iron efforts. With the Dartmouth
defeat touching their pride and with
Hart driving them to their best foot
ball in training, we can safely look
forward to a vast improvement in
the Tiger team.

Yale, in a way, is in about the
same boat as Princeton. The Ellis
have been stopped. They were not
beaten, 1t is true, but Washington
and Jefferson gave them all they
could do to prevent the humiliation.
Still and all, more surprise was occa-
stoned by the defeat of Princeton by
Dartmouth than in the fact that
Washington and Jefferson held Yale
to a no-score battle. Before, it was
conceded that the Bulldog would
likely have its own troubles, while
the Tigers were looked upon as
almost positive winners, but with a
hard game before them. Dartmouth,
in winning, didn't show any sur
prising strength and there Is no
telling what she would have done on
a dry field. Tho "sea of mud" grid
iron made a "boob" team out of
Princeton and that fact, of course,
made Dartmouth appear decidedly
strong. But to get back to Yale.
The Ellis do not seem to be worrying
over being stopped. and point to the
fact that they have three weeks be-
fore the Princeton game and four
weeks before the game with Har-
ward. BY that time, Yale expects to
be right at herself. She figures that
she will be very good for the Tigers
and perfect for Harvard, providing,
of course, injuries do not upset cal
culations.

Harvard is going along just as if
the world was always bright. The
Crimson team is surely displaying
fine form and the class, we know, is
there. She has been lucky in her
games, in that she hasn't had an op-
ponent capable of giving her a real
strenuous argument. Then, too, the
Crimson team is so good that maybe
she is making life easy for herself
as she goes through the seasons con-
flicts. Her game against Cornell next
Saturday should prove a pretty fair
test, and the following Saturday will
come the crucial game with Prince
ton. Harvard, though, is doing so
nicely that she hasn't the worries of
Princeton and Yale to contend with.
but she may be hit so hard when she
tackles the Tigers and the Bulldog
that the surprise may be her undoing.

Eastern athletes will not be repre-
scented on the team that will go to
Australia. Harold Holland, of this
city, was invited, but he will not go.
1t Is said that the natural expenses
were guaranteed, but there was moth

Two athletes from Newark and one
from Bloomfield carried off -honors
yesterday in the Dartmouth inter-
class meet. Joe Myer and Frank
Lagay were victors in two of the
running events and Wallace Maxfield,
of Bloomfield, captured the shot put
and discus and was second in the
hammer throw. These athletes have
been displaying great form for some
time and their performances with
with keen interest.

The employees of Tiffany & Co.,
the jewelers., are going to band to-
gether and form an athletic club.
Already one meeting has been held,
at which fifty of the men signified a
desire to form an organization in
which athletics and sociability would
predominant. The plan is an excel
lent one, and a committee is now at
work to bring about permanent Or
ganization. Rooms or a house for
club headquarters will be secured
and soon we are likely to hear of
some big doings by the Tiffany Ath-
letic Club.

Do moving picture firms accept sto-

tons, or can anyone write as long as

been found in Australia? G. G. S.
Yes, if they are suited to their re-
quirements. Yes, anyone can write
'em, but few can sell 'em, George.
Yes. That's long way to go for it,
though.

A friend of mine told me this and
said it was a joke. Is it? In your
opinion when does the laugh come
in? Here is the joke: A farmer buys
a farm about ten miles from the city,
and on it he finds a small pond con-
tanning frogs. One day while in the
city he went to one of the large hotels
and, seeing the manager, asked him
if he wouldn't like to buy some frogs.
If so, he (the farmer) could supply
him with a thousand frogs a week.
The hotel manager gave him the con-
tract for a thousand frogs each week
The following week the farmer
brought down a paper bag with eight
frogs in it. "Well," said the hotel
manager, where is the thousand
frogs?'' "I'll tell you, old man." SAID
the farmer, "by the noise they were
making at night ] really thought
had that many" STEETIN.
After reading this screamingly
funny Joke" we would say, first
Yes, it is a joke; second, when the
laugh comes in we will let you know
