Farmers in the vicinity of Milford
have awakened to the fact that the
land hereabouts is as desirable for
growing apples. as a few years ago
it was for producing the celebrated
Delaware peach. AS a result a large
number of prominent farmers who
heretofore have devoted their efforts
to producing grain. have made ar
rangements TO set large sections of
their farms in apples.
The last big shipments of holly and
evergreens for this season we're sent
from Milford Saturday. The ship
ments we're larger than we're expect
cd for the last days shipments. but
even at that did not equal those Of
last year. The evergreen dealers here
state that the season has been the
poorest in years.

SAYS NO ORDER AGAINST
SLEEPING ON CARS

General Manager Myers, of the VIII
mington and Southern Railway Com
pany. denies that he has issued an
o, dedr forhidding sleeping by passen-
gers on the cars operated between
Wilmington and New Castle by his
company. The statement made In
these columns recently about such an
order being issued was erroneous
While no formal order has been Is
sued it has been noticed for some time
that the crews arouse all who appear
to doze in the cars late at night. and
one of the conductors explained 70
a drowsy passenger who protested
that sleeping was against the rules.

ball players today closed their practice
for the season, and visited Yale Field
for the last time. Fifteen hundred under
graduates gathered on historic Yale rIeld
to give the team its parting ovation.
Following the scrimmaging the cheering
section got in its work, and, as the punt

off pieces of their old uniforms, bandages,
blankets, and other equipment and start
ed a fire on the field, dancing it and
singing the song. Finally a rousing cheer

|DEFINITE time SET
FOR GAME SATURDAY
Agreement Signed by Management Of
Maryland Aggies and Galladdet
Calls for 2:30 as Starting Time.
TO NAME OFFICIALS TODAY

Manager Patterson, of the Gallaudet
football team, stated last night that the
reports current in the papers of late
that M. A. c. and Gallaudet were hold
ing out as to the time OF starting the
game were entirely false and without
foundation. The managers Of both insti-
tutions long ago signed contracts calling
for the game to begin at 2:So, and each
intends to abide by these papers. This
means that the game Saturday will start
thirty minutes earlier than the contests
played at College Park this year.
Tnough the ofricials OF the game have
not as yet been definitely decided upon,
the managers have three men under con-
sideration, and it is very likely that
selections will be made tomorrow. The
men in question are Magof:in, referee;
Land, umpire, and Gargan, head lines
man.
Both Gallaudet and the Aggi& are
primed for the fray. The Kendall Green
ers have won five games and lost but one
this season. Washington and Lee being
the team that came out with the long
end of the score in the early part of the
season, when the Buff and Blue had gone
through but one and half weeks prac-
tice The record of the Farmers Is bril-
liant they having defeated every COM
peting eleven in Maryland, thus cap
turing the championship or that state.
The Buff and Blue hold their last
workout of the year this afternoon. and
il will be only a short signal drill. The
players Will spend tomorrow resting up
for the classic battle.
Coach Crafts has not picked out the
men who are to start the game, but 1t
is very certain that, with one or two
exceptions. the lineup Will be the same
as that which faced Wske Forest two
weeks ago.

TO LOSE KEEGAN.
Last Years Star Guard at c. U. Out
of the Game.

Last Years Star Guard at C. U. Out
of the Game.
1t was learned yesterday that Keegan,
last years star guard on the Columbia
University basketball team. would be
unable to play this year. Football has
brought back his old trouble with his
feet, and has made II impossible for him
to get into basketball games this year.
He may possibly get into the game late
in the season, but there is little hope
even for this. Last year Keegan was
troubled with fallen arches and was able
to play only about half the games, but
this year it was thought that he would
be all right and would be again seen in a
Columbia University uniform. His place
will be very hard to fill, as he was one
of the best guards Catholic University
had.
Practice is being held three times a
week at the Brookland court and the
team is coming along in grand style
Letters, Tracey, Duncan and Hinchcliff
are showing up well at the forward po-
sitions. while Lee, Trumbull, DonIelly
and Cartwright are fighting IL out for
the back positions. Cartwright, who
started out as a forward. has been
shifted to guard. and is showing up well.
He is filling Keegan's place.

ACCEPTS OFFER
Pennsylvania Ruler Practi-

National League.
THINKS MATTER SETTLED
Charles H. Ebbets ls Satisfied that
Every Detail Can Now Be
Arranged.

