BOMEISLER IS
 BACK PLAYING END
 FOR YALE ELEVEN

There was much joy out at Yale f7eld yesterday when Douglas Bomeis- Ter. AIl-American right end of last vsar. got into the scrimmage for the first time since the Holy Cross game, was reopened and he had to be taken out or the game. Whether Bomeisler would play any more football, as much-mooted question, and when he went into the scrimmage yesterday the whole team seemed to take a sud- den brace. Everyone has ansolute confidence in Bcrneislef, both in the sqrzad and among the followers of the Yale game, and the poor sn0W1ng against Brown last Saturday imms- diately vanished to the dim past with his return to the eleven
 When he went in yesterday after noon he played with all his old shape and finish. and showed that he could take a forward pass without trouble. He rollicked down the field, that Is the only word to use for it. Bomeisler was used in both the signal drill and sity men who were used in the signal drill did not scrimmage because of the hard knocks they received in Lefty Flynn, the fuIlback. Pum- belly played in his place. and Phil bins who started the scrimnage, was bore the brunt of the Brown attack, stayed in only through the signals. and Marrying took his place at center soon after the scrimmage was called. eGa1lauer was moved over to Bunny Warren's place at tackle Whether this shift will be permanent was not stated, though 1t is not probab1e-In 1911 Ga1lauer played rattling good game at tackle. But at the beginning of the present season he was moved back to end. where he started last season. Ganauer is a better tackle than. he is an end this year. He seems-to lack his old-time ability to get down uIi- der punts-
 In yesterdays practice Nate Wheeler remained at quarterback for about half of the 50-miIiute ScriIn- mage, and was then replaced by Tommy Cornell

ONE TICKET FOR
 YALE GRADUATES
SINGLE APPLICATIONS FOB FIAR- YARD GAME WILL BE FILLED
 NEXT WEEK.

Every Yale graduate who applied Tor one ticket for the YaIe-Harvard game. November g. has been accommodated. and will later receive his ticket.
 The Yale ticket department 1s now working day and night arranging mat ters so that the drawing for names of those who applied for two tickets and cannot be accommodated, win take place in day or two. These per sons will be notified Friday that they cannot secure tickets, thus givfne them weeks notice
 Already between $1e,OOO and s1s.o00 received for late applications of tlcIels has been returned to applicants. and probably S10,OOO more will be refurue5 within the week
 Only one-ha1f Of those who applied for tickets will receive them
 The ruling was made this year tf7af graduates could have only one ticket Those who applied for two did SO with the understanding that they might or might not get them-
 The names drawn out will be of the pensons who will not get tickets For the first time in the history of the Yale-Harvard games, Harvard talzes it's full allotment of seate, One-half the capacity of the stands or 16.50c seats. and the scarcity Of tickets for the, big game becomes therby greatly
 The rule was established this year that freshmen at the university shoul& receive but one ticket, where they had heretofore received two.E The sop1o- mores are allowed two. and the Gen iors and juniors three. instead of the customary two. This extra ticket it figured, would accommodate the chaperone, and belonged aS a. right to the classes which supplied the ma ority of the team members.
 Last year a small number who could not use the one ticket allowed them. at almost the last minute, sent it baesr and the lucky ones who happened 10 have their applications in, procured the tickets left. It seems quite evident t1lr year, that none will be returned No person, not q Yale graduate, has e.n assurance thus far of even Securing one ticket
 Although the Harvard tickets have been allotted none have been sent out as yet and Yale tickets will probably be sent out the first of next week

CINCINNATI HAS FINE
 MATERIAL FOR NEXT YEAR

It rather appears as if Garry Herr mann would have a wonderful amount of talent in his club next season. When the Cincinnati boss decided that he could. no longer entrust the destinies of his team to Henry O'Day, the re- formed umpire, he cast about. for a new leader. Joseph Tinker was the man he wanted, but Murphy demand- ed the crown jewels of Russia and the Brooklyn Bridge for his shortstop's re- lease. Then Hermann put in claims for Chance and Bresnahan, making up his mind that either one of them would be a capable manager and ac- ceptable to the Redland fans.
 Murphy apparently became alarmed at the idea that Chance might win a pennant for Cfncinnatti while his own team was very likely to trail along in the second division. It really would not look we'll from a Chicago stand point Therefore the king of altb1ers came to the conclusion that Tinker really was not worth quite as much as he had previously valued him at and sent word to Hermann that a deal might be made on much more reason able terms.
 The result is that the president of the Reds may find that he is possessed of an embarrassment Of riches. If he takes Tinker as his manager, as he says he will. he will have little use for Chance except as an advisory coach. and he could not afford to pay the Peerless Leader the salary he would

