw the
streaks of Collins blue and white
socks going around the end he had
been thrown by. Five, ten, fifteen,
twenty yards he ripped off before
somebody got him. Collins finally, in
four plays, took the ball to the 20
yard line.

II replace Collinsl' yelled a fellow
named Schultz. who had never been in
a varsity game before, although he
had been four years ON the squad.

BARR0W'S
FIGHT IS
NOW WON
Eastern League Enjoys Class
A A Rating--Pac. Coast League
and Association in, Too.

President Edward 6. Barrow, of the
Eastern League. is being congratulated
today by his friends for his successful
fight in conjunction with the American
Association and the Pacific Coast
League for higher rating. Barrow was
one Of the strongest advocates of the
progressive attitude of the big minor
leagues and his political moves had
much to do with the intimate result
as the influence of anyone else.
The Eastern League is now thinking
of rewarding. it is said. its president
with a fiye-year term. The advantages
of such a move are at onc manifest,
for it would make him absolutely In
dependent of petty politics and he
could rule strictly according to his own
judgment.
That the Eastern league did not en-
joy as successful a season as might
have been the case could in no way be
traced to resident Barrow. 1t, is
averred that he tried to put through
deals which would give financial
strength to some of the weaker sisters.
The three leagues benefited by the
new rating will undoubtedly receive
many advantages through 1t. In the
first place the m:.jor leaguers will be
a bit more respectful. The leagues
gain the prestige thich they rightly
deserved, instead of being rated the
same as the Southern and the West
ern leagues, organizations that were
vastly Inferior so far as attendance and
playing are concerned.

YALE-PRTNCETON GAME AFTERMATH

Princeton's supremacy in Eastern
college football, while won by a very
narrow margin. is nevertheless COM
plete and deserved beyond question.
All season the critics have declared
that while the Tigers had a stonewall
defense, 1hey were not strong in often
sive plays, and that they could hardly
BIO expected to beat the powerful
elevens at Harvard and Yale. The re-
suit proves that when the defense is
truly strong victory may be attained
without a whirlwind attack.
Captain Hart attained his ambition.
Twice he had played against Yale and
been defeated. Hart Is modest and
gives all of the credit to his men.
Princetonians. including Hart, seem
to think that Harvard will defeat Yale
next Saturday.
At the outset of the season Head
Coach Roper decided to build up a
perfect defense. There Is an old say
ing that a team is no stronger than
its line. Roper went a bit further and
said tits defense He figured that IL
his men could hold the other team
down and prevent them from scoring
the very worst they could get was a
draw. His system panned out 10 per
lection, for Princeton look advantage
of the breaks and now boasts the
college baseball and football champion
ships of the year.
Eddie Harris name will go down as
one of Princeton's captains who led a
team TO victory over Yale.
That the wet field was a handicap
to Princeton cannot be denied. Prince
ton had the greater speed, the more
brilliant open attack. but had to dis
card it to meet conditions. Those who
saw the Tigers practise last week say
that the Orange and Black had a be-
wildering repertoire Of onside kicks.

KENNEDY-PALZER BATTLE
NEXT PUGILIS TIC TREAT.

The next big contest that the boxing
fans are looking forward to is the ten
round bout on November 20 betweelt
Tom Kennedy and Al Palzer. which will
be decided at the clermont Rink, in
Brooklyn.
The fans remember the sensational
contest they fought last August at the
National Sporting Club. when Kennedy
lost in nine rounds after holding the
lead for seven rounds. At that time
Big Tom claimed his defeat was due to
lack of condition, not that he failed to
train for the bout, but that he was NOT
seasoned enough to go through the ter
rifle battle that they fought. Since
then he has trained most faithfully,
and this time he will have no excuse
to offer.

an athlete of renown. Aside from his
prowess on the field. he is popular be-
cause of personal qualities. He won
the baseball game for Princeton
against Yale last spring much the
same as he won the Harvard and

sensational chance on the bases.

otherwise have gained.
