Avenue detail Of regular police are
selected for their fine appearance and
aseidiously cultivate majesty and,

eeeded by boastful announcements
that an Apollo-like standard would
be set The promoters of the special
service detail neglected the Formally
of securing the approval of the Po-
lice Commissioner and left a teehni-
cal opening for the opposition of the
regulars This led to curious
game of tag up and down Fifth Ave-
{1se under official sanction. One
regular cop, was assigned to each
special and directed to remain con-
sstantly within ten PAGES. A part of
the specials duty lay in ASSISTING

PREPARATION OVER.
Yale and Harvard Eievens Fit for
 Great Struggle on Saturday.

Cambridge. Mass, Nov. 20-The Harvard football teams preparation for the annual game with Yale, to be played at New Haven Saturday, was practically completed today. After a secret session of varied practice, in which the coaches gave a. little atten- ton to nearly everything in football from fundamentals to the advanced strategy by which they hope to bring the Crimson to victory, the squad was given a demonstrative reception by the student body. Coaches, captain. man. ager, varsity eleven, second team and scrubs all were cheered loud and long. Then the students went into a practice session themselves, roundir~ out the songs and cheers with which they will greet their team at New Haven.
 The varsity squad started today's practice by tackling the dummies. Then the linemen were taken aside for special coaching while the ends chased up and down the gridiron under the soaring punts which Felton and Hard wick exchanged. Without rest, the first and second teams lined up against each other in scrinnage, the second team running through the known Yale plays without making appreciable headWay, while the varsity uncovered it's full repertoire of offensive strategy planned for the Yale game.
 This was the squads last practice in Cambridge Backfleld men, ends and centers packed their kits tonight and will leave tomorrow morning for New Haven. There they wifi run through a light drill on ths Yale gridiron fin or der to accustom themselves to the