In this deal Dreyfuss will negotiate direct with BreSnahan. He could easily afford to give Bresnahan a. $10,- 900 bonus and a big salary to join the Pirates If Roger were instrumental be repaid tenfoId. The Worlds Series Jackpot these days nets a. small for tune.
 Another red hot tip is that Bres- nahan has taken his case to the Ma tional League. When the annual meet ing is held in December, Bresnahan will present his claim. If it is not satisfactorily adjusted, he will appeal to the National Comm ission. Should he not get satisfaction there he will rush into the courts. In the mean time there's job waiting for him in Pittsburg, where he will return to the rank and file.
 Johnny Kiing, the peer of all catch CTS a few years ago, and manager of the Boston Braves last season, may be a member of the 1913 Cardinals. This is the joy news that confronts the St. Louis National League rooters, and if the deal is put through it will partly make amends for the absence of Breanahan.
 While negotiations for the acquisi- ton of the famous catcher have not been completed, it is known that Mrs. Helene Hathaway Britton, learning that Klingh is ready for bids, announced that she would pay any price to get Kfng for the Cardinals.

CRIMSON FEARS
 HUSKY YALE TEAM
COACHES DRILL PLAYERS IN FORMATIONS USED AT NEW
 HAVEN.

Cambridge. Mass. Nov. 13-The new formation Harvard is working on for it's final two contests got thorough trying out yesterday afternoon, when teams A and B engaged the seconds In a~1eagthy warfare. during which fhe u1otto was sGo Easy. Team A managed to make the sole score of the day on a field goal Needless to men tion Erickley turned the trick, and from his twenty-five yard line.
 Trumbull,s who has been out since the Princeton game, returned to his place at right guard, but found the going rather strenuous, so Driscoll went in after a. few rushes- Captain Wendell took no chances of reinJurtng his ankle. and after five minutes or so left the game, BradIee substituting. Dana relieved OBrien at right end at the halfway mark Fred Withing- ton, whose brothers, Paul and Loth- rop. are varsity coaches. has injured his knee and took a rest yester- day.
 The Crimson coaches, especially Coach Haughton, who witnessed the Yale-Brown contest, have whole some respect for the New Haven team. One of the varsity trainers thinks that the Blue will defeat it. self in having failed to try and develop a good drop-kicker. The margin of points that Harvard will have over Yale in case of a Crimson victory will be represented by the number Brick leys6 foot turns in.

PITTSBURGH READY TO PAY

Report That St. Louis Cardinals Will Secure
 Catcher Johnny King

St. Louis. Nov. 13-Be1ieving that The acquisition of Roger Bresna1lan would be a. big help to the Pirates in the pennant race next season. Barney Dreyfues Is prepared to make Roger the most nattering offer any catcher ever had in the history of baseball. That's the news brought back from PfttSburg by a man who is in close touch with the baseball wrangle which involves Bresnahan, Mrs. Britton and the St Louis club.
 sDreyfuss Is eager to sign Bresna- ham said this man. 'eThe Pittsburg fans, too, would like to see the Duke behind the bat at Forbes Field, and unless miss my guess that's where Bresnahan will appear next Aprl.
 tsThe sentiment iH Pittsburg Is that with Bresnahan on. the job the Pirates next season would bag the bunting in a rcmp The followers of Fred Cfarke's team believe that the National League race will be a two-club affair in 1913. New York and Pittsburg VIII be the potent contenders. and if Bres- nahan is on the job as helo captain in C7arke's absence, they figure tne Corsairs will win sure.