Harrisburg. Pa, Nov. ls.-John X.
Tener, Governor OF Pennsylvania, has
practically accepted the presidency Of the
National League. He admitted this fact
tonight before leaving with a committee
Of four National League magnates for
Philadelphia.
''only a few minor details are to be
arranged before 1 accept the position -
said his excellency.
II regard the matter as all settled"
supplemented Charles II. Ebbets.
The committee, which was composed OF
William F. Baker (spokesman), OF Phila-
delphia; Harry N. Hampstead. OF New
York: Charles II. Ebbets. of Brooklyn.
and II. Ackerland, with the proxy of
Charles w. Murphy. of Chicago, arrived
at Harrisburg shortly after l o'clock this
afternoon. After their prospective leader
had invited the magnstes to an automo-
bile ride and luncheon, the principals got
down to business. Mr.. Baker assured
Gov. Tener an unanimous election before
the principals began to talk terms.
The conference lasted about four hours.
At its conclusion no one would talk for
publication further than to say that
negotiations had progressed very favor
ably. A rumor that the Nationals were
ready to grant a five-year term at 81. 900
per could not be verified. 1t is believed
that the Governor and the committee
may arrange all details during the trip
to Philadelphia.
A rather significant hint was dropped
by the Governors secretary, Walter II.
Gathers, who said there was nothing to
prevent his chief from holding both the
Governorship and the league presidency.
This, combined with the fact that the
Governor declared he would neither re-
sign his present position nor give his un-
divided attention to the National League
II he should accept the presidency, would
indicate that the National League mag
mates wish him to assume ONCE imme-
diately after the term OF Thomas ].

Manager Murray, Of Hub City
Eleven, Wants Thanks
giving Game.
OTHER SPORT COMMENT
Maryland Aggies-Gallaudet Contest Is
Expected to Be Hard
Fought.
OTHER SPORT COMMENT
By c. w. SWAN.

Catholic University has been offered
a Thanksgiving Day game in Boston by
Manager Murray. of the Boston College
eleven. Manager Murray has already
opened negotiations with the Brookland-
ers. but at Catholic University nothing
definite will be said regarding the game.
The Boston College eleven expected to
play Fordham on Turkey Day, but the
Fordham aggregation refused the date al
the last minute. and as a result the Bos-
ton College team is without a game for
the big day in New England football.
Catholic University Is scheduled to meet
the Western Maryland team at West
minister on Saturday. II the game Is
arranged with the Massachusetts, team,
the contest with the Marylanders will
more than likely be Cancelled.
The game Saturday between the Mary
land Aggies at GaIlaudet, booked at Col
lege Park, Nd, should be the hardest
fought game of the season. The Bun
and Blue eleven remembers the contest
of last season, when the Aggies>>won in
the final seconds CT play. Many thought
the last quarter long. but this could not
be verified in any way.
1t is a safe bet that the Kendall Green
ers will battle to the last ditch to win
this struggle. A victory over the Farmers
will make this the best season in the
history of a Gailaudet football club, as
the team has played great football.
The game will start promptly at 2:0
o'clock.
Business and Western will hook up to-
morrow at Vigilant Park. and a victory
over the Red and White aggregation by
the Stenographers would make many at
the Dhode Island Avenue school happy.
The Western club, on the other hand.
will fight its hardest to win, as a victory
will give them a good chance to get a
Draw decision in the final outcome Tech
must beat Eastern TO win the champion
the Light Blue and White team can turn
the trick. Time will tell this.
Georgetown's battle with Holy Cross on
Thanksgiving Day is sure to be hard.
The Worcester Collegians are working
hard for this game, and will make a
brave attempt to land the contest.
As many of the members are from Wor-
cester and the vicinity, the game Is
sure to be hard fought A defeat at
the hands of the Holy Cross team would
make the members OF the GeorgetoWn
team who live in Worcester the laugh
ing stock Of the town for some little
time-so watch the fur fly.
The game Manager Oliveri OF the Wig
ilants, has booked for the champions on
Sunday should be a good one. A picked
team, which has been working together
for two weeks, should be able to give
the Vigilants a battle. And then. the
picked team will be the best players of
the reserve feet of thirty-two vessels.

HARVARD IS FAvoRIrE.
students willing to Back Crimson
Eleven Mt 10 to o.

Cambridge. Mass. Nov. 1s.-While ,Har-
ward men are willing to back their
eleven to the limit in the game with
Yale, they insist on being recognized as
human beings. A big batch of money
came up from New Haven today to be
covered by Harvard money at odds of 10
to s. but supporters of the Crimson re-
fused to do better than 10 to 9.
While the Yale-Harvard tickets carry
the holders names this season, a scheme
designed to prevent speculation. there
were plenty Of coveted pastboards to be
secured in Newspaper Row and on State
Street. The usual crowd of SPECTATORS
offered from SO for single seat to SO
for brace of choice seats.
1t is expected that the blacklist of
Harvard and Yale graduates will be in
creased as a result Of this years selling
scheme.

TRACK GAME BOOMING.
Catholic University to Have CracI
Cinder Path Team.


CInder Path Team.
A quarter mile cinder track is being
built at Catholic University. The track
Is to be eliptical in shape with a straight
away ~ feet long, and will be finished
within two or three weeks. Great things
are expected of Catholic University S
track team this year. as there is an
abundance of material on hand, and
Coach Weber has his men out every day
warming up. Several men are entered in
the cross-country meet which is to be
held in Baltimore Thanksgiving day,
under the auspices or the Baltimore
Cross Country Club.
La Rose and McEnerney, both of Holy
Cross track team, are attending Catholic
University this year. The latter was one
of Holy Cross best men last year, and
Catholic University is very lucky to have
such a man as McEnerney in the school.
This ought to be Catholic University's
banner year in track. and IL the track
team does not come through with a few
wins this year it will be a great disap-
pointment to the many track followers.
