AUTOS AT PREMIUM
 DURING BIG GAME
Bridgeport Cars Are Hired By New Haven Lfveries For
 Service to Bowl"

It will be extremely difficult to hire an automobile in this city next satur- day for most of the garages where cars are kept for hire have orders enough for every car available to take parties to the YaIe-HaEvard footbad game at New Haven. Several gar ages in this city where what Is known as livery cars are kept have rented cars and drivers to a New Haven firm who will employ them to take parties from the New Haven railroad station to the new Yale ''bowl'' in the town of Orange. All day yesterday auto mobiles. were noted passing through here on the way to the YaIe-P Princeton game at Princeton.
 Indications are that hotel acconlnlo.s dations will be at a premium in this city Saturday. Every room in the Stratf1eld hotel has been reserved. Al the hotel it was said today that be- cause of the extra seating space which the new Yale stbow1s afford that many people who have not attended the football game tor years had tele- graphed or written the hotel for res ervations. Most Nf these will be auto parties who will stop for luncheon passing through on Saturday and re- turn in the evening for dinner and to pass the night. Other hotels in the ctty also reported an unusual nun ber for Saturday night.

PALMER PRESENTS NEW STADIUM TO
 PRINCETON BOYS

Princeton. N. IT, Nov. 17Prince- toms new football stadium was for ma1Iy presented to the university yes terday afternoon by it's donor, Edgar A Palmer of the class Of 1903. MT. Palmer made a short speech. to which Dean McClenahan responded for the university. The entire undergraduate body naarchd to the new concrete structure, which was the scene Of it's first big game with Yale today. The students cheered MT. Palmer, prac- hced 'thlsfr songs. and concluded with a. long series of cheers for the team.
 The Yale players had possession of the stadium early in the afternoon, Frank H1nkey sending his squad through a signal drill and bunting practice. A high wind made the catching Of kicks most uncertain, and unless the gale atba.fes by today the backs will have a hard time handling their opponenI's punts. The Yale cam finished its workout by 4 O'Clock and returned to New Brunswick. where the Ellis have their temporary training quarters.

CARDINALS WIN
 FROM PARK STREET

The Cardinal basketball team of the St. PaaI's Episcopal church defeat ed the Park street church team last night in the parish house on Beach street by 25-24. The game through out was extremely interesting and it was only in the last two minutes of play that the winning basket was shot. Ed. Flint and Sherman Windsor were brought into the linelight by the wonderful shots from the floor and also their lightning passes. Chick Mercer was taken out of the game at the end of the first half and Pussy Brill was used in his stead. The only accident was a sprained ankle which was sustained by Raymond Anthony of the Park street church team in the latter part of the last half. The boy was pIucky, however, and con- tinued playing after the ankle had been bandaged.
 The Ohvets and the Barnum Inde- pendents also played a game which was very much one sided, the score being 23-14 in favor of the OHvets. The Olivets have to be given credit for their team work and for their sci- entific playing.
 There will be no game next week because of the fact that the Sigma Iota Phi club are to give a minstrel ahg#x

TRY TO 60
 IN FREIGHT CARS TO GAME

New York, Nov 14-Quie the most remarkable stunt yet undertaken by college students to attend 8, football game was nipped in the buy by heart less railroad authorities who had at first apparently fallen in with the plan of the boys Four hundred, students of the Michigan Agricultural College arranged with a hustling freight agent of Michigan road to ship them in box cars from East Lansing, Mich, where the college is located. to State College, Penn, the town where the Penn State College Is located.
 Teams of the two colleges played football yesterday and the Michigan lads wanted to see it. Cash was short cefved the plan to have the student body shipped in freight cars as live stock of perisha'b1e freight, from Lan- sing to the Pennsylvania town and re- turn at a cost of between $4 and $5 a head, the boys to provide. their own feed and water and to travel on fast freEght schedule. Of course there was a protest by college officials and par ents of the adventurous boys. as the trip would have taken about week As the boys had no written contract with the freight agent with whom they made the arrangement. they could not force the railroad company to carry out its promise, put the com pany easily found g. way out Of it's agreement On the preteW that be. cause Of the quarantining orders ts- sued by various State Commissioners of Agriculture against the shipment out of the State of Michigan of any Hive stock" owing to the prevalence of the foot and mouth disease, they contended that regulations might pe enforced against half a dozen box cars filled with such very Tive stock as undergraduates of an agricultural col 1ege, which might lead to the quarS antining of the students at their ex- pense. So they cancelled the agree meEt actually entered into by their agent.