LEFTY FLYNN IS
 FROM ST. PAUL,S
GREAT YALE RUNNER WAS SCHOOIAdATE OF BAKER OF
 PRINCETON.

The New York Press has some in- teresting facts about Lefty Flynn the Yale football player. Newspapers incorrectly said Flynn lived in The Bronx and was a graduate of Pawline School. The Press makes the follow ing correction:
 Maurice B. Flynn, otherwise known as Lefty Flynn, is the son of Joseph A. Flynn, vice president of the Fidel- ity and Deposit Company of Maryland. and the nephew of the late Maurice B. Flynn, who many years ago was prominent in the political and social life of this city.
 'tAlso Lefty F1ynn's home is at No. 25 West Fifty-seventh street, and not in The Bronx, as is generally stated.
 Lefty Flynn is an aIumnus of St PauPs School, Concord, N. H., and it was there( and not at Pawlinge that he learned his football, playing for three years with the redoubtable 'Hobey' Baker of Princeton

 As for Chance it begins to look as if ne might get an opportunity to go to the, American League, where he would be welcomed with open arms If Mur- phy attempted to send his former manager to the minors it would ap- pear almost certain that the Nation al Commission would declare him a Tree agent.

1'NOIsY JOHN'' KLING,
 ONCE STAR CATCHER, BORN g YEARS AGO

Since the early days of the profess sionaI game Kansas City has been noted as live baseball town, and one could almost make an a1l-star nine of the great players who have commenced their diamond careers in the big town at the mouth of the Kaw. Joe Wood is a Kansas City boy, and that munich pality was also the birthplace, thirty seven years ago today, of John G. kling, once star catcher of the Chi when he began playing ball with the fast sem1-professional Sohm1zer club of Kansas City. After three seasons given 3. try-out by the St. Louis Cardi- nals, but failed to make good, and
 was turned over to Rockford, III, The
 following year found him back in his
 native city, playing with a. serni-pro- fessional team. In 1899 he turned up as pitcher on the Houston club of
 name of John Kline. Returning to
 Missouri. in 1ec0 he found his real forte
 as a catcher on the St. Joseph's club of the Western league. He played in
 108 games for St. Joe, made a sensa-
 tional record behind the plate, and
 batted over the 300 mark. The Chi was given another chance in big league circles. This time he showed he had mained with the Windy City aggrega-
 ton. His best year was 1906, when
 he batted for an average of .31. In
 1909 Kling was offered the dubious
 berth of manager of the Cincinnati
 Reds. Realizing that his playing days
 were nearly over, Kling was anxious to accept the proposition, but Murphy refused to give him his release The big catcher then became a holdout
 During the 1909 season he managed to pick up little money with Jimmy Callahan's Lagan Squares of Chicago and 0 semi-professiona1 Kansas City team. In 1910 he was reinstated in
 the favor of the Cubs owner on the payment of $700, and again donned the Chicago uniform Last year he was traded to the Boston Nationals. At
 his best Kling was the premiere back stop of the major circuits. He figured in the winning of four pennants for Chicago.

HsRVARD CAPTAIN GIVES
 FOOTBALL TO BRICKLEY
Graceful Act By Wendell to Man
 Who Defeated Princeton.

Cambridge, Nov. 13-A tribute never before paid by Harvard football captain was that paid by Capt. Percy Wendell, of this years Crimson var sity eleven to Charles B. Brickiey, the hedo of the drop kick and field goal. Wendell gave to Brickley the football which was used in the Princeton game and which was won by Harvard in it's victory over the Orange and Black.
 It is cusfornuary for the captain of a losing team to surrender the ball which has been played in a game to the captain of the winning side at the completion of the contest, and Pen dleton leader of the Princeton team, gave the ball to Wendell as soon as the final whistle on the 16 to 6 game blew.
 Wendell played only about five min Ites in the Princeton game, his weak ankle making it advisable for him to withdraw to the sidelines before a more serious injury befell him.

It is said that Ray Heating, the local boy who is now mended Moshier to Manager Pfeper of Lawrence Moshier has played first base on local teams and has also gone behind the bat.
