The big football game of the day
is the one at Princeton with Dart
mouth as the Tigers opponents. It
will be the first real test of the sea-
son. and Princeton win have to show
her hand. The Tigers managed to
defeat Syracuse without tipping off
her strength, and they did it so
eleverly that the opinion is prevalent
that Princeton has a wonderful team.
That Dartmouth will give battle
there isn't doubt in the world. Still,
Princeton ought to beat her and not
show everything she has. No big
score may be looked for today. The
Tigers will likely do just as much as
the law compels them to do and save
their men and their cleverness for the
big games later

Yale, too, has a rather formidable
adversary in Washington and Jeffer
son. The Ellis have been complaining
that they haven't a good team this
season, but it is noticed that their
either Princeton or Harvard has
shown. Really, Yale seems to have
corralled one of her time teams
together and If so, woe unto those
who cross its path. Washington and
Jefferson displayed great strength
against Penn State, but Penn State
isn't a Bulldog by any means. The
old name of Yale alone has a certain
amount of fear attached to it, and
when she has a good football team
she is some football team to beat.
G
But for Penn States showing
against Washington and Jefferson,
the Harvard-Penn State game would
probably be the big show today.
AS a result, however, of Penn States
defeat by Washington and Jefferson
II to 0, Harvard is looked upon as
having a soft game.

AS the season goes on the stiff
games are becoming more numerous.
There are several contests on todays
card that should furnish some close
and severe football. Pennsylvania
and Carlisle and Cornell and Pitts
burgh should make it interesting for
one another.

A suggestion comes for a popularity
contest among the cyclists, but it
comes too late in the season. How
ever, the fair ones letter is herewith
printed:
j. p. N:
| have a plan which ! think will
make your column more popular and
which l know the bike fans and fam
nesses will look forward to with
much interest. My plan is to find out
who is the most popular bicycle rider.
There are to be voters--fans and fan
nesses-and they are to vote for the
rider they root for. Each voter is
allowed ten votes. A voter many vote
for only one rider; the ten votes are
to go to this particular rider, not five
for one and five for another. | would
greatly appreciate it. if you would
state in your column what you think
OF my suggestion. Yours in sport,
FL. SAME BIKE FANNESS.
=. S-Will you kindly let me know
if Moran is going to team. with
Hump" Cavanagh, or "Eaglebeak'
Grenda, in the New York six-day
race.
Your idea is a good one, but as
stated above such a contest would
have to be begun earlier in the sea-
son. Your "P. s." is rather airy,
fairy, don't you think so. Neverthe-
less, we will oblige you by saying
that Messrs. Moran and Grenda will
be partners in the New York race.

The following letter comes under
the head of gems" in literature:
j. 2. NJ:
Il dislike to write this distressing
letter, for fear that it will annoy you,
but the time has come when / must
seek the judgment of one of my dear
friends, and 1 consider you as such.
The contemplation of this letter has
caused me many nights of restless
ness and corresponding days of
anxiety.
You will understand my reluctance
in writing you in regard to this mat
ter when l fully explain the distress
ing situation that it has placed me
in. Happy homes, yes, human lives
have been upset by troubles of a
similar nature. In all sincerity the
manner in which you answer this let
ter may mean a matter of serious
consequence to one of your esteemed
friends.
| know that l am asking a great
deal of you, but to whom better could
I go than to you to assist me in al
leviating this distressed feeling, and
which one of my friends would / be
more warranted in asking to decide
this question than you.
My friend, L ask that you tell me
from the fullness of your heart:
Do you think the Little Insurance
Pest" will ever be a good baseball
manager? Yours in distress,
HARRY BELSKY.

What clerical positions in a railroad
office can a young fellow with a
three years high school education
apply for, and how do you make ap.
plication? Will my penmanship be
any hindrance? B. A. T.
There are a number of clerical po
sitions you could apply for. Write
to the general offices of the railroads
or apply in person for an application
blank. Your penmanship is good, anC
should be a great point in your favor
