troubles with WASHINGTON and Jeffar
SON were perhaps even worse than
what happened to Princeton, yet the
fact that she saved her skin from a
defeat makes 1t appear that her foot
ball prowess is more durable.

Harvard is about the best propo-
sition In years, taking form as a
method of Judgment. Her prospects
are so bright that she should be at
least a 2 to favorite against Prince
ton and 10 to favorite against Yale.
That these odds will be offered,
though, isn't likely, for the Crimson
admirers are not much for betting.
AS to Yale and Princeton, you can
always get o bet out of them. When
they apparently haven't a chance
they will just bluff themselves into
the belief that they are very much
in tho swim. The students OF both
these colleges will bet against Har-
ward and they will lose their dough
and then "Rahl Rah!" for the team
any way. That is the college spirit
in sports.
When Yale and Princeton meet, the
betting viii DO on the side of the
Ellis, providing, Of course, the Tigers
do not show some startling form in
the game against Harvard, In which
event the Yale-Princeton game would
be looked upon as the big game and
the best betting game of the season.
For that reason and for the Jersey
pride reason, we would like to see
Princeton triumph over Harvard and
then we would go on to New Haven
in high spirits for a crack at Yale
The Bulldog and the Tiger are al
ways great match and, according
to form, they will be better match
than ever this year

The same correspondent who scored
so heavily in that fencing contro-
versy is back on the job in defense
of the Italian bike fans and the
Italian rider, Verri. Let us continue
TO be enlightened:
]. r. N:
Interested by all means in the con-
troversy between q Mr.. Cetrulo and
a Mr. Troxler and ready to argue at
any time we have also been following
with special attention and pleasure
fe da doi1 I.xr
a few good, intelligent correspondents
in the columns of sport Topics"
Special praise goes to Same Bike
Fanness" who is so intelligent in her
weekly correspondence. "a New Fan
ness who, without doubt, is Jealous,
enters with a letter tg j. p. n. We
think she Is not saying the whole
t ith in her consideration of the
Italian sportsmen and the Italian
rider, Francisco Verri, and we would
like to say a few words on the sub
ject to United States Fanness." We
were present at the match race be-
tween Joe Fogler and Nerri and we
say that all the fans were as one per-
son in talking to each other in terms
which have so impressed our new con-
tributor to Sport Topics" But, to be
fair, not only the Italians were crying
loud in favor of their champion, but
people of other nationalities were
helping their fayorite with cries that
could be heard all over the track. 1t
seems to me Foglers admirers started
the noise with the cries: "Show the
Wop the way, Joe, show the Mac
carone the way" Why not be i'm
partial and honest, Miss United
States Fanness? AS for Verri's abil-
ity AZ rider we refer United States
Fanness" to what j. P. N, so fair a
Judge, had to say at the time. If
United States F'anness' will kindly
stop at the library (situated at Broad
and Washington streets, facing
Bridge street, and look over one of
the Morning Stars of that time she
will be surprised at the impression
Verri made when riding alone on the
track. He made one-eighth of a mile
in IL 3-5 seconds. Fogler, who GER
tainly knows what he is talking
about, said: ''In the condition Verri
is at the present time he can beat
anybody on this track" What about
the match race with Jackie Clark?
Didn't Clark have to rough ride, as
usual, in order to win? We will GER
tainly be glad to see Verri ride again
at the Velodrome next year and with
him Moretti and we are sure the fans
and Harnesses will then see some class
of riding. We are sure of interple ct
ing the sentiments of all good, intelli-
gent fans and Harnesses in saying in
defense of the Italians and the italian
rider, Verri, that Verri deserves the
name of n good, fair rider and never
tried to switch anybody while on the
local track. This for the truth, moth
ing else but the truth.
S. o. & co.
There was much rivalry between
the fans on the occasion of the Verri-
Fogler match, but most of it was in
good-natured spirit. Verri proved
himself an excellent rider and his
work has earned him place in the
New York six-day race. For the well
fare of the community keep an eye on
those persons whose tastes run to
fencing. Suspicious!