BIG CROWD EXPECTED
 AT YOST FIELD CAME

It is expected that football fans will invade Yost field in large hum bers tomorrow to see the Torrington eleven tackle the Remington-Yo ' osts= Torrington claimed the state title last year until downed by the YostS Hazel of SpringeId Training school is advertised to play with the YOsts.
 This game will start at 2:S0 D. m and will not be preceded by any pre- hrninary game. The Torringtons are the fa1gorites in the betting at pres ent. principally on the showing made against the West Pointers. The team seems to have taken a decided brace since Baker took up the quarterback position. Cunningham has done well at left half and fills Nfoshier's place especially in helping his other half back. SeeIey up to the time Gun ningham came, had no one to help him get under way for long runs. The management expects to bring the Bradhurst field club back on Nov. 22 and is negotiating with Yale of ncials to bring Yale second team heTe on Than S4lsEEtEtns e 6sE crr.

TANK SCOUT
 TALKS WITH
 EDDIE PLANK

A dispatch from the wilds of Get tvsburg states that Arthur Irwin. scout of the Yankees, and veteran of many cruel wars. was in the battle field town with g commission from Frank Farrell to enlist the venerable Eddie Plank, one of the survivors of inc battle, for the cause Of the Yan- kees.
 The Gettysburg dispatch says Irwin was in conference with PlanE all day, but so far he has not yet signed the papers. It is known that Plank is the Athletic star who captured Connie Mack,s nanny by dickering with the Feds. However, the presence of IT. win in Gettysburg means that Connie Mack has given Farrell carte blanche to dicker with Plank. This means that the veteran left-hander will probably come to the Yankees.

Coach Bob Fo1we1 of the Washing ton & Jefferson football team says
 Yale and Harvard are evenly match ed. His team played them both so he ought to be good judge. Folwell says Harvard is an older team, more familiar with the work, well. drilled and well trained. Yale is a newer team with a more advanced game.
 Folwen declares Harvard put up a stronger defense against his team powerful offence. Against Harvard, W. 6 J. was weakened by the loss of two of its best men while the full

 President Gilmore of the Federal

 peace but are unwilling to give up
 everything. Gilmore would probably like to see another year of war be-
 cause he could pull down a fat salary

made fin 1890, when Prdnceton was crushed 32 to O. The Tigers biggest score was made In 1896, when Yale fell before the Orange and Black by a the entire series of thirty-nine games since 1873, therefore. shows that Yale has won twenty games: Princeton ten, aud nine have resulted in ties.
 The startling announcement that Connie Mack had asked waivers on the Philadelphia Athletics trio of pitchers Bender. Plank and Coonbs, furnished sensational climax to a sensational baseball season. Many ex- planatians, aside from the rather vague one put forward fby Mack, have been offered but the only reasonable certainty is that Mack as we'll as the magnates of the American League knew full well that Bender and Plank major league. Coombs, because of his long illness, is considered g. neg 1tgtble quantity. Plank has a grand pitching average of .64e and a worlds series average of 200 since Joining the Athletics. Bender has 8 better record his league pitching average for 12 years being $50, and his Worlds series average .534. Notwfth- standing their age, from a baseball standpoirft. it is likely that both will be placed with other American League clubs during the shifts and readjust- ments sure to take place this winter.
 In connection with the Announce ment of the date of the next annual meeting of the National Collegiate Athletic association, to be held at Chi Issued a statement regarding the right and wrong views of athletic sport In part 1t is as follows:
 Athletic sport, if honorably and wisely conducted, can hold its own in any institution of 1earndng: but to gain 8 position of dignity, it must be saved from many of it's friends, and reasonable nna4 can question it's value. Rightly administered, 1t strengthens the weak, improves the weak placed in the strong, clears the brain, teach es boys and young men to respect their bodies and to know the relation of a clean, vigorous body to an active mind and an honorable life. Rightly conducted it is a school of manly skill. courage, honesty. se1f-controI, and even of courtesy; wrongly con- ducted, it is school of bad manners, vulgarity. trick evasion, brutality the ideas not of a sportsman but of a sporting man.
 We are constantly told that in England men play for the sake of playing. whereas in America men play for the sake Of winning. The more series the question of winning, the more serious the need of winning hon. orab4y. Sport in America is not mere fun; it is a. test of character, and nothing that makes the player less a gentleman belongs to it. The foot ball player who wantonly tnjures his rivals, the Baseball player who persists in shouting to rattle his opponents, the schooIboy or student who takes money for summer baseball and coiceals the fact, should be put out of the team. Nor should any school or any college have secrets as to the legitimacy o4 its athletic representatives"
