Princeton Is a DesOlate Place
When Tigers Face Bulldog

PRINCETON, Nov. 15.--The Prince
ton team left here at 1915 yesterday
morning for Greenwich, where they
spent the night before going on to
New Haven. Three hundred under
graduates We're at the station to see
them off. For fifteen minutes they
sang and cheered. There was Il
Princeton Locomotive" for every
man on the team and "a double cheer
for Captain HOBBY Baker. Just before
the train started the cheer leaders be-
gan the singing of "Old Nassau" and
those on the train joined those out
side in wavingg hats and coats To
the refrain.
About 1900 students are leaving to-
day to crowd the cheering section at
Yale Field. Princeton is practically
deserted The even money on the
game, which has been snapped up
wherever 1t appeared, is no longer
. in evidence, and an ultimatum from
Vale is to the effect that 10 to on
Princeton are the prevailing odds
Most of the Princeton money already
is placed at even money, however.
The coaches before leaving today,
were unanimous In their refusal to
predict a victory. They remembered
that Yale is always 20 per cent. bet
ter when she plays Princeton than at
any other time and are not overcon
fident. 1.-THE game will be n hard one
and Princeton ought to win is the
most they will say.
About 100 men are being taken up
with the Tiger squad, including play
ers, scrubs, coaches, managers, train
ers, rubbers and cheer leaders.

Yale Seniors Have Never Seen
Team Win Big Game at Home


NEW HAVEN, Nov. 15.--In a heavy
rain the Yale football squad had its
final practise. There was no scrim-
maging. but a surprisingly stiff prac-
tise breaking through, with the war;
sity forming "a defense To the Prince
ton formations.
Following the work at breaking
through there was a long kicking
drill, Pendleton and Ketcham doing
some good placement kicking, while
Ainsworth, Guernsey and Knowles did
different pointers from the array Of
coaches that were at the field.
Following the kicking practise most
of the men went 10 the infirmary for
the night. They will have an early
luncheon at the usual eating place In
Chapel street, and after the game will
have dinner at the Quinnipiac Club.
over 1000 undergraduates in tho
pouring rain marched to the field and
cheered the team. They were enthu-
slastic and remained throughout tho
practise.
While Yale does not underestimate
the strength of Princeton since the
game played against Harvard last
Saturday, nevertheless certain feel
ing of confidence prevails in New
Haven because of the good work done
by Yale against Brown after the Col
gate defeat and because of the mani
fest Improvement in the teams show
ing this week. The Improvement oil
Wilson at quarterback and the return
OF Pendleton and Brann to the right
guard and end positions are respon-
sible for this.
The present Yale seniors never have
seen Yale win a big game here II
their college course. Three years age
Captain Days team made It's greai
record holding Harvard. The follow
ing year Sammy White spoiled Arthur
Howes record. and last year came TN

M'G|LL READY TO
BUY NEWARK STOCK
Western Lacquer ReOpens Me-
gOtiatiOns-Wants Control
ling Interest, Only.
TALK OF SELLING NORTHERN

Reports coming from a reliable
source today State that William NC
Gill, a Western League magnate, IN
terested in the Denver Club, has re-
opened negotiations with Charles II
Ebbets and Is anxious to purchase a
controlling interest in the Newark
Club. McGil, with Jack Hendricks,
visited the East in September ana
had a conference with Charles Ebbets
at Brooklyn. He also discussed the
purchase of the Providence Club and
had several interviews with President
Edward G. Borrow, of the Inter-
national League, with view of in
vesting money in some international
League club at the time.
Subsequently McGill and Hendricks
went West again, and a report from
Indianapolis had it that they had pur-
chased that club for 100000. The deal
fell through. and it was not until this
week that McGill bobbed up again, at
Columbus, where the minor league
meeting took place.
McGill does not want to buy the
entire holdings of the Ebbets- Nc
Keever Medicus Solomon combine.
and wants only a controlling interest
in the local club. The above combir
nation controls 352 of the 400 shares,
of the Newark Clubs stock. Mr..
Ebbets will lay McGill's proposition
before the Newark stockholders at
their annual meeting here Monday
night.
Conflicting stories have been stirred
up anent the future manager of the
Jersey City Club. One report has it
that Rudy Hulswitt is slated for the
job, but it is also whispered about
that Maty Mcintyre ex-Detroiter and
present Providence gardener. may be
the man.
The Newark Club has practically
confirmed the report that deals are
being discussed whereby Higgins and
Northen will be traded or sold out
right. There was much surprise here
today when 1t was learned that the
Brooklyn Club had sold Bob Fisher
to Toronto. Fisher, it was announced
last week, would likely become
Tiger, when it leaked out that
waivers had been obtained on the
Nashville boy Hub Northen is not
needed by the local club, Manager
Smith believing that Witterstaetter
VIII develop into a good gardener.
According to Vice President James
j. Lillis, of the Jersey City Club, the
plan for the International and Amer
lean Association teams to clash in an
lnterleague series aroused a lot of
favorable comment at Columbus The
most popular plan discussed was to
nave each of the International League
teams play two series with every
other International League club, in
stead of three sets. About August |
the American Association teams
would visit the International League
circuit, playing three games in each
town, and the International. League
teams would reciproeate with three
contests in each of the Western
towns
The Jersey Citv Club disposed OF
three players at Columbus. AL Shaw
and Pinch McCabe were sold to Nash
vile, Doescher went to Atlanta. in
part payment for Joe Agler. Jersey
City purchased Outflelder Cooper
from Baltimore and Pitcher Calm
from the Michigan State League.

was decidedly optimistic before the

students showed their spirit yester-

A bad name is not an easy name
to get rid Of. and Kilbane has bad
name. Whether he deserves it or not
is q question. To ME his performances
have always been acceptable. He Is
clever with his hands, nifty on his
feet. his ring generalship is good, and
he seems TO have a stiff punch In
stock. He had knockouts to his
credit before he became the cham
pion. but afterward he appeared to
be content with outpointing his oppo-
nents. This he has done, though, to
the queens taste. Now that he has
again displayed his punch we may ex-
pect more work OF that nature from
him. He is in bad repute in New
York. but If he will go there and
show tho sports q knockout or two,
or a good tough fight like Willie
Richie gave them. he will get in
good again. That is what Kilbane
should do. and is no doubt able to do,
but the champion is so Disguised with
! New York. and SO sore on New York.
