Newark Academy. Wittpenn will be
recalled as NO. 20 by those who
were there, and his dashing play viii
always be remembered Howard p.
Talman, who was No. 16, was also in
the thick of the fray, and his per-
Torrance was a most creditable one.
1t was Wittpenn and Talman who
did the bulk of the hard work and to
them must so the lions share of the
credit
In numbering the players, Rutgers
made the game more interesting. to
the spectators and this method should
be observed by all the college teams
Tufts did not number her players
and there was less interest in what
her men were doing. The number
of players doesn't hurt the teams
chances In any way, and soon every
college team in the country will be
wearing numerals
Princeton opened her new Palmer
Stadium Saturday and her students
went wild over her victory over
Dartmouth In the mud last year
Dartmouth defeated Princeton to 0,
but the Tigers came back this year
and won Is to Ia. The victory wasn't
as decisive as it might have been,
but Dartmouth, it must be remem-
bered, is a very formidable eleven.
Besides. with a pretty fair lead, the
Tigers let up bit, and Dartmouth.
working hard every minute of the
game, finally cut down the lead of
their opponents to four points. The
new stadium is wonderful affair,
but II was rather barren on Satur-
day with only about 10000 persons
present. 1t will hold, it is said, in
the neighborhood of $4,000, and when.
Princeton plays Yale there the stands
are sure to present a beautiful sight.

! The Federal Leaguers kept their
word They said they would not
have any peace offerings to make at
| their two-day meeting in New York,
and they didn't make any. They
said they would listen to peace me-
gotiations, but that they were not
seeking peace. They admitted that
peace had been discussed between
representatives OF the Outlaws" and
representativ of the regulars, y
but they declared that not a single

Feds are surely gamesters or bold
buffers. President Gilmore talks
like a man who was we'll satisfied
with himself, and who was content
to go along with his league the

lures to fall back on and are not
dependent on what they make out

backed by baseball men who must

game. That is where the outlaws
win win in the long run if they
stick. They don't need the money
