Democratic leaders in the Senate
had apparently gathered added
strength yesterday for the prososcd
movement to prevent the confirmation
of the majority Of President Taft's
appointments to Office that will be
made in the last three months Of his
administration. It IS understood nov
that practically all of the postof.ce
appointments will be "pocketed" by
senators from the interested districts
wherever they might be effected b. q
change of administration March 4.
Forty-GiX witnesses for the prosecu-
ton had yet to be heard, and the for
ty-seventh was still awaiting eros
examination by the defense, when the
Archibald impeachment trial was re-
sumed in the Senate today. Since
practically all of the testimony heard
thus far from Ed. J. Williams and ".
a. May has been repetition of that
given last spring before the judiciary
committee Of the House, the senator 5
and spectators in the galleries have
had little cause for interest in the pro-
ceedings.

HOW PRINCETON
AND YALE WILL
LINE UP TODAY

mentors have found a task Of jam
ming ten days work into five. Upon
what they have accomplished since
last Saturday depends Yales
chances to beat the Tigers.
The Yale team, in a summary
glance, can be cIassed as probably
the greatest collection of football
players among the big three. Yale
as a team is a different PROPOSE
ton. Last Saturday il was not o
team that beat Brown. II was
merely q bunch Of individual stars
with hardly any Cooperation op
uniform method. This, it seems to
US, is due almost entirely to a su-
perfiuity Of coaches, the men be-
coming confused by the conflict Of
ideas damned into their heads, A
poor grade of coaching, well
drummed into a team, is better in
our opinion than twenty different
styles OF best grade coaching, con-
fused and untaught to the men.
If Yale has become adjusted into
n team with team work, it looks
from here as if the Tigers are due
for their doom. If Yale has not pro-
crossed in the last few days past
the individual stage, it is good bye
Els, and possibly a neat little to-
tai run up by the Orange and Black
Yale teams have accomplished the
almost superhuman in single weeks
of past years. notably Days team
of two years ago.
Have they repeated this year?
We doubt It. In other words We
think Yale is in for spanking.
Harvard has quite bit more
than a sinecure on It's hands in the
person Of the Dartmouth eleven.

1912 Proves Poor Year for Champion Fighters

gave him the scare of his fair
young life, as the following account
from New York paper will show:
Ten thousand persons saw Kid
Williams, the lightning little ban
tam from Baltimore, gave Johnny
Coulon, the champion of the class,
a decisive beating last night at
Madison Square Garden in ten
rounds. AS it is against the law in
this state to give decisions, Coulon
still holds the title. Had the bout
been staged where the referee
might declare a winner, a tow
headed lad who was a newshoY q
short time ago might be the weareT
of the crown. Coulon weighed 11a
pounds and Williams scaled three
pounds more stripped
out Of the ten rounds there was
only one in which the champion
had the better of the argument, the
second. The fourth and the sew
enth were close enough to be called
even. The rest of it was all in ia
vor of Williams"

KING COLE NOW
MANAGER Of A
BARBER SHOP
By r. W. Lardner.

* HICAGO, Nov. 1G.-That
things can happen in the
Corn Exchange Bank build
ing, even when Charles w. Murphy
is out of town. is almost too much
to believe. Nevertheless, with the
Cub owner in Milwaukee, a deal
was pulled off thereon the tenth
floor. toby which King Cole
climbed to a managerial position.
No, the King has not robbed
Johnny Evers of his job, nor is he
going to Cincinnati TO succeed
Hank O'Day. He has been appoint
ed bench manager for John the
Barber. with a possibility that, in
a pinch, he will do some shaving
and haircutting himself.
Mr.. Cole and Mr.. John were
brought together in Mr.. MurphS's
office by Diplomat Al Campion. Al
hates to have any one mad at his
boss. and King had not been feel
ing any too cordial toward Preai-
dent Murf since the we'll known
Pittsburg trade. Al figured that if
he should prove instrumental in
finding a lucrative occupation for
King during the winter months,
much Of Mi. Coles soreness would
wear off.
Conference Lasts Three Hours.
John and the King We're cluseted
for three hours. At the end of the
conference the former announced
that he had signed Leonard to
spend the off season in his shop and
direct the work Of the BARRIERS.
1t win be recalled that King took
tonsorial degree in Iowa before
lie broke into league baseball. He
will have absolute authority over
the men in the shop, and the Gus
toners, too. telling them what
touics to use, whether they Shall be
combed wet or dry. shaved close or
far-away. attacked with shears or
clippers. singed or shampooed,
massaged by hand or machine, aud
whether or not their shoes need
shining. He will also name the
amount OF the tips and share in
them.
Asked for a statement regarding
his appointment. King replied:
why all this superhuous ton
serial herpicide? The matter is
sine qua non. l have nothing else
to say"
Murphy Shaves in That Shop.
President Murphy has his ia
cial and hirsutlcal work done in
Johns place. After this he will be
waited on during Kings lunch hour.

Yale-Princeton Game Biggest on Schedule Today
Harvard Meets Dartmouth; Indians Face Pennsy

The Green team, when it lost to
Princeton, looked much like the
Yale outflt-a great array Of mate
rial without polish. The over
whelming Of Amherst and Cornell
since then would indicate that the
Hanoverians may have improved,
but It is almost too much to ex-
pect them to beat the Crimson,
which has defeated their only con-
querors. This game holds unusual
appeal because Of the temperance
of the great goal-kicking Charley
Brickley on the battlefield.
indiana Too Tough For Pennsy.
Those who watch the Carlisle In
dams attack the Penn in Quaker
town stand a good chance of wit
Messing the most spectacular game
of the day, the most picturesque.
The remarkable brace of the Penn
sylvanians in the Michigan game,
slashing TO victory after being ,
points to the bad, has brought
them back in our midst with glee
and gusto. Penn, always noted for
genuine gameness, seems this year
to be one OF the grittiest teams ever
sent forth by the institution. They
probably win find the red men too
stiff opposition to overcome, but
they can be relied upon to fight
back with all the strength that is in
them and to dispute the braves
claim TO every inch of ground.
Penn is opposing a team that in
many ways appears the strongest
in the country. 1t is too bad that
the Indians do not meet Yale, Har-
ward or Princeton. Without such q
game to play, they can not by any
means be rated the champions of
the country, no matter how badly
they may efface all other aggrega-
tons. In our humble mind, Carlisle
is a touchdown better than any of
the big three Harvard not except
ed. However. there is no way to
prove or disprove that y
This year. as in other years Of the
recent past, the football season is
concluding with succession Of
three games Of forefront rank on
adjacent Saturdays. The Princeton
Yale game today is the first, then
next Saturday the Yale Harvard
game at New Haven and q week
later the so-called post sea son tilt
Of the Army and Navy. Not for
getting. Of course, Penn and Cor

TIME year 1912 will go down in
the annals of boxing as a
most disastrous one to
champions and near champions In
the champion class Abe Attell was
the first to get into trouble and he
lost his crown to Johnny kilbane
after twenty rounds of milling in
which time the Cleveland streak
always had safe lead.
Attell has since proved by two or
three very Indifferent fights that he
has gone back past all hope of ever
figuring again in the championship
ranks. He was a wonderful pugil-
list in his day, and it will be years,

This was his own fault, however,
