Fair to Eclipse Record
of Predecessor.
is VERY FAST ON HIS FEET

Gene Philbin. brother of the former
Yale star. is being lauded at New
Haven this week and spoken of as a
second edition of his illustrious
brother. Gene had the distinction
last Saturday of scoring the first
touchdown n Yale team has scored
against West Point in three seasons,
and naturally it is an honor worth
boasting. Philbin carried the ball
yer the Vineyard line for the only
six points scored lin the game, giving
Yale credit for a 60 victory.
Philbin has played consistently all
season in the Eli back field, being
especially dependable in the pinches
when his team is hard pressed, n
he usually goes in and makes the re-
ouired distance to enable Yale to re-
tain the ball. Philbin has been a big
factor in Yale's victories all season,
and has also shown versatility by
giving excellent secondary defense
when the Bulldog is protecting It's
goal line.

Fencers' New Regulations
Embody Foreign Rules

NEW YORK. Oct. PA statement
given out by the secretary OF the
Amateur Fencers' League of America
contains the announcement that the
code of rules governing fencing in
this country has been revised so as
to correspond closely with the
European code. The revision in
Nolving several radical changes, was
the result Of the experience gained by
the American s~wordsmen who COM
peted IN the Olympic meet at Stock
holm.
The action of the league eliminates
all the salient points of difference
that have existed between the Ameri-
can code and the International rules
that governed the competition at the
olympic games. 1t is practically an
embodiment of the foreign regula-
tons.

HERE'S A FOOTBALL
TRICK BEATING ALL

Vanderbilt University went up
against a funny play last Saturday
against Georgia. Following Wander
bits kickoff its opponents lined up
hurriedly in kick formation and then
shot a forward pass off toward the
side lines to a man dressed in citl-
zen's clothes, who stepped out on to
the gridiron as the ball came to him.
He ran down the. field forty yards
before nailed by the Vanderbilt quar-
terback,
TO the establishment of all he then
took off his hat. coat, shirt and trou-
sers and was found wearing a regu-
lar football suit beneath. Vanderbilt
had not noticed that only ten oppo-
nents were on the field when the ball
was kicked off.

CAPACITY WILL BE DOUBLED.

The work begun in 1907 of raising the level of the great Assuan dam m Egypt by five meters. and thus more than doubling its capacity, progressed during 1910 according to schedule. The dam as originally built had a capacity of 9S0,O00.O 900 cubic meters of water, but with the improvements this will be increased fo 2.30O. GOO, 900 cubic meters. The thickening work was finished from end to end in 1908 and 1909, and last year the locks, which completed to the new levels.
 An additional water height of seven meters will be secured from the height ening of the masonry by but five met CTS. This is because the water surface of the original dam. when full, was three meters below the top of the mas onry, because of the details of the iron work construction. Experience has shown that such a large freebOard IS not necessary and in the new dam the water will reach to within one weter of the roadway It is believed that the additional supply Of water will bring 1.000.000 acres of government land in Egypt into cultivation and to that eX- tent increase the cotton growing area Of that section.-Consular Report.
