Battle With Harvard.

PRINCETON, N. j., November l.
Cheered by practically the entire under
graduate body, the Princeton foot ball
team left here at $50 this morning for
Cambridge, where it will line up against
Harvord tomorrow afternoon on Soldiers
Field. The squad will go to Auburndale,
Mass, suburb Of Boston, today and
will spend the night there, proceeding to
Cambridge about noon tomorrow. There
Is d possibility that the varsity and sub
stitute elevens will indulge in a signal
drill at Auburndale late this afternoon.
Immediately after the game tomorrow
the entire Princeton squad will leave
Boston for a two-day trip to Atlantic
City, where the players will have a short
rest before starting to prime up for the
majority of the undergraduates will leave
for Boston by special train this after
noon.
Orange and Black followers are hope
full, but by no means confident of repeat
ing their victory of last year. The gen.
eral opinion among the undergraduates is
that the Princeton eleven will have to
make up in fight and alertness what
it lacks in weight.
So far as is known, little Princeton
money has been sent to Cambridge in
advance, but it is expected that the
students will take considerable ready
cash with them. Princeton expects the
Crimson to be on the long end of the
odds.

One Of the liveliest scrimmages Of the

The coaches realize that the team will

team which faced Carlisle last Saturday
will not meet North Carolina Saturday.
Sam Foley was used at halfback in place

Foley did well. He is fast. and is a
great runner with the ball in the open.

Before the scrimmage Coach Gargan

Report.
CLASH WITH WOOD
SAID TO BE CAUSE
Bedient's Record by Far the
Best in Recent Series With
McGraW's Giants.
BY J. ED GRILLO.

Buck OBrien, one of the star twirlers
OF the worlds champion Red Sox, is not
apt to be member of that team next
season. Reports from reliable source
are to the effect that O'Brien is to be
sold or traded. and that the Chicago
| White Sox stand the best chance Of Sc
! curing his services.
Though frequently denied, there is no
doubt that O'Brien and Wood had a
! run-in during the worlds series. This
clash caused a lot of dissension in the
team and President McAleer and Manager
Stahl seem to have come to the conclu-
sion that the wisest thing to do for the
benefit of the team would be to rid it
of OBrien.
1t is said that negotiations for O'Brien's
transfer to Chicago are already under
way, though it has not yet been decided
whether Callahan will give players in ex-
change or pay spot cash for him.
u Briens reported clash with Wood
of his making balk in the sixth game of
the series. which gave the Giants a five
run lead in the first inning. This was the
Monday game in New York. Wood had
expected to pitch this game, so the story
goes. and, being confident that he would
win, had instructed his brother to bet on
the SOx. To his surprise. O'Brien was
pitched and the defeat of the Sox result
ed 1t seems that Wood upbraided
OBrien for his balk after the game and
the latter. becoming angry, struck Wood
knocking him down. Naturally, the Bos-
ton players took sides on the matter and
the wonder was that the team won the
series under those conditions.
1t was later reported that Wood and
OBr1en had made up. but evidently this
was not satisfactory to the club owner
and manager, who Immediately set about
to rid the team of it's spit ball artist.

BY J. ED GRILLO.

Denials registered by Horace Fogel are
not apt to change the standing or his
case in the least, for it is claimed by
those who want to drive Fogel out OF
base ball that they are in possession OF
conclusive evidence against him. Ac-
cording to reports, Fogel made his accu-
sation against the National League UNI
pires in writing over his signature and
sent 1t to a Chicago paper after being
turned down by the papers In his own
city. The Chicago paper printed the COM
munication over the Fogel John Hand
cock, and the original manuscript is now
in the hands Of the league to be used as
evidence. Under such conditions Foger s
denial does not amount to much. If he
had made the accusations by word of
mouth there might be a chance for de-
NAL, but as it Is, he has his name signed
to all the accusations he made, and it
will, therefore, not be an easy matter to
convince the other members of the Ma
tional League that he did not say what
he is charged with.
Fogel, of course, never had any grounds
for making the charges. He became riled
over the defeats his team suffered and
charged it's shortcomings to the umpires.
But that fact does not excuse him in the
least, and there is but little doubt that
the other seven members Of the league
will take a firm stand against him.
For the fourth time in his long career
In base ball, George Stallings will be at
the head Of a major league team again
next season, having been chosen to take
| the place of Johnny King as manager
| of the Boston Braves. Though Stallings
has been shifting from major to minor
| company on numerous occasions, 1t Is a
| matter Of record that he has never made
a failure of his major league engage

phia, had winner In Detroit and he
made the best showing Of any manager
that New York had after Griffith left

| however, Stallings has been forced back
| into the minors after every one of these

| been any question as to his capabilities.

almost worthless to his team. He is a
poor fielder, a weak man on the bases
and lacks what is most essential-ag-

it's batting prowess alone. Jackson would
have to be a member of it, but it has
been shown by the standing of the Maps
